E27 - “You won't find what you're looking for if you're hiding from yourself”
Mary says the best things and this just rang so true for what we have all been working through these past months. We know it’s been a minute since you’ve heard our voices but sometimes all the life things just take over and we have to take a step back. But, we are always poised to pick this project back up because it is important and we all love it so much. This episode we are discussing what has been keeping us more internally focused for the last several months, because the quiet doesn’t mean we haven’t been soaking up and living our lives the best way we know how. And honestly, isn’t that the goal? Enjoy the “psychological unfurling,” as Lisa so eloquently said it, that has been our lives over the last six months. Stay to the end to find out how Mary snaps herself out of nightmares and sleep paralysis. It really is that kind of an episode.

E27 Move over FOMO - The FODO episode
FODO = Fear of Disappointing Others. For Traci and Lisa this episode could also be titled “Relatable”, because, man, do we feel this one. Traci’s therapist has been helping her with this particular struggle and shared a super helpful article that we are now covering for the pod. If you want to read the full thing, and we do highly recommend it, click here (https://nickwignall.com/fear-of-disappointing-others/). Huge thanks to the mental health professionals out there taking care of us.
We hit all the tips in the article and discuss how we use them in our own lives, the paralysis and shame that can come along with even the thought of disappointing someone else, the ways we have found to cope and overcome some of the more impairing parts of this sensation, and posit the question: What if we started caring more about disappointing our future selves than people around us? It’s a good one.
At the moment we are sitting pretty happy in discussions of things that matter to us, but we will be starting Persepolis, both volumes, soon. The other item soon to be released, will be our book list.

E26 Bath rituals, you don’t have to be pretty, and celebrating the end of relationships that needed to end
Post wrap up from our previous book, we are taking time to purge before we start a new book. Lisa starts us off with a talk about the benefits of establishing bath rituals, Traci is still in happy pre-party baker mode, and Tori shares the growth that comes along with ending a relationship that didn’t work for her. If you’re curious what these settled in chats feel like, you should absolutely join us.
We have two more purge episodes coming up before we start to cover our next book Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi.
