Episode 362: Check-In Show

30 minutes

(0:41) Hellos & Happenings

Hello, listeners from sunny Arizona!

Stacy is loving everything about the southwest, except the internet connection

Matt and Stacy were in Sedona when this episode was recorded

This stop along their trip has been a great rest and restore spot

This week will just be a check-in show since Stacy is having some trouble with the internet reliability

There is a topic on the docket for episode 363 that both Stacy and Sarah are super passionate about and incredibly excited to discuss and share with listeners

They don't want to record this epic discussion with the chance of the internet going out mid recording

Sarah is about to head to the mountains for a family camping trip

Sarah's mom is in town and will be joining them for a trip to the mountains

They will be escaping the heat, internet connection, and cell service

Sarah and Stacy chatted about screen time limits

Sarah's husband suggested that she give the time limit features a try but Sarah passed

Stacy tried them for a little while when she was still working

She set the bedtime feature which was helpful

Sarah does use the 'do not disturb' feature on her phone to set boundaries on her time

Stacy reminded listeners that if you have been busy working all summer, that simply turning your phone off is a great way to create time to recharge

You can even set up your 'do not disturb' feature so that certain people (spouse, kids, etc.) can still reach you via phone call

Stacy thinks that having those occasional breaks from your internet is really special

Let it be known, Stacy does not like sand.

Matt, Stacy and the kids rode ATVs in the desert and had a blast disconnecting and being in the moment

Disconnecting is such a great and truly easy way to reconnect with those you love and to fully live in the moment

Ask yourself what you need and what really matters and make more time for these things and people

Sarah gives talks at business conferences and shares on work-life balance

Sarah shares the research on how much you can get done when you take breaks for movement, manage stress, and get enough sleep

The very information she shares is a great reminder to Sarah on how and why to take digital media detoxes

The mountains are very restorative to Sarah for many reasons, but especially because of the digital downtime the getaway provides

Matt and Stacy's boy's first interaction with a cactus

Sarah is going to be an American citizen in a week!!

She passed her test

Sarah worked so hard to pass this test and ultimately over-prepared for it

On July 29 she will take her oath

By the end of that ceremony, she will have her documentation showing she is an American citizen

Sarah's husband will have his ceremony on his birthday

Sarah shared on why this is such a meaningful moment in her life

America's naturalization process is really unique and special

Stacy doesn't think there is much more she can add to Sarah's amazing cherry on top of this check-in show

Have a wonderful week!

Next week Stacy and Sarah will be back with an amazing episode!

Thank you, listeners and huge congratulations to Sarah again!
