We all know the negative effects of social media, but hopefully the way we discuss it can be interesting, entertaining, and most importantly helpful.

In this episode, we dive into the mental cages we don’t even realize we’re living in — the habits, assumptions, and internal scripts that keep us stuck. Beyond the conventional sense of freedom, sometimes we're the ones who hold ourselves back, particularly with our mental processes and state of mind.
What does it mean to truly think freely? Let's find out ;)

Join us for an episode where we share some stories where we feel like we should have known better and handled the situation differently. You may relate or take something from it; worst case scenario, you laugh with/at us.

Sometimes bad habits have been around for so long we start to believe that they're part of our nature. In this episode, Gali and Avi discuss recognizing these bad habits and how we've fixed ours. Questions/comments? DM us on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/lifelessonthrift/
Some of us are perfectionists. That means that when we do something, it's usually pretty darn great. The issue is that we take forever to do that thing because we can always make improvements... It's never good enough.
Avi and Gali talk about finding that balance between optimizing (looking for the very best) and satisficing (settling once a certain minimum standard is met). Questions/comments? DM us on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/lifelessonthrift/
A classroom is usually pretty heterogeneous, so when a teacher recommends study strategies, he/she has in mind what will probably work for the most amount of students. Gali and Avi are usually the odd ones out. We have certain attributes and tendencies that make the "typical" study strategies ineffective. Maybe you can relate, and maybe us sharing how we study can be of help.

Sometimes we like to make life difficult. And we're not saying this sarcastically. Imagine you have a job for which you're way overqualified. How would you feel? In this episode, Gali and Avi discuss through personal experiences our desire to realize our potential, even if that means making life more challenging.

2 things to take away from this episode:
1) Even when you have your phone stolen, miss your train, etc., you still have control of the situation. (We know, easier said than done, but we have tips)
2) Don't travel with Galit

"It's not me. I'm definitely not the problem."
We get you guys; we've been there. But playing the blame game is only fun for so long. There are times in life when it feels like the odds are stacked against us, and all that's left to do is wait for life to tip the scales in our favor.
Even in those moments, though, there are usually steps we can take to better the situation, even if it is just by a bit.
Give this episode a listen for tips because you don't really end up a winner in the blame game.

In this episode, we introduce our motivation for creating this podcast and speak a little bit about ourselves. We've gone through a variety of experiences. Maybe you can relate to what we've gone through; maybe we've been in a situation you're currently in. We hope that by sharing, you can take something from our experiences and figure out that whole "life" thing just a little more quickly.
If you have any questions/comments or have a topic you'd like us to talk about, we'd love to hear from you!
