Being Better Humans Podcast

Dear Listener,

Thank you for listening to Episode 17: The Journey not the Destination. In this episode we take a look at all that can be missed when our lens is too focused on the final goal instead of enjoying the journey. You'll not be surprised to find that some of our thoughts include: mindfulness, perspective taking, journaling/collecting thoughts, and implementing hobbies and things you enjoy back into your life!

As always, we are grateful you have chose to join us,

Kelly and Kristine

Dear Listener,

Being better together,

Kelly and Kristine

Dear Listener,

We continue this FLIP on phones and how they make us better humans. Today we discuss our use of photo storage, organization, memory keeping, and reminders. Not just screen time and anxiety, no way! This computer for our hands is full of the stuff life is made of... memories!

Better Ways for Better Days,

Kelly and Kristine

Dear Listener, Today we ask you to FLIP your thinking about screen time. They say we only use 10% of our brains, well what percentage of our phones do we use?

Phones are so much more than a nuissance and brain drain. They help us to be better humans! We discuss how phones improve our lives and our productivity. This episode focuses specifically on our use of Notes and Music.

Intent on Being Better,

Kelly and Kristine

Dear Listener,

Do you make resolutions, set annual goals, vision board, manifest? No matter what your approach, we've got a great mindset for you here! We view change making through three lenses:

Cold Turkey: no BS, just stop it already! (Easier said than done, but this is tried and true for many.)

Gung Ho: the all in appoach, don't think just DO, let's gooooo!

Uh Oh: awarness is key, what are your obstacles? Monitor and adjust.

Being Better through change,

Kelly and Kristine

Dear Listener,

We love books and we love you! This episode glimpses into our lives as (very different) readers. We could talk books all day every day, but instead we limit it to this little podcast!

Dear Listener,

How do you feel about comfort zones? This episode addresses pushing the boundaries of your own coziness and exposes ways that you might already be living on the edge. We hope to shine light on ways that you can push your boundaries to be a better human.

Much love
