When grief feels overwhelming, what might happen if you trusted the small, alive nudges in your heart? In this episode, I sit with Day Schildkret — author, artist, teacher behind Morning Altars — as he shares how loss, nature, ritual, and impermanence guided him into creating art, books, and a global movement rooted in meaning.
In this episode you'll learn:
How Day used morning altars and impermanent art in nature to metabolize grief and invite beauty back into his life.
Why rituals and marking time are essential for healing, rest, and creative flow.
What it took to transform an improbable idea into Morning Altars — bestselling books, practitioner trainings, and meaningful community.
How to maintain integrity, spirit, and boundaries in business when the external pressure to hustle is constant.
Ways to cultivate daily, weekly, even seasonal practices that help you return — to your inspiration, your values, and your truest self.
