Ep. 143 | Why Feeling Out of Place in a Room Full of People You Love Is More Common Than You Think

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

Today's episode is a vulnerable one... YAY! I had a hard Mother's Day and I'm talking about it.  Susan Cain writes in Bittersweet that our longing is the great gateway to belonging — and that if we could honor sadness a little more we might see it as the bridge we need to connect with each other.  Today's episode is about having a hard day in a room full of people you love. And about not pretending you aren't. Question to carry into your day: What are you trying to smile through right now that might actually deserve to be felt?  Want to chat about working together?
