“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” Great advice, unless you’ve lived long enough to know that not every hardship can be transformed into something sweet. Some things get better and some things become part of the life you have to keep living. And that changes the conversation about, well, everything. This warm, emotionally intelligent show explores it all, but through the lens of people who are learning to build meaningful and peaceful lives around circumstances that may never change. Hosted by pharmacist and therapist, Dr. Lisa Peña, this is not a self-help podcast. We don't need more advice for an imaginary perfect life. We need better conversations about the lives we're actually living. Welcome to Loving Lemons. Full Episodes every Tuesday and 10 min Lemon Slice Episodes every Friday. Subscribe, Follow, and Join the community on the Loving Lemons Substack.
