Lack Of All Trades

Today is our last day, our final episode. 

When we set out on this journey as Lack of All Trades we wanted to meet interesting people, we wanted to explore and share ideas, we wanted to learn and grow from one another, and thanks to all of you that is exactly what we did. And now it's time for something new for both of us. 

For this final episode, we explore our journey, we reflect on our growth as friends, family, and individuals, we discuss how covid has shaped this last year and we say our final goodbyes. 

Thanks to everyone who has been on this journey with us.

Today we ask the question "What is the biggest risk you've ever taken?" 

We explore some interesting responses from our loyal listeners and cover everything from moving halfway across the world with nothing but two bags, to betting on yourself in search of bigger and better things!

Today we do something a little different by asking you, our listeners, "What is the best advice you've ever received?".

As always, we loved hearing from you and figuring out how some of your advice applies to our own lives. We definitely learned a thing or two!

If you missed out on answering this week, that's ok - we'll be posting a few more of these on our Instagram stories moving forward, so give us a follow, share your thoughts and let us know what you think about this new format!

Today we kick off with a chat around the impact of stress on our body and breathing, exploring the concept of email apnea and what it's like to feel the weight of your day to day job. Is it possible that the chaos in our minds can sometimes manifest itself in the way we live, maybe even in the way we organize our homes?

We touch on Kyle's background owning and running his own business and reflect on our experience running the podcast. We ask the question, "Where are we now?" and ask you, our listener, some important questions that only you can answer.

After nearly a month apart Kyle is finally back, and man is it good to be back!

Kyle gets into what it feels like to be a new father, and we explore the perception we had of what 

We also explore being present and how distraction can rob us of precious moments before we even realize it, 

It was amazing being able to catch up again, and we are so excited to get back to business as usual!

Today's episode is largely about music and it's impact on our lives.

Today MJ and Jaimie delve deep into the issues of putting to much pressure on themselves. They get into the feelings of self-doubt that all people go through and speak about redefining their goals to better measure growth rather than success.

Kyle is still on paternity leave with his family so MJ and Jaimie have to hold down the Lack of All Trades fort so to speak.

MJ and Jaimie get into how their daily lives are changing as restrictions are lifted and as we go into lighter levels of lockdown.

The conversation soon moves to existentialism as they discuss how being lonely or feeling alone can feel as good as it can feel bad, and Jaimie revisits some of the adventures she's undertaken on her own.

It truly is unbelievable that we are living through "These Crazy Times".

We are all so excited that Baby Ross’ arrival is just a few days away! The time’s come for Kyle to take a bit of a backseat in preparation for her arrival and enjoy some well-deserved paternity leave.

In the meantime, MJ needs a temporary co-host, so the lovely Jaimie, his fiance, steps up to join the Lack team for a little while!

Today we chat a little about the ideas of aging, growing older, and how we perceive time. That leads to a little motivational segue where we explore Jaimie's decision to quit her job during lockdown and pursue her passions as an artist/nail tech.

Happy 1st of July, everyone!

Today we take a moment to commemorate "Youth Day" and we get into why this "Youth Day" feels so different for us.

Our commitment to all the listeners and followers of the podcast is that we will always try to grow and learn and hope to do it with all of you. So we hope that not only do you enjoy the discussion but you can also join in.
