  • Choice Will Help
    Jan 26 2026

    Buffy begins this episode with the story of Holocaust survivor Edith Eva Eger, and the choices Eger made in the face of unimaginable trauma. While trauma and circumstance may be outside of our choice, this conversation explores the agency we have in how we met them. She differentiates between spiritual bypassing and the brave practice of placing our attention on what is true and beautiful, even when pain is present. This episode is an invitation to curate your inner landscape, because, when we do, the life we long for becomes more reachable.

    In today’s episode of Things That Will Help, Buffy tells a story shaped by chance, luck, and the quiet intelligence of the universe.
