    [030] See the Good, Say It Out Loud: Why Positive Feedback Matters

    What if kindness was our rebellion? In this episode, Mandy unpacks why positive reviews, gratitude, and simple words of encouragement matter more than ever—and how seeing the good and saying it out loud can change everything. In this episode: The Impact of Positive Feedback [00:28]Supporting Service Workers and Small Businesses [01:31]The Importance of Kindness in Customer Interactions [04:22]Tipping and Generosity [07:09]Holiday Season Reminders [08:36]Encouragement Over Criticism [10:19] Why it matters: Every review, kind comment, or thank-you note tells someone: I see you, your work matters, keep going. And in a time when so many people are stretched thin or questioning if what they do makes a difference — those words can be the thing that keeps them showing up. Wildly Recommended: So maybe this week, leave three reviews: one for a local business, one for a service worker, and one for a product or creator you love. Reflection Question: What would change if we started noticing what’s right as quickly as we point out what’s wrong? If today’s episode stirred something real in you, pass it on. Send it to the friend who gets it — the one who’s walking their own brave, messy, beautiful path. We’re not meant to unlearn and rebuild alone.

    [024] Living the Story & Raising Readers: What Laura Ingalls Wilder Teaches Us About Connection That Lasts

    Some stories aren’t just read, they’re lived. From prairie days to modern classics, books have a way of rooting us, slowing us down, and drawing us closer to one another. This episode is a reminder that raising readers isn’t about finishing booklists, but about weaving stories into the rhythms of everyday life—so they become memories that last. In this episode: Why it matters: Reading aloud slows us down and gives families a shared world—a rhythm of belonging, imagination, and connection that screens can’t offer. It’s less about literacy and more about lasting bonds. Wildly Recommended: Books recommended in this episodeRead Aloud Revival Reflection Question: What book are you bringing to life this season?
