In the second part of their conversation from last week, Jenn and Tava share a powerful poem, 'WILD' by Jennifer Jurlando, that speaks to the wildness and resilience within us - including the need to integrate both our pain and our joy. The hosts discuss a woman's brave journey of normalizing the post-mastectomy body and how we can use our pain and traumas as fuel for change, emphasizing the importance of integration over just moving on. Things lighten up as listeners learn of Jenn's new spirit teacher in the form of a small nature spirit figurine with a big energy! The discussion includes the very interesting way she came to be with Jenn, and her influence in her life since. This mighty nature spirit lends her voice and grounding energies to the closing song.
