It has been a hot minute since we last released an episode, so allow us to reintroduce ourselves! In this episode, we go back to the beginning. Who were are individually, who we are together. We chat about why we started this podcast and what it has become. If you're a new listener, hopefully this keeps you coming back. For our loyal listeners, we hope this will remind you where we started. A lot has changed. One thing continues to stay the same. We are better together.

Setting goals together did not always come easy for us. Billy had two decades of experience before meeting Ashley. Ashley had no experience. Billy remained persistent, but was patient as Ashley explored goal setting. And now it’s become a way we bond and allow us to grow together. Listen in as we provide examples to encourage your partner when they are not on board.

A year ago our worlds were rocked with the news of our pregnancy. We immediately captured all those feelings (and more) in a podcast episode (EP 38) that later became our pregnancy announcement. Fast forward to now where we listen back on that episode. We reflect on where we were mentally, and where we are now... and you can bet there were some tears shed (again)!

In this weeks episode, we discuss why we are taking a different approach with our goals this year after struggling in 2019 to accomplish all we set out to do. We share a few goals and how they have a similar destination as last year, but how we plan to get there is different. We are focusing more on the journey this year. We are taking things slow. We are working through some stuff over here.

We share another couple of takes in this episode where each of us shares a take on something going on in the world. Our takes this episode are about people from across the pond. Ashley talks about Harry and Meghan making an important decision for their family. Billy talks about not understanding people investing money in the MMA fight with Conor McGregor who is an all around horrible person. Let us know if you agree or disagree with our takes.

Last episode we looked back on 2019, which was a challenging year for us. It ended up being our best year ever. In this episode, we look forward to 2020, a new year and decade. We are in a much different place now. We answer some questions we reflected on during our planning retreat and share our new vision for our relationship moving forward. We know this will be our best year ever yet again! Oh and don't miss Billy sing a little Wicked!

Welcome to 2020! It's a new year and a new decade! We know you are excited. We are too! But before we officially look forward to the next year that we know will be amazing, we look back on 2019. We answer the questions we shared in Episode 64 and guess what? It gets a little emotional because 2019 was tough for us, but it also was our best year ever!

Last episode we shared questions to reflect on when looking back on a year. In this episode, we share questions to reflect on when looking forward to a new year. The questions will set you and your partner up for success when setting your goals for the next year!

Can you believe there are only two weeks left in the year… scratch that - THE DECADE! Coming off the #10yearchallenge and the end of the year/decade in sight, everyone is feeling very retrospective. In this episode, we take all that introspection and take it to reflection. We share the what/when/where/how to reflect on the past year and set yourself up for success when setting your goals for next year!

Time to take a trip back in time to our worst year together as a married couple. We have shared a lot on this podcast about how we are better together, that we often collab and how we are great communicators. We have an awesome partnership, but year one of our marriage was not great. It was tough. In this episode, we share why the year was so difficult and how we got through it.
