    Random Kindness

    In today’s episode of Try This at Home, Leslie and Leslyn dive into random acts of kindness. Beginning with a discussion about Leslyn’s late partner whose greatest wish was to bring more peace and happiness. With peace and happiness, kindness is able to spread and extend its reaches to others. Engaging in these acts of kindness not only makes someone’s day it also produces hormones in both the giver and the receiver making them feel happier and more energized.

    EPISODIO 3

    Time for Thinking

    How would you benefit from a week isolated from the world? Theoretically it is something that everybody dreams about, but in reality, it is a little harder to put into action. It’s a habit that some very successful people have acquired and is actually what Leslie and Leslyn start this week’s discussion with. Starting with a clip about Bill Gates, Leslie and Leslyn discuss the benefits of a think week. The discussion continues covering issues with neglecting self-care and the need for improvements in solitude. There are many benefits for taking time for yourself to improve and Leslie and Leslyn challenge you, the listener, to do some more self-reflection!

    The Making of Friendship

    How do you know when someone is a friend? What makes that friend a good friend?

  7. Social Media - Changing Humanity?

    EPISODIO 8

    Social Media - Changing Humanity?

    s social media a means of connecting us, or is it really doing the exact opposite? This episode centers around a topic that Leslie and Leslyn have been itching to cover since their discussion on friendship, two episodes earlier. The topic of social media brings up the interesting examination of how we think of our friendships. Social Media can cause varying love/hate relationships among users. On one hand, it may be frustrating as a business owner to keep their posts in line with the platform’s algorithm or it could possibly be a great contribution to keeping in touch with your friends and family that may live across the country! Leslie and Leslyn speak on social media’s ability to drive connection, presenting your most authentic self, and the benefits of a no phone zone!
