S1 E26 - Amber Byers - Squirrels of Wisdom
Writer Amber Byers shares how losing her mother to cancer, which was one of her saddest experiences, actually helped her lighten-up by seeing some of the absurdities with the help of a few squirrels.
Amber and Nancy express gratitude for the suffering that has made them who they are today and now try to learn more from delight rather than pain.
