2022: Our Year in Review

Mon, 09 Jan 2023 22:00:09 GMT

We spend a great part of our lives living in the future, sometimes in the past, but very rarely in the present. This year taught us a great deal of how important it is to live in the present moment. We spend this episode taking a trip down memory lane of what this year really meant and how much we learned, grew, fought, cried, laughed, and explored ourselves. Join us as we talk about what a wild and chaotic ride 2022 has been.

Budgeting & Planning

You can tell we are excited about this taboo topic because it means a lot to us in our late 20’s.

*Disclaimer - We are not financial professionals and nothing said in this episode is financial advice. We are two women figuring out financial freedom and sharing it with you.

⚠️SA, Incest, Self-Harm, Death⚠️

We play a new game dealer's choice. Where one of us gets to choose a topic to discuss and the other shows up without notes and to discuss freely. Jocelyn’s dealer's choice was SPICY. With everything happening in the news with women's rights, Jocelyn finally decided this topic was just what was needed to start dealer's choice off on the right foot. We had stayed pretty quiet, but we discussed our role and the impact that our platform could make by educating people on the things that we know and why this was so important to us to speak up. Strap in for a hot debate about Roe V Wade and all the reasons were against this decision.

Instagram Post: https://www.instagram.com/p/CVGWB4VorO4/

Merriam - Webster says : having the quality or power of producing especially in abundance or yielding results, benefits, or profits

4 laws of habit forming from Atomic Habits by James Clear

Make it obvious
Make it attractive
Make it easy
Make it satisfying

Productive Hacks from TikTok Creator: @jennifer.lynn.life

Change the way you talk to yourself

I should've known better…
I did my best with what I knew at the time.
I'm being lazy.
Rest is productive.
Why does this always happen to me?
What is this teaching me?
That was so stupid of me.
That was so human of me

Sometimes productivity comes naturally, stay aware and take advantage

Difficult Conversations

Mon, 18 Oct 2021 21:00:00 GMT

Having difficult conversations is never easy. You have to prepare yourself for unresolved issues and agreeing to disagree. The reason Alyssa and Jocelyn talk about this topic is because of a new book Alyssa is reading, Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most by Douglass Stone, Bruce Patton, and Sheila Heen. They discuss having those difficult conversations in the workplace and in their personal lives between friends, family, and spouses.

Link for Book Recommendation

Amazon Kindle - Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most by Douglass Stone, Bruce Patton, and Sheila Heen

Alyssa’s Topic Points:

Keep Goals Realistic
Reduce the Assumption
Look at the Underlying Feelings and Emotions on Your Side and Your Partners
Don’t Cut People of When They Are Speaking
Don’t Be Afraid of Silence. Everyone Processes Things Differently
Deduct the Actual Conflict. Your Not Mad About the Project Details You’re Wondering if it’s Worth Worrying About
For the Resolution
1. It’s Not in Your Actions it’s in Your Thinking
2. If You Only Strive for Improvement in Actions and Not What to do With the Behaviors You Will Continue to Fail
3. Working on Reducing Fear, Anxiety, Whatever the Emotion is and then Managing the Remaining Problems is Usually a More Attainable Approach

Jocelyn’s Topic Points:

Listen Up - Be Fully Present for the Other Person in the Conversation
Be Clear About How You Feel and What You Want Out of That Conversation
Look at the Issue From Their Perspective - Step Into Their Shoes
Take a Break/ Table the Conversations - If Nothing is Getting Resolved or You’re Feeling Numb Finish the Conversation There Until Another Time
Agree to Disagree
Look After Yourself
Look. After. Yourself.

Perspective

Mon, 20 Sep 2021 21:00:00 GMT

This weeks episode is all about perspective. Jocelyn, Alyssa, and Branden share their perspectives on sex, growth along with the male and female gaze. They explore these topics with openness and a willing to see the other side of things. Join them as always at 5pm every Monday.

Male & Female Gaze - male gaze coined by film theorist Laura Mulvey in her essay “Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema.”

Male: seeing a person in the male view (ex: Jessica Rabbit / Megan Fox - transformers) hyper sexualized, often objectifying women

Female - focuses on fine details, small gestures

Ex: Loki vs. Thor, Harley Quinn in suicide squad vs. Birds of prey @allisonsipe_autho

"As the theory originates in film, the idea is that a piece of media has three potential male spectators: the filmmaker, the male characters in it and the viewer watching the film. The same goes for literature and any other form of storytelling.

Even her trauma isn’t solely her own, but perhaps a pivotal moment for the male protagonist’s plotline" - sarah gudenau https://studybreaks.com/thoughts/female-gaze-male-gaze/
