The Taylor Made Podcast

We thought it might be fun to celebrate our 30th episode by going on another trip down memory lane, past when we first met to talk to our 18-year-old selves. 

What would we say to them? What wisdom would we pass on? And, what can our present selves learn for our 18-year-old selves? Listen in for a poignant and surprising reflection on our lives so far and for some ideas on how to reflect on how far you've come!

We have the lovely Sam and Sarah with us again this week to give Adam & I our first Tarot reading! With no prior experience with Tarot, how will things turn out? 

Will us two sceptics find any truth in the reading or will we be pleasantly surprised to discover some fun advice and direction from our past, present and future? Listen in to find out!

We're so happy to have kicked off our everyday Aussie interviews with the amazing Sam & Sarah. With 10 years together under their belts, they have a lot of wisdom to share with us and stories to tell. 

They take us on their journey from meeting at uni and falling in love, to what it takes to make a 21st-century relationship work and what brought them to where they are today. We had a blast recording this episode and can't imagine a better way to kick off our Everyday Aussie series! Thank you to Sam and Sarah and also our amazing listeners who keep us inspired every week!

Last week we talked about our hang-ups around money and how we learned to deal with them in our relationship. This week we're building on that and talking about how we manage our money as a couple and what's worked for us to stop money being at the centre of every argument! 

Let us know if you have anything to add! IG: @thetaylormadepodcast & @danikkataylorwrites

We've been talking about doing a money episode for a while and now we're finally sitting down to do it. 

This episode is split into two parts because there are two important discussions to have around money. Often, people forget that there are a lot of emotions and stories we tell ourselves about money. We call them our money hangups. I'm sure we got that from somewhere, just not sure where. 

So, this week we talk through how important knowing your money hangups and communicating them with your partner is, before you can develop any sustainable money management system. Let us know what you think!

Living so closely together for most of 2020, as many of us are, it can be super easy to magnify the most annoying things about each other and lose sight of the best things about the person that we're with. So this week we did a little exercise to get some laughs and remember the best things about each other. Make sure you let us know how it goes for you with the people you're stuck inside with! 

P.S Misty makes her opinion known in this episode, too!

It's no secret that 2020 has been a strange year. Our favourite recurring meme to come out of this is people making videos of themselves barely noticing an alien invasion - that's just 2020, right?! Whether we like it or not, we can't time travel out of this, so we gotta sit tight. And sitting tight is not something the modern human is very good at! We know we're not the only ones to be experiencing some sort of painful metamorphosis during this time, but this is just a little check-in to let you know what's been going on with us, and we hope you take some comfort from it and we'd love if you could reach out and let us know how you've been going as well. We're all here for each other.

So, we have an idea based on our own experience and the experiences of multiple people we've talked to. Being with someone for over a year in a society with the average attention span of a toddler is no small feat, let alone reaching the three-year mark. But we've noticed something interesting - many modern relationships seem to crumble or almost-crumble when they reach this point! In this episode, we talk about what happened when we were around our three-year milestone, and what we think this trend could mean. Because, surprise surprise, we have a theory!

It's hard to write the show notes this week because we feel like we were talking about so many big things all at once. But in a nutshell, only you get to decide what success means in your life. Before, during, but especially post a pandemic (we're not there yet, unfortunately, but when we are...) we think we should all be letting go of the generalised 'success' checklist enforced on us and be focusing on creating our own. Come have a chat with us about that, because we, as always, have a lot of ideas!

This episode we discuss our Enneagram results and what we think about our results and the test itself. We have a lot of fun pointing out the parts that we think are accurate for the other person and swallowing some harsh truths about our personalities - the truth really does hurt sometimes!!

Here are the links to all the personality tests that we discussed in this episode, the Color Code is the one most similar in style to the Enneagram.

Shower thought of the week: Having a full meal at three in the afternoon feels completely different to having a full meal at three in the morning.
