ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Be persistent. Also, let it go. Yes, both. 🐝
Chelsea and BatSheva dive into the paradox of persistence and surrender: the yin and the yang of getting what you want. They've kept their Daily W's going for three years and they're dazzled by the fruits. But BatSheva also admits she's letting things go every single day, and it rarely feels like persistence. Then comes the story that ties it together: a burst pipe, a closed management company, 25 hours without water, and one piece of advice from a friend: "blow up their phone."
We talk about:
- The fruits of persistence: three years of Daily W's and counting
- Holding on and letting go in the same breath
- Guilt-free "unproductive" days, and trusting that what's meant for you won't pass you by
- Persistence in parenting, and the courage to examine your own blind spots
- Book rec: On Her Knees by Regina Thomas Shower, and the Persephone and Demeter story of mother-daughter healing
- Why community matters, and why keeping it in the dark helps it grow
- Being persistent in your offerings, then letting go of the outcome
Tell us: where in your life do you need to be more persistent, and where do you need to let go? We want to hear it.
