    GRWE016: A Get It Together Dialogue

    Taking accountability for our actions is crucial, especially when it comes to fulfilling our responsibilities and commitments to ourselves and those we care about. It's all too easy to make excuses or prioritize short-term gratification over long-term goals. So, it's time for a reality check and a call to action. We need to be honest with ourselves. Are we truly prioritizing what's important to us? Are we making excuses or actively working towards our goals? It might be uncomfortable to confront our own tendencies to procrastinate or waste time, but it's necessary for personal growth and progress. Let's stop making excuses and start taking meaningful steps towards being more accountable to ourselves and those who matter most to us. So, here's your gentle push: Get your act together. Set goals, prioritize your tasks, and hold yourself accountable for your actions. Your future self and your loved ones will thank you for it. Get Your Bleep Together Cake Get Ready with E

    Let's start it off Nice and Easy. Most of us are not hiding our money in secret crevices of our homes, but we are trusting financial institutions with our hard earned coins.

    GRWE012: A Gathering Dialogue

    "It's the most wonderful time of the year," right? But what truly makes it wonderful is coming together with our loved ones. As we enter these upcoming months, I hope you can celebrate joyfully with those closest to you. For those whose loved ones are no longer with us, I encourage you to celebrate the life, love, and lasting impact they've had on your life. While these gatherings bring joy to the spirit and maybe a little indulgence to the waistline, it's also a time for making plans and tending to important matters. In this 'Passing Dialogue,' we emphasize the significance of utilizing these precious moments to broach non-seasonal topics such as health, taxes, insurance, and family property. While these subjects should never overshadow the primary purpose of togetherness, these gatherings provide a unique opportunity to address these matters collectively, rather than waiting for a funeral or will reading to do so.

    Ever heard of the 'back forty,' home parlors, or Thomas Holmes? What do they all share in common? They are all elements tied to the past era of home funerals and burials in the 1800s. Fast forward to the present day, and you'll discover that much has evolved. Significant changes have taken place, particularly in the level of guidance provided by federal and state governments concerning burials and embalming. In this "Passing Dialogue", we delve into the historical evolution of these practices and the relevant legislation that has shaped our approach to end-of-life rituals in the United States.
