This week, join Skye and Beth for a rollicking conversation inspired by Jay Shetty's bestselling book "Think Like a Monk." We get curious about what motivates us to start something or make decisions. Are we seeking the promise of a desired outcome or can we appreciate the experience of the process?
Pop open your favorite seltzer, and please pardon our potty humor this week as we meander through unfinished art projects, childhood 4-H failures, fear of judgement... (and step in a little doody on the way)!

You know those people in your life that know just where to push your buttons? They get your hackles raised and your teeth bared!
Well, be a honey badger no more! This week, Skye and Beth talk about how to respond to challenges, arguments, and provocation. Pulling from a recent Mel Robbins Podcast episode we loved, with guest Jefferson Fisher, we discuss healthier, happier ways to communicate when we feel provoked.

This week Skye and Beth talk about choosing collaboration over competition with special guest Amanda Cox, leadership coach, trainer and keynote speaker with The Know Better Company. You ever feel like you've got to scramble over the top of someone else in order to grab at your piece of the pie? We get curious about whether that scarcity mindset really helps us to achieve our goals or just creates additional fuel for that critical, nagging voice inside our heads!
Pop open your favorite generic seltzer and join us for a conversation that wanders into competitive dance, sharing toys, the job search, and public toilets.
