The Etiquette Episode

The Wheels Are Turning Again

In true Katie and Marie fashion, we kick off this episode by realizing we've somehow misnumbered the podcast. Proof that we may need a production team - or at least someone whose job is counting. After a few laughs, we dive into a topic that touches all of us at one time or another: anxiety. From the vague feeling that something bad is about to happen, to the overwhelming sense that life is moving too fast and nothing is within your control, anxiety can show up in countless ways. In this episode, we talk openly about our very different experiences with it. We discuss the difference between anxiety you can pinpoint and anxiety that seems to come out of nowhere, the guilt that can accompany anxious feelings when life is objectively "good," and why knowing something will pass doesn't always make it easier in the moment.

Sources of Serotonin

This week on Sunday Self, Marie and Katie are sharing all the things that fill their cups and bring them joy- from life's biggest blessings to the small everyday moments that are easy to overlook. In a world that constantly pushes us to chase the next big thing, this conversation is a gentle reminder that happiness often lives in the simple moments: a morning matcha, the sound of birds, a walk in the sunshine, a quiet evening at home. Join us as we reflect on what’s making us smile lately, what we’re grateful for, and how we can all become more intentional about noticing the good that already exists in our daily lives. If life has been feeling a little repetitive or mundane, let this episode inspire you to find beauty, gratitude, and joy in the ordinary.
