The metaphor of the chrysalis is examined and the process that the caterpillar undergoes reveals that it does not lead to it becoming a better caterpillar, but to becoming a completely different creature entirely.

That leads Deborah and Brenda into a discussion about the therapeutic value of being more vulnerable and recognizing that where we are most wounded is often where our soul is hiding, waiting to emerge.
