Mangled Spaces

This week Tash and Mel discuss some of their favorite ways of making technology work in their favor. There are plenty of down sides to the prevelance of tech in our world, but this week is all about the parts that are making life better!

This week's episode is the second part of the conversation around growing a culture of inclusivity. Tash and Mel talk through how shifting our priorities can make more room at the table for all.

This week's episode is in response to a listener request who reached out about trying to grow a culture of inclusivity in the school where they work. Tash and Mel talk through some of the barriers they have run into when it comes to challenging norms and behaviors, and how certain attitudes can really hinder whether someone feels welcome in a space. Part two of this conversation will follow next week, when they will talk through how shifting our priorities can make more room at the table for all.

Tash and Mel share a handful of life lessons learned the hard way--some funnier than others. But funny or not, they are doing their best to let lessons learned shift future decisions.

This week Mel and Tash continue their conversation from last week, focusing on Tasha's perspective. Tasha shares about how she worked through a lot of healing to continue showing up for intentional friendship and avoiding "tripping over trauma" when Mel's pregnancy brought up fresh triggers from her past.

This week Mel shares an update on some big life changes on the horizon as she navigates pregnancy and anticipates the arrival of a new member of the family. She and Tasha begin the conversation about the complexities of intentional friendship when pregnancy is a trigger for infertility and miscarriage trauma. They'll continue the conversation in next week's episode, which focuses more on Tasha's perspective.

This week Mel and Tasha dive into their experiences of how they have seen the Church respond to (and teach about) mental health. They discuss what they have seen succeed and fall flat in various spaces, and ultimately they gear up for a guest on the podcast coming next week!

Join Mel and Tash as they take a small peak into what it looks like to choose to scrap or salvage parts of our lives. Whether it is furniture, relationships, jobs, or thought process there is always a decision to be made.
