The Dame Debate

#035 Such a fun episode! We talk about the artist and the muse, openness with your partner, taking things as they come and so much more! We love these rapid fire discussions because they are really off the cuff, spur of the moment and in the moment. These questions feel random in the moment but they send us down these amazing rabbit holes that we may not have discovered any other way. We hope you enjoy!

#034 This one is a fun one with similar formatting to the other Rapid Fire episodes but we go down a deep hole with the simple question of "What gets you out of a rut?". We answer the question then we continue conversing in our organic, genuine, "out to lunch" kind of way. It's a really insightful and healthy conversation that we are so excited for you to listen to and think through some things with us. Let us know what you think!

#033 Or not so rapid fire! This is a fun one we dive into everything from first kisses to parenting. You know we love to jibber jabber but we really get into some thoughtfulness and wrestle with a few things. We have fun along the way, of course, but it'll getcha thinkin! We love it an we hope you do too!

#032 Let's talk about getting vulnerable and how good that can be for you and others...this episode gets to the heart of things and our dear friend Bristols lays her heart out for all to see. It's a beautiful episode full of our usual twists and turns but we really get to serious meet of what growth looks like in a unique environment. This conversation really is one for the books that we are so excited for you all to get to be apart of. Give it a listen and let us know what you think!

#031 Rapid fire or not so rapid fire...we will let you decide! Since we haven't answered our own rapid fire questions, we decided to take some time to do so. We have some debate and add in some additional questions that get's Kam in a bit of a tizzy but we work through it. Rapid fire questions are the questions we end each guest appearance with so things like who do you admire, what do you admire about yourself, what is your favorite book...so as you can imagine, we go down some fun rabbit holes (per usual). Enjoy!

#030 We are so excited for you to meet our friend and genuine gal, Kate Tichelkamp! We talk about life, work, our younger selves, the future, politics, and Kate's various areas of expertise. Kate lives in St. Louis, MO and is heavily involved in the nonprofit world. We learned so much from Kate and hope you do too! She truly has such an amazing perspective on life and she has such a care for others that really can be heard in her voice. You can find Kate on instagram if you want to interact with her more - @katetickelkamp. Enjoy!

#029 I bet you are thinking "change is an awfully broad topic, what do you mean by 'change'?" Well you are correct - it is a broad topic! We simply converse opening about the topic of change and I am sure we will approach the topic again. We get into it in terms of work, personal life, government, science and so much more. We scratch the surface of what the book and show "Lessons in Chemistry" offers on this topic. We talk through the needs of certain types of people and differences we see. What we wish for the world is to be good adopters of change and see the good it can bring. Question it in a healthy manner, sure, but come from a place of understanding and positivity. There is so much more to be uncovered here but I hope you enjoy our first go at it.

NOTE: Kami has trouble with her voice in this one, so if you notice some awkward pauses or clearing of her throat, that is why. Thanks for your understanding.

This one is a thinker and we are intrigued by it - Shame and guilt, are they good for us? What should we look out for? Is there a difference? We really look at it but we of course take some turns that are unexpected and getcha thinkin! We get into how Brene Brown really has a handle on this one and bring it back to a book of hers as well as the Real Self-Care book. Lots to chew on but an important topic that will probably continue to surface. Enjoy!

To start the new year off with a bang, we talk about owning your shit ...and some other stuff, as usual! When looking at mistakes, we pose the question of 'What's a healthy level of looking at the mistake and analyzing it?". We veer a bit off topic (but it's worth while) and we really take a dive into our initial perceptions of each other and have a sweet processing moment of our friendship. We tap into grief and what that process can look like. It's an interesting bag of tricks that we hope you enjoy! Happy new year!

#026 We revisit the self-compassion topic and dig around a little further on the topic. We felt we needed to circle back on the topic and continue the discussion. There are many view points on this topic and circle up on the book Real Self-Care by Pooja Lakshmin, MD. We get into the psychological benefits, the wrestle we have with this internally and a look at how to accurately judge ourselves. It's the nitty gritty, it's interesting and it's fun! There may even be a little Gilmore Girls talk in there...Enjoy!
