    Vulnerability Episode: Miscarriage

    In this deeply personal episode, Katie opens up about her experience with her miscarriage. This is not an easy conversation, and it may be triggering for some listeners. Katie and Sam want to acknowledge that the topic of pregnancy loss can evoke strong emotions, so please proceed with caution if you think it might be difficult for you to hear. Though this episode is heavier, it’s an important conversation to have. Katie and Sam believe in the power of vulnerability, and hope that by sharing their journeys, they can help others who are going through similar experiences feel less alone. If you’re ready to listen, we encourage you to tune in, but please remember to take care of yourself first. You are not alone. Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussion of miscarriage and loss. Please listen with care.

    Pearls of Wisdom: Cheese and Strangers

    What do Tasty, Paneer, Haloumi and Mozzerella all have in common? Besides that they’re all cheeses, they were spoken in length on today’s episode of Pearls of Wisdom: Cheese and Strangers. Katie and Sam are not promoting Stranger Danger. Instead, this episode shares heartwarming stories, including their own friendship origin story, of strangers becoming friends. And how leading with your heart makes for special interactions in places you might least expect. We couldn’t agree more with the Girl Scout’s motto, “Across the ocean, across the sea, friends forever we will always be. Make new friends, but keep the old one is silver and the other is gold”. Go outside your comfort zone and make a new friend today (after listening to this episode, of course)!

Things looking a little too colorful for you? They've got just the thing: a stylish new sunglasses brand—perfect for blocking out any political glare. Put in the calendar to support Katie and Sam in 2028, as they share their own campaign slogans—the world needs more SodaStream and glitter on the ballot. Come for the politics, stay for the puppies!

    No Income, No Healthcare

    In this episode of Life's Grape, hosts Katie Shannon and Sam Merryfull dive into the rollercoaster of career changes from their two different hemispheres—Maui, Hawaii and Sydney, Australia. As Sam prepares to leave the stable job he's held for over three years, and Katie juggles four part-time gigs, the duo shares their candid thoughts on the uncertainty, excitement, and hilarity that comes with funemployment - and why quitting your job is the absolute best. With their signature humor highlighting topics like travel (to New Zealand), Katie's favorite burger spot, Betty's Burgers and why it's better than the American version (In n Out) and what it's like to become a manual laborer, they explore the ups and downs of making bold moves and what the future holds. This feel-good and lighthearted conversation reminds us all that while career shifts can be daunting, but they can also lead to unexpected adventures and laughter!
