Mind In View

Do you ever feel misunderstood? Have you ever jumped to a conclusion and later realized you were just projecting your own fears onto a situation? In this episode we discuss all the layers of understanding and misunderstanding after being on both sides. Come hang out with us as we explore the lenses through which we see the world, and are seen.

Sometimes it feels hard to live in a world where bad things happen. It's hard to face our seeming lack of control at times. So should we ever prepare for bad things to happen or should we just throw caution to the wind? In this episode we discuss facing our powerlessness head-on and talk about learning to tolerate uncertainty, again and again.

Can you identify with being rigid or stubborn? Does it ever feel like the way you want things to be is the way it should be for everyone? In this episode, we break down where OCD ends, and rigidity begins. We talk about what cognitive flexibility looks like and when anxiety gets in the way. Sometimes it's hard to know the difference between OCD/Anxiety vs preferences vs rigidity vs meticulousness. Let's figure this out together... flexibly.

Do you remember the teenage version of yourself? Isn't it wild to reflect on how you saw the world at that time, and yourself in it?! Some things have stayed the same, but so much has changed.

Tune in if you want to reminisce and reflect on that stage of life with us.

Do you have things that irk you to your core? Or do you know you do things that make your loved ones cringe? Well we decided to have a cheeky episode talking about these pet peeves because we also love to be silly and have fun! Join us as we laugh about the absurdities of life together.

Thea and Kate continue to explore the ways they live and behave through the lens of the Myers-Briggs. We dive deeper into the strengths and weaknesses associated with these styles and discuss how we hope to grow and evolve while also radically accepting some hard-wired aspects of ourselves!

Are you more of an ENFP like Thea or an ENFJ like Kate? If this means something to you, you might be chuckling at us, or if it sounds like random letters, you might enjoy listening to us break it all down! In this episode, we loosely touch down on our personality styles utilizing the Myers-Briggs constructs. As always, it's more of a vehicle for us to explore and reflect on who and what we are at the core. One thing is for sure, us two hambones are definitely extroverts!

Do you ever wish you could help your friends or family when you see them struggling but don't exactly know how?
