    Halloween Special - Customs are NOT Costumes

    Ah, Halloween. That beautiful bastardization where we celebrate who even knows what at this point? In today's "woke" culture many are wondering what is and is not an appropriate costume. Gone are the days of Cowboys and Indians. Some can recognize when something is inappropriate but may not know exactly how to explain why. Let's dive into some uncomfortable questions.

    Parenting

    Parenting

    Every generation always shoulder the burden of producing a contributing member of society. It's not a perfect process but we don't have much else. Byron and Zelda talk about their evolving relationship with their parents, look into choices that were made, and how society shapes who we can become. How much agency can we claim in ourselves away from our parents teachings, and how much can we attribute? They're both Jungians, not Freudians. So there will be no blaming mother today.

    Being Unapologetically Me

    Being Unapologetically Me

    Confidence is sexy. Arrogance is not. Self assuredness is attractive. Selfishness is repulsive. How does one stay authentic to themselves and navigate interpersonal relationships with friends, family, etc? In a world of "take me as I am or leave me" have we really prepared ourselves for people to leave us? Are relationships worth compromising our values? Sometimes that decision gets made for us.

    I feel like a stranger to myself.

    I feel like a stranger to myself.

    In a face-paced generation where everyone has to work work work how much time are we taking to be our true selves? Does what we do define who we are? Is it possible to take time out of our day to really foster what makes us a person? Lots of questions to ask ourselves and the only answers come from within.

    Family Matters

    Family Matters

    How close are you with your family? How close should you be? Who says you should be? Is it really just what it is? These days family is often scattered to the winds it's hard to maintain close relationships with your kin. BUT, is that even a bad thing? It doesn't mean you love them any more or less than if they were right down the street. Can family values survive the modern era?

    A Crowded Home - Taking In A Family Member

    A Crowded Home - Taking In A Family Member

    Relationships are hard. Family is hard. Taking a family member into your home while in a relationship? Delicate would be putting it lightly. Complicated would be putting it charitably. Powder keg? Ok, relax. As we get older the responsibilities inevitably get passed from one generation to the other. How do you navigate family obligation and advocating for yourself?

    Are my short-term goals really obstacles?

    Are my short-term goals really obstacles?

    When the pandemic hit a lot of people reevaluated their lifestyles and set new priorities. Changing your life requires a great deal of commitment and focus. Setting long term goals is the easy part. Not standing in your own way is the hard part. Byron and Zelda talk about the changes they made after the height of the pandemic; going back to school, buying a home, reevaluating friendships, and much more.
