It Gets Bitter with Thyme
Manage episode 286382811 series 2815195
Sarah + Alysia sit down to talk about a specific phrase used mainly as an emotional cushion. We often feel the need to respond “it gets better” when our friends are telling us hardships - when really we just need to sit with them in the darkness and remember that listening with empathy is powerful. They also explain why this episode was recorded multiple times + sit down to Spill some Whine with Alysia’s mother.
