Episode 14: THE BUZZ with DR. B & BEN - Plot Twist: Did YOU Know Movie Night Has Its Own Day?!
Did You Know Movie Night Has Its Own National Day?
We didn’t either - until now! And honestly? We are completely here for it. 🍿
National Movie Night is observed every year on the second Friday in June - falling on June 12, 2026 this year. It was founded in 2022 by Jennifer and Jayda Borget, the mother-daughter duo behind the Family Movie Night Journal, with a beautiful and simple mission: to bring people back to the tradition of watching movies intentionally - together - with the people who matter most.
No scrolling. No half-watching. No phones. Just you, your people, and a great story unfolding on the screen.
Ways to observe National Movie Night:
* Host a movie night at home with family, friends, or your significant other 🎬
* Set up a backyard screen and watch under the stars ✨
* Head to a drive-in theater for a classic experience📽️
* Create a buffet of your all-time favorite movie snacks 🍿
* Have everyone share their personal top 5 movies …you might be surprised what you learn! 🎞️
* Put the phones down and be fully, intentionally present📱
Movies, Moments & Flourishing 🐝
At Flourish With Dr. B, we talk a lot about intentional living …about showing up fully for your life and the people in it. And flourishing isn’t only found in morning routines or milestone moments. Sometimes it’s found in two hours on the couch, side by side with someone you love, letting a great story move you.
Movies have a remarkable power to:
* Transport us out of stress and into story - giving our minds and bodies a chance to rest and reset
* Connect us to the people beside us in a way that everyday life sometimes doesn’t
* Awaken emotions we’ve tucked away - giving us permission to laugh, cry, feel, and release
* Reflect our deepest values - courage, love, sacrifice, redemption, resilience
* Create shared language and memories that become the fabric of a relationship
In this episode, Dr. B and Ben model what intentional togetherness actually looks like - sharing the films that have shaped them, moved them, and stayed with them across decades of life, love, and everything in between.
That is flourishing.
That is Real People. Real Talk. Real Inspo.
