5 ways to prep yourself for starting a new year WITHOUT having to make any new resolutions! Reflect, finish up, and get ready to start a new year with us in the final “try” episode of Season 3.

Feeling grinchy? This time of year is both joyful AND stressful - from spending money, traveling, finding presents, and setting boundaries...we discuss how to deal with all of that and more so that all our hearts can grow three sizes by the 25th (in a good way, not a you-need-to-lower-your-cholesterol way)

Sometimes a good cry is all you really need...until it feels like you're having a heart attack. At what point can we officially say we have anxiety and is it even real? In this episode, we get really honest about how we've been struggling emotionally and ways that we've tried to work through those feelings when they manifest themselves physically (like when you're sitting in your car outside Target). 

The "perfect" gift may not come in a box - in fact, it may not be a gift at all! In this episode, we explore the idea of intentional gift-giving, sustainable ways to package gifts, and stepping away from the idea that "expensive" or "quantity" shows how much we love someone else.

In this personality test, we ditched the words and went straight for the pictures! The assignment: create a mood board on Pinterest to describe the other person. The results? Surprisingly affirming and touching! Tune in to our latest try and tag a friend to try this with you.

Why is it so difficult to be grateful? How can we be more intentional about bringing gratitude into our lives? Can having an "attitude of gratitude" really change my life? In this episode, Lauren DeVera of the Thrive + Thread podcast joins us for a short chat on how to bring the "I'm Thankful For..." into our lives for the long haul. 

In an era of one-click buying and tap to pay, thrifting or upcycling can not only help your wallet but also your community and our planet! CEO of recycle2riches Ashleigh Morgan shares why she loves thrifting so much and how to push beyond the discomfort of not having the "newest" things.

Sometimes it's hard to say "no", answer that work text/e-mail at night, or be clear about when you can or can't do something. We all struggle with personal boundaries (some more than others). In this episode we explore why boundaries are so challenging and three ways to start setting them!

Just the way grandma made it...kinda. Cooking can be TOUGH and it can be even harder trying to re-create dishes you grew up loving. In this episode, Vanessa discovers the world of pressure cookers and Melissa discovers the pressure of her family being hungry (and the meat needing two hours to marinate...) Tune in to find out which dishes we made!

It's still October..but wait, was that Santa's face you just saw in the mall? Absolutely. "Christmas Creep" isn't some rando hitting on you at the office party - it's a real-life-driven-by-consumerism thing, and we're uncomfortable with it.
