It's good to be back! This week, we're discussing the importance of communing with our elders, parents, and parental figures.  In this episode, we're listening to bits of advice from the grandmother and mother of China Aleisse (Floating Key creator), and reflect on what can be achieved when we embrace the guidance from those who have come before us.
