2026/01/07

In this episode of These Are Good Days, we’re skipping the 2026 resolutions and leaning into our favorite role as "hopes and dreams setters" instead. We’ve never been big on resolutions because the "failure" of breaking them is a total downer, so we’re focusing on self-improvement and the steps that lead to a brighter year. This time around, we’re dreaming about saying "yes" to more opportunities, traveling to new places, and making space for new friendships. We’re also talking about the importance

2025/11/19

We often tie celebration to big achievements, but what if it's really about the simple, intentional act of acknowledgment? We get honest about that sneaky little voice of jealousy that sometimes makes us withhold a high-five, and discuss why practicing celebration anyway—even when it’s uncomfortable—is important. Celebration is contagious. It’s intentional time set aside for honing in on someone—who they are or what they’ve accomplished—and it promotes a kind of magnetic joy. THE SHOW NOTES!In our
