Season 2, Episode 4
“Shedding and Unraveling”
Of Dirt and Wildflowers: A Podcast
Hosted by Kylee Jean Marshall
In today’s episode, “Shedding and Unraveling,” we will diginto the dirt of life to better understand the that in order to make room for new growth, for any growth at all, we must shed. We must clear. We must allow there to be possibility.
I don’t know if I realized what was happening until it hadalready happened – this shedding that left me both raw and also floating, free. Maybe I didn’t know it was happening because what was happening felt like complete destruction and how can destruction and devastation and loss feel likeanything other than ember weight, like sable darkness. But it was there all along, in the shedding and the unraveling, in the clearing out and the cleansing, in the pruning. It was there – it takes one hell of a fire for a phoenix to grow wings from the flames. It requires a clearing – we must create clearings in our lives – prune away all that attaches us to a season passed, past – in order to make space, make room for the impending bloom.

I truly believe in the power of journaling and its power to help us in making personal connections and in creating meaning to help us grow. Below are connected journaling prompts fortoday’s episode.
1. Take time to reflect on a moment when you felt devastatedby loss, by something outside of your control. How has this moment shaped you and altered the way you live everyday life?
2. What things could you prune from your everyday life thatwould make space for more joy?
3. What brings you joy that you currently feel like you don’t have time or space for? How can you choose to make space and time for those things?
Be well! Love you, my friends.
