You've heard Bryan before and we needed to bring him to you again.

If you don't know who Bryan Saint-Louis is, what you need to know is that he had this brilliant idea that Radical Empathy is a concept that is missing in this world and we wholeheartedly agree with him.

He set himself on a mission to start spreading not just the concept of Radical Empathy in his day to day life, but he also goes around speaking it and teaching it in any way that he can. Bryan's program has gone from small gymnasiums within Alberta, to speaking globally in auditoriums and schools.

With everything going on in the world today and how isolated we can all keep ourselves from ever hearing or attempting to understand someone else's perspective, we wanted to bring Bryan back to help us spread the message about why, at all times, but especially in times like these, Radical Empathy is one of the greatest gifts that we can give back to society.

Our biggest takeaway from this conversation with Bryan, is that so many of us think that empathy creates weakness or that empathy removes consequence and we REALLY need you to hear that giving someone empathy does not remove the consequences of their actions, but it does release you from carrying a heavy burden and it shows the world that even when someone does us wrong, we can give them empathy and respect as a human and move on.

Thank you AGAIN Bryan for sharing your time and your message with us.

Grab a chair listeners and get ready!

Doesn't that title just give you shivers?

Knowing who we are AND then also knowing what we want to be in the world is a HUGE question that has all of us wondering what our answers are. It really takes some serious deep diving into ourselves to really figure out the answer to both parts of this question.

In today episode with Sarah Barnes-Humphrey we dive into what this process was like for her and how it inspired her to write her book I Buried Her In A French Press (which, we highly recommend you read - link below). The whole idea of the book was to help people discover this answer for themselves, but Sarah does a really great job of not just telling us where she was and where she is now, but also, many of the thought processes and insecurities she had along the way. Seriously, read the book.

In our conversation today, we obviously speak all about her book but also about developing self worth and where that comes from, how burnout can show up in our lives AND that sometimes it takes us awhile to figure out that we are in, fact, experiencing burnout AND, her story with Lipedema.

Sarah teaches us how we need to get curious about life because life is a journey and it changes the way we receive new information and solutions to some of our obstacles.

Thank you Sarah!

Well, we're here for another banter episode for your enjoyment.

Don't be fooled though. We preface with the idea that we are going to talk about perimenopause because, when we first started chatting, that's where the direction was headed. But then!

Melissa fills us in on some new systems she has been trying out in her home to help her mornings and days run more smoothly. With trying to get her kids out the door for school and still have everyone in a good mood, to planning her day to day and how she is going to get all of her tasks completed.

Melissa and Sammi dive into what these habits look like not only in action but how our brains need to rewire themselves. That sometimes, in order to change a physical habit and the outcomes it creates, sometimes, all we need to do is acknowledge what our mental state is around completing the habit, and rewire that.

Enjoy!

With Love,

Melissa and Sammi
