Making Peace with the Past

Published: July 15, 2021, 10 a.m.

Hey, there! I kick this episode off with a tea talk (hibiscus tea in a Museo Del Prado mug) and a life update regarding vacation, college applications, and my occupations. I introduce the topic of making peace with the past through context and the structure for the episode. Then, I talk about how no decision is perfect by sharing stories, talking about destiny, explaining how regret won’t solve anything, and realising that the universe has a way of teaching us lessons. Next, I explore the art of acceptance: how time heals all wounds, how talking can help, and making the most of what you have. Afterward, I think about letting go: grudges that get in the way, paralysis, and how this is momentary. I wrap up with conclusions and my faves in backpacks and music.
