What we discuss this episode:
Things we’ve noticed about ourselves while recording; ways that we annoy kids; ways we act like kids; things that force us to be grown-up.
We also talk about how often life keeps us from the plans and get togethers we need, how often we reschedule and cancel on the people that are important because we are close and they will understand. How can we keep from doing this? How can we guard this time?
We reference GiG031 "Slow Day"
and the concept "Design Your Summer" in the Happier Podcast
