Episode 406 Graduation Hugs

from Enlighten: Uplift & Inspire · host Dr. Deborah Adamy, PhD., LMSW, LMT

On this week's episode, in this season of college graduations, I highlight something that struck me at my niece's graduation from Skidmore College. In addition to the love and pride I feel toward my niece, and the inspiring speeches given, I was deeply moved by hugs. Not just the typical hugs after the graduation ceremony, offered from proud parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and siblings. Those hugs are magnificent!  I melted when I watched student after student embrace their college president. Without words these hugs from countless students, spoke volumes of the values, worthiness, gratitude and loving support generated on this campus! May this be a tender reminder to give and receive some genuine, nourishing, warm, bear hugs this week! Enjoy the podcast!
