Mark and I discuss all of the crazy things that have changed since my birthday party March 9. You are invited to the FB Secret Zen Spot group. I ponder how and why chips have come back in our isolated lives. Our dance music is a wonderful Spanish guitar tune called Los Cabos by Steve Glotzer.

I’m laughing while Dawny and I are chatting about intuitive eating via Skype.

Podcast Recap

Why do I always want to isolate and what can I do about it? Alen recommends via text a great movie that’s on Netflix about voice acting and I wonder if we shouldn’t share cool movies and books on the show? Besides supporting the show financially with cups of coffee you can also support it with likes, reviews and ratings so new brave companions can find us. Stéfanie from Quebec supports us with her comments on Day 74. I get encouragement for my singing and acting with comments from Sandy, Cheryl and Stéfanie. Fionna calls the bravery hotline with her opinion. Helen cheers me up with another joke on Foolish Fun. As an experiment, Dawny and I Skype about Intuitive Eating.

Hot weather, drooping trees, dry riverbed with boulders.

I’m starting to smile as I go on my way to tell today’s stories.
