Episode 22 - Self-Acceptance. 

As we visited the importance of relationships with others over the past couple of weeks, it's only right we talk about one of the most important relationships- the one you build with yourself. This week we discuss self-acceptance and how crucial it is to living a happy, fulfilled and successful (as defined by you) life.

Episode 21 - #RelationshipGoals 

This week's episode we're talking about relationship goals. It's easy to get lost in IG and FB posts but we have to ask ourselves - is the constant consumption of perfection healthy for our own lives? Join two tired people - Mr. and Mrs. Antitheses (aka me & my hubby) as we dive into all things relationships and healthy relationship goals.

Episode 20!!! Relationship FAIL - Have you ever failed...hard? So hard that all you can do is mill over how you could have done it different, been better or demanded better? Well this episode is for you. Often times we find ourselves stuck under the weight of things we thought were failures, unable to truly move forward, but what is a failure? Does something not turning out the way we wanted really mean we failed and how can we reframe our thinking to take those failures and create spaces in which we can grow? All this and more in this week's episode.

Episode 18 - Beauty is Our Name. 

This week's episode we're talking about beauty. The world we live in constantly shapes the way we perceive beauty, generally creating standards no one can achieve.  In thinking about this I wondered what children think about beauty and how it impacts their lives. Is their innocence a shield from the images that have shaped the rest of us or have they already felt the weight of this societal construct?  

In searching for answers I decided to consult an expert...my 5 year old daughter. The conversation that follows is everything I thought it would be and a whole lot of things I didn't see coming.
