“Nature always has the most beautiful invitations to us if we are willing to slow down and listen. I'm coming to realize that patience is such a form of self-love and self-care. And when I'm patient with myself and with others and with the world, it feels gentle and it feels loving, and it feels safe.”

Discover the unexpected strength that lies in the quiet act of patience. Our hosts, Jessica Armstrong, and McKenzie Raymond, take us through the layered experiences of embracing patience, a virtue that can profoundly reshape your sense of self and your interactions with the world. They share intimate stories and reflections that highlight the role of patience in nurturing self-awareness, calming reactivity, and deepening our bonds with those around us.

By embracing stillness and trusting nature’s rhythms, Jessica and McKenzie reveal how patience becomes a cornerstone for fostering leadership, fortifying relationships, and bolstering self-esteem. They delve into the importance of winter's introspective call, recognizing it as a crucial period for personal growth, all while navigating the complexities of our societal drive for constant action during the holidays.

This episode is an invitation to a winter of the mind, where patience blooms into self-care and self-love, preparing us for the reawakening of spring. Join the conversation, and if it resonates, share this moment of connection with someone special.
