About this episode

This episode explores the practice of holding multiple truths and emotional maturity in the face of life's complexities.

Some things cannot be resolved. They can only be held. This episode is about paradox as a practice. Not a philosophy, not a concept, but a real and living skill for an era that is pulling us in every direction at once. We move through what it means to stop forcing clarity where life is asking for capacity, and why emotional maturity might be the most important work of this particular moment in human history. At the heart of this episode is a deeply personal story of receiving the devastating news of the loss of a friend, whose life was taken. Devi shares how this impacted her and what practices she reached for when she was carrying something so fresh and heavy, all while showing up for a room full of women excited to deepen into their lives and purpose.
