Boat building is a thing. A big thing. Here in New England, there’s a rich history of building boats, dating back to 1688 in Essex Massachusetts. Our guest today is a boatwright. That’s a person who builds and repairs boats, usually wooden boats. Beautiful, functional, drool-worthy works of art that dance and play on the water. Carter Richardson owns East Passage Boatwrights in Bristol, RI, and joins us to talk about what life is like as a boatwright. Listen in!

Breaking up is never easy. It’s often sad, humiliating, scary, and depressing. Yet, there are times when it is absolutely necessary. In this episode, we talk about why it’s okay to break free from a sinking ship. In episode 52 we talked about creating your own inner happiness and how that contributes to a healthy relationship. What happens when only one of you does the heavy lifting of inner work, repeatedly coming up against the friction created by a partner who cannot or will not do the work necessary to create their own inner happiness? At what point do we call “game over”? And if you find yourself in need of a great bar in which to drink your sorrows away (or celebrate your freedom), we talk to professional bartender, Adrienne Nicole, Newport’s own Liquid Chef. One of Adrienne’s craft cocktails is sure to lift your spirits, whether you are single or happily attached. Listen in!
