James & Jess' Half Hour

All you have to do is to just stop having expectations in life. 
You will figure it all out by just living peacefully in the moment. 
It's okay to stuff up every once & a while.
It's okay miss an opportunity.
As time goes by you will learn the correct path for yourself.
Own the moment & move forward.
Always trust your intuition & your gut instinct. It knows the way.

Everything will work out in the end, in the order that it's meant too. 
If you freak out or not, it's going to go the way it's meant too.
We are never in control in the first place... why start now?

James & Jess talk about career choice with old mate John.  We talk about SES, bushfires, his actions and career choices.

This weeks episode is about those moments in life when you go with  a mate who doesnt want to  go alone to an SES meeting which ends up becoming an opportunity that gives you perspective and experience while giving back to community.  We also discuss fire safety, and fuel loads.

Often the career calling is within our family and how we are brought up influences that type of career we would find rewarding. We talk about flow and going with the flow and trusting you will get where you need to be. Take those steps and be open to the path ways. There is never one way but many ways. Maybe they do though all lead to the one place which is self fulfillment .

James & Jess talk about those major life events that change your direction. When you quit that job you didn't like, when you were reminded of your own morality, and when you didn't want something that turned out to be amazing.

This weeks episode is about those key moments when the unexpected happens and you change course. That relationship break up, coming out to your family, getting the unexpected that turns out to be better, taking the risk you never thought you would take, Life happens to us, for us. Often when we slow down and stop trying the universe gives us more than what we could of wanted. AKA story of Jess' awesome car.

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them – that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like. - Lao Tzu

James & Jess are in the flow.  Accountability & self satisfaction.
This is what happened to me, i'm hurt but.... what about the other side of the coin?

This weeks episode can be a tough one to discuss, but at the same time, the easiest.
It's your interpretation.
There are situations in life that change our perspective.
They define who we are & the path that's in front of us. 
The key is to not pass the blame to on other people & stop making excuses.
It may be the easy way to deal, but in the long run not beneficial.

Take accountability for your actions, past & present. 
Own them & move forward.
We are all in this together.
You will find yourself on a path of self satisfaction & self respect. 
That gradual process is what life is all about.
Stop having that cup of yours "half full".
You are better than that.

Spooky Headless George is a highway ghost on the Gippsland hwy or so my Dad was told by his brother. Who knows if its true my research wasnt the best and reddit wasnt helpful.  
Jess talks about Picnic at Hanging Rock. Was it Aliens who abducted the girls? Most definately it would seem. This week is just a bit of spooky fun. We talk about Disneys remake of Mulan and Beyonce and Lana Del Rey as well cause why not talk about awesome females.

This weeks episode of James & Jess’ Half Hour is a bit spooky but mostly just chill.

If need some spooky stuff followed by some general chit chat about strong females then we got you covered this week.

Failure takes us to places we have never been. James thinks we have to face the music and shout it out loud hey look I fucked up and its okay cause I am human. He failed by flooding his workplace and failed his manual license twice before succeeding. Uvin talks about engineering and how important failure is to the learning process so that bridges stand the test of time. Uvin also touches on love and relationships and how the failure of that makes us ready for a great fucking relationship. Jess talks about her first time love and how it died. 

This weeks episode of James & Jess’ Half Hour is fan fucking tastic cause we our superfan Uvin in the house.

We need failure to know what to do in our life's journey. 

Today is about when we have fallen but gotten up. 

So what I fucked up you will too :P

The Book Club With the Amazing Jacqui who talks about her cabinet show which was about reading.

James talks about his biology textbook and Jacqui talks astro physics. 

We chat about books. In particular we chat about how its okay not to be reading. We talk about the types of books we like and dislike. How it gets harder to keep on reading sometimes but you have to push right on through to a brand new world. 

Join us this week on James & Jess’s Half Hour  unfortunately Jess is unwell and couldn't join us but the fabulous Jacqui had a good chat about reading there is nothing wrong with reading Harry Potter over and over. Shes an expert who can tell you which house you will be sorted into. But really the main thing is to keep reading and to find what floats your boat.
