Was our relationship forged in hardship? Keith and Laura are sensitive, independent partners and friends. 

How did we make it this long in our relationship? We are both fairly sensitive. And, even though we both know that we love each other so much, and we never intentionally try to say the thing that’s going to be taken the wrong way, it happens.

We keep searching to better understand each other. Communication, curiosity and feedback are so important to us as we continue to learn better ways to support and show up for each other.

This is more than a question. It’s a feeling. 

“Are we there yet?” applies to physical journeys and long-term life goals, aspirations and achievements. Whatever your resistance: doubt, impatience, lack of a clear vision for the future; these roadblocks can prevent you from starting. Keith and Laura both agree that taking the first step, beginning even if the plan or path is not entirely clear, is key to moving forward.

Laura designs and creates road maps. Her vision, clear direction, and ability to work a plan with defined milestones, ensures progress towards a well-defined destination. 

Keith enjoys flexibility, but can focus on the fear of what could go wrong. This stops him from even starting a project. For him it’s important to embrace the possibility of failure and learn from it. 

Keith and Laura both agree that taking the first step, beginning even if the plan or path is not entirely clear, is key to moving forward. We explore the benefits of both planning and flexibility. Emphasizing the importance of taking action and finding joy in the journey. After all, the unexpected delights and discoveries during a trip or project can be as rewarding, if not more than, the final destination. 

There’s no one-way to success. Whether you’re a planner or a go-with-the-flow kind of person, the key takeaway is to get moving and create the conditions to enjoy the ride!

Mother’s day is coming up. We are often thinking and wondering where we’re going. Facing forward, leaning in. 

But today, Keith and Laura take a look back, reflecting on who and where they come from, and the different lessons they’ve learned from both their moms and grandmas.

Here’s a special salute to the women who helped us become who we are and some stories and experiences that shaped us along the way. 

Mother’s Day ought to be more than once a year.

Keith and Laura talk about their blocks. Blocks, the things Neal Brennan says make him “feel like something is wrong with me.” Neal had a whole Netflix comedy special about it and Keith has been watching and listening to his, Blocks Podcast.

We made lists of our blocks, noticed what was similar, different and of course acknowledge the importance of self-care and communication as keys to working through our blocks.

Thanks for joining us!
