1. The Grass Gets Greener

2. Everything is workable

This podcast examines how every experience, every situation, and every moment in life is an opportunity to work with our mind. The show’s host, Kaitlyn Hatch, speaks with a different guest each week. In May of 2019, she spoke with Stevie Croisant, the founder of We Are HER, about communities of healing. Another favorite episode is Self Discovery with Shay Huff (we love Shay!). Shay discusses her own story battling addiction and recovery.
