Let's be real, Covid winters hit harder. If you've been down in the dumps you are not alone. This past winter may have been gloomy for a lot of us, but summer warmth and the rays of the sun bring us a new hope of the possibilities this summer, and we will NOT waste it! Hope you enjoy.

Have you ever felt like you're in a place where you don't belong? or like you're not doing enough? or like you're putting up a front and faking it till you make it? Well, you're not alone. This week Emily and Karbon talk about the feelings that come with imposter syndrome and how to make yourself feel more validated and like your work does matter and has a purpose. Hope you enjoy!

So we've all heard the theories of the JFK assassination, BUT, have you heard the theories behind the RFK assassination? Robert Kennedy (JFK's brother) was running for president 5 years after his brother died and had just finished a successful run in the Californian primaries. He was just getting off stage and entering the pantry of the Ambassador Hotel where he was greeted with a fatal shot to the head. Convicted murderer Sirhan Sirhan fired 8 shots in the hotel pantry that morning. So you would think this was an open and shut case right? Well.... there's some compelling evidence that might make you think otherwise. All this and more in this week's podcast. Enjoy!

We've all been there, falling for fake news and posting it only to take it down in a rush 2 hours later because you only read the headline and didn't check your sources. We get it. And telling real news from fake news can be hard. In this episode Emily and Karbon reveal just how hard it is to identify real news from fake news. Let us know how many you get right. Enjoy!

We have officially reached our zoom call limit. Anyone else feeling totally zoomed out? In this episode Karbon and Emily take us through what their 2020 was like, things they learned, things they experienced, and what they are looking forward to in 2021. Enjoy!

Did you leave your christmas shopping till the literal last possible minute? We experience this every single year as the 24th of December comes around and we are still googling "last minute gifts" just so we don't show up empty handed but end up defaulting to the usual lazy amazon gift card. This stops today! Every gift in this guide will be something you can buy and gift on the same day if needed (well... except for Emily's ideas that require too much effort for any normal person). Enjoy!

It's true that debt can be extremely crippling to every aspect of your health. Your finances affects you mental, physical and emotional health.

Join us this week as Emily and Karbon discuss some discoveries that will get you thinking twice about what you were taught in school. Enjoy!

Why is it so hard for progressives and conservatives to have constructive conversations about policy? When both sides believe the other is motivated by hate, is it even worth trying?
