S2E4: Dating after Divorce
In this week’s #LISGD episode, our hosts are trying to decide how to divorce all the Fall activity madness surrounding their personal lives, then they discover the term “WUSBAND” and get all the nitty gritty details about online dating from their newly divorced friend Mandy. 

Want more details?
Here’s what @honestlyHannah and @justJenSav  cover in this Episode:

• A life-long believer of over the counter hair products,  @honestlyHannah decides to divorce this belief after she has seen how amazing her hair is performing with high-end salon products. 
• @justJenSav is hoping to divorce personal clothes shopping through the end of the year. However, since she will miss this activity, she is willing to personally shop for others as long as she does not have to go to Talbots. 
• @justJenSav introduces her new friend, Mandy, and is excited about the term Mandy recently introduced to our hosts - WUSBAND. Mandy heard this term from a friend and asked if she could borrow that term  - she felt like the term ex husband was a bit severe to use. Both @honestlyHannah and @justJenSav  are now thinking of all the great merchandise options that could be developed around the WUSBAND theme!
• Mandy who was married for over 20 years and has three grown daughters, has been divorced less than 30 days. She was pleased how she and her WUSBAND handled the decisions and tough conversations they had to navigate without anger and drama and even worked together without a mediator and shared one attorney during the divorce process.
• Recently Mandy jumped into the online dating game and although she met a few people she did not click with, she is now going out with someone fun and is pleased she has met someone so compatible for her. Mandy talked about some of those first dates she had to endure - meeting men for coffee, a visit to the farmers markets, etc. She set a goal of 25 people to connect with during her online dating experiment.

S2E3: It's The Little Things...

In this week’s #LISGD episode, our hosts are talking about the small things that bring them down on a daily basis. @honestlyHannah’s husband, Brian, joins the show for this week’s “Ask Our Man” segment and talks about how their partnership began.

Want more details? 

• @honestlyHannah loves her sleepy time app, but @justJenSav  thinks she needs to pay more attention to her sleep patterns. She may divorce Ray Donovan and Showtime because she is getting obsessed with the show and watches it until she falls asleep!
• Both love TV binging - is there anything new to watch? @honestlyHannah is watching Virgin River and @justJenSav  is watching Little House on the Prairie - she even tells us about her  Little House 9th birthday party!
• Defining those little things - @honestlyHannah  talks about taking Brian for his first pedicure and how much he loved it. 
• Our hosts get details about how when it comes to little things, folks get irritated and let the little things take over.
• @justJenSav  says don’t sweat the small stuff but there are things that drive her crazy, making her become frustrated. Sometimes she does not mention these little things, but should she? It’s ok to get rid of those little things and walk away rather than causing more drama.
• Holiday time can really trigger how little things can become big issues. Our hosts, both of whom have been married to Europeans, talk about how American holidays carry so many high  expectations. Americans get into holiday mode starting at Halloween through the new year! @honestlyHannah prefers the European attitude - they don’t have unrealistic expectations.
• Can you name your little thing? Our hosts recommend claiming the little thing that is  bothering you and learn how to separate from this “small” issue.  
• @honestlyHannah’s husband, Brian joins us for our “Ask Our Man” segment, sharing how he met Hannah and how their relationship began. Brian talks about being married to American women, his new American citizenship from IreBland, his positive attitude about divorce, and how proud he is of his wife.

S2E2:  Self-Talk: Our Love/Hate Relationship

In this week’s #LISGD episode, Our hosts are filled with ideas on how to combat negative self-talk, talking at length about how our attitudes and future behaviors are affected by what we are thinking about alone in our minds! As they obsess about  @justJenSav ’s athleisure confusion and @honestlyHannah’s pottery passion, they spend some quality time with their “Ask Our Man” guest, Justin, who shares his insights into keeping communications consistently strong with your partner.

• @honestlyHannah shares why she is never divorcing pottery because it gives her the chance to unplug from her cell and just focus on one thing - making special pottery gifts for all her friends.
• When @honestlyHannah mentions her desire to divorce athleisure, Jen talks about her recent trip to ATL where every woman was wearing Lululemons and she looked out of place “dressed up” in real clothes. Even Jen and her goddaughter went shopping at Lululemon and supported the ATL athleisure movement!
• As they jump into self-talk analysis, both agree women and men have different self-talk patterns and wonder why women’s self-talk tends to be more negative. They would never talk to their friends the way they talk to themselves, so remember this the next time you are negative about yourself. 
• @honestlyHannah and  @justJenSav recommend reaching out for a friend so you can try to hear the positive things about yourself and not get bogged down in all the self-shaming.  @justJenSav also recommended what she has done in the past - talk to yourself in the third person - she says it helps you remain in the facts and less negative.
• Justin comes back to the show so we can “Ask Our Man” about how he and his wife have learned how to communicate effectively over their 26 years of marriage. Justin believes most people focus on the negative parts of their life, and if he did that all the time he would be very disappointed. Being positive about our life and our partner is important. Justin says he works on being self-aware, but wants to be there for his partner and support her in the ways she needs it rather than just thinking about himself.
