This week on These Are Good Days, Lee Ann and Matt are diving into why we’re so obsessed with getting it "right" at the expense of being real. We often treat perfectionism like a suit of armor to dodge criticism or keep anxiety at bay, but in reality, it just shields us from the actual connection and vulnerability we’re wired for. We’re busting the myth that "perfect" people win at life and exploring how showing up as your messy, authentic self is actually the fastest way to get ahead in your relationships. It’s time to stop curating the moment and start actually living in it—because the best days aren't the perfect ones; they’re the ones where you actually show up.

There are things in life that make us feel rich - and MOST of them have nothing to do with money at all. Sometimes it's a sunny day or a ride in the car with the windows down. Sometimes it's a homemade meal with your family around the table. Sometimes it can even uninterrupted time to read. No matter what, there are moments in life that make us pause and realize how much we truly have. Join us in another episode about what's making us feel rich!

We are diving into navigating tricky (and sometimes painful) shift of trading your parental authority for an actual friendship with your adult kids. We asked you guys in the These Are Good Days community how you’re navigating these new boundaries, and we’re sharing your real-talk feedback on what’s working and what’s definitely not. From mastering the 80/20 listening rule to avoiding the "help" that feels like a lecture, we’re figuring out how to stop managing our children's lives and start enjoying the people they’ve become. Let's talk together about shifting the authority role in our young children's lives to an ally role where we can root for our adult children.
