I Do, We Do Billy and Ashley

We love assessments over here. On past episodes we have discussed the DISC, Enneagram, Love Languages and Myers Briggs. In this episode, we dig into the Energy Leadership Index which enables leaders to hold up mirrors to their perceptions, attitudes, behaviors, and overall leadership capabilities. We hand the show over to special guest, Claire Becker who walks us through our results just as she does her coaching clients.

It has been a year since our little guy, Lincoln was born. In this episode, we reflect back on the episode we recorded in the delivery room as we waited to welcome Lincoln to the world. We shared our hopes and dreams for our son a year ago and now we share updates on how things have gone. We also break some BIG NEWS! Happy Birthday, Lincoln! We love you, even though we didn't plan for you!

Josh & Elisha are truly a couple who does it all. They run multiple side-hustles in addition to working full-time and parenting. There’s nothing this couple can’t do! Listen in as we chat with them about how they support one another in their businesses, the process they use for setting and adjusting goals, and their debt-free journey.

The pandemic has caused some unusual things. Social distancing? Conspiracy theorists? The uptick in “uncoupling”? We’ve found ourselves on different pages in two major parts of our lives. With the extra time, we each invested it in different ways. For Billy, it has been his career. For Ashley, it has been parenthood. Investing time in these areas has also left the other behind - hence, we are on different pages. Listen in as we replay the first conversation we had about this and how we are already working through this.

We have a bone to pick with the Golden Rule - treat others the way you want to be treated. It is a rule that is engraved in our brains from a young age, but we think it’s wrong. ESPECIALLY in relationships. Listen to this episode as we upgrade to the Platinum Rule - treat others the way they want to be treated.
