In this episode of Staying Power, Ashley and JD explore the emotional and neurological reality of saying goodbye. Why is it so hard? Why do we sometimes avoid it? And what gifts can emerge when we allow ourselves to fully experience endings? Drawing from neuroscience, grief research, and lived experience, they reflect on how goodbyes shape identity, deepen meaning, and ultimately make room for growth. Because every ending… carries something forward. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/alternative-talk-1150am-kknw-1470425/episodes/staying-power-04-29-26-the-power-of-saying-goodbye/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/alternative-talk-1150am-kknw-1470425/staying-power-04-29-26-the-power-of-saying-goodbye.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
