Morgan shares how a simple pool moment with her daughter cracked open decades of memory, connection, and joy. What starts as a story about a vacation unfolds into a powerful reflection on the wisdom of water, the challenges of parenting a deeply feeling child, and the quiet resilience required to keep showing up in the world. Tina and Morgan explore how grief, presence, and reciprocity with nature can guide us back to ourselves, even when life feels overwhelming.
