Do you ever look around and think, I feel rich?! We aren't talking about anything that costs lots of mullah, but the richness in your life that makes you smile or brings joy. Let's take inventory of our lives, be mindful, slow down, and think about the things we have in our life that are a true privilege. Join us as we take inventory of the things in life - both ordinary and extraordinary, that are making us feel rich!

If you've been around These Are Good Days for any length of time you know that we are pro counseling and pro mental health. We truly talk about it frequently - not because we are experts, but because it's helped us both! In this episode we talk specifics about how counseling has helped us - and our hope is that it would encourage you to find someone as well! Lee Ann often says, counseling has saved my life and this conversation may just give you the nudge you need to make that appointment.

Feeling pulled in too many directions? This week on These Are Good Days, we're talking about the revolutionary act of saying no.

Whether you're setting healthy boundaries or simply being authentic, learning to decline one thing means you can confidently say yes to the things that truly bring you joy. Tune in for an encouraging, honest chat about owning your time and doing what really matters.

Let's be real—life is way too short and too heavy to be serious all the time! We're talking about embracing whimsy: that perfect mix of taking your job and life seriously, but definitely not taking yourself seriously. We'll chat about simple ways to lighten up, like genuinely playing with your family or finally making time for that weird little hobby you love. Whimsy isn't just a mood; it’s a hack! It keeps your brain sharp, puts some distance between you and your problems, and helps you connect with people on a deeper, better level. Time to chill out, laugh more, and remember that being a little silly is a sign of a life well-lived.

Our words have the power to speak life or death - not only to others, but to ourselves. We've all been there - the mantras of self doubt and the cycle of shamed thinking. But, what happens when we break those patterns for ourselves, and how does that impact our relationship with others? Where do our words come from anyways? Join us in this conversation all about the life or death that comes through our words.
