In today’s episode of Life Unleashed, we’re talking all about reinventing yourself. If we’re being honest, we all get in a rut sometimes. That rut looks different for all of us but we all have them. Danielle has been in a lifelong reading rut but has just decided to try it out and, to her surprise has been absolutely loving it. We all also struggle with getting over that initial inertia and taking the first step towards that new life. Maybe it’s because we’re scared of the unknown but if you’re anything like us you spend a lot of time thinking about doing something new but you struggle to actually take that first concrete step towards your goal. Well in today’s episode, we talk about strategies we use to overcome this and the success we have found once doing so. So who’s ready to stop just thinking about it and actually commit to reinventing yourself?

Happy Thanksgiving! In today’s episode of Life Unleashed, we’re talking all about our hot takes on Thanksgiving and other holidays. We also couldn’t resist talking about Black Friday and how we expect this year’s sale to go. Every Black Friday is different, but you guys always show up, and we are so incredibly grateful for each and every one of you! This year is different, it is the first time in quite a while where we are back in our basement, and now we have baby Callan to think about while also handling our biggest sale of the year. We are here for the challenge though, and can’t wait for everyone to shop the sale.

In today’s episode of Life Unleashed, we talk about our NICU experience. When we were preparing for Callan’s birth we never expected that we would have to deal with him going to the NICU. We had mentally prepared for many other scenarios, mainly having to do with the birth but for some reason, the NICU didn’t cross our mind. We want to share our experience in the hopes of helping someone who might end up in the same situation. After going through this experience we found that the best thing you can do is to not worry too much about all the what ifs or worst things because ultimately anything can happen but rather be prepared and know they are possibilities while not living in fear. Bringing a child into the world is an amazing experience and shouldn’t be clouded by fear. We found a lot of peace listening to other's stories before our own birth experience and therefore want to share our own in the hopes that it gives someone the same peace we found. So much of the anxiety and fear comes from the unknown and the more you know the better prepared you are. With that said, let’s jump into another episode of Life Unleashed.

Running a business is a full-time job and so is taking care of a newborn. The question is how in the world do we balance it all? Well in today’s episode of Life Unleashed, we’re talking all about how we strike the balance between the two. As parents, we often feel torn between competing tasks, taking care of Callan, and running our business. To say the least, it has been difficult figuring out the balance and coming up with a schedule that works for our whole family. However, life is often about trade offs and right now we are leaning into the joy of having a newborn. Fortunately, we have figured out a way to make the most out of our “free time” (mainly when Callan is napping) to squeeze in as much work as possible. We have also had to step up our communication and teamwork as a couple. For now, things seem to be working well but if we have learned anything as new parents it is that our “prefect” schedule is likely to change tomorrow. Regardless of what happens, we will learn to grow and adapt to whatever life throws at us. There is only one way to go and that is forward.

We talk about why Instagram Reels are so important right now and how they can have a big impact on your IG growth and overall business. We also cover other social media topics and share what is working for us and what is not. Of course, we take a little detour to talk about email marketing which is still one of our favorite communication channels. So who’s ready to talk about reels?
