  • Even the Smallest Pebble Creates a Ripple

    This week on the pod Heidi and Tyler discuss the magic that lies within the details. The little things that compound in our life, good and bad. 

    They discuss how often, if we find ourselves in a bad place there is not one big event that brought us there...just small behavior after small behavior that compounded, and all of a sudden we don't even realize how we got to where we are.

    This week we discuss the dichotomy of providing freedom to not be perfect while also taking pride in the details and how to strike that balancing act when it comes to your health!
