Re-centering, Renewing, and Refreshing in the New Year with Audra DiPadova

The Yes Collective Podcast with Justin Wilford, PhD

EPISODE #62 - Hello 2023! Welcome to our first podcast of the new year! All January long, the Yes Collective is focused on ideas, feelings, and acts around renewal. For us, the beginning of 2023 is not so much about starting something novel but of renewing, refreshing, and remembering our deepest commitments in life.

We think that everyone, in their own core inner knowing, can feel these deep commitments and knows that they’ve been there all along, even when we were distracted and couldn’t hear this inner knowing. So as we kick off 2023, we’re diving headfirst into a new year renewal with practices, ideas, and conversations that help us re-center our mental, emotional, and spiritual health by renewing our deepest commitments in life.

In this episode, co-hosts Jenny Walters and Justin Wilford talk with Yes Collective co-founder Audra DiPadova about the amazing things happening this year at Yes Collective. We also talk about what we learned in 2022 and want to keep going in 2023, and then we talked about what we want to renew in his new year. We chop it up, we get real, we give you our one-word mantras for 2023. You’re gonna love every bit of it, so buckle up and enjoy!
