Episode 2 | On: Aliveness

from SUNDAYS + OTHER MUSINGS · host Brandie Freely

Welcome back! Episode No. 2 of Sundays, The Podcast is yours. I heard from some of you who listened to last week’s episode on your morning walks or with a warm cup of tea — and the visuals of that just lit me up. This week I’m talking on a topic that isn’t uncommon: The question of whether or not you’re really living. Let me just tell you that you can never be asked this question enough. Why? Because the moments that we’re really present are fleeting. And then we’re right back on autopilot. So I’d suggest listening to this with a notepad and pen handy. Just in case some idea of how you can return to your own life — and experience real aliveness — come up for you. Thank you for listening and subscribing. I’ve been cranking out all the things in this season, because I feel energized and charged to do so. There is a great need in this world right now, for things we can hold onto. Ways we can anchor. You know? If this pod feels like that to you? Please share it, restack it, engage (comment), etc. I want to remind you of some other ways we can be in community: My book, Sundays + Other Musings is available wherever books are sold online! My online community, The Free School, is rocking and rolling for our Fall Semester. This week, we kick off our cohorts: Short Story and Study + Expand. It’s not too late to join in! Upgrade to The Expand Plan to see and register for cohorts. And PROMPTED, my latest daily offering. I’m in love with Prompted, because I know what writing can do for us. Upgrade to PAID on Substack to receive PROMPTED in your inbox every morning. Thanks again for being here. I hope you enjoy! Brandie This is a public episode.
