This week, let's talk about a listener's question, how we work, what we like about it, and how the work on this podcast plays into it. Also, why do Swiss people talk about their work hours in percent, why is Paulina sometimes unproductive at work and are we still friends?

How did we spend a weekend that was way too hot for this time of year but still lovely (actually not for Lia) and how are we going to make decisions this summer? Should we actually sometimes get up at 4 am or is that ridiculous? But also, self-praise does not always stink but is super hard and maybe needs to be trained a bit. Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Colorful Standard⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *...

This week we find ourselves talking about the same things again as many times. How to lead a healthy lifestyle both physically and mentally? How can we stick to our rules and intentions? And how could maybe learning more about dopamine help us with these? But also, how many push-ups can Lia actually do and when will Paulina get a new Bikini? Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Colorful Standard⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

This week we discuss how we celebrate Easter, how many push-ups we can do, and how we try to live a fit lifestyle but we also talk about jumping too far out of our comfort zones, how we set goals, and if we are achieving them because we are realistic or because we are smart :) Check out WAYKS ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HERE ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * to see their versatile and sustainable range of backpacks and luggage.

What kinds of books did Lia read? And how is Paulina's dating life going? Also, do we have a strategy to document our lives, apart from whether that is even important? In this week's episode we speak about do's and don'ts when dating, if anyone in 100 years is interested in our lives in our twenties, and how Paulina wants to go forward with shopping (or not shopping) for her closet...

Paulina made some exciting decisions and has a lot to look forward to now and Lia is a bit sad that some of her travel plans won't work out. But how will we be sure that traveling with friends is fun and we don't annoy each other? What can we hope to gain from traveling alone and how stressful can traveling with family and friends be? Most importantly: Where will we travel this year? Check...

This week we talk about exhausting days and weekends, how becoming an adult changed our perspectives on taxes, vacuum cleaners, and social plans, and about the fact that we don't have any responsibility to be pretty, and how much a noninclusive society is just making life harder for the majority of people.

Lia did something last week that she wanted to do for a long time, Paulina feels guilty for something she shouldn't have to and we both talk about going around in circles when learning something or wanting to change our lives. But one more question: Can women and men be friends? Let's talk about this question that somehow really lacks the sense of diversity in our society but also has way...

The dating drama doesn't stop and this time it gets extra problematic. We talk through the situations and try to understand and organize our thoughts and make sure that we are not blaming ourselves for abusive behavior. But also, how were our trips to Switzerland and the other side of Germany? Did the train connections work out and what did we spend our time with there? And how is the selectio...

This week we want to talk about several topics revolving around new things in our lives. Paulina started her new job, we both have a new hobby and we also want to share our opinions on Valentine's Day advertisements (and how it is maybe making us feel bad and is not sustainable..?) So we hope you enjoy listening to some nerdy details and recent moments :) Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Colorful Stan...

Today we are answering your questions and talking about why we buy things. Is it because we need them, because we want them, because someone has it, or because it was advertised to us? And how does it happen that we buy things we don't actually need or even want? Also, how can knitting help with conscious consumption? Check out WAYKS ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HERE ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * to see their versatile and sust...

Today let's talk about space, our own tiny insignificant lives, and shooting stars. But also about gut feelings, red flags, and insecurities while dating. So how can we find reassurance on this planet by looking at the stars but also in our own bodies and in relationships with other people?

It's been a full year since we started the » more or less « podcast! So today we want to reflect and reminisce a bit, talk about what we liked and what we wish for, and also share a bit more behind the scenes of recording and everything else that goes into this podcast.

Paulina went skiing on icy slopes and Lia went ice skating on dangerous natural ice. So what did we learn from that? Let's also talk about perfectionism and how it affects our hobbies and relationships and let's not forget the overthinking that keeps us from being brave and trusting in our abilities and also affects our relationships and being creative. Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Colorful Stan...

Today, let's talk about decluttering, shopping, and when these things are actually about the stuff we buy or get rid of. Because frankly, sometimes we manage our things in hopes that it would help us manage our feelings. How does that happen in our lives and how do we try to be intentional to avoid making decisions we regret in the long run? Check out WAYKS ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HERE ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ * to see th...

The new year has started, we are slowly (or abruptly) getting back into work and our routines and we want to share what we experienced during the past year and talk a bit about Paulna's first time in Switzerland and Lia's Christmas observations about money. But you also get an excursion into German languages and how expensive stuff is in Switzerland. Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Colorful Standard...

We wish you a happy New Year and to dive a bit deeper into what that would mean for us, we want to share our New Year's Resolutions with you and discuss what we want to have more of and less of in 2024.

Welcome to a special episode of the more or less podcast. Today we keep it short and share what we want more and less of in the next few days, our plans hopes, and fears for the time we spend with family and alone.

This week we want to tell you about our current lives and all the stuff that has been going on. About a job that happened much more suddenly than expected and about a giant dating drama that kept on messing with what we thought should be expected from personal relationships.

Today let's focus on the small stuff. What do we do every day that keeps us sane? How important are routines, sports, and friends? And is it normal to run away from our own lives a little bit or is the goal really to stay in the moment no matter what?

Winter is starting, Lia is thinking about cutting off her hair but is afraid of starting her new job with a different haircut and Paulina is wondering where the time went but had a lovely time with some puppies and already ate all her Christmas cookies.

None of us really wants to buy, own, and take medications, but many of us are very happy we have access to them when necessary. Today, we want to talk about how we try to keep our first aid kits minimal, while still making sure we have everything we need. How often do we declutter medication, how much do we keep at home and how much of what we have do we actually use? Check out WAYKS ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HERE ⁠...

Do you wish you were on vacation right now? Would you like to be more like the person you are following online? Or do you simply think your friends get to do more fun stuff than you? That is FOMO, the fear of missing out. And while I am sure we all experience it differently, some of us more than others, let's talk about how we deal with this phenomenon and what we do to not suffer from it :) P...

Paulina didn't want to buy anything this autumn and still, she bought a bunch of things. Lia is overwhelmed with the amount of new stuff in her life as well. So how do we set intentions when it comes to shopping, when are we happy about our consumption and what will we do now to make sure we only buy what we really need and want?
