-Struggling SUCKS but it's also what makes us stronger.    -One of Lindsay's favorite quotes is…  Strength grows in the moments when you think you cannot go on but you keep going anyway.  -It's like how they say Billionaires kids have it the hardest.  Which sounds crazy but makes sense - if you've got it all - what's there to work for.  And with very little struggles, how to you get strong and tou...

We are exactly halfway through the year!   Lindsay likes the 2nd half of the year goal setting almost more than January 1st goal setting because it gives more of a tangible deadline.   It's hard to see a whole year forward but it's not as hard to see 6 months forward.   So in this episode, we're going a check-in.   Where are we at, halfway through this year and where do we want to be at the end of...

What is your go-to activity when you want to cope with a stressing situation or procrastinate on doing something hard?   What do you do when you don't want to be present in the moment?   What distractions do you allow when you're working with a task that is overwhelming or uncomfortable?   Most of us spend a good chunk of our life numbed.   Doing things without intention that don't really make us...

Do your people really KNOW how you feel about them?   Like do they know how much you love them and why you love them - all of it?     One of the biggest lessons learned in the last month is how important it is to LOVE YOUR PEOPLE HARD.     It's just so easy to get caught up in routine and the daily to do's and before you know it, the day is done and it's time to sleep then do it all over again.  ...

Lindsay tells the story of her husband going into cardiac arrest in the ICU a few weeks ago.  So much packed into this episode that we think will be interesting and valuable to you.  Lindsay talks about these lessons learned (and more)…    -Family is amazing, the best!  And you can double that feeling by finding friends who become your family too.  -When it comes to your health and the health of t...

It's so much fun to throw a party… especially kids parties, but one downside is that it's SO MUCH WORK to set-up, followed by the party- lots of fun but for a relatively short period of time, followed by the clean-up.  It's really easy after it's over to feel bummed that it's over or wonder if all of your hard work was worth it! I have 3 hacks for this. 1. Plan so that you ENJOY the party- not wor...

Lindsay does podcast episodes often about focusing on what really matters and not letting the little things bother you… because she thinks that it is so important to realize that you have to protect your emotional health at all costs.    When you go through stress and trama and drama… your body remembers it and keeps score, it takes a toll on you.  So we just can't let things in that don't matter....

This podcast episode may ruffle some feathers but hear us out on this. Over-protecting our kids can be one of the worst things we can do for them. But it's our job right - to protect our kids.  Protect our kids from harm... But… this has sort of overflowed into protecting our kids from being criticized by anyone, from bad grades, from a tough teacher or coach, from being outside alone… not only do...

66% - adults say that they are unhappy.  That's 2/3 of people walking around.  What!!    If that's normal - we don't want normal- we don't want to accept what's normal.   Today, we are taking about being different and not being afraid to do things differently.  Getting out of routine.  Routines can be great- but just the ones that serve us.  Not the ones that we keep doing just because we've alway...

Lindsay says…"I've learned to really hold on to 5 words in many situations.  And the interesting thing about it is, I use the same 5 words in difficult life moments and in the very best life moments."

Lindsay says... "I have to tell myself all the time - the goal here is 90%, not 100%. Which may sound backwards… in fact I want to give 110% to everything I do… but the reality is that when you shoot for 100 or 110%… you can't get to as many things and often never actually get the things done.    This feels very off brand to me, I have to be honest, but I really wanted to do this podcast because i...

Lindsay tells the story… "This past weekend as we were leaving a mother daughter luncheon, I was bending down to pickup all the things my girls had collected through the day and I looked up to see 3 moms looking at me then turn away quickly.  I was like that was crazy- they were clearly talking about me… so I processed for a second and picked up the rest of my things and turned to go and the same...

Today's podcast is about maximizing our time!  Specifically in the car.   To do lists feel never ending and the days feel so short… it's hard.

Now this is not to say you have to be fully productive every time you get...

We usually think about our daily movement and calorie burn in terms of our workouts.  How often we workout, what types of workouts, how intensely… but the truth is…. we burn more calories throughout the day than during our actual workout times.

We are SO busy. There is always something to do - what feels like endless to do lists.  We are often giving so much of ourselves to other people and your chores and your job.
