Does the winter in your hair match the spring in your step? We know, of course, that we can't pray the gray away -- but can we embrace it or even enjoy it? In this episode we discuss going gray and what it might mean, physically, mentally and spiritually, to do so. Whether you are doing it slowly and naturally, seeking out the help of a skilled stylist to make an overnight shift, not doing it at all, or approaching this from somewhere in the middle -- you know, that gray area -- this podcast will encourage you and give you something to think about.
