How to Let Go of Survival and Surrender to the Abundant Flow of the Universe
In this episode of A Kind of Meadow, Rhiannon is joined by Tamara Lucas, founder and CEO of myPANDA. They talk about money and the drive to survive and how letting down their guards reveals a deeper source of wisdom rooted in our connection to the universe. Through facing that fear of fragility, they go on an adventure that begins in the void and takes Tamara through a journey of compression and expansion, from stardust to a shooting star. When she finally surrenders to the earth, Tamara discovers that she’s not being buried but planted, and she’s bursting to bloom.
