    Ep. 99 (Part 1) - An Enlightening Conversation with MaryJo Anderson on Being Resilient AF, Finding Health, and Feeling Aligned

    I know. I’m just as shocked as you are that I’m speaking to THE MaryJo Anderson on today’s episode. But also, this has been a long time coming. MaryJo and I “met” on Instagram through Landyn Hutchinson (Living with Landyn), everyone’s favorite influencer and MJ quickly became one of my favorite people. She shares the beautiful view from her deck most mornings, perhaps a stroll through “The Beloved Garden”, or a video of one of her kids swinging in their living room. Yes, she has a swing in her living room. While all the beautiful moments she shares are quite lovely, the best things about her are what’s on the inside. Mary Jo is a dedicated volunteer and philanthropist in her community and also organizes many events with the hope of creating connection and inspiring women to show up in love every chance they get. We had so much to cover so this is part 1 of a 2-part conversation. I’m so, so grateful to have women like MaryJo in my life and if for some reason you don’t know her yet, you’re about to meet your next favorite person as well. And don’t forget to come back next week for Part 2 where we talk more about friendship, social media, and connection! Enjoy!

    Ep. 98 - How to Get The Most Out Of Your Long-Term Stay Away From Home

    We’re back in Kansas City from our two-month stay in Colorado and I have some thoughts! Actually, they’re things I’ve learned since doing this a couple of times and I thought I’d share my tips on how to make your long-term stay memorable, meaningful, and time well-spent. I’m sharing my top things to keep in mind as well as ideas to make the most of your time away from home. The empty-nest era is a great time to try out some new places without having to sell and move everything. Long-term renting is a great way to try before you buy and heck, you may never buy if you can just live in the best places during the best seasons. Let me know if you've done this and where your favorite locations have been! I may need to add it to my list! ****** Follow Hallie on socials: IG @theawedlife and @hallie_sawyer Threads: @Hallie_Sawyer TikTok: @theAWEdLife  Suggested podcast this week The OCD Confessional with Alicia Hill and Liam Martin Watch all the podcast episodes here: YouTube: @Hallie_Sawyer ****** Subscribe to my Substack for my monthly newsletter, updates, weekly essays, to support the podcast, or to join our private AWEd AF community. ****** The AWEd Life podcast is supported by:  ION Intelligence of Nature Gut Support: Defend from toxins, support healthy digestion, and boost immune function PERFECT AMINO™ is composed of pure essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein, in a form and ratio that is up to 99% utilized, but without the caloric impact and without breaking a fast.  Get 20% off with this link Tenzo Tea- my favorite matcha!

    Ep. 97 - Starting Over at 53 as a Retired Stay-At-Home Mom, with Helen B.

    When I discovered Helen, it was from an Instagram Reel where she shared who she was (a retired SAHM) and that she had gone away for a month to spend time with herself now that she was an empty-nester. I knew instantly I needed to chat with her, both as my new favorite person and as a potential podcast guest. She is delightful in so many ways. She has a wicked sense of humor (my love language), is courageous, relatable, and does NOT do b******t. Did I mention she is delightful? I can’t wait for you to listen and be inspired for your empty-nest years, whenever they may be.

    Ep. 96 - Living as Empty-Nesters in Colorado Part-Time, Again!

    Today, I’m sharing some insights into living in Colorado part-time, taking in what we learned from last year and what we want to do differently this year. We came out here last year to be closer to our boys during baseball season and make it easier on us to see them play each weekend. It was a wonderful experience and we wanted to replicate that again this year but also try to do things a little differently. Come along as I share what life is like living part-time in beautiful Colorado and why it’s been something we will continue to do forever. ****** Follow Hallie on socials: IG @theawedlife and @hallie_sawyer Threads: @Hallie_Sawyer TikTok: @theAWEdLife  Suggested podcast this week  Dear Nina, Conversations About Friendship, with my friend, Nina Badzin The OCD Confessional with Alicia Hill and Liam Martin Watch all the podcast episodes here: YouTube: @Hallie_Sawyer ****** Subscribe to my Substack for my monthly newsletter, updates, weekly essays, to support the podcast, or to join our private AWEd AF community. ****** The AWEd Life podcast is supported by:  ION Intelligence of Nature Gut Support: Defend from toxins, support healthy digestion, and boost immune function PERFECT AMINO™ is composed of pure essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein, in a form and ratio that is up to 99% utilized, but without the caloric impact and without breaking a fast.  Get 20% off with this link Tenzo Tea- my favorite matcha!

