While traveling through Eastern Europe, I learned about a history marked by war, occupation, and decades without liberation — and how community, connection, and resilience carried people forward.
Coming home, I couldn’t ignore the parallels to what many of us are feeling now:
extreme weather, violence, and the sense that nothing we do makes a difference.
This episode is about remembering that:
• History moves in cycles
• Liberation takes time
• And kindness — even when it feels small — is powerful
We may not control everything, but we do control how we show up for one another.
