Together we discuss the idea of leaning into the depth of what is really important to you currently— which could be napping</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">or</span></em> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">jumping into a passion project. What is</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">your</span></em> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">soul’s message? We also chat about writing and how it can be a powerful tool for healing. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode you’ll hear:</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br /></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Reform Your Inner Mean Girl</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">: why Amy decided to co-author the book (5:00)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Don’t let your inner mean girl beat you up about what you are doing or not during this time of crisis (7:00)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The stress response and the antidote to the stress response; the relaxation response (9:00)</span></li> <li style="font-w
