  • Being Outside... is WEIRD!
    WELCOME TO SEASON 2 OF THE LIFE IS WEIRD PODCAST!!!
    Oh how we’ve missed you all and we hope you’ve missed us too!
    Now that the weather is getting colder and we’re all retreating back indoors, we couldn’t think to
    pop off the season with a better topic... In our first episode back, we’ll discuss the ins and outs
    of being “outsssideee”! I’m sure we can all think of the perks that come with being outside, but
    we know those also come with certain downfalls, including the COSTS, the potential social
    battery drainage, the impact on relationships, and did I mention the COSTS...?!
    We hope you enjoy our super relatable, funny, and honest discussion in this episode!
    Happy Season Twooo!! -Lots of love, from the gworls of LIW <3
