Human interaction is a basic need, so in this episode, Christina and Meghan talk about why it's important to find a community when you're in a hard season of life, and how you can go about doing that (even for introverts!)

When you have lost someone and then go through the lowest lows of grief and then someone close to you loses someone, you know what's ahead for them. That can leave you feeling triggered. It can stir up those hard emotions. You want to be supportive, but you also have to take care of yourself, too. In this episode, Christina and Meghan share some recent losses they've experienced and how it reawoken some of the hard emotions for them, but not without laughter and Meghan forgetting we did a whole freakin' episode on this already. Classic M. (How long into widowhood can we claim "widow brain" for forgetfullness?)

Christina and Meghan share some ways to take the power back on hard days - holidays, anniversaries, or other important days that might be difficult to get through after losing someone or even a break up or divorce. Hard days will happen, and sometimes days like Valentine's Day shine a beacon on the fact that your person is gone. We know the feeling, we get it, and we're here to share our methods for getting through it. Take control where you can - buy yourself flowers.

Christina and Meghan share some red flags to look out for at the beginning of a relationship, and Meghan sprinkles in some real life examples from her dating days. You may spot these red flags in someone you're dating, your new coworkers or boss, or any type of community you're entering, or maybe it's something you're already a part of and now you can see these behaviors for what they are. Don't just take our word for it, do some research! The moral of the episode is: never settle. Don't give your energy to someone who doesn't respect it. Keep your head up, you're worth it.

Christina and Meghan introduce "minisodes" this week. Think of it like a quick shot of espresso as opposed to a latte. In the inaugural minisode, we discuss goal-setting and how to set a SMART goal, plus we share a couple of our own goals for the year. Setting goals was one of the major ways we pulled ourselves back up after being knocked down by grief, so if you're in the trenches we are here to cheer you on as you pick yourself back up and grow into your new life. Not everybody is setting a goal to climb Mount Everest, and that's okay. It's great, even. Your goal should be YOUR goal connected to YOUR why.

Christina and Meghan found a huge benefit from consciously setting intentions after their husbands died. Whether you're talking about a daily practice or you're going into a family event or a difficult workday, setting your intention for the event ahead of time can remind you of your control in the situation, and can set you up for a positive experience. Isn't that what we all want?
