Episode Details

Twenty days before summer.

A few weeks before my fifty-second trip around the sun.

And today, while making Cuban bread, I accidentally remembered something I had spent years trying to learn.

The purpose of life may not be improvement.

The purpose of life may be participation.

In this deeply personal episode, Jess explores what happens after survival, after healing, after boundaries, after self-parenting, and after learning not to punish yourself for being human.

What comes next?

The answer may be simpler than we think.

Warm bread.

Cuban coffee.

A shade tree.

A deck of cards.

And finally learning how to join your own life while it's happening.
