What is occupying your time and energy? Do these things actively contribute to your life? And if not - how do you begin to shift course when the investment runs deep?

Using the lens of the sunk cost fallacy, Buffy reflects on how challenging it can be to release something we've poured ourselves into. She posits that staying out of habit, history, or fear of change can block the natural evolution of our lives.

Inspired by the seasonal shift of the summer solstice, Buffy invites listeners to consider what needs to be brought into the light—and what might need to be gently folded into the dark. She introduces the concept of becoming a hollow bone—an active practice of clearing space, listening deeply, and allowing truth to move through you without resistance.

Changing your mind isn’t failure. It’s alignment. It’s listening. It’s choosing now over nostalgia. And it’s often the bravest thing we can do. Let this episode be a companion if you’re feeling the urge to pivot, release, or begin again.

Buffy opens this week’s episode by talking about the part vs. the whole; how, in times of great change, we usually don’t get to understand why something is happening to us. Meaning, and wisdom, arrive slowly and often in small moments.

This episode is an invitation to make your life smaller. To eliminate what’s not necessary, reject what doesn’t truly feed and nourish you, so that what is beautiful in your life can be amplified.

Buffy tells stories of farm walks, picnic table run-ins, and more, and invites listeners into spaciousness and trust - even, and especially if, things are feeling messy.

This episode is an invitation to stay tuned.

In this episode, Buffy explores the juxtaposition between belonging and dissonance. She talks about the way communities can lighten the load and encourage bravery and belonging - as well as the pitfalls of what happens when we only surround ourselves with what feels familiar. Buffy challenges us to get curious about what is not like us through stories of post-car crashes, sheer tops, and unexpected moments of friction.

Growth often comes from being around people who don’t think like us. How do we strike the balance between enough similarity to feel at home, and enough difference to stretch and challenge us?
