Wham Bam thank you ma’am! This episode is all about continuing to truck on when it feels real hard! I **get** that a lot of my episodes seem to be about that, but can you blame me?! I mean, freaking life! It can get you down, and it’s easy to start believing that our dreams, or our hopes are silly, selfish, and will never come true.
So I am sharing my major life shift, a key perspective that I have changed, that has truly changed my entire EVERYTHING! It hasn’t been easy—and I need lots of reminders and learning along the way, HA! But I’m sharing it with you, as I struggle to believe it for myself, but can clearly believe for you!

In this episode we answer these listener questions & more!
** ”With the new year upon us, I have historically always fretted over setting goals and resolutions. I’ve found as that I have become more “me” and forgiving and loving of myself I have NO desire to set goals or resolutions this year. Do you grapple with this? Thoughts?”
** “I want to do ALL the things! How do I pick one to start with?”
** “How do I grapple with wanting to LIVE and feeling like I need to be more responsible? I’m 26 with 2 babies- nowhere near being able to afford a down payment but possibly able to buy tickets to japan in the next year! I want to do it so bad but feel so stupid for maybe making 32 year old me angry for not buying a house. Is owning a home everything in this life?????????”

Here’s the problem with being a human, we all have feelings, and big emotions, as well as small emotions—and most of us have no idea what to do with them! If you’re like me, you were raised by the baby boomer generation, who was taught that you shut down those feelings and shut up about them, and that didn’t really work, did it?
Luckily, Alyssa has a fantastic new book that is going to help us not only learn how to understand and regulate our own emotions, but help us do that with the next generation as well! It’s called “Tiny Humans Big Emotions!”
I cannot emphasize enough how important I think this perspective and work is and I am so grateful to Alyssa from @seed.and.sew for creating and sharing it!

Holy freaking crap, you read that right, Eric and I get to talk to Bob and his daughter Erin Odenkirk about their new book of illustrated silly poetry: ZILOT! Bob, yes from Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and so many other incredible projects, shares his wisdom from a lifetime of creative work, and how to pivot and grow along the way. Erin drops truth bombs of wisdom and shares how she’s learned to release her art into the world, and in general we have one hell of an insightful and delightful time!

No matter WHAT happens in this crazy world, we have access to our inner world! It can be a place of peace or panic. It can be somewhere we retreat and hide or a place of comfort! It can both or all or none! So the question is: what’s your inner world like? How are you doing IN THERE?! And also what does this even mean?! Eric and I are exploring this idea, what it means to us, and why cultivating a rich inner world actually makes the whole world better! We’ve got 6 actionable ideas and a whole lotta love!
Eric's closing song is from his new podcast "The Men Who Love God" which you can listen to or watch here!

Anger! Such a fun emotion! Well, I mean it’s fun for people who like to get mad, but for people who feel like anger is something to be fixed, corrected or avoided…it’s not that fun, right?
But there’s a lot of anger in this world! And it doesn’t look like it’s going away, so what are we going to do about it? Or rather what do we do with our anger?! What can we do?
In this episode, I am sharing several years worth of observations about learning to embrace and work with my anger, why it’s a very necessary thing for every human person! I’m sharing some resources that have been really really helpful for me! I hope you enjoy! I hope it helps you feel peace (or rage?!) and I read an angry poem I wrote as well! Such fun! I’m sending you all the love!

174: 15 observations from 15 years of marriage!
Well LA TI DA! We’ve been married for 15 years! And in the grand tradition of this podcast—that we’ve been doing for about five of those 15 years—we are sharing some of our insights and observations from being married for a freaking long time😂.
Whether you’re in a committed relationship or not, whether you are looking to connect with friends and family more, or just looking for how to be more true to yourself as you interact with other people…these 15 observations are going to be really helpful! And fun! WEEEE!
We’re so grateful to be able to share these insights, and mostly so grateful that we get to experience this life together. Both with each other, and with you! All the love friends!
