In this solo episode, Max talks about the two parts of dealing with big feelings - the ability to calm ourselves down, and the ability to tolerate them. While calming techniques are becoming more widespread, we don't hear about the importance of building up tolerance as often. This week, we're touching on the good, the bad and the silly parts of tolerance and resilience. 

How do you "find balance", anyways? In this solo episode, Max dives into their recent experiences with going to extremes in order to redefine balance. Instead of expecting ourselves to be the same every day, why not lean into our high energy days and take it easy on our low energy days? They also talk about embracing anger and pushing ourselves to be more selfish to work against people pleasing tendencies. 

From business endeavours, to passion projects, tough times and personal growth... We're catching you up on what we've been up to this summer. We're also introducing solo episodes to the DWI podcast so stay tuned!

In this episode, we discuss how labels can both help us develop our identity and limit our growth. Join us as we chat about what changes a label from a neutral statement to an emotionally-charged minefield, and how they create narratives that we can end up basing our entire lives around. 

Here's to personal growth and busting out of our identity boxes!

Join us as we walk you through our version of New Year's resolutions, how to set an intention vs. a goal, and why we think that 12-month planning is a little far-fetched. With our New Year theme in mind, we discuss why having "time" for self-care is a myth, how we can all be subject to stimulus overload, and why sometimes it's worth it to "do a little extra". Enjoy!

Do you have big ideas but find yourself burnt out within a week of starting them? Today, we’re discussing how household dynamics, fleeting motivation and big expectations can hold you back from creating sustainable habits in your daily life. Max shares her breakthroughs as an active anti-chore doer and how taking little steps can have the most impact to create massive change.

Welcome back to the DWI podcast - season 2! In this episode, we're talking about how easy it can be to slip into perfectionist tendencies and hold yourself back. This episode is our first step in undoing our own perfection and going with the flow. Enjoy!

We’re taught that having money makes you selfish, shallow and yet somehow better than everyone else. What if we told you that money only has the power that you give it? What if we could all see money as an exchange of energy and token of appreciation? In this episode, we talk all about how we’re working our way out of a “scarcity of money” mindset and how we got here in the first place.
