Part 1, Favorite Flowers and  Of Course, Cards, Roses, Lillies, Carnations, and more. Who doesn't love flowers? Unless you have to get up at 3:00 a.m. to help your S.O. at the flower mart, then all bets are off. Also included in this conversation is Rebecca's love of all things cards and how they are important travel companions to even remote international destinations.

Chapter 4, From a Distance by Quinn Barrett: My creativity usually manifests through some technology-driven method like this podcast. I really enjoy creating and producing digital content. For me, it is playful especially when everything comes together easily.

Chapter 3, Playing Well by Rebecca Gross: Trying to be perfect is exhausting and yet we find ourselves in pursuit of goals that don't make us any happier once we achieve them. Children hold the answer to so many of our struggles in that they embody the spirit of play in a way that we all need to remember and emulate.

Chapter 2, Dog Day Afternoon by Chrys Withrow: Dogs are more than beloved members of the family. They teach us great life lessons, like how to be and play to sheer exhaustion, loving every minute of the afternoon filled with family fun time.

Chapter 1, Drinks From the Big Game: The ladies aren't watching the big game. Instead, they're discussing some favorite drink options from vodka, tequila, gin, wine, and other fruity libations. Cheers!

Chapter 4, Head Games at the Drive-In by Chrys Withrow: It was the summer of 1972 I believe and I was either 12 or perhaps already 13 years old. My Aunt Diane who is only 10 years older than I, had told my older sister and I  that we could go along with her to the drive-in movie.

Chapter 3, The 50 Mile Fun Ride by Quinn Barrett: I want to talk about being adventurous because I'm not particularly adventurous. I'm a big risk taker which there's a difference. I don't have a lot of fear about making big decisions.

Chapter 2, Body Heat in Costa Rica by Rebecca Gross: It started well as these things usually do with a chance encounter at a white water rafting tour with a dude named Dylan. He was from Florida and he happened to be headed by way. This was in Costa Rica.

Chapter 1, Good Ideas Gone Wrong: Besides the latest political twists and turns as well as the ongoing pandemic vaccination struggles, somehow our country still manages to find new and unique ways to showcase good ideas gone wrong. We're not journalists, nor do we have the answers to yet another drama that will play itself out in social media. What we do have are some lighthearted personal stories that started with good intentions but didn't necessarily play out the way we hoped. So step away from your favorite news feed, put your earbuds in, and have a laugh with us.

Chapter 4, When Gold Becomes Lead by Quinn Barrett: At the very first spiritual workshop I ever went to which was a long time ago, I was still in my big corporate career and I kept having this impression like I wasn't supposed to be there anymore, which was just crazy.
