In This Episode:  

• We talk about our retrospective of 2021, our favorite episodes, and more.
• Jenny shares her experiences with AirBnB and her experiences, but then the conversation turned to how Airbnb is a reflection of Sarah's money mindset.   
• Joe goes on a tangent about how he would like to see themed Airbnb rooms that are replicas of the sets for various TV shows.
• Everybody has a different definition of extravagance and luxury, we talk about our feelings.
• Trying new things might make you uncomfortable, but you should do it anyway. But as a parent, I feel like it's incomplete advice. Because you can't universalize it, like trying new things would make you uncomfortable, but you should do it anyways may not always work for your kids.
• We get to choose the story we tell ourselves even in the most horrific of experiences and then how based on those stories, how we move forward.
• What are you looking forward to in 2022? Are we going to do the live event? Who would you like to see on the show?

Quotes from Today's Episode:

"We try so hard in this world. Sometimes, we all do myself included, try to be what we think people want or people need, or what people are going to identify as legitimate and serious. And in that, we lose all of our authenticity and when we lose our authenticity, our message stops mattering anyway." - Joanna

"I don't think I'm smart enough to be scared" - Joanna

Fantasize about who you want to be,
Release the blocks that are holding you back,
Embrace who you are with tender love and care, and
Empower you to live authentically!

Quotes from Today's Episode:

"A lot of people think that I maybe I'm against monogamy. I'm absolutely not against monogamy. I was monogamous for a long time, and I think it's wonderful.  As long as you're choosing that, right?" - Karine Bedard

"I'm a Bible school graduate turned Playboy enthusiast." - Karine Bedard

"I say to a lot of the couples that come to me, I'm your key to freedom. And freedom is not about being non-monogamous freedom is about being open-minded and sex-positive." - Karine Bedard

Quotes from Today's Episode:

 "I believe in celebrations, big or small. Whether it’s getting a job promotion, throwing a kickass wedding, or hosting a birthday party for your dog (which I have been known to do), there is always a reason to revel in your life." -Kasey

"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all." - Kasey's Instagram
