    Control vs. Influence: How to Stop Adding to the Chaos and Return to Inner Wisdom

    In a world that feels like it’s moving faster than our nervous systems can process, it’s easy to get pulled into the chaos. This episode is a pause. A reset. A call to return to inner wisdom. In this week’s Guided by Third Wheel, Amber and Jill talk candidly about what’s happening in the world right now and how quickly fear, reactivity, and polarization can take over our relationships, our communities, and even our activism. They explore the difference between influence and control, how “virtuous” behavior can still be a form of manipulation, and why trying to force outcomes often creates more division instead of healing. Jill shares a powerful passage from the Alcoholics Anonymous Big Book (Step 3) that reframes the urge to manage the “whole show,” and connects it back to social work concepts like natural consequences and avoiding power struggles. This episode is for anyone who feels flooded by the news, overwhelmed by conflict, or caught in cycles of arguing, fixing, or performing “right action.” ✨ In this episode, we explore: Control vs. influence and how intentions can get distorted Why “being right” can still create harm and division The temptation to manage outcomes instead of focusing on the input Natural consequences and the social work reminder: don’t engage in power struggles How to step away with compassion (not superiority) Choosing inner wisdom over external noise Reducing chaos instead of adding to it We close with an oracle pull: a reminder that the sacred is not outside of you. It’s within you, always available, even in uncertain times. 💻 Want to work with us?

    Welcome back to Guided by Third Wheel , today we’re bringing you Part 2 of our conversation with Taylor Mavrakos, financial advisor and host of the Tailored Wealth podcast.

This episode is for anyone who has ever felt like financial literacy is “something everyone else knows,” especially in spaces where money conversations feel classist, intimidating, or taboo. In this episode, Taylor breaks down: Why financial wellness is not just for “rich people” The core concept: your money should work as hard as you do A simple exercise to list your debts + interest rates (awareness first) Emergency fund rules of thumb: 3 months (two-income) and 6 months (one-income) Debt payoff strategies: snowball vs. highest-interest-first “Deploy your soldiers” where they’ll win: how to think about interest rates and opportunity cost How to hire a financial advisor without shame: account minimums, what to bring, what to ask Red flags when meeting an advisor (including pressure to sign same-day) Why “get rich quick” investing and crypto hype often isn’t worth the time or risk Side hustle and 1099 realities: taxes, write-offs, withholding, and why many people get surprised in April How to know if you’re being paid like a contractor for employee work What to consider as a social worker or public servant (including loan forgiveness tradeoffs) We close with a Secrets of the Ancestors Oracle pull: Creature of Air (Speed) , a reminder to slow down, get aligned, and make intentional financial choices instead of pushing forward on autopilot.

    Trusting Yourself Through Change: Reflection, Growth & New Beginnings

    As one year ends and another begins, reflection becomes unavoidable. In this episode of Guided by Third Wheel, Amber and Jill slow down to look back on the year behind them. The growth, the grief, the fear, the pivots, and the moments that asked them to trust themselves in new ways. They talk openly about depression, overwhelm, career shifts, identity deconstruction, leaving familiar paths, and the discomfort that comes when you stop living for external validation and start listening inward. ✨ In this episode, we explore: How lived experience builds self-trust and emotional resilience Why reflection (not age alone) creates wisdom Personal accountability vs. systemic realities Letting go of identities that no longer fit Choosing to be the main character in your own life The fear and freedom of making big pivots Internal vs. external validation End-of-year energetics, completions, and new beginnings The episode closes with a Soul’s Journey card pull, offering guidance on what we learned in 2025 and what we’re stepping into in 2026: health, trust, and moving forward with more ease. This conversation is honest, grounding, and deeply human; a reminder that growth doesn’t mean life stops being hard, it means you learn how to move through it differently. Want to work with us?
