In this podcast episode, I delve into my life-long journey of transforming my relationship with the winter season. Once dreading the cold and darkness, I have learned to reframe this time of year as as an opportunity for deep self-connection by asking myself the question "what is this season BEST for?" 

Tune in to hear me reflect on my past, including my struggles with childhood fears and postpartum experiences of grappling with fear of the dark. I emphasize the importance of how meeting ourselves in the dark fosters self-trust.

Towards the end of the episode, I share my own delightfully practical ways to enjoy winter, such as taking a social media break, engaging in cozy activities, and reconnecting with my inner light. The episode encourages YOU to reconsider their approach to winter and find joy and meaning in this quieter, darker time of year.
