In this final episode, we’re talking about all the ways we send love from afar, both tangible and intangible, through both space and time, in whatever form we have available to us. Thank you for being a part of this journey. Signing off for now and sending our love from afar, Trisha & Justine Featured in this episode: • Sam Castaneda is a high school student from Alberta who is passionate about exploring, equality, and seeing the best in the world.
