    Holy Shifts

    This week on Things We Don’t Talk About, Michelle and Sarah tackle the complexities of faith, spirituality, and what happens when we outgrow the beliefs we were raised with. From the religions they were taught to the paths they’ve carved for themselves as adults, they explore the shifting nature of belief and what it means to redefine spirituality in today’s world. Michelle opens up about how she’s rethinking faith as she raises her daughter—teaching her what she wishes she had been taught. They dive into the things that didn’t make sense, the things they’ve unlearned, and the things they’re still figuring out. It’s a candid conversation about faith, family, and the freedom to believe in something that truly resonates.   We'd love to hear from you.

    What is Normal?

    This week on Things We Don’t Talk About, Michelle and Sarah dive into the unsettling concept of hyper-normalization —how we keep going about our daily lives, doing things like dishes and going to work, even as the world is falling apart. With the government unraveling and the future of the U.S. in a state of uncertainty, Michelle and Sarah explore what it means to continue these “normal” routines when so much seems anything but normal. They also discuss how embracing joy can be a powerful form of bodily autonomy, and why it might be one of our most important acts of resistance right now. From a historical perspective, they unpack the parallels between today’s chaos and the past, and ask: how can we prepare for what’s coming next? How are you holding up? We'd love to hear from you.

    Accountability: the Key to the Life You Want

    When we think about success, achieving goals, and living our best lives, we don't think about accountability. Accountability sounds like your mom or your boss or your ex scolding you.

Tune in for an honest conversation on why we avoid accountability, how to face it head-on, and why it’s a key ingredient in creating your best life. We would love to hear from you!
