Episode 21: We're all f*cked so follow your heart
Manage episode 300829760 series 2950809
In this conversation, Jacob and Scott talk about the importance of honoring your soul, despite the fears and insecurities that push you to do otherwise, despite a lifetime of conditioning and the expectations of others, despite the ease with which we can choose to pretend and play small. They talk about developing our capacity to listen — to nature, to our inner-beings, to the mysteries and miracles all around us. The friends reflect on this time in our reality, when they and many across the globe are choosing to honor what’s true for them, as scary and difficult as that can be. They talk about energy and momentum and how much sense things can make when we start paying attention to our choices and noticing what those choices create.
