The First Winter

What this episode covers

This offering comes from the very beginning, before memory and before story. It speaks to the moment when something familiar disappears long before we have language for loss. For me, it was my first winter, the first sense of absence, the first ache I carried without knowing why.Many of us have known a loneliness we couldn’t explain. A quiet heaviness in the chest. A sense that something was missing before we ever understood what it was. This piece is a doorway into that place. It is for anyone who has ever felt outside of belonging, anyone who carries a wound they learned to live around.If you’ve ever held a feeling you couldn’t name, or a longing that never found its place, this is for you.Thank you for listening and for giving this work a place inside your inner world. It means more than you know.Every week I share a new private audio on The Place Within, my members only podcast on Substack. These are my deeper offerings, holding spoken word, reflections, insights and the quieter truths that do not live anywhere else.You can also find my guided practices, somatic journeys and healing songs on Insight Timer, along with courses created to support your own return to wholeness.