    Ep. 94 - "How To Blow Up Your Life" with Sara Stansberry

    This week, I’m having a conversation with Sara Stansberry, writer, podcaster, life coach, and mother who found her true self after blowing up her life. If you’ve ever felt like you’re not living the life you’re meant to, you’ll relate to her story. Maybe you're in an unhappy job or career. Maybe you feel like you’re living in the wrong place. Maybe you’ve had to walk away from your family of origin. I hope Sara’s story inspires you, encourages you, and helps you feel less alone in the hard thing you’re going through. More than anything, I hope this conversation gives you the strength you need to move forward with a really hard decision in your life, whatever it may be. Perhaps Sara can be a source of support should you decide you want a little help. I’m sure she’d love to help! ****** Show Notes Find Sara here: Her website Her Substack, How To Blow Up Your Life IG @SaraStansberry FB @SaraStansberry TikTok @SaraStansberry Onsite Workshops info Onsite blog Suggested podcast this week The OCD Confessional with Alicia Hill and Liam Martin ****** Follow Hallie on socials: IG @theawedlife and @hallie_sawyer Threads: @Hallie_Sawyer TikTok: @theAWEdLife Watchall the podcast episodes here: YouTube: @Hallie_Sawyer ****** Subscribe to my Substackfor my monthly newsletter, updates, weekly essays, to support the podcast, or to join our private AWEd AF community. ****** The AWEd Life podcast is supported by: IONIntelligence of Nature Gut Support: Defend from toxins, support healthy digestion, and boost immune function PERFECT AMINO™ is composed of pure essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein, in a form and ratio that is up to 99% utilized, but without the caloric impact and without breaking a fast.  Get 20% off with this link Tenzo Tea- my favorite matcha!

    Ep. 93 - Taking On 2026 Like a Long, Beautiful Hike

    I sat down at the beginning of the year and examined how I wanted to feel this year. What I kept going back to was a gorgeous hike I’d done last fall and realized I wanted to recreate exactly how I felt on that hike. I think it may be the way I want to live the rest of my life, actually. Take a listen and see if you agree. As always, thank you for being here and for sharing these episodes with your friends. It means the world! SHOW NOTES: Hikes I mentioned My first hike ever was the Ute Trail We made it as far as the rock in this picture. LOL The hike we did last fall: Mount Yale trail via Denny Creek trailhead just west of Buena Vista, Colorado. We only went up a couple of miles before turning around. This is a 14er if you want to give it a go! ****** Follow Hallie on socials: IG @theawedlife and @hallie_sawyer Threads: @Hallie_Sawyer TikTok: @theAWEdLife Suggested podcast this week: The OCD Confessional with Alicia Hill and Liam Martin Watchall the podcast episodes here: YouTube: @Hallie_Sawyer ****** Subscribe to my Substackfor my monthly newsletter, updates, weekly essays, to support the podcast, or to join our private AWEd AF community. ****** The AWEd Life podcast is supported by: IONIntelligence of Nature Gut Support: Defend from toxins, support healthy digestion, and boost immune function PERFECT AMINO™ is composed of pure essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein, in a form and ratio that is up to 99% utilized, but without the caloric impact and without breaking a fast.  Get 20% off with this link Tenzo Tea- my favorite matcha!

Kim shares how getting in alignment directly affects how we feel about our home as well as tools she uses to help her clients figure out where things are “off”. These tools and information help her help her clients decide whether they should stay in their current home, renovate their space, or move to a new home in order to match who they are to a space that feels the most “home” to them This information helpful to anyone who is trying to buy a home or feeling unsure of where they’re currently living, from first-home buyers to empty-nesters!
