Saturn’s Return
- “…you know, it, it began for me, I think in terms of really crystallizing. In my early twenties… And so my sense of purpose and calling. From the perspective of wanting people to be free from the perspective of justice, inequality came very at a very, very young age… where your life sort of gets throwing on, on health.” (07:20)

Give room to let the gift breathe
- “Cause some of us ask, you know, do I have to hit rock bottom right before I make the term? And the answer is we don’t have to. Right. Right.
