Coronavirus Series, Part II: WORK. Have you been judgy of other peoples’ houses through Zoom? Have you shamed yourself for not being productive? Have you participated in an awkward virtual happy hour with your co-workers? This is the episode for you. My guest, Allie Lawton, is here to kick off our theme of “work” and how a global pandemic has affected it. We talk about missing hallway chatter, getting comfortable without makeup in front of our co-workers, and how she’s started to successfully adjust to this new normal.

We’re trying our best not to use the word “unprecedented”. In this episode, my old pal Annie Scott is here. We talk about how teachers are basically content creators now, how desk proximity to bed is more important than we thought, and how this time is actually a test for how we feel about our lives: does quarantine affirm your busy lifestyle as the one you really want?  Annie also talks about her approach of treating quarantine like a cocoon from which she’ll emerge as a beautiful butterfly.

Coronavirus Series, Part I: SELF. Lauren Perry was already in a phase of transition before coronavirus hit. But in many ways, she had been preparing for how to face this uncertainty for years… without even knowing it. In this episode, we discuss reconnecting with old friends, appreciating routine (again), and how positivity may feel like a battle, but it’s just a practice.

Coronavirus Series, Part I: SELF. From organizing random parts of our homes to mourning the future of humanity, what are our knee-jerk reactions to a life shift like this? My guest, Erin Dunlap, is here to discuss self-awareness, routines, putting suffering in perspective, and her version of “getting dressed” (aka putting on leggings instead of sweatpants).

I think the title of this episode says it all. It’s been over a year, but I’m back… and the world is absolutely crazy. Today, I’m opening up and being vulnerable about the last few years, as well as kicking off a mini-series all about (you guessed it) the coronavirus and how it’s changing us.
