Perspectives - The Podcast

This episode is a bit of a mish-mosh of some crazy things that Laura has had going on - and a big question that we tackle... Can/do people really change?

We also had a bit of a technical glitch, so unfortunately, the episode has a bit of an abrupt ending - for which we are both bummed and do apologize!! 

Jess and Laura's birthdays are a week apart, and just happened, and so they decided to take some time to reflect on getting older, how they feel about that - and more specifically - what kinds of things they would tell their younger selves if they could!!

Also - they are looking for feedback on what kinds of topics you might be interested in hearing them discuss on the pod!!

In a continuation of our last episode (albeit VERY delayed), we dive into a whole new topic than we've ever dabbled in before - the world of weight loss and GLP-1s!

It's been quite a while (a LONG while) since we got together to record! We fill you in on where we've been, what we've been up and what our current perspectives are! We had plenty to say, so we actually split our conversation into 2 parts...here is part 1. It's a bit of a mish-mosh of things, but we hope you'll still want to connect. As always, feedback is welcome!

It's been a minute!! In fact, it's been so many minutes, Jess basically forgot how to edit this podcast, and so as you'll hear - the beginning is a little bumpy. But - raw and real - that's what we're gonna call it. If you've been wondering where we disappeared to, we'll fill you in on that, AND then we dive into the discussion topic of if boycotts actually hurt - or help. We hope you'll listen, and we'd love to know your take!!

Jess and Laura are talking about understanding our personal "whys" - what motivates us, what determines our priorities and informs our decisions; the  reasonings - our "Why" - for doing the things we do. Join us as we look at some of our own personal whys, and how we try to be intentional about living by them.

Between being stuck smack in the middle of the dull, gray days of winter in the Northeastern part of Pennsylvania, and just watching the world unfold in what seems like a fictional disaster story - the ladies sat down to record last week without a topic in mind, but as they talked what emerged was what they are doing to just survive these days. So, rather than having nothing to discuss - they just rolled with and ended up with a bit longer than normal episode. Listen in to see what is working for them to keep their heads above water right now...and chime in on the socials to share what is keeping you surviving these days!!!

In this episode the ladies are talking about "culture" - what it means, and how every setting has a culture - be it in a family, a company, or a nation. What types of things make up a culture, and who drives those things...all aspects of culture that are covered is this conversation. 

It's the New Year and the ladies are discussing - resolutions, yes or no? What goals they have heading into 2025 - both some new things, and continuing to build on things that they were doing in 2024. After taking a few weeks off, they are back in the swing and looking forward to what adventures this year will bring!! Listen in and find out what Intention and Exploration are meaning to them, and of course, at the end of the episode, the nugget of "what they are learning".

With the holidays obviously on everyone's mind, the ladies squeezed one episode in talking about that very topic. They discuss their own traditions, how things have changed over the years, and what deeper significance the holidays hold for them.
