What is your relationship like to death? Is it something you avoid or something you embrace? In this episode I share some lessons as well as a Mexican folktale that I recently learned from author, poet, and psychoanalyst Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estès. In this work she talks about the Life, Death, Life cycle, and how things need to die in order to be reborn into something new & more aligned. We can’t have life without death. We can’t have death without life. They’re interdependent. Sometimes we hold onto things way past their expiration date whether it’s ideas, relationships, careers, passions, beliefs, etc. And in holding onto it, we don’t give it a chance to regenerate into something deeper and wiser. We fear that once we let it die, it’s gone forever. And that’s just not true.
