    MINISODE | How to Conserve Energy and Consume Less

    This week I chatted with Sean Sublette who is a meteorologist and I loved his simple advice on how we can all make a big impact on our environment by making small changes in our daily lives. When it comes to making a difference with the effects on our environment, it can seem like a huge daunting task and that there's no way minor changes can't help but that's so not the case! Every little bit adds up and it can add up to massive change. While I do feel like I'm already doing a lot to help conserve energy (we have a smart thermostat, energy efficient appliances, use LED lights) there's always more I can do so I want this week's challenge to be all about conserving more energy and reducing my consumption!   Full show notes at: http://dayinthelifepodcast.com/minisode30 Like the show?

With all of the hurricanes, wildfires, polar vortexes happening across the US, I thought it'd be interesting to bring on a Meteorologist to talk about what a day in their life is like!

Excited for you to tune in and hope you enjoy!   In today’s episode, you'll find out:   What it's like to work as a local network meteorologist. Sean's thoughts on climate change and how it's related to polar vortexes. What a polar vortex actually is and what causes it.

    MINISODE | Let's Boost Our Moods by Drawing!

    This week I chatted with Emily Mills who is obviously a creative and artistic genius. I made it clear how much I lack the skills to draw or be artistic in any sort of way, but after last week's minisode about stopping myself from saying that I "can't" do something, I'm trying to change my language and how I speak about my drawing skills. I then started looking into how drawing can positively impact your days -- and boy, I found a lot of research on this!

    MINISODE | What's Something That You Feel Like You "Can't" Do?

    This week I chatted with Sandy and Jeni from Namastream and our conversation got me thinking about how people approach things they feel like they "can't" do. It was eye-opening to me that neither Sandy nor Jeni had a software engineering background, yet here they are, creating an incredible software company. Like, have you told yourself your entire life that you "can't" do something for one reason or another? I know I have. I've told myself "I'm not athletic" "I can't draw" "I'm not smart enough/experienced enough to do XYZ" While I'm certainly not going to be the next Michael Jordan or Picasso, I can, in fact do some of these things, I just don't try because I won't be the best or the expert at it. Of course, this is perfectionism peeping it's ugly head into my subconscious again and I'm sure many of you may feel the same. It's uncomfortable to do new things but to quote marketing expert Seth Godin, "fear is a compass, not a barrier. It becomes a way to know what to do next, not an evil demon to be extinguished." Tune into this episode to find what you can do to start doing that one thing you feel like you "can't" do, but have always wanted to.   Full show notes at: http://dayinthelifepodcast.com/minisode28     Like the show?

    Sandy Connery & Jeni Barcelos | Founders of Namastream Software

    Today's interview is special because it's another double interview! We haven't had one of those since interviewing World Travelers Lisa & Peter Hoppe. Anyways, I'm interviewing Sandy Connery & Jeni Barcelos who are the founders of a software company called Namastream. Sandy & Jeni did NOT have software engineering backgrounds at all when they started Namastream and as two female founders of a tech company, I thought it'd be great to get their insight on their struggles, successes and a peek inside what it's really like to run a software company. We chat about the major challenges bootstrapping a tech company (they did not get venture capital funding), the specific challenges facing female entrepreneurs in tech, the biggest barriers they've had to overcome, misconceptions people have about working in the tech industry, advice to young women who want to work in tech and so much more. As always, you can join in the conversation with other Day in the Life listeners in the Day in the Life Facebook group!   In today’s episode, you'll find out:   The major challenges of bootstrappng a tech company with no venture capital funding.

    MINISODE | Why Do We Hold Onto Stuff?

    This week I chatted with Professional Organizer Megan Mangione and it really got me thinking about stuff and why we hold on to it. I researched a bit further into why we hold on to stuff, even when we feel cluttered, overwhelmed and disorganized. I'm definitely guilty of this and what I found through researching is exactly the reasons why I hold on to things. During this episode, I'm sharing what I found after diving into some research onto why we hold on to too much stuff and how I'm clearing out the physical and mental clutter in my life.
