    <title>Good Questions</title>
    <generator>Transistor (https://transistor.fm)</generator>
    <itunes:new-feed-url>https://feeds.transistor.fm/good-questions</itunes:new-feed-url>
    <description>A podcast for the part of you that already knows the answer — and just needs the right question to hear it.
I'm Lauren Cestero. I've spent years sitting with people at the edge of their own lives — listening for the question underneath the question. What I've learned is that the right question does more than any answer ever could.
Each episode is a slow, unhurried conversation with one question at the center. About the body. About the nervous system. About what it means to come back to yourself after a long time away.
No fixing. No advice. Just a warm room, a bowl of something warm, and room to feel.
Here I am. And here you are.</description>
