It’s pretty exciting!

Ep 81. Clean Your Room
166
Today’s topic is that gentle nudge we all need: Clean Your Room. If you’re like me, you tend to go in cycles. I’m pretty good at keeping things clean, but now and then I get thrown off my groove and I need to get myself back on track. I’m sure if I went back and closely looked at the patterns in my life I would see a correlation between times of my inner turmoil and the times I let my spaces fall into disorder. I’m willing to bet it’s the same with you and we’re going to get into reasons behind that today.

Today we’re exploring a universal experience that often gets a bad rap: boredom. Picture this – it’s a lazy afternoon, the clock is ticking slowly, and you find yourself staring at the ceiling, unsure of how to fill the time. Maybe you have so much going on that your brain shorts out for a while. So you avoid everything and boredom from the monotony of your routine sets in. It’s a mental state we’ve all encountered, and while it may seem mundane, boredom shapes our lives in surprising ways. We’ll go through it all.
Ep 78. Synergy

Ok, Synergy, what is it and why does it matter in our daily lives? Synergy is the ultimate team-up, where different elements come together and create something way cooler than they could on their own. It’s like when you mix peanut butter and jelly – sure, they’re great on their own, but together, they make a perfect sandwich. Add ice-cold milk and it’s heavenly, right?
