How Americans Celebrate Halloween

In this post, I reflect on the early days of fatherhood and one big mistake I made when setting expectations for life with a newborn. I share some honest thoughts about the challenges of adjusting to a completely new lifestyle and offer advice for new or expecting parents on how to better prepare mentally for the changes ahead—while also highlighting the joy that comes with it. 

One big mistake I made with my newborn son!

In this episode I will talk about tornados specifically what they are, how they are formed, what part of the US they form, and more! I have lived in the famed 'Tornado Valley' for all of my life and feel like I can speak on this topic with some personal experience :)

Tornados! What are they??

In this episode we will talk about guilty pleasures! What they are, how they come to be, and some examples. A guilty pleasure is defied as 'an activity or piece of media that someone enjoys but would be embarrassed by if other people found out about it'. I hope you enjoy the episode :)

Talking about Guilty Pleasures!

Have you ever gone to a mall and entered several stores only to purchase nothing? Do you think this is normal or do people normally buy something? Well I had this exact same question! I thought "how many people actually buy something when they enter a retail store?". I did a little research and that is the topic of this episode! It is spoken at a normal native speed and has some questions you can answer at the end. Please let me know what you think in the comments and what your answers are to those questions! Thanks for listening :)
