Welcome!


Relax with us! Join us in our retreat - The She Shed - where we shed our shit. In this episode, My good friend, Wen, tells the tale of her Boomer parents and their boating adventures during the COVID-19 pandemic. 




We want to hear from you. Leave a message for us in the She Shed here: https://anchor.fm/TALB/message




 How are you doing? How are you and your family handling the craziness of the pandemic? 


None of us has ever done this before, so there's no perfect way to quarantine.  Please adhere to the CDC guidelines as much as you can.  (You can find the CDC guidelines at https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-nCoV/index.html


This week we're working on:


*Hydration


*Breathing


*Allow yourself to feel your feelings and not get too involved in them.


*Avoiding numbing


We do drop some F-bombs, so beware if you're sensitive to that. We're talking about parent and Mother-in-law issues this episode. A coincidence? You decide. What end of the year/beginning of summer traditions are you missing? How are you making up for it? We're talking about a drive-thru prom and supporting students while socially distancing. Also, guilt. All the guilt and the flipside of it, self-care. Self-care is NOT selfish. This week's method of self-care is meditation. We use the headspace app in the She Shed. They're currently offering free meditations for unemployed people. Check them out here. Rachel Hollis has been my inspiration to start this podcast. If you're not familiar with her work, check her out here!


Show Notes:


One word that will change your life (Non-affiliate link) - This book was given to everyone on our campus this year and helped guide my journey this year.  It is a quick, excellent read. ˚Kim's word for the year is Truth. What's your word? Share your one word with the She Shed crew here.


For those who want to know, Cape Cod Salt and Vinegar Chips have 230 mg of sodium for one serving, which is 18 chips, so they totally can fit into your diet when you're reducing your sodium, but you're going to have to watch it.  Savoritz Rosemary and Garlic crackers from Aldi have 125 mg of sodium for six of them, which is a ridiculously small amount.


We took a vote in the She Shed. Click here to find the best recipe for kale chips. What are you having for dinner?


Mango Trees are magical. If you can grow one, please plant one in honor of those who don't live in the proper climate.


If you're struggling this week:


Suicide Prevention


Being Hurt? Get Help. 


Need a meeting? Online meetings for AA, ACOA, AL-ANON, and more. 


Thank you for overlooking the sound quality, it is our first episode and we're learning.


Namaste.
