Staying Power 08 - 21 - 24 Too Valuable To Be Lost

Alternative Talk- 1150AM KKNW

Episode 037: "Too Valuable to be Lost?" A common refrain these days is the fear of "losing oneself" or not being able to "find" oneself.

This week, building off of a poignant share made on Ashley's social media, she and JD discuss what it means to be "lost", why it produces so much fear, and why "found" is a much different experience than we often expect. In the end, we need not fear either place - or the places in between! To read for yourself any of the articles discussed in this episode, visit the links below! The Key to a Good Life?
