Hello Renegades! Welcome to season 2! After taking some time off to make some BIG changes in my life, I'm so excited to be back. This season will be a little different as we transition into sharing more queer-focused stories. On this episode, I'll be giving you all some of the background on how I realized I was queer…at the ripe age of 44! I'm excited for the conversation this season, starting with coming out later in life, the fall out of deconstructing the gender binary and fully embracing ourselves throughout the process!

Trigger warning: Today's conversation is around boundaries. If at any point you feel resistance or need some time to process, please skip to the meditation at the end. What happens when we experience push back against our boundaries? How do we stand firm when our boundaries trigger others? Join our host, River B, as they share their experience of boundary setting with family members during the holiday season (spoiler alert: it didn't work out as planned…). This weeks meditation is centered around grounding, releasing and reclaiming our power.

What happens when we realize the ways we have operated in the world aren't working anymore? How are we going to move forward in the world without those ideas and beliefs we held for so long? Join our host, River Bennu, as they deconstruct the conversation around what makes us feel safe.

When it comes to personal and professional growth, where are you struggling? In a capitalist society, the concept of “growth” can drive us to extreme measures. This week we'll discuss the natural cycles of growth and recognizing burn out. Join our host River Bennu (she/they), CYT200 as they share their story of redefining healthy and sustainable growth habits! *A note from River - apologies for the fluctuations in sound quality, but instead of holding this episode to make it “perfect,” I decided to release it with the intention of learning as we grow! I hope you're still able to find something valuable in this weeks episode! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
