The headlines felt relentless, the feed louder than my own thoughts—so I grabbed a paintbrush, hit record, and chose a different kind of response. What followed was part art session, part reckoning: we talk about gun violence and responsibility, the way doomscrolling hijacks our nervous systems, and why joy might be the most subversive habit we can practice right now. I share how a long-overdue painting became a promise kept, how adult playtime repairs the roots that stress frays, and why making something—anything—can be a daily vote for your own agency.
We also open the door to ritual and curiosity. From beginner witchcraft and herbology to chakras, Reiki, and ancestral nudges toward Scotland, I trace how simple practices can pull us out of panic and back into presence. We question edited narratives—comparing the heft of old Bibles to slim modern versions—and land on a radical, practical reading: sacred texts should make us better humans, not meaner ones. If your beliefs don’t widen your compassion, it’s time to revise your practice, not your empathy. Along the way, we laugh about cringe as a birthplace of artistry, tell stories about cheesy cult classics like They Live, and turn a glitter-smeared canvas into proof that joy and grief can sit at the same table.
If you’ve felt stuck in survival mode, this conversation is your invitation to schedule fun, retrain brutal self-talk, and build community that meets honesty with honesty. Come for the catharsis, stay for the small, repeatable moves: five minutes of reading myth, a messy sketch, a quiet breath before the next scroll. Hit play, then share one tiny joy you’ll claim today. And if this resonated, subscribe, leave a review, and pass it to a friend who could use a little light.

Sometimes you gotta be adult in the room to say something. Silence = Death.
