What's On Our Minds: February 2026

In this week’s episode, we’re diving into all the things currently taking up space in our brains — from ambitious reading goals and fantasy fomo, to the art of rethinking our opinions (inspired by insights from Think Again by Adam Grant). We also unpack the realities of convenience culture — how it shapes our time, habits, and expectations — and why we’re feeling the pull to slow down. That naturally leads us to thrifting: the thrill of the hunt, sustainability, and what secondhand shopping says about our values in a fast-everything world. It’s thoughtful, a little opinionated, and full of the everyday reflections that spark the best conversations. Grab your coffee (or take us on your thrift run) and come think out loud with us.

Wintering Book Review

Join Anna and Bracey as they unpack Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times by Katherine May, a reflective book about surviving life’s colder, quieter seasons. In this episode, they talk about how the book turned out to be very different from what they expected—less a traditional self-help guide and more a gentle, literary meditation on rest, loss, and renewal. Through personal reactions and thoughtful discussion, Anna and Bracey explore the idea of “wintering” as a natural part of human experience. Cozy, honest, and introspective, this conversation invites listeners to rethink how they move through difficult seasons.

What's On Our Minds: November 2025 Edition

On this episode of Likehearted, we dive into what’s been living rent-free in our minds lately — from Christmas decorating to a check-in on our manifestations (some are thriving, some are… pending). Tennis makes its inevitable appearance, because of course it does. We unpack the difference between being genuinely helpful and being controlling (thanks for this new lens, Brené and Adam), get sidetracked by Brené Brown’s pickleball career, and discuss the importance of diversifying joy and whimsy in your life. Plus a few delightful detours because we cannot stay on one track to save our lives! Some episodes you may have missed…. Here’s some good ones from the archives!

We discuss the different types of people pleasers, how we can be NICER to ourselves, and how authenticity, self-doubt, and fawning intersect.
