S6 E5: STOP RESTING SO OTHER PEOPLE CAN STEAL YOUR THUNDER
Listen now
Description
Ahem. We’re back! We rested. And our rest doesn’t look like other people’s rest, but ALSO, we’re finding ourselves resting for VERY different reasons than other people seem to rest, and how we used to rest, which wasn’t very restful at all at all. I realize now that the title might be misleading, that we want you not to rest because while you rest others are stealing your thunder, but almost the opposite? Rest, and then use that energy in ways YOU want to, not the ways that our society deems “productive.” Anyway, that was the most me I’ve been in a while in this intro, and I am also including my instagram and Aimée’s instagram because we sew and draw and knit and snuggle with pets and offspring and share it on insta, and so sharing it with you, too. This transcript is going to be a dumpster fire because we were so excited that we kept talking over each other. (Which partially means AI will never copy us!!!)
