The Laughing Couple

This is a hard one. No cap. There is no easy way to say it but after over 4 years of podcasting every week - we have decided to take a break from The Laughing Couple Podcast. This has been the most incredible journey for us. TLC started as something we created to bring us joy during the rough days of the pandemic, and it turned into a platform that has created space for important conversations, and more importantly a place for us all to laugh and celebrate the shitstorm that is life. We honestly Cannot thank you enough for your support, love and engagement over the years. You are the reason we've alway kept on going. Your amazing comments and reviews allowed us to understand the impact TLC has. Truly unmatch. Thank you once again for your incredible support and for being part of this journey with us. We’ve loved every moment and look forward to what’s next. Until then, keep listening to the episodes you love, and stay connected with us online. You will likely see more of us. Remember: This isn’t a goodbye - just a “see you later.” We’re stepping away to take some time for ourselves, recharge, and to focus our energy on what we have built - and less on what we can build. The truth is, we don’t yet know what the future holds for our show. Maybe a weekly episode? or monthly? We will let you know. We’re taking this break to reflect, dream, and hopefully come back with renewed energy and fresh ideas. But for now - Let's dive in. Today we're talking about slang words "now vs then". It's pretty fun, no cap. Forever Grateful, Brittany & Ryan p.s Send us your favorite TLC moments and we can share them on socials! Enjoy!

Let's talk about the grueling pressure to always do more. It’s like there's an unwritten rule that if you’re not constantly doing more, you’re doing something wrong. We're supposed to celebrate the hustle, glorify the grind, and have this relentless need to achieve more, be more, and have more. But when will I feel like i'm doing enough? and what does "too much" look like? In this episode, we delve into the delicate balance between ambition and presence with a sobering conversation about some pressures in our lives and the tolls they take. Join us as we explore the tension and stress that arise when juggling multiple commitments, starting new ventures, and striving for more, even when we already have what we desire. How do you balance so many things? and most importantly - when do you stop and take inventory of your life and make sure that the challenges you've added are still align with the end goals. because at the end of the day, what if, doing less, being present, and valuing quality over quantity were actually the keys to a more fulfilling life? Maybe, just maybe, the relentless pressure to always “do more” is a distraction from what truly matters. Who knows! Enjoy!

Summer break is here. The kids are home for the summer and literally anything can happen. The house could be on fire as I write this. We just don't know.
