About this episode

The episode features a discussion with members of The Refuge about finding pleasure in community and the importance of relational healing.

Today, four special guests from The Refuge join our hosts for a conversation on finding pleasure in community. Our guests share a bit about what drew them to The Refuge and the transformations they’ve undergone as they work towards showing up with authenticity, curiosity, and flexibility. They discuss how relational wounds require relational healing, and how an ideal community will both meet our needs and feel good in our bodies. Learn more about your ad choices.
