All of us have hard feelings that need somewhere to go — frustration, resentment, grief, the anxiety that just sits there and won't quite leave. And if you're anything like me, finding a reliable way to process any of it doesn't always come naturally. We push through, or we vent to someone who didn't necessarily sign up for it, or we just wait for the feeling to pass on its own. And sometimes it does. But sometimes it doesn't, and it just kind of settles in.

This week's guest is Kim Christensen, a published writer and master's graduate in creative writing who has spent her career helping people find their voice — even people who never thought of themselves as someone who does that sort of thing.

In this episode, you'll hear:

✏️ The surprising research on what just two minutes of a simple daily practice can do for your physical health — and why the numbers are bigger than you'd expect

✏️ Why the most healing version of this practice has absolutely nothing to do with being good at it

✏️ The one question Kim says you can answer today, even if you have no plan and no idea where to start

So if you've been carrying something heavy lately and you're not quite sure where to put it, I hope this episode can offer a tool that can help.
