We Can Do Pod Things

Coming to you with a shorter than usual episode where we unpack Glennon and Amanda's discussion of the book Burnout by Emily Nagoski and Amelia Nagoski, which of course Annalyse has "read" (listened to) and has some feelings on. If you haven't heard of the Nagoski sisters and/or their work check them out here www.burnoutbook.net. Even though their work is focused on women or female identifying folks they have plenty of data and science relating to how stress and systems affect the entire spectrum of humans that everyone should hear.

We touch on some attachment theory content we didn't get to last week and continue with Dr. Becky Kennedy's appearence on We Can Do Hard Things where she breaks down Internal Family Systems (aka the movie Inside Out IRL). Annalyse also mentions Whole Brain Living as developed by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor. Check out our instagram for some graphics if you're a visual support lover @We_Can_Do_Pod_Things

As soon as Annalyse heard there was an episode of We Can Do Hard Things about Attachment Theory she was allllllllll over it. Both Annalyse and Emily find Bowlby and Ainsworth's work to be instrumental in explaining why we act, react, and think the way that we do in addition to why we choose to love the people we do. Don't get it twisted though, we also talk about sex, attraction, and Al Gore just to keep it interesting.

Emily's choice for this week was WHEW! It hit all the nerves, in the best and worst ways, because two things can be true at the same time! Come for the talk about liberation, both of self and others, stay for the trippy effect we get from talking about how everything is connected. Or maybe just Annalyse's low blood sugar? TBD.

We discuss all things Sara Bareilles after listening to her episode of We Can Do Hard Things, and can we just the adimration society is very active here. Returning to yourself, loving yourself, and loving others so genuinely that you sit with them in the dark all make an appearance in this episode.

Since Annalyse has been living Eat, Pray, Love IRL for a while, Emily suggested an episode on Liz's appearances on We Can Do Hard Things. This episode is about all things Elizabeth Gilbert, including content from other forums, too. If you're looking for two middle aged women talking endlessly about healing journeys, have we got a podcast episode for you!

Chelsea Handler's raw appearance on We Can Do Hard Things freshly post-breakup was a compelling episode for both Annalyse and Emily, but as listeners are probably surpised to hear, Annalyse has a LOT to say about breakups and what she learned from experiencing her own.

Tricia Hersey's presence on We Can Do Hard Things is Emily's FAVORITE episode, and we FINALLY got our shit together to talk about it. Who doesn't need an extra reminder to rest, make time for oursleves, and re-embody ourselves after the holidays and as we enter into the new year?

On this special bonus episode we give the people more of what they want! From our very first meet cute to answering questions to test our knowledge of each other, this episode is less heavy and more fun. We hope you enjoy it! 

We wrap up our discussion on cults and unwrap our holiday gifts to each other in this very casual, laid back episode.
