Episode Description

During the Check-In, all three of us are feeling pretty good!
We talk about concerts, music festivals and more.
to skip to the regrets, tune in at 9:12

Shadoe opens up about feeling weird about the grieving process. Her grandmother passed on April 1, 2019; and, five years later, Shadoe is guilting herself over a 'proper way to grieve'.
Sam and Victoria offer great feedback and some solutions to help her find the closure she desires.
Then, Sam opens up about being bullied when he was younger. This has led to an ongoing regret about trusting the people in his corner.
This leads to a conversation about how our inner critic can be louder than many kind voices.
As always, we end the episode with our three breaths of letting go.
