  • Ep 21: How to make dating less stressful
    We can all probably agree that if you are not dating your high school sweetheart dating can actually be somewhat nerve-racking, stressful, or just weird. Often times we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to figure things out right away or worse, to make something work when it clearly isn’t there. In this episode we talk about dating from a whole different perspective. We bring in some very detailed helpful dating criteria and talk it out together.

    March is Women’s History month and as young women in the 21st century, we talk about some struggles that are still very much present in society, some interesting perspectives, and what feminism really is. We then transition into a very interesting personality assessment, the Enneagram test. All personalities have healthy and unhealthy levels and we discuss how to achieve higher levels of development within our own.

  • Ep 18: You may be giving up happiness for all the wrong reasons
    In this episode we discuss the Harvard Business Review article, Accounting for Time, by Ashley Whillans and Hanne Collins. They provide us simple-everyday examples of how saving money may actually make us poorer. After conducting research, they assign value to time and compare it to other expenses in our lives. In the end we all get to the realization that having the time to do the things that make you happy in life actually makes you the richest in the grand scheme of things.
