Ep 99: Searching for a Best Friend (A Conversation with Heather Adams) Jan 12, 2021

Show notes

This episode is for anything who has gone through a friendship breakup, or who desires finding a best friend as an adult.

Every week on this show I encourage you to take the prompts and topics to a best friend in order to have a deeper conversation and better connection. But what if you don't have a best friend? What if you used to have a best friend but now you don't and that pain still lingers? What if you want a best friend, but have no idea how to find that person?

This conversation with Heather Adams about searching for a best friend is tender for both of us. I just became acquainted with Heather in 2020, because she is the CEO and founder of Choice Publicity, the firm helping me with the Share Your Stuff book launch, but when I heard her podcast episode on This Intentional Life about her quest for an adult best friend, I knew I wanted her to talk about it on 10 Things To Tell You.

Ep 98: How To Start a Book Club Jan 05, 2021

Show notes

This episode is for anyone who wants to start a book club!

**Have you purchased my new book Share Your Stuff. I'll Go First? If so, SIGN UP FOR PREORDER BONUSES HERE.**

People love the idea of being in a book club, but I think most of us would rather join an already formed group, with procedures in place and a warm and fuzzy vibe already established. But if that isn’t readily available to you, guess what the next best thing is? Start one yourself!

It doesn’t have to be an overwhelming task. You don’t have to have a lot of people (really!) and you don’t have to have a perfectly articulated theme or objective. What you want to do is read, and then talk about what you read with someone else. It really is that simple.

But beyond that, it’s nice to have some basics:

Identify your WHY
Choose members wisely
Decide on some logistics (like how to choose a book, who leads the discussion)
Set expectations early
Have your first meeting
Adjust as necessary

Sure, there are some details that can be fun or tedious: choosing a schedule, consistent communication), but start with the fundamentals, keep it as simple as possible, and figure out what REALLY works for your group.

Ep 97: Top 10 Takeaways from 2020 Dec 29, 2020

Show notes

This episode is for anyone reflecting back on this bizarre year and trying to find some silver linings.

Well, it’s been a YEAR, right? One for the history books.

But in this episode, I’m not looking at what 2020 will mean for the world at large, but I am sharing my top 10 personal takeaways. What I learned in my business, in our family, how we consume entertainment, and so much more.

I hope that hearing my main takeaways from this bizarro year makes you think about your own. What you’ll remember, what will never be the same, and the lessons that will bring you closer to the person you want to be.

Ep 96: Book Club's Best Books of the Year 2020 Dec 22, 2020

Show notes

This is always one of my favorite episodes of the year!

My real life book club friends Yasmin Dunn and Stephanie Newman-Smith join me for a long and lively conversation about some of our favorite books of 2020.

We talk about how the pandemic affected our reading life and why our book club didn’t meet for 7+ months.

Before we share some of our favorites, we also use the episode as a bit of stand-in for our regular meeting and you can hear us discuss our December book club pick A Burning by Megha Majumdar.

Then we each share 3 or 4 of our favorite books of the year. Because I had already shared most of mine on earlier episodes, I was really excited to hear Yasmin and Stephanie’s picks, since they were outside the box of what we’ve already talked about on the show in the last few months.

I do plan to do a BONUS episode in the last few days of the year, talking through a few more interesting books I read in 2020 that didn’t make it into this conversation.

Ep 94: Don't Be A Zombie (A pep talk for your intuition) Dec 08, 2020

Show notes

This episode is for anyone who has struggled in 2020 to listen to their intuition.

These words are for myself as much as they are for you. In this year of uncertainty, of noise, of conflict in relationships, of missteps and self-doubt, I have come into this holiday season unable to tap fully into my own intuition.

I’m sharing about:

WHY we need to listen to our intuition now more than ever
HOW to listen to our intuition when we’re new to the practice or need a reset
ANXIETY and intuition and how it’s often hard to discern the two (but I have one failsafe method)
RELATIONSHIPS and intuition

Ep 92: Holiday Movies and Holiday Hacks (A conversation with Mary Carver + listener voices!) Nov 24, 2020

Show notes

This episode is for anyone who needs to get into the holiday spirit.

I’m so excited to kickoff the season by talking about holiday movies with Mary Carver from Hooked on Holiday Movies. But confession: I’ve never watched a Hallmark or Lifetime holiday movie! So everything Mary shares with me is a pleasant surprise, and she might have even convinced me to give these movies a try.

However, our conversation is framed around holiday movies, but we actually talk about so much more, including how we talk about romance stories with our children, and also diversity and inclusion in consumer Christmas culture.

At the end of the episode, we hear a batch of listener-submitted holiday hacks - everything from keeping track of your gift list to carving out time for yourself.

Looking for gift inspiration? My Not A Gift Guide gift guide comes out this week via the Secret Posts. Make sure you’re on the list!
