May 31, 2022 Processing the Uvalde Tragedy
The second you hear the word Uvalde, a slew of strong and complex emotions rush in. For us, this mass shooting hit harder as all 3 of us are Mothers of young children. Each of us share individually how this event has and is currently impacting us. We wanted to provide the space to unpack and process what we are navigating mentally. We also discuss where we each are going to individually start to reconcile these challenging feelings, and potentially how we can impact the state of our country in a positive way. Thank you for listening and sharing this vulnerable and hard conversation with us.

May 13, 2022 What’s the “Points Game?”
Listen to the QUEEN of points and miles herself, Nancy Rachatanavin, talk about the benefits and challenges of getting in to the “points game.” In the personal finance space, you may have also heard this referred to as travel hacking. Nancy gives great advice on how to carefully begin a strategy for earning points and miles that will help offset your future travel costs. She’s traveled the world for more than a decade, using very little of her own money for flight and hotel costs. The number one rule? Make sure you pay you credit card balance off in full. Every.

April 29, 2022 Comparison Trap
You’ve probably heard comparison is the thief of joy, because it truly is! On this episode we discuss specifically how we have compared ourselves to other moms and how that can create a sense of failure. Social media can also exacerbate this comparison dilemma even further if we aren’t intentional around our thinking when it comes to others. (Check out last week’s Social Media Episode if you haven’t already!) Your journey is unique and you bring your own gifts, talents and style to whatever it is that is on your life journey. Shine bright just the way you are and find the beauty in the unique approach you have to life. Enjoy! https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0732118X9500002X
