2023/11/22

In this episode you'll hear: What is color analysis? Why are we talking about color analysis on this podcast? What are the different color seasons? What are the qualities of each color season?

In this episode, we did a deep dive on all things sourdough with Kristin Richard! We reached out to Facebook and asked our listeners what sort of things keep you from trying sourdough, hang you up, or confuse the heck out of you.

Could homeschooling be right for you?

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/10/18

In this episode we are finally diving a little deeper into the topic of homeschooling... more specifically, questions to ask yourself when considering homeschooling. I (Jen) came upon an article written by Little House Learning Co. She walked through 6 questions she felt were important to ask yourself to see if homeschooling could work for you and your family. We loved the idea of going through these questions with our own thoughts and take on it as a format for this conversation. We really enjoyed

When God Tells You to Move: A Candid Conversation...

2023/10/11

I (Jen) have been waiting to have this conversation with Anna Taylor for months now! Anna has such an incredible story, we honestly could have talked on 20 different things... but I love where this conversation went. God nudges... and then he slams doors. How huge life changes can look incredibly messy and feel painful, while doing beautiful, meaningful work within us. We adore how vulnerable and honest Anna is, and I truly hope you get as much from this conversation as we did. Enjoy! In

How to add hygge to this season

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/10/04

In this episode, we are kicking off Sammy's favorite season with one of Jen's favorite topics - HYGGE! What the heck is hygge, you may ask? Hygge is defined as 'a quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment and wellbeing' by Oxford Languages, but we like to think of it as making time for the simple joys of life - breaking away from the daily rush and grind to enjoy good times with good people. We're going to get into why we LOVE this concept and how it

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/09/27

In particular, we both want to open up about our experiences hitting the 'restart' button on friendships after we both moved across the country, explore the ups and downs and share our strategies that seem to be working (so far)! In this episode we'll discuss: Can you make close friends after college? The challenges of making friends as an adult in a new town The 6

Intro to Feng Shui | Lauren Bragg

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/09/20

In this episode, we are excited to talk about Feng Shui with our dear friend Lauren Bragg from the Feng Shui Collective! Feng Shui is 'an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance' (National Geographic). As Lauren states on her website, "Your space not only reflects you, it affects you". Join us today as we discuss how this practice connects to Millennial Pioneer concepts of slow living, intentionality, spirituality, mental

Mental Healh Updates

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/09/13

In this episode, we really felt the nudge to push pause on our usual format and have a candid chat about mental health, and where we are with our own journeys. We feel so passionately about normalizing actually talking out loud about mental health (much like we do about physical health)! Normalizing checking in with our friends and asking... "how are you, really?" In this episode you'll hear Sammy's struggles with moving to a completely new state, culture, and climate...across the country, away

Slow Living on Purpose | Alexis Girvan

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/09/06

In this episode we have our first interview, with Alexis Girvan, for a segment we would like to call "Millennial Pioneer Profiles". These are people we have met and know who are embodying this lifestyle that we have been diving into... intentional, value based, slow living, etc. So, in the spirit of this 'slow living season' we have been in, we can't think of anyone better to kick it off than Alexis, who has been teaching us how to 'relish the gift of rest' for years now. Alexis has always been

In this episode, slow living in the kitchen meets slow living debt free as we explore our personal journeys in making more frugal choices when it comes to the foods that we eat while trying to keep a nutrient-dense diet, sharing where we've struggled and what we've learned along the way... One of my biggest frustrations with podcasts and blog posts on the subject of saving money on a healthy diet has really been... that most of the time those diets were not healthy enough for what I value for my

How do the #zerowaste movement and #slowliving go together? Sammy and Jen break down their experiences with the zero waste movement, some of the darker sides of the movement (and what you can aim for instead), and how to get started reducing your impact on the environment in ways that can actually benefit you and your lifestyle as well!

How we became debt free

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/08/16

We finally have gotten around to doing an episode on slow living and getting out of debt! This has been a long time coming for us. We skirted around the conversation in episode 5 in season 1, "Keeping Up With the Jones'"... but we got to deep dive on the topic of debt and getting out of debt in this episode. In this episode you'll hear: How does paying off debt relate to slow living? How we both found ourselves in debt and just how deep were we? What the debt pay off journey looked like for

Slow Living and Anxiety

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/08/02

We actually had an entirely different episode planned, but after Jen texted Sammy with overwhelming feelings of anxiety... We decided to take a different turn with this episode. Anxiety is prevalent. There are more cases of anxiety today than ever before. It makes you wonder, doesn't it? In this episode, we talk about some modern day causes of anxiety, our personal experiences with it, and some ideas that have worked for us to turn it way down (and in some cases, off completely).

Cooking from scratch - slow living in the kitchen

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/07/26

I am loving the direction that season 2 is taking with a focus on "slow living". What better place to deep dive on this topic than heading straight to slow living in the kitchen. In our homes, the slow living kitchen truly is the heart of the home. Where full bellies equal love and affection. In this episode Jen and Sammy dive deeply into how we are using the kitchen as a vehicle to slow down and live a simpler, more present life (at least working on it, anyway)! In this episode “Slow Living in the

The Call to Live a Slow Life

Millennial Pioneers Podcast ·

2023/07/20

For season 2 of the Millennial Pioneer Podcast, we're feeling the nudge to talk more about "slow living". Maybe it's the high levels of anxiety we're experiencing as a culture, maybe it's the onslaught of "cottage core" and homesteading romanticization... but there is something that is nudging us all to slow down, question the status quo of "climbing the corporate ladder" and writing our own definition of the pace we think we should be living life, instead of society doing so. In this episode, we
