The Feelings Club

Sally's in her basement in Vermont, where her and her family now live on a commune and working farm. Patty's in her closet hiding from her one year old baby. Let them keep you company as they try and dust off the cobwebs.

For the final episode of 2020, let's talk about the holidays! The expectations, the pressure, traditions, toxic family, boundaries, seasonal depression and more.

What are boundaries? Why do we need them? What does healthy boundary practice look like?

It's been a while! Sally and Patty haven't spoken in a bit either, so they spend some time catching up, and then reflect on their women's retreat back in October.

As a theme Sally cannot escape no matter how hard she tries, and one that Patty is inching towards every day now, they thought they'd take some questions, advice and thoughts from parents, parents-to-be and everyone else with something to say on the topic.

Sally (a.k.a. Rocket) and chapstick side effects, plus a new rowing machine. Patty says no to an employment opportunity, but is mentally better when she's got things to do.

A quick update on watering plants with tears. Patty's unpopular opinions. Sally's love of conflict. Conflict = Opportunity for Growth!

...and glad it takes several months to cook a baby. That is much needed time to process some very important and valid fears around this very big life change, but this experience can be so healing!

In this episode, we're talking about money and how it effects our mental health. Why is this topic so triggering for some? We'll go into Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE's), Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, positive and negative cognitions and more.

Sally has a "future exercise" which may help people make decisions based on their own intuition.
