Welcome back to The Deeper Call podcast.It has been a month since our last episode. And I want to take a moment to let you know that I am putting the podcast on hold, as I've had some health issues surfacing that I need to tend to.In other seasons of my life, I would have overrun my body's need for rest and kept working on this project to the detriment of the podcast and my health. But at this time, I'm coming to terms with the fact that the best thing I can do is pause until I have the energy to bring it back.Creating this podcast and sharing it with you over these last eight months has been a dream come true. Thank you for taking the time to tune in, for sharing your favorite episodes with your friends, and for allowing these conversations to open your hearts and expand your notion of what might be possible for all of us.If you would like to stay in touch while the podcast is on pause, please join me over on The Deeper Call's Substack. With gratitude, Ashley.
