Episode Notes

In the season finale for Braving the Waves, Mikaela reads a poem about the 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 method, which is a grounding technique meant to support you through stress, anxiety, and panic.

Here's an excerpt of the poem (the full written & visually formatted versions can now be found & read at mikbrew.substack.com!):

I see a pair of eyes—one gold & one white— among a blue field of birds & unharvestable cotton. I stretch & slip between two bolls until my stem is parallel; until I can bend it like a back & let them stitch to it, helping me fly as if my leaves were feathers.
