Today, we welcome back Logan Barone to delve into the controversial topic of astrology, especially in the context of an evangelical upbringing. We discuss the historical and biblical underpinnings of astrology, contrasting them with the misconceptions held within certain religious communities. The conversation shifts to the significance of the Age of Aquarius, exploring its impact on spiritual awakening, individual divinity, and the shift away from institutionalized religion towards a more personal spiritual experience. To apply these insights, listeners are encouraged to explore astrology with an open mind, consider meditation practices to connect with their intuition, and recognize the cyclical nature of spiritual and historical transitions found within the pages of the Bible.

Nic Flores is known for his deep and impactful conversations on the Collision Podcast. Today, we delve into Nick's recent experiences with burnout and his decision to step away from his podcast. Leslie & Nic explore how personal traumas and the challenges of holding space for diverse narratives contributed to this decision. Nick opens up about his journey of dealing with familial estrangement and how he and his wife are channeling their experiences into a new project called 'The Estranged Millennials'. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience, the importance of taking breaks, and the quest for authentic self-expression.
