Redemption is there in the midst of the grief and tragedy. It does not diminish the difficulty of the grief, but coexists. There is good that happened in 2020, and we can use it to push ourselves forward. Resilience is powerful. Here is where I saw the good in the year that we thought would never end.

In this episode, I sit down with myself and explain where I went, new things I've started since my last episode, and whatever else I felt was necessary to keep while editing this. I can't remember it all. Thanks for being here. Stay tuned for upcoming episodes in the works (for real, I promise) xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox ily

Take It from me, a grad, who did all four years of college. Or don't, thats okay, too! I spent some time figuring out what would have helped those four years and this is the result. No, I will not list them out with the time stamps. Not because I don't want to make this easier for you, but because I'm sick of listening to my own voice. Also,,,,, sound parts? $5 and a slice of pizza? #Iykyk

Did I self-plagarize this one? Maybe, I don't know. I didn't get a grade for either time I did this, so probably not. I think that's how those things work.Here is the "Ted Talk" that I gave during my final leadership retreat in college on Strong Christ-Following Female Leadership, because strong is indeed beautiful. It's not cliche if it's true.(Just to clarify, this is not the original recording of the talk. This podcast did not exist when that happened, honey)

Recorded on the last day of class, I do a little reflecting on this semester, talk about a few memories from my time at Carolina, what is coming next for me after graduation, and what I've been watching during quarantine! It's all over the place, but if you expected anything different, you might want to adjust your expectations

Who are you? Why are you doing this? How many ways can you explain the same thing over and over again? Are you super funny? What is your enneagram number? Is there something happening in our world right now?I will answer all of these questions for you in the introduction for 'hey, rachael,' so you're welcome. I'm really glad you're here. It's a better space with you in it.
