NEW EPISODE! As human beings, we will cause harm. Maybe even the same harm, multiple times, before we completely change to a new way of responding or acting. On the flip side, we will also be harmed by humans. Maybe multiple times. How do we navigate harm, repair and correction in a way that helps us maintain relationships and continue building community? Karen and Lynn share ways that they have learned, and continue learning, prioritizing relationships.

**This is NOT a black or white topic. Every individual is giving choice in relationship. We introduce this subject as a way to let go of all or nothing with relationships and step into the vulnerability of repair and correction.

NEW EPISODE: Have you seen all of the posts on social media asking us to finish the year "strong?" It's almost as if they have lived on another planet for 2025?! This year has been extremely challenging and rather than force ourselves to "push through it," what if we took another approach? Join Karen and Lynn as they offer up another idea. One that honors where we are and space to provide what we really need.

NEW EPISODE! What would it look like to be fully aware of your emotions, your internal response to them, as well as the response of others around you? This is what it means to put emotions into practice and integrate this vital piece of our human experience into our everyday lives. It is something that Real Vibes Only has been sharing about for years, and yet it is an uncomfortable reality when our social conditioning and resulting "inner voice" tell us not to. Join Lynn and Karen as they share how they find ways to put emotions into practice each day.

NEW EPISODE: All human beings experience grief and it is natural to experience it with any change or loss, large or small. Grief is as unique as our own fingerprint and we decide how we define it and what support is most helpful. Join Tina and Lynn as they share their own experiences with grief and the discomfort of allowing it to unfold naturally.

NEW EPISODE! Our world is rapidly changing and can often feel like being inside of a snow globe, where everything is shaken up every time things begin to settle. Feeling overwhelmed? Join Lynn and Special Guest Lacey as they share their personal journeys and practical tips for balancing community care with inner growth during this time of change. (Note: Thank you Lacey for being real with us, as our dear friend Karen rests and recovers from surgery over the next few weeks.)

NEW EPISODE! Life is hard and people are struggling. This is a fact and it is a normal human response to the events happening around us ... in our communities, our country and the world. As the attempts by systems to dehumanize people get louder and more frequent in an age of endless information, it can be a heavy lift to hold empathy for the ever-increasing harm and pain happening around us. Join Karen and Lynn as they share why empathy is our superpower against destructive systems and how it is the foundation for creating the world we hope for.

NEW EPISODE: Systems of oppression thrive in environments that keep us separate, feeling different and "othering" people. The reality? We are all connected. Resisting the divisive nature of our world requires us to reconnect with the humans around us and hear who they really are. Each person has a story and connecting with curiosity and compassion helps us to understand how they came to understand the world. Join Karen and Lynn as they talk through the isolation, lack of belonging and differentness many are feeling and embracing connection as the antidote. Disclaimer: This does not mean that we tolerate abuse, oppression or violence. Ever.

NEW EPISODE! In our attempts to find support, often we are told that "we are keeping you safe" when forced treatment or psychiatric interventions are put into place. But who are the systems really keeping safe? Join Karen and Lynn as they unpack the term “safety” and name the harm being done by hierarchal systems that look to protect the organization rather than honestly hear what support the person is asking for.
