Hosted by Anna Gatmon & Diana Badger.
When life asks us to move forward before we have all the answers, how do we know what to trust? Through the lens of Expansive Living, and in conversation with current astrological themes, we explore what it means to trust a conscious, living world, why certainty isn’t a prerequisite for moving forward, and how trust grows one step at a time.

The Courage to Become Yourself
Hosted by Anna Gatmon & Diana Badger (https://dianabadger.substack.com/).
Fear and self-doubt often arise just as life invites us to become something more. Drawing on current astrological themes alongside stories of fashion modeling, prison work, and following unexpected callings, we explore what it takes to outgrow old identities, take courageous leaps into the unknown, and become a more expansive, life-affirming version of ourselves.

Why I Held On To My Pain For 60 Years [Expanded Edition]
Today, I am sharing an Expanded Edition of one of my most deeply personal essays: ‘Why I Held On To My Pain For 60 Years: When Holding Space For Yourself Deepens How You Hold Space For Others.’
You can find the original article here. (https://www.expansiveliving.world/p/why-i-held-on-to-my-pain-for-60-years) This video version is going to be a bit different. I’m going to read through the full piece, but I’ll also be pausing along the way to share some reflections and deeper thoughts that didn’t make it into the final text.

You Don’t Have to Carry It Alone
Modern life can feel like something we are endlessly trying to manage, fix, or survive alone.
In this video, I explore a practical shift from overwhelm into relationship — a way of meeting your work, your body, your healing, and your daily life as part of a living world that can respond, collaborate, and nourish you back.
I also share a simple Immersive Presence practice you can begin using immediately with one thing you are carrying right now.
And if you’d like to go deeper into the ideas behind this conversation, you can also read the full article: It Doesn’t Have to Be Overwhelming. (https://www.expansiveliving.world/p/it-doesnt-have-to-be-overwhelming)
