  • 💟 Wobbly & Wild The Violet Thread of Pride

    💟 Wobbly & Wild The Violet Thread of Pride
    Jun 28 2025
    On this day, 56 years ago, the Stonewall Inn uprising ignited a movement.

    Sparked by a police raid and fueled by decades of oppression, queer folks—many of them trans women of color—fought back and lit the fire of LGBTQ+ resistance that still burns today. In honor of that courageous stand, we’re releasing the final two episodes of our Pride series.

    These stories aren’t just celebration—they’re remembrance, reflection, and a call to keep showing up.

    More about the Stonewall Riots.

    So… Anticipation or anxiety? Depends on the shoes you wear to the dance. 💃🏽🟣 In this whimsical, wise finale, James gives us a front-row seat to the emotional seesaw of waiting—where one side says “what if” and the other says “let’s go!” From feathered metaphors (yes, again) to bike ramps, bravery, and birds that just won’t quit, we explore the thin line between dread and dream. It’s about choosing to show up, even with shaky wings. It’s about trusting that what’s ahead could be gorgeous—not grim. Violet reminds us that worry is a pigeon, but anticipation? She’s a peacock.
    So fluff your feathers, pick your path, and lean into the lovely unknown. 💟🕊️

    🎧 Listen now and fall wildly in love with the future.

    Now… You’ve been meaning to start it. Finish it. Do the thing. Indigo sees you. 💜⚡

    This episode tackles that sneaky static that makes us freeze, fumble, or fiddle with our Post-Its instead of our passions. James brings a big ol’ blend of humor, heart, and physics metaphors (hi, Newton!) to show how we turn stuckness into stunning momentum.

    From perfectionism to procrastination, we smash the shame and celebrate the sacred little "boop" that gets us moving. Kinetic energy, baby—it's a vibe. No more waiting for the perfect moment. This is the moment.

    So toss your to-do list guilt and join the joy juggernaut. 🌀✨

    🎧 Listen now and go from static to stellar.

    💙 Misty & Mighty The Blue Thread of Pride
    Jun 20 2025
    Got the blues? Good. You’re in the right place. 💙🌧️

    This deeply moving episode holds space for sadness—and dares to find the shimmer in the shadow. James takes us on a soul-swirling journey from grief to grace, exploring what it means to mourn, to ache, to feel too much... and still hope. It’s soft. It’s strong. It’s your favorite sad song wrapped in a warm, wise hug.

    From losses we speak to those we don’t, from lonely nights to laughter peeking through, this is your gentle reminder that feeling deeply is not weakness—it’s wonder.

    So grab your tissues and your courage. There’s light in the lake, and we’re diving in. 💧🕊️🎧 Listen now and let hope do her thing.
