Is procrastination killing your good vibes? Jul 01, 2019

Show notes

We all procrastinate. It is one of the most impossible things to avoid, sometimes we all need that sense of urgency to kick in so we can transform into our best selves, but other times it can lead to stress and negativity.

Carling and Patrick posit the effectiveness of their unique procrastination tactics, and wonder if there may be some upside to deadlines and urgency. With the baby-countdown in full effect, they admit it might have actually be easier to get ready mentally and spiritually, than it has been physically.

The Perks of Doing Nothing?! Jun 27, 2019

Show notes

The illusive art of doing nothing. In a world of stimulation and perpetual busy, should we really be seeking out idle time? Patrick and Carling discuss how the impetus for this conversation came from a Tyler the Creator song, how maybe we were all actually a bit more mindful back when we were teenagers, and wonder if its possible to truly give ourselves permission to do nothing?

Game of Thrones: Do Emotions or Logic Rule the Realm? Jun 20, 2019

Show notes

As long time fans of Game of Thrones, Patrick and Carling take time to talk about the show, the perspectives it brings up, and wonder whether emotion or logic are the keys to the kingdom both on and off the screen. Sure, it's pop culture, but all the very best creations offer us moral quandaries and divisive narratives - which ones we identify with is it what its all about.

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched GOT, then this probably isn't the episode for you. If you don't like GOT, then this probably isn't the episode for you either ;)

You Can't Do It All, and That's Ok! Jun 17, 2019

Show notes

In this episode we discuss the pervasive messaging that we should be able to "do it all" and how that affects our notions of control, worthiness, and living in the moment. What does it actually mean to "do it all" and why do we think we can, or should be able to anyways?

Patrick reflects of the difficulties of feeling out of control even in simple unexpected daily situations and Carling wonders if shes actually following her own advice or if she has succumb to the modern woman's expectations of "having it all" while setting expectations for her recovery from childbirth.
