Setting an intention can impact your whole year.

Sometimes you just need a break.

We're geeking on learning routines (sounds nerdy, so it's totally interesting) + a future avocado toast bar!!!!!! We are celebrating our non-Type-A-ness, we love making lists but it turns out we aren't that great at planning, so we embrace it. Last best gold star moment (when we were proud of ourselves) was when Melissa'staxes were done on time + well. Nikki let her kindergartener play hooky + they did fun things all day.

Lanscaping + and pleasant smelling pits kick off the show (you just never know what will come up!) This week the girls pay attention to the Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz and how some really simple shifts can make all the difference in how we relate to one another. We wrap with the last best movies we've seen.

This week we welcome our first ever Pay Attention guest-- our good friend Kim Ericksen! We chat with her all about her "year of yes" and what happens when you embrace big opportunities as they come. Please bear with us as the audio on this episode isn't the best, but the convo was just too good, we decided to share it anyway.

Geeking out on Spring + dinner party place cards. Paying attention to finding hope when life is difficult. Last best song includes a really sweet duet by your hosts. Follow on Instagram @payattentionpodcast
