Reading Through Life

Show notes:

Anger is a topic that isn’t talked about much in our everyday lives, but it needs to be. Sarah and Mia talk about the things that make them ragey and the shame spiral that inevitably follows. Come find out what makes Sarah give her husband the death stare and Mia give the middle finger salute to a stranger - and how they both feel about apologies.

Show quotes: 

“Kids, I've come to learn, know how to push every single button that you have. Even if you think it's a hidden button, they will find it and they will push it all day long.” - Sarah

“I'm very, very laid back and I'm also a recovering people pleaser, so I don't really let my emotions show or express my anger the way that I should.” - Mia

Show notes:

Here we go, it’s our first episode! We wanted to kick things off with our favorite topic: BOOKS. We are chatting about the genres we like to read, the book formats we enjoy, new releases vs. backlist titles, and best of all, we share our 10 best books of the summer. We have very different reading tastes, so this list will absolutely have something for everyone. Come chat books with us and add some titles to your TBR. 

Show quotes: 

“I always love a good classical book. Me and Charles Dickens are BFFs.” -Mia

“I discovered historical fiction a few years ago and that was all I read for basically an entire year.” -Sarah
