HomeBound

In the heartfelt conclusion of Homebound Season 2, we get in touch with self-care and love. How do we show up for ourselves and others? What does quality self-care look, and not look like? What are the impactful ways that we have shown, or been shown love in our lives? Listen up and listen in as our intergenerational community authentically share their experiences with love in its many permutations and their discoveries on the journey to self-care. And it is truly a journey, a constant journey, one that is beautifully explored by the intergenerational voices in this episode. We hope you'll find something useful for yourself along the way.
