56: Weekly Planning + Organization with Two Google Calendar Enthusiasts

Hi all! Our intention to cultivate more authenticity on All (Em)bracing sparked the topic for today’s episode! Stagnant seasons are a human experience so many of us share, yet many people [us included!] can be so quick to “fix” those feelings of being stuck. We forget the importance of validating our full emotions by honestly acknowledging the point we are at today with no expectation of “fixing”. In our 55th episode, we discuss how honoring and embracing even the not-so-fun stuck feelings is so healthy + important. As always, we’re rooting for you + hope even one bit of this conversation sparks some encouragement in your soul. Episode fifty-five of our All (Em)bracing Series.
