Katie and Ginny explain where they've been for the past two months.  Turns out, the Covid Hangover has gotten them both.  What's the Covid Hangover?  It's that awful transition from pandemic to real life again that comes with all kinds of stumbling blocks and set backs.  It's kicking our butts, but we'll share our journey with you.  

In this episode, we catch up after the Thanksgiving holiday.  Katie returns from a cruise to the Caribbean with a "B- vacation,"  Ginny's kids think she's famous, and all our kids are ungrateful and annoying.  Also, it is very possible we accidentally have our first real sponsor.  Sit back on the couch and catch up with your SisterFriends! 

In this episode, we each bring a list of random questions that we need some advice from our sister on.  Things like, "Is anyone wearing chocolate brown nails right now?" and "How big is too big for an SUV" and "Why doesn't anyone in my family know where anything goes". While we may not have all the answers, we have a good time trying to find them.  Oh, and Ginny cries.  So, that's fun.  Download and listen along today!

In this episode, we talk about the Lazy Genius's principle of planning your seasons.  This includes setting family priorities for fall and some ideas for fall weekend getaways.  Ginny also makes us talk about getting older, which is zero fun at all.  But we do get to shave our faces, so that's a plus.  

In this episode, we dive into everyone’s favorite personality assessment, the Enneagram. Learn what makes our weird little minds tick as we pick through our assessment results, tell funny stories that make so much sense after knowing our Enneagram numbers, and share what we have learned about ourselves. 

We kick off Season Two of Sister Friends with a catching up episode to find out how Katie and Ginny have spent their time apart (news flash: no communication courses were taken, so they still suck at talking).  From surgery recovery to family vacations, to home renovations, to bunco gone wrong, it's one silly story after another.  Welcome back, Imaginary Friends!  We've missed you so!

You guys asked for her, so here she is… MOM JOINS US ON THE PODCAST THIS WEEK. Meet our delightfully eccentric, highly entertaining, and politically incorrect mom, Patty. She brings some words of wisdom on parenting, marriage, family, bourbon, retirement, and everything in between. ALL HAIL THE NANA.

This week, we dive into the topic of all things back to school.  We talk about our family routines and traditions when school starts back, along with what we do as mom’s to keep ourselves and our families organized and ready for a new school year.  So whether you are enjoying your summer or starting school soon, take some notes and join our conversation as we get ready to head back to school!

DESCRIPTION: In this week’s episode of SisterFriend’s, we dive into the much requested topic of self care.  What is it?  How do we make time for it?  And does it even matter?  This episode ended up being over an hour and half of earth-shattering revelations (not really, but Katie snort-laughs, so that’s fun…) so we have cut it into two episodes.  Enjoy Episode 9 and 10, sister friends!  EPISODE LINKS:  Katie’s Fake Sponsor - Blenders Sunglasses Ginny’s Fake Sponsor - The Hatch Get in touch!

EPISODE NOTES: After a rough few days in Katie's family, SisterFriends is back on schedule again.  This time, we talk through an emergency room visit which includes a body part in a sandwich bag and a cursing nurse.  We spend most of our time trying to unravel the mystery and nervousness of making and deepening adult friendships.  Thank goodness we have The Social Butterfly Queen, Ginny, to teach us her ways!   EPISODE LINKS:  Katie’s Fake Sponsor - Weight Watchers Ginny’s Fake Sponsor - SkinnyDipped Lemon Bliss Yogurt Covered Raisins Simplify by Bill Hybels  Get in touch!

EPISODE NOTES: In this episode of SisterFriends, we dive into routines and schedules.  Listen along as we talk through what routines look like in our families, how we manage our work-outside-the-home schedules with our family schedules, and which planning systems work best for us (Spoiler Alert - stickers for Katie; corporate for Ginny).  We also talk through how goal setting and personal priorities help dictate our schedules and routines.  And, of course, there is everyone’s favorite… Fake Sponsors.   EPISODE LINKS:  Katie’s Fake Sponsor - Not Your Mother’s Natural Products Ginny’s Fake Sponsor - BCOZZY neck pillow Google Keep digital post-it notes Erin Condren planners Emily Ley planners Katie’s work planner by Blue Sky  Simplify by Bill Hybels  I Know How She Does It by Laura Vanderkam Getting Things Done by David Allen Get in touch!
