Spirituality, Loss, and Gratitude ft. Meaghan
May 4, 202101:29:25Tap to summarizeToday is a very special episode because we have our first ever guest on the pod!!! I invited my friend from college, Meaghan, to speak because she’s one of the rarest people I know. You’ll see why once you listen. On this episode, Meaghan gives us an introduction to spirituality, opens up about a recent family loss (*trigger warning*), living in the present, and even draws a few angel cards for us. I always leave my conversations with Meaghan on a higher vibration and I hope you have the chance today to feel that too. ~Lauren Instagram: @ydgs.podcast Email: ydgspodcast@gmail.com Music: Dreams - Bensound https://www.bensound.com Support by RFM - NCM: https://bit.ly/2xGHypM

In today’s episode we discuss The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying, an international bestselling memoir written by Bronnie Ware一a woman who spent the majority of her professional career caring for patients in their last stages of life.

Feb 23, 202100:03:01Tap to summarizeHi guys, Lauren here. Sometimes when Rachel and I feel burned out from life, our recordings end up as therapy sessions that are too personal to post. This is a short clip from one of those recordings, and I thought Rachel’s words were too relatable to NOT share with you! No intro. No outro. Enjoy this short bonus episode. Love to you all.
