I'm starting season 8 of this revamped podcast with the one, the only, the Brittany R Williams! A Sex Doula and Expansion Coach, Brittany facilitates connected, innovative spaces for leaders and visionaries who know there is more than the version of success you see. But today, she's here to talk about tenderness.

I don't know about you, but the word "tenderness" brings up so much for me! So I was excited to talk to Brittany all about:

• What is tenderness, and what led to her exploration of this concept
• The lie of compartmentalization
• The process of integration, and getting to know pain and grief without judgment
• Some of the surprises along the way
• Learning to receive without resentment or overwhelm

(and of course, so much more)

"I think that sometimes when we're trying to compartmentalize and work around, we are so worked up and overwhelmed that we don't realize energetically that other people are feeling that! I found that people were gravitating towards, I guess that honesty, that truth. [...] It resonates. It gives people permission, in a sense, to realize that 'Oh. I can have both these things. I can have success and still feel, and I can understand and experience my pain and still be seen as a professional. Nothing is lost of me, because I'm holding these two truths."
