Whether it's tacos, Golden Retrievers, being out in nature, or finding an adorable coffee shop - we all have something (or things!) that bring a smile to our faces no matter what kind of mood we're in. What are the simple joys in life for you? What can you count on to make you feel alive even in your darkest hour?

On this week's episode, Gabe and Mikaela dive into those days or seasons of life that feel less lit up and how we might be a light for one another in those times. We'd love to have you be part of the conversation! What do you do to find the joy again when you're in those tough seasons?

We've all heard the saying "you can't give from an empty cup." And yet it seems like such a common occurrence. Why do we keep letting ourselves reach burnout? Why does it feel so hard to prioritize our own wellbeing when we're so quick to serve others? HOW do we actually make a change and learn to replenish our reserves before it's too late?

These are just some of the questions we're diving into in this week's episode. Come join us for a conversation and share in the comments what came up for you as you listened - we'd love to hear from you!

Let's talk about the power of story. This subject has come up in previous episodes, and this week we're taking a deep dive into it all with our guest, Margaret M. Story is an art form - whether in writing, music, daydreaming, baking... you name it! And story is also the way we can share life with one another. Join us this week for a great conversation about following what lights you up in a way that guides you to live the powerful story you're meant for!

How much of our lives do we REALLY have control over? There are times it feels like we have no control whatsoever - as if life is just happening TO us - and then other times when we realize we do have control - as if life is happening FOR us. Join us for a conversation around the spheres of control and ways we might release the need to control certain situations while also learning to take more control of the situations we can influence. This is a big topic that continues to come up for each of us, and we'd love to know what you think about it as well. Feel free to message us on FB or IG to share your thoughts!

Did you miss us? We certainly missed our conversations with you all! AND we're grateful for the break as we put into practice what we preach. During our hiatus, we celebrated our first anniversary of launching this podcast - YAY! - and also made some shifts in how we're choosing to show up, both for you and ourselves. As we've talked about in many episodes, living a life that lights you up requires choice. Because our desire & intention is to be having conversations with as many everyday humans as possible (working on learning more languages so we can let those floodgates open ;) haha), we've decided to move this podcast to a bi-weekly release. We want to show up well and sustainably, so we're creating the space to do just that. Moving forward, we'll be releasing live episodes every other Wednesday.

In case you missed our first full episode since the hiatus, make sure you check out last week's episode, The One About Earth School. And keep an eye out next Wednesday for our next full episode!

We're back from our hiatus and coming in HOT with a powerful conversation with Jess L. about what the heck we're doing here on this planet. What if we saw every day as an invitation to learn more? Viewing this life experience as a great adventure that comes with its challenges because that's how we learn & grow. Choosing to approach each day with the question, what do I get to experience today?

What a perspective shift, right?!

Come join us for this eye-opening chat and let us know what stuck out most for you. Feel free to message us directly on Instagram or Facebook - we'd love to hear from you!
