 Too often we equate being successful at work or growing our client base to requiring whatever it takes to move up to the next level. But good work relationships do matter. No one gets a pass for being an asshole. Not every relationship is a good fit, but being an asshole is a non-negotiable. Life is too short to work with assholes.

It is a common theory that to be your best person is to be humble, definitely not vain. And is a level of vanity bad?

How do we distinguish between self-care and vanity?  Amy and Sandy dig into this topic and share their "vain" moments.

Taking responsibility for your mistakes can be hard.  No one is perfect, you can tell when people are not stepping up, there is an appreciation for people who do take responsibility, comfort in knowing mistakes are ok.  We are at our best when we can create a safe space for ourselves and others to come clean.

  Why do we feel so inclined to parent under The Life Script Model?  What does stepping outside the life script look like?   

 “There is an overwhelming desire for people to follow the ‘life script model’. When people break it, it becomes very noticeable.”~Kate Bowler. The concept was introduced to us when listening to a Kate Bowler “Everything Happens” podcast. She talked about it from the perspective of a cancer patient and facing death. The Life Script Model resonated with us as individuals and as a parents.

Just like the classic line from "Harry Met Sally", people too often chase happiness by wanting to mirror others. Sandy and Amy discuss the misnomer of trying to achieve this Sally zen by duplicating actions and lives in a quest to obtain the same. “I’ll have what she’s having” seems so simple an ask. Yet just like the humor of this movie moment, it is rarely a reality.
