Diana is solo today. First off its officially the anniversary of 1 year of The Peak And Pit podcast! Diana gets into her peaks and pits of the week including a little recap of their trip to Vietnam, and a little bit of the pits that come along with living overseas. She then gets into her and Tyler's current situation of being ready for what's next, and getting quite antsy about it. She dives in to a current Christmas example of how many people relate, and what she herself is doing about it right now. She gives both her and Tyler's tips and experiences on being mindful of the present and enjoying where you're at even if it's not exactly where you want to be right now.

Husband is back for another episode of The Peak And Pit. After a little catch up with "vacation Tyler" they get into how they've made the most of holidays in the past spent living abroad, and therefore away from family. They understand how it can be difficult feeling sad during this time of year when you're used to being near family. So they're diving into ALL of their favorite traditions they've brought with them from home to home to make the holidays feel like they did when they were children, no matter where in the world they are.

This girl went to the Maldives and hiked Mount Everest base camp and saved nearly $7,000 doing it! You bet it was a quick decision to get her on the show to explain it all. Diana and Robyn begin with a Little Korea life chat talking all things skincare, squadron life, and slightly smelly streets. Then they get into all of Robyns knowledge to travel for less, or even for free using points from credit cards. From points on grocery cards, paying rent, and especially hotel rewards, they get into it all.

Disclaimer: if you do not have a good relationship with money, or a budget skip this episode. A solid foundation of how to use credit cards without going into debt is key before using these tricks.

We also get into how to deal with feelings of resentment toward your military member, perspective shifts, finding the blessings amidst challenges, how "knowing what you signed up for" is no match to actually feeling what it feels like to live "what you signed up for," and so much more. You're sure to find some amazing takeaways in this episode. Don't forget to DM me your takeaways and leave a review my friends! For a more detailed look into the episode, here is a minute by minute breakdown of the show:

Diana is solo today chatting about all the things. She's breaking down her college kid yet simultaneously a grandma era, she's letting you in on how melatonin might turn you into a literal witch, and everything in between. Which brings us to this week's topic: the autumn season and what it means for us humans. Everything in nature has a period of rest or hibernation in order to grow, why don't we humans allow ourselves that time too? The time is now my friends. Listen in on why she thinks everyone needs a hibernation period, a period of reaping what you sow, and the mindset shifts we need to make it happen. For a more detailed look into the episode, here is a minute by minute breakdown of the show:

1 - 12 The peaks and pits of the week.
12 - 16 The topic of the week: hibernation season & being a rigid routined person.
16 - 22 A conversation about the perception of another’s life, and seasons of life. 
22 - 33 Taking time and space for the present. Soaking up the benefits of the past 9 months of building. 
33 - 39 Initiating this for loved ones who can’t & how we’re actually doing this. 
39 - 43 Value of the week and dressing like yourself.
