Come laugh with me and my super inspiring guests as we stumble through life, and instead, try ‘Aiming for Done!’ This podcast is all about giving it all you’ve got today in pursuit of your dreams. But it’s also about being willing to fall on your face and look ridiculous, knowing that there’s always tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day...

Opinions about sex from two very non-experts! Okay, so we actually have more questions than answers. But the thing is, sex within a marriage is something that is worth talking about. Marriage is, in our opinion, the very best place for sex, but we’ve also found that it seldom gets talked about in this context in a healthy and real way. Come listen …

Homeschool: As homeschooled child myself, this is topic that I’ve always been a mixture of excited and hesitant to talk about. Excited because of what that chance to learn at home, completely at my own pace, gave me... and hesitant because a lot of the staunchly held misconceptions around children who homeschool, and the mothers who educate them. I…

Dreaming about the next big thing: a recipe for discontentment? We think not. Vicky and I argue, perhaps ironically, that the best way to stay grounded during the hard moments of your day job (whether you’re at home with little people, like us, or doing almost anything else) is to allow yourself free license to float into the clouds whenever your c…

How great would it be to know that you- not the bank- actually own the home you’re living in; that the place you carefully tend and cultivate each day belongs 100% to you and your family? If you’re intrigued by the idea of paying down your mortgage (or anything else) quickly, here’s a look at my own poorly planned and hastily executed methods of ge…

This podcast is all about having the gumption to shoot for the stars even when your face is stuck in the mud. It’s about showing up for ourselves and our dreams regardless of very well-founded feelings of inadequacy. It’s about being willing to fail over and over again.

What if the things that make us truly great aren’t glimmer-y and shiny and perfect? What if they’re REAL. What if they are the very qualities that scare us the most? The same things that make us feel awkward and strange in social situations? Connected to the same moments that nauseate us to recall? Chelsea navigates this topic with the grace and wi…

As Cristy and I chat, I start to think that maybe I can start writing down those big scary goals we’ve been talking about... and all of my fears start to make a little more sense in my head- and they start to feel okay, like they’re allowed to be there but I’m not going to let them control. It’s not about failure or success. It’s not about looking …

Lauren and I discuss the concept that all humans do well... IF THEY CAN. This gave us a lot to consider about the expectations we have for people in our lives. It also made us both take a deep breath as we realized that we constantly beat ourselves up for, 1) Things we can’t control, and, 2) Circumstances that we simply don’t (currently) have the r…
