In this mini-episode of 'Good Ideas + Bad Decisions,' Ellen and Kat reunite after a month apart to recap a hectic February marked by dark winter weather, travel disruptions, and family chaos. Ellen shares launching a Substack, redesigning and relaunching her client offerings with help from her VA, managing sick kids, and getting stranded in Dallas during a blizzard, including a stressful aquarium meltdown with her children. Kat describes weeks of nonstop California rain leading to black mold issues, a busy month with a spa visit and an Ohio install, and Valentine’s Day gifts including at-home blood typing kits and a blind wine tasting workshop that felt unexpectedly stuffy. Recording while Ellen is on a jury duty lunch break, they answer a business question about where they do their best work, citing airplanes, airport lounges, libraries, cars, and even hospitals.
