About this listen

Lorelle talks about her experience grappling with the tension between rest and capitalism. In spite of her daily reminders to her patients and loved ones to practice rest and self-care, she often struggles to extend the same generosity to herself. Lorelle articulates the question: who am I when I’m not in service? Freddie empathizes with this question and – spoiler alert – together they come to the conclusion that finding balance in capitalism is literally impossible.

ABOUT OUR GUEST: Lorelle Saxena is a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, a parent doing her best to break cycles, and a committed member of a two-person ukulele band. She would like to remind you to drink more water.

Theme music is "HEATWAVE HEARTBREAK" by freddie blooms.
