In this brief episode, published Christmas Eve 2024, host Liz Ficken breaks down the probability of life existing on earth, and the (un)likelihood of any of us even existing. The reminder is that we are all precious, special, and unique. Our stories are worthy of sharing and may help someone else in a way we couldn't anticipate.
The call to action is this: care for yourself. You're the only one who will get the chance to live with you the entirety of your life, so honor what you need and take good care of yourself now and into the new year.
