Two Broad Casters

The Two Broads this week share some reflections on Mother's Day and other "Hallmark" Holidays! How these holidays can trigger people and how it's important to carve your own days and reasons to celebrate.  Another cast basically on, custom fit your life; whatever that means to you.

What starts from an inspiration resulting from one of the broads gaining a new family member, the two broads meander the conversation into having  much to say about group identity and more.  Rest assured though that somehow it gets brought back to the beauty of family and how we can strengthen ours to foster individual knowing and identity vs being thrown to the whimsical wolves of the day and avo...

This episode finds us talking about coping skills. What are good coping skills?  How do people cope? What happens when folks aren't good at coping?  Coping is another one of those really important skills that most humans missed a class on. We are not born with coping skills so it is not a bad idea to draw attention to this topic.  Nobody likes to be around a person who has no coping skills; in fac...

Honestly, we all have super powers that we could all tap into more and one of them is the power of encouragement. The Two Broads have a conversation about how great it is to receive a word of encouragement and how encouraging others just manifests into better environments for us all as well as sometimes being just the thing someone needs to activate their gifts. Tune in, share and chime in on FB o...

Hard as it is to talk about the ripple effects of the trauma that narcissists leave in their wake, The Two Broads dive into the topic.  Both broads have had their experiences with this type of toxic personality and it isn't easy to recover from; however it is very possible if you choose to realize that recovery is vital to one to have not only a full life but one that gives you an upper hand in li...

Do you have a mentor? Do you mentor someone? Is there enough mentoring happening? Are people increasingly becoming more unteachable due to triggers? Do you think you are above a mentor and know enough? Do you wish you had a mentor in some area of your life? Is there a difference between mentoring and role models?  The Broads ask a lot of questions for a good discussion on the importance of mentori...

The Two Broads are back recording after a two month hiatus and ready to chat!  Sarah just finished her latest novel and her head space was very much into the afterglow that comes from finishing something.  That, is where the cast takes us; the discussion and hopefully the encouragement to "get it done".  Starting is big, finishing is a multi-layered reward.  

Sarah and I had a ball together in Cabo Pulmo.  It is a memory we will both treasure.  We sunk into the scenery, nature, the environment.  We also sunk into some deep conversations as friends; one of them which led to this.  Raw and many things not said, buckle in.  It's important we discuss all the forms of addictions, isn't it?  Here's your conversation icebreaker friends.

While spending a week together in a magically little village the Two Broads recorded four podcasts and this one is all about where they found themselves.  A visual mental vacation to share and perhaps a place to put on your to go list.  Enjoy!

For the first time ever the Broads share the microphone while in Baja to have a conversation with Alex Gutierrez.  Alex is the overseer of the diving operation at Cabo Pulmo Beach Resort.  Alex is a great conversationalist and our time with him went into cultural differences, creating a life you want to live and more. Tune in!!

Join the Two Broads where they are together in Baja and recording in person for the first time! Enjoy Sarah's take on her new surroundings and the vibe she gets from the place and then....buckle up because the Two Broads find themselves getting pretty vulnerable regarding the topic of trust and trust issues.  A real mixed bag of emo on this one Broad Band!

In this episode the van broad recorded from a very special place in the mountains in Baja California.   In describing the place where Lauri was camping the conversation turned to hospitality, cultural differences and more.  A fun cast with important takeaways!

Hello Broad Band! A quick cast this week about something we should all try to put the flame out on; worrying.  Honestly, we know it is a monumental time waster so what gives? Join us for this reminder for the new year that this activity will waste your year in a mighty way. Join us and join us on Facebook and Instagram to be part of a conversation.

This episode starts with Sarah bringing the jokes; or did she? Weigh in. Then the broads go straight to the topic of self awareness.  Does it seem like there are more and more people lacking a healthy dose of self awareness?  How self aware would you rate yourself? How comfortable are people around your personality? How comfortable are you in your own skin? How well do you know what makes you tick...

The two broads recorded this in November in anticipation of the van broads journey and wanted to have a cast reveal our favorite things about our year.  A fun episode and we encourage the broad band to pull some of their favorite things about this past year.  It's uplifting, silly and motivating for a New Year!

Great episode on the flaws of our communication and listening skills; in particular in our most important conversations.  Join the Two Broads as they trigger each other by holding up mirrors to our bad conversational habits. Important topic and we hope you tune in!

A quick episode reminding us all that self care is very important and should be scheduled in with priority.  You can't give what you don't have; a true statement.  Join the broads for this episode.

In this episode the two broads have a frank discussion on aging and hopefully shed some perspectives that run counter culture to our youth and beauty obsession.  Why do we spend so much our time lamenting wrinkle free skin when there is so much more to do with our age that could be so much more healthy for both ourselves and society at large.  Don't miss this one.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all! On this episode the Two Broads discuss the fact that a practice of gratitude is truly a great foundational life tool.  It is an emotion that has so many benefits for our daily lives and is a gateway for deeper spiritual connection.  Join us for this gratitude primer for your Thanksgiving and beyond.

As one of the broads get prepared to live in a van in Mexico for a spell, she found herself under the stress of stuff, which led to the two broads taking a deep dive into the discussion of our relationship with the material world.  The connections of "stuff" in our time, finances, space, and all the things that go along with too much stuff.  This episode lands on advocacy for simplifying our lives...

Don't miss this episode about the fear of missing out.  Salty truth bombs about how being obsessed about what you are missing out on is making you miss out on all that is the best life has to offer.  Ironic right?  The Two Broads cover this topic from a point of genuine concern. 

The Two Broads discuss what they feel is a very important step for tapping into our creativity, our authentic feelings and well being; silence.  How often do you turn everything off?  How often do you commune with nature without headphones in?  How can we even know ourselves with all the noise and distractions the world serves up?  And, you get the added bonus of catching us not knowing the record...

In this episode the two broads, both home education veterans, share some insights for anyone thinking of, or newly in, the home education process. There are some practical tips in here but more importantly they bring a lot of encouragement and a discussion that should make anyone entering this feel a lot less stressed about it.  It is all about creating a healthy mind set towards a wonderful goal...

In this episode the Two Broads get fired up about one of their mutual loves; travel.  In this you will find a very deep and broad discussion about what traveling does for one's life, the perspectives gained and what travel can look like.  And it wouldn't be a cast with these broads without some sideline discussion albeit this one actually loops back pretty well to the discussion at hand. 

What is the thing or things you most find yourself putting off?  Do you make excuses about why you aren't doing it?  Does that make the idea go away? If not, it probably means it is the thing you should finally prioritize into your time.  Bye bye excuses; let's go!
