    Finding Time to Talk About Social Media Worries

    Welcome to the 11th episode of the Finding Time podcast where we finally talk about our main concerns surrounding social media and will subsequentially post about it on social media!  Our main focus is on 2 of the biggest critics of tech & social media: The Social Dilemma (2020 Netflix Documentary) and non-fiction book The Anxious Generation (from Dr Jonathan Haidt).  In this compelling episode, we go beyond the surface and question the ethical implications of technology's impact on our own minds and our children's minds. Most importantly, we talk through all the ways tech hurts our kids and what we as parents can do about it.   It's not all doom & gloom, but we need to start a movement of parents because the companies and systems around them (financial and political) will only lead us further down a spiraling drain.

    Finding Time to Talk about Personality Types & Love Languages

    Welcome to the 10th episode of the Finding Time Podcast. For a special occasion, Chelsey mostly leads this episode and the power clearly goes to her head as she tries to have some fun at Dan's expense. Today we delve into a  the intricacies of personality types, love languages, and how they impact our day to day relationships with our loved ones, family members, and coworkers. Our main word of caution is that this topic is fun, but never let a test result define you. These traits and skills are meant to guide and inform your decision making, not control your life or define you too narrowly.  Laugh with us as we dig into the 5 love languages and try to guess what our own languages are (both are very obvious).  Hopefully this is both informative and entertaining to help you along your growth journey and allow you to be more self aware of your own psychological tendencies and blind spots!
