With humor, honesty, and grounded wisdom, they explore how awareness turns life’s ups and downs into the magic we think we’re missing. Because in this wild world of uncertainty, maybe the only thing we know for sure is that we’re all in it together.Elyse Tapper and David Cardon Social Sciences

  • Episode 20 - What Is Love? First Loves, Love Languages And What Lasts
    Feb 17 2026

    What is love — really? 💭🤍


    In this episode, we talk about our first loves, the relationships that shaped us, and how those experiences informed the way we love each other today.


    We reflect on the ups and downs especially the hard years when the kids were so young…


    Of course, we couldn’t resist diving into the five love languages… and debating which ones we think we are.


    This conversation is about how love evolves, what lasts, and how understanding ourselves a little better helps us show up more fully for the people we care about 💞

  • Episode 19 - What Did You Want to Be When You Grew Up? The Power of Believing
    Feb 10 2026


    In this episode, we talk about childhood dreams, laser focus, and a belief that doesn’t bend— even when doors close, even when you’re told “you’re not good enough.”


    Elyse shares how she always knew she would become a dancer, even when the road was rough and the feedback was discouraging. That certainty — that deep, unshakeable knowing became the fuel that carried her forward.


    We explore whether success is only about talent… or if perseverance is the true difference between those who make it and those who stop just short.


    If you’ve ever had a dream that felt impossible, this conversation is about belief, resilience, and trusting the voice inside you that says, “I got this.” 💫

  • Episode 18 - Why Saying “I’m Sorry” Is So Hard for Some of Us
    Feb 3 2026

    Why is it so hard for some people to say “I’m sorry” — even for the small stuff? 💭


    In this episode, we dig into the emotional layers behind apologizing and why it can feel so different from one person to the next.


    David shares how, for him, apologizing can feel like admitting failure or getting something fundamentally wrong — while Elyse talks about why saying sorry feels like a natural, everyday part of being human and staying connected 🤍


    If you’ve ever wondered why apologies feel easy for some and nearly impossible for others, this episode offers insight, compassion, and a deeper understanding of both sides ✨
