Ep. 45 | The Wisdom of Winter

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

In today's episode, I'm talking about the winter seasons of our lives — those moments that feel dark, uncertain, or stripped down to the essentials.  I share a story about supporting a friend who is in a difficult moment in her business, and the unexpected wisdom that arrived as autumn leaves fell across my windshield.  We explore the quiet power of winter, the truth that every season holds meaning, and how resurgence is always preparing beneath the surface. Question to carry into your day: Where in your life might you be in a winter season, and can you soften into the possibility that something is gathering strength beneath the surface, preparing for its resurgence?
