The last episode of Season #2! As we mentioned last week, we'll be taking a 1-month break in between seasons before coming back for Season #3 in April.

So, to celebrate the end of our second season, have some fun, and mix things up a bit, we use this week's episode to do a little Q&A; each of us came to the taping with 5 questions for each other--questions that we hadn't seen beforehand--and simply asked each other those questions (and obviously, answered them) on air. The goal of this little Q&A? To allow you to get to know us better {as if you don’t already know a lot of weird + intimate things about each of us and our relationship!} and to share a snapshot of where we are in our lives as the season ends. 

Thanks for listening to this episode and Season 2! You can view the shownotes and comment at StarrStruckRadio.com

In this week’s episode, we’re talking about thought patterns--specifically negative thought patterns that we both {ahem, Ben} struggle with and then some ways to turn those negative thought patterns into positive ones.

In particular, we discuss our experiences with negative forecasting, pre-paving and manifesting. What is pre-paving? What exactly is manifesting? Listen to the episode to find out ;) 

As always, thanks for listening! You can learn more + view the shownotes at StarrStruckRadio.com.

In case you missed our big news elsewhere, let this episode serve as our official podcast version of the announcement: Mary Catherine is pregnant. We're having a baby!

Thus, obviously, this week's episode is all about this upcoming change: how we got to the point where we both felt ready to start trying for a baby, what the pregnancy has been like thus far, how we’re both feeling about having a baby + about life after baby, and more. Get ready for an episode full of vulnerability, honesty, excitement, anxiety, and quite a few laughs...as per usual ;)

This week, we're talking about the challenges of trying to do it all (or have it all) and the fact that doing everything well--or up to your ideal standards--simply isn’t possible.

We get into this topic by sharing the ways in which we each face this reality every day in our own lives, and how we only see it getting worse as our family grows over time. To close the episode, we share some thoughts on how you can train yourself to let go of the things you simply cannot get to and how you can start to make more conscious choices about how to use your time and energy doing what matters most.
