About this episode

“Just because I’m spinning in circles doesn’t mean I’m dizzy. Just because I’m sitting still doesn’t mean I’m not busy..." this Matthew McConaughey quote struck a chord with Lily this week, and triggered today's episode surrounding emotional burnout, the winter blues, and compartmentalization. Lily get's real on the mic to discuss her current emotional middle ground state, and how she's handling the stress of confronting feelings.
