Description:
In this solo episode, Fallon explores what it truly means to hold space — especially within the worlds of dance, aerial, and performance art. Drawing from her own experiences with grief, loss, and creative healing, she offers perspective on presence, compassion, and the magic that happens when we stop trying to fix and start simply being.
Released just after Samhain and Día de los Muertos, this episode honors the thin veil between worlds and the importance of supporting one another through the cycles of life, death, and rebirth.
