Ep21 | Finding Peace in Futility & Accepting What We Can't Change

Episode #21

Serenity to accept the things we can't change, and wisdom to know the difference -- this is what we're talking about here today, along with tools and perspective to help you connect with that awareness and (eventual) serenity. In this episode, G employs an example of one of her kids and a mac & cheese tantrum to illustrate our varying responses to the anger we express when we hit a wall of impossibility, and we discuss ways to honour those parts, our other parts, and the bigger picture.
