Shower Talk! w/ Tina and Norm

Well, are you?? Are you avoiding things you need to deal with by keeping your head stuck in the sand? Putting blinders on doesn't make the issues go away, it actually just makes it harder to deal with and take longer to correct and heal from whatever it is you are avoiding! Don't be an ostrich, be a proud peacock!! Theme song written and recorded by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

Yes, we talk about a cookie ornament, but it is about the miscommunication we had via text, about the ornament! Taking the little bit of extra time when texting, emailing or posting on social media goes a long way to preventing a misunderstanding or even hurt feelings!

Do you need to mend the fences after a disagreement or falling out with a friend or family member? Hell no! It doesn't matter what anyone says you SHOULD do, it's about YOU and doing what's best for YOU! People don't always deserve a second chance, but if they do, it's when you are ready to allow them back in to your life.

We are talking about what it is when someone double's down on their BS and what it looks like, so that you can recognize it when it is happening! It doesn't always mean they are a bad person or just plain lying, but it's a pretty good indicator that something is up! Music by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

Bath Bomb is back! We discuss all of the couples, the good, the bad and especially the ugly! We felt it was a great season for learning about relationships and growth! If you haven't watched the season or have been living under a rock, there will be spoilers!

Why do people put so much weight in what others have to say about their relationship/life choices?? "My mom's opinion is very important to me." Is your mom marrying that person, or even dating them? Getting some opinion is fine, but you have to make your own choices. If you are leaving it for someone else, you're transferring the responsibility to them! Knock that shit off! Music by Brendhan "Maes...

If you have to ask if it's cheating or not, the short answer is, Of course it is! In this episode we talk about a few scenarios and also share our own story of how we met!

This one isn't about your looks, so take that frown off your face! This is all about how being a good or bad adult affects your children! If your kid is difficult or spoiled or just plain 'challenging', you need to look at yourself and see if there is something you do that doesn't serve them well. Raise em up right people!

Temptation or Opportunity?? The 2 are their own things, but its how it is handled that is important! You can't cheat if you're tempted and there is no opportunity, and vice versa. Perspective and integrity play a huge role in what these mean to you as an individual.

80's movies were the best (and the worst)! 80's movies were full of a lot of truth for young people, and a whole lot of craziness, but we loved them! Did they teach us anything other than you needed to get the hot girl drunk to have a shot with her?? Or were they just a decade of ridiculousness??

School is starting and the kids are out of the house! What have you been doing to prepare yourself when they are gone for good?? Spending time on yourself and making effort to stay connected in your relationship is always a good thing and will set you up for success when the kids are out on their own!

People are weird. All of us. However, the ultimate goal is to find that person that matches your weird and live out your days happily! You can find your very own weirdo if you get out of your pre-determined ideas you have for a type and meet someone who likes to do the same goofy shit you do! Theme music written and recorded by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

This phrase is the ultimate description of complacency and acceptance. It also means you've possibly given up or you don't really know what to do. In the end, it's an excuse, and it's a terrible one, in our very humble opinions! Theme music written and recorded by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

We have lots of ideas as to why people say Marriage is Hard, but honestly, they do it to themselves. It doesn't have to be hard. The difficulty is created in the decisions you make in the relationship, and you can change it! An 'easy' relationship doesn't mean it is boring or not important. Theme music written and recorded by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

Do you know someone that is metering the information they give you, but professing how much you mean to them? Are you someone that is spinning plates and keep people in your life separate from others because you don't want them to find out what each other knows about you?? Well, this episode is for you! Put the plates down and go listen!! Theme music written and recorded by Brendhan "Maes...

People pleasing isn't all bad, but it's important not to allow it to the point of enabling and allowing people to take advantage of you and others. When it becomes enabling, it benefits no one! You can love people and treat them right without enabling them and hurting yourself!! Theme music written and recorded by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

You can't have it both ways! If you want to keep people at arm's length for whatever reason, your expectation for them to participate in your life, WHEN YOU WANT THEM TO, is unfair and a little dirty. It makes relationships messy, complicated and leads to even more unresolved issues! Theme music written and recorded by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

Ultimatums are bullshit. They are never a good idea. Forcing someone to do something they aren't ready to do is a recipe for disaster. Today, we talk about various ultimatums and some of the effects they can have on a relationship! Theme music written and recorded by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

Saying that someone is not the person you met could be entirely true, but it could also be entirely wrong! Did they actually change, or did you not hear them? Why did they change? What role did you play in their change? All legit things to think about and reflect upon so as not to repeat the same patterns! Theme music written and recorded by Brendhan "Maestro" Sears

Yes, you read that right. This is a more mature topic. So if you are offended by the use of the term Dick, you may not want to listen. BUT THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT! Stop sending pics of your junk to random people!! No one really needs to see it and honestly, you have no idea what effect it is having on the recipient. Zip it up and put it away!

How much should you be putting up with, after a breakup? And if you're holding onto things, why?!
