Join us for a real and fun backyard conversation with our good friend Aimee Gene Sims Wencesloa Ochoa Gutierrez. Yes, that's her whole real name and I may have forgotten some and definitely spelled most of them wrong. In this episode we start off talking about the amazing Hulu show The Bear. We share the parts and characters we love the most aaaand the parts of the show that were most intense to watch. We agree that it was very well written. If you like a show where you can feel all the feels, really root on the characters and see their growth unfold we highly recommend The Bear 👌 We also talk about real life topics such as: Parenting Sometimes being an angry bird Saying sorry to your kids Loving your kids on purpose Sound of freedom Need for Community And more....we hit a lot of topics in this one pals! Side note: if you hear screaming in the background we're pretty sure Aimee's neighbors are running a fight club in their backyard 🤦‍♀️

Reach her at her website: https://shannontakacs.com/ Instagram: shannon e takacs In her own words: Astrology and a birth chart reading can help you get unstuck, give you direction, reveal life-changing insights and potentially guide you to course correct. it is shining a light on your personal blueprint. I weave together your birth chart and your unique stories, lived experiences and what informed you throughout your journey, which provides a road map to your life lessons and soul’s purpose—all shared in a light-hearted, tell-it-like-it-is kinda way.. My readings are shaped by my compassionate curiosity, genuine love of humans, intuition and humour… as a result they are fun, eye-opening, thought provoking and inspiring. I create a safe space to explore it all while offering validation and acceptance for how you walk through the world. FUN FACTS: I am a leo sun, capricorn moon, virgo rising with a large dose of aquarian, sagittarian, scorpionic vibes, best described as a curious wiseass optimist who deplores superficiality but loves loud music, inventing things and driving everything with excessive speed. #sorrynotsorry I looooooove kids & yet fully content with choosing not to have my own. So far no regrets woot woot! i spent time living in the netherlands and i love me a stroop wafel alongside my tea. me and potato chips got a divorce, but every now & again we get back together … we are kinda co-dependent like that ;)

E&T talk about the healing effects of cannabis and how much they've both benefitted from this new habit.

What does it mean when the kids say period after everything?? I asked the young people in my family. Here's their hilarious response. And yes these are our kids, and yes we allow them to cuss if that's how they choose to express themselves, and yes most of the time it cracks us the hell up 😂😂
