[link removed] [[link removed]] Listen to United Bodies—a new podcast about the lived experience of health, from Ms. Studios, on Apple Podcasts [[link removed]] + Spotify [[link removed]] .
On the final episode of United Bodies, we’re talking about accessing joy amidst the deepest of suffering, amidst any circumstance even while staring down our own mortality—because ultimately, that is true freedom. Choosing and experiencing joy can be difficult for so many reasons—be it our knack for comparison or shame, or our resistance or fear of embodiment and presence. Our guest today, poet Andrea Gibson, proves that navigating these forces are worth it to experience the fullness that joy can bring to our lives.
We hope you'll listen, subscribe, rate and review today!
