Sara and Holly are back on their Enneagram talk - and if you have a foundational knowledge of this system, today’s conversation is for you. They discuss misconceptions about each of their numbers, including how if we’re not careful we might turn each other into “caricatures”, which only seems to divide us in relationships. They discuss how we can come together using the different ways we are wired, and why being curious about others is always the best way to deepen relationships.

WATCH the video interview with Kathy on Substack!

Kathy Evans is back for Part 2 of our conversation, and we’re changing gears a bit. We’re shifting to Kathy’s role as a mother of boys (now men). We ask her to reflect about her heavy parenting years - what actually matters looking back, how she survived the teenage years, and how she thinks she role as mother lives on in the next generation of her family. She talks about navigating a divorce and co-parenting with her former husband, and what her kids have to say about that experience now as adults. She also reflects on midlife - what gets better with time, how to maintain friendships through the years, where she chose to put her energy (and still does), and how it feels to now be a grandma of girls(!).

Today we have the pleasure of speaking with Kathy Evans, who is Holly’s colleague, sage mentor, and personal friend for the last two decades. Kathy, now recently retired and in her 60s, reflects on balancing ambition and motherhood at P&G in the 80s and 90s, and what it often felt like to be “the only women in the room” when only about 15% of her peers were women. Kathy shares how these women banded together as a small but mighty community to support each other and mentor the next generation of women. She provides perspective on some areas where we might be hard on ourselves in our 40s, and shares her advice on how we can create space for change in a meaningful way.

Spring is here, and it’s an important time of awakening, possibilities, and planting. We come out of the stillness of winter with curiosity and energy to get outside and get moving. It’s a threshold season - it can be uncomfortable and uncertain. Sara and Holly talk about the human instincts of spring, the astrology that informs how we move in this season, and how we can look at this annual threshold as an opportunity for growth and connection.

What if Lent was never meant to be about giving up chocolate? In this episode, we explore what Lent was actually designed to be — a communal season, held together, moving toward something as a community. We trace how it drifted from a shared communal practice into a private self-improvement project, and why that loss matters — not just for people of faith, but for all of us. Because it turns out, humans across every culture and every era have built seasons that look remarkably like Lent — and we think that's trying to tell us something. This one is for anyone who has felt the quiet hunger for something more intentional, more connected, and more alive with shared meaning.

Let’s be honest - we all struggle to rest.

In a world of endless notifications, constant productivity, and year-round self-optimization, rest has quietly become something we have to earn.

In this episode, we explore one of the most radical ideas humanity ever practiced: Sabbath - a full day built into the week where the world simply stops.

We look at:

* The origins of Jewish Shabbat and its embodied, communal rhythm of rest

* Why Christians shifted Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday

* The theological differences between stopping (Judaism) and remembering (Christianity)

* How modern culture lost both the structure and the story that once protected rest

Whether you’re religious or not, this conversation is an invitation: What would it look like to take one day where you don’t fix, prove, or produce anything?

Parenting doesn’t stay the same — and neither do we. In this episode, we explore the evolution of parenting, how our perspective shifts as our kids grow older, and the wisdom that only comes with time, mistakes, and experience. From early survival mode to deeper reflection, this is an honest conversation about raising kids while growing up ourselves.

Happy (Lunar) New Year! We are about to enter Year of the Horse - and buckle up, it’s going to be a fiery one. Sara and Holly talk about the year we’re about to end (year of the Snake), how the transition will feel, and what you can expect from this year - and next - according to the lunar cycles, including what previous cycles in history have taught us.

Sara and Holly are discussing a phrase we don’t typically think about for this moment in time - collective grief is the idea that we are all sharing emotional processing of loss at a cultural level. Whether its political instability, climate crisis, pandemic aftermath, or even technology and AI, we might us other words to describe how we’re feeling (stress, anxiety, heaviness) but it’s all really under the umbrella of collective grief.

Grief changes shape but it remains, so we talk about how to integrate this into your life so we can keep moving forward together.
