MINISODE | How to Conserve Energy and Consume Less show art MINISODE | How to Conserve Energy and Consume Less

Day in the Life

This week I chatted with who is a meteorologist and I loved his simple advice on how we can all make a big impact on our environment by making small changes in our daily lives. When it comes to making a difference with the effects on our environment, it can seem like a huge daunting task and that there's no way minor changes can't help but that's so not the case! Every little bit adds up and it can add up to massive change. While I do feel like I'm already doing a lot to help conserve energy (we have a smart thermostat, energy efficient appliances, use LED lights) there's always more I can...

MINISODE | Let's Boost Our Moods by Drawing! show art MINISODE | Let's Boost Our Moods by Drawing!

Day in the Life

This week I chatted with who is obviously a creative and artistic genius. I made it clear how much I lack the skills to draw or be artistic in any sort of way, but after last week's minisode about stopping myself from saying that I "can't" do something, I'm trying to change my language and how I speak about my drawing skills. I then started looking into how drawing can positively impact your days -- and boy, I found a lot of research on this! Tune in to find out how drawing can boost your mood and positively impact your day to day life!   Full show notes at: Links mentioned: ...

MINISODE | What's Something That You Feel Like You MINISODE | What's Something That You Feel Like You "Can't" Do?

Day in the Life

This week I chatted with Sandy and Jeni from and our conversation got me thinking about how people approach things they feel like they "can't" do. It was eye-opening to me that neither Sandy nor Jeni had a software engineering background, yet here they are, creating an incredible software company. Like, have you told yourself your entire life that you "can't" do something for one reason or another? I know I have. I've told myself "I'm not athletic" "I can't draw" "I'm not smart enough/experienced enough to do XYZ" While I'm certainly not going to be the next Michael Jordan or Picasso, I...

Day in the Life

Today's interview is special because it's another double interview! We haven't had one of those since interviewing . Anyways, I'm interviewing Sandy Connery & Jeni Barcelos who are the founders of a software company called . Sandy & Jeni did NOT have software engineering backgrounds at all when they started Namastream and as two female founders of a tech company, I thought it'd be great to get their insight on their struggles, successes and a peek inside what it's really like to run a software company. We chat about the major challenges bootstrapping a tech company (they did not get...

This week I chatted with and it really got me thinking about stuff and why we hold on to it.

Day in the Life

Today's minisode we're talking about other people's perceptions and if you care too much. This week's interview with may have been a polarizing one for you guys, but I wanted to continue the conversation by talking about other people's perceptions of you and if you care too much. Here's the thing: we all to some degree, for the most part, compare ourselves to other people. It's a natural, human thing to do. It's also natural to care about what other people think about you. It's not necessarily a bad thing, to some degree it helps you be self-aware which I think is an important quality in...
