  • Moving the Bench Will Help
    Mar 9 2026

    After a difficult week, Buffy shares a story of moving a bench a few feet so it could catch the sunlight, and what this simple shift can mean in our own lives. In a time when you are likely carrying both collective grief and personal grief, how are you taking care of yourself? This episode is an invitation to remember that even small adjustments can let a little more sunlight in.

  • Mantrika Will Help
    Feb 23 2026

    In this episode, Buffy expands on the concept of mantra (a chant, a syllable, a steadying truth) into mantrika, which translates to “little mothers," or the worlds and phrases that we birth into existence daily. What are the words we repeat, consciously or unconsciously, that shape the architecture of our inner and outer worlds? If language creates reality, then each syllable is a seed. This episode is a call to choose your words with clarity, and in doing so, to build your world consciously.

  • Room For the Spark Will Help
    Feb 9 2026

    Buffy had a plan for how she would give birth: what she would wear, where she would be, how it would unfold. It was a lovely plan which did not pan out at all. This is an episode about holding our plans and ideas with a loose grip so we don't miss the primal magic that wants to come through. Buffy tells stories of birthing gowns, Charlotte's Web, and more, to illustrate how having a real-time, unfolding conversation with the alive and breathing world is just as important (and maybe more) than the plans we make.
