My Inner Knowing

12/28/2025

Our nervous systems are always in conversation—with the world, with nature, and with each other.

Regulation can look like moss and water.

Like laughter shared in front of a waterfall.

Like standing at the edge of something vast and remembering: I belong here.

Healing doesn’t always happen in therapy rooms.

Sometimes it happens in connection, in beauty, and in moments that bring us back into our bodies.

This is inner knowing, practiced.

What happens when the hardest parts of family life go unspoken?

In this first conversation of our Conversations We Needed With Our Parents Growing Up, we explore what it’s like to grow up in silence about mental health—the confusion, shame, and self-blame that often follow, and the longing for honesty that could have made all the difference.

We talk about why parents may have avoided these conversations, what children make up in the absence of clarity, and how we can begin to shift the cycle now by creating more openness, language, and emotional safety for ourselves and our families.

These are tender topics, and they won’t all fit into 10 or 15 minutes, but we hope this gives you a place to start—and permission to keep going.

“It’s hard to feel confident in the world when no one showed you how it works.”

A listener shared how disorienting it felt to enter adulthood without guidance on the basics — from tipping and budgeting to navigating unfamiliar situations. Theresa and Walker reflect on how easy it is to assume everyone else knows something you don’t, and how quickly that turns into shame or avoidance.

They explore the deeper ache beneath that experience: wanting to slow down, learn without judgment, and feel capable again. Together, they unpack how early experiences shape the way we approach new skills as adults — and offer a gentler way forward rooted in curiosity, clarity, and patience.

This conversation is for anyone who has ever felt lost in the practical parts of life — and a reminder that support is something we all deserve, no matter when it arrives.

Last night, under the winter solstice sky, we gathered to slow down.

To listen.

To notice the quiet voice inside that keeps persisting—even in the dark.

We didn’t try to fix it or force it louder.

We simply gave it space.

And somehow, that was enough. ✨

The longest night reminds us that light doesn’t disappear—it waits.

Today we honor the Winter Solstice,
the quiet turning point, where the longest night completes its work and the light begins its return.

We loosen our grip on what has weighed us down,
setting it gently into the dark, and we notice the small fractures, the places where light already knows how to enter.

Preparations are complete.

We stand at the threshold, waiting for the arrival of our fellow travelers, ready to walk together toward what is being born.

Several months ago, we asked a simple question:
What’s one conversation you wish your parents had with you growing up?

The responses stayed with us. They were honest, emotional, and deeply human. Many named things that were never spoken, but still shaped who they became.

This series is our response. Conversations We Needed With Our Parents Growing Up explores the conversations so many of us didn’t get around emotional safety, shame, boundaries, repair, and the longing to be seen and known. These short episodes are an invitation to slow down, reflect, and notice what still lives in you.

You don’t have to be a parent to be here.
Just someone who’s ever wished for a different kind of conversation.

This month, we’re curling up with Wintering by Katherine May, a gentle invitation to notice the quieter seasons within us.

One of the things Katherine May does so beautifully in Wintering is remind us that these seasons, these pauses, the slowing, these internal shifts, are not failures. They are invitations. Invitations into more compassion, more honesty, more alignment, and deeper connection with the parts of ourselves we tend to overlook when life moves too fast.

❄️ A read for anyone navigating a hard season, craving rest, or learning to trust the ebb and flow of their own life.

The holidays have a way of amplifying everything—our tenderness, our history, our hope, and the parts of us that still feel easily overwhelmed. If this season brings up old patterns or leaves you bracing for certain interactions, you’re not doing anything wrong. You’re human.

Our Healthier Relationships Course was created to help you meet those moments with more clarity and steadiness. Inside are tools for communicating with intention, setting boundaries without guilt, and staying rooted even when emotions run high.

We’re offering 25% off for the holiday season. A thoughtful gift for yourself or someone who’s ready for a different kind of relationship in the new year.

December always feels like its own kind of in-between — one foot still in the year we lived, the other already wandering toward what’s next.

This month’s blog is a gentle reflection on what 2025 taught us: that reflection is navigation, our symptoms are messengers, presence is a doorway, and we’re far more supported than we often feel. It’s also a look at where we’re walking in 2026 — retreats, community dinners, long-distance journeys, and deeper conversations about both living and dying.

If you’re feeling the tug to walk into the new year with more honesty, more courage, and a little more self-kindness…you’re not alone.

“Your life matters, sometimes it only takes one voice to help you remember.”

In this conversation, Theresa and Walker sit down with educator and author Hal Eisenberg to explore what it means to wake up to your own life after years of survival, fragmentation, or feeling disconnected from who you are. Hal shares the moments that reshaped him — including a near-fatal accident at 17 — and how those experiences opened a lifelong path of service, awareness, and higher consciousness education.

They talk about growing up without safety, the patterns we create to protect ourselves, the shift from “villains and victims” to seeing life as a teacher, and the practices that help us reconnect with presence, compassion, and inner knowing. Hal reflects on music, nature, breath, community, and the slow process of learning to love yourself without needing external validation.

This episode offers a grounded and hopeful reminder that every experience carries wisdom — and that your story still has places to unfold.
