From Where There's Smoke by Brett Gajda and Nick Jaworski

About this episode
The episode explores the concept of surrender in the face of uncertainty through personal stories and reflections.
It's our first new Where There's Smoke episode in two years! Pliny the Elder said, "The only certainty is that nothing is certain." In a world where nothing is certain and so much is out of our control, what options do we really have? Should we fight? Do we give up? Or is there something else? In this episode we move from a tragic accident, through quicksand, and into a very personal story from Brett about his Mom - all while exploring the power of surrender.
