• Mini Monday: A Gentle Reset
    Jan 12 2026

    In this Mini Monday episode of Superlatively Yes, Tanya invites you to slow down, reset, and gently begin your week, and your year, with purpose instead of pressure.

    We're living in a noisy, distracted world where most of us wake up already feeling behind. In this episode, Tanya talks about how easy it is to spend our days reacting, scrolling, and carrying too much in our minds and why a small reset can change everything.

    You'll hear:

    • Why modern life leaves us overstimulated and exhausted

    • The power of pausing instead of constantly pushing

    • How writing things down helps the brain feel lighter and more in control

    • Why simple lists, prayers, or honest conversations can bring clarity

    • How small, finished tasks build a meaningful life over time

    Tanya also shares a heartfelt reflection on the journey of Superlatively Yes from its beginnings in early 2022 with Jasa, to Jennifer becoming a co-host, and how the podcast continues to grow and evolve alongside its listeners. This episode is a reminder that this show was never about being polished; it's about being present and walking through life together.

    As we step into 2026, this Mini Monday is a gentle invitation to live on purpose to notice, to choose, and to build a life you're proud of, one small moment at a time.

    To close, Tanya gives one simple challenge:
    Do one irreversible task today.
    One small thing that leaves evidence that today mattered — a walk, a prayer, a phone call, a page written, or a surface cleaned.

    Because we don't change our lives with giant leaps.
    We change them with small, finished steps.

  • Progress Is Pleasing: A January Reset That Works
    Jan 5 2026

    My sweet friends 🤍
    If you're feeling a little foggy after the holidays, distracted, behind, or like everything is slightly "off," this episode is for you. Today isn't about restarting your whole life. It's a reset. A soft landing into 2026 with some simple systems that help your brain breathe again.

    What this episode is really about:

    Resetting, not reinventing.

    Getting the noise out of your head and into one place (because progress is pleasing to the brain).

    Creating evidence that the day moved forward.

    Recapturing our time, attention, and talent (instead of handing it to doom scrolling).

    Key takeaways (quick + clear):
    Progress calms the brain. Open loops create mental noise.
    A brain dump is a reset button. The goal isn't to do it all—the goal is to see it.
    Saving something to your phone isn't an action step. (Ask me how I know 😂)
    One irreversible task a day builds momentum and self-trust.
    When nothing in your environment reminds you what matters, you lose focus. That's why boards work.

    January Challenge: One Irreversible Task a Day
    An irreversible task is something that leaves evidence and can't be easily undone:

    A workout

    A journal page

    Reading a chapter

    Hanging a picture

    Styling a shelf

    Completing one project step

    3 Board Ideas from the episode (choose ONE to start):

    Prayer Board – names, requests, scriptures, gratitude

    Vision Board – not "manifesting," just setting direction

    Life Board – current projects + punch lists + what matters right now
    (Simple supplies. No perfection. Just visible reminders.)

    📎 Your Printable Download (Patreon Exclusive):
    12 Irreversible Tasks Challenge — fridge-friendly + cute + motivating
    Use it exactly as-is, or let it inspire your own list. The magic is getting it out of your head and into the real world.

    12 Irreversible Task Ideas (from the episode):

    Read a chapter or two

    Clean out one messy drawer

    Write in your journal

    Style an outdated/unfinished shelf

    Clean out your tote bag/diaper bag/back seat

    Go to sleep early

    Create a project you saved on your phone

    Create a January playlist

    Stretch on the floor for 20 minutes

    Put a meal in the crockpot early

    Do a 20-minute workout/walk/jog

    Take a pet for a walk (yours or somebody else's 😄)

    We're not trying to be busier in 2026. We're trying to be more intentional, more present, more skilled, and more engaged with our real lives.
    Pick one thing today that can't be undone… and let that be enough. 🤍

  • Rest Isn't Just Sleep, Ya'll
    Jun 4 2025

    Let's Talk About the Rest We Really Need (And Probably Aren't Getting)
    In this episode, Tanya and Jen take a much-needed breather and invite you to do the same. We're not just talking about getting more sleep (although yes, please)—we're diving into the whole wild world of rest: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and even the kind you need after too much small talk. 😅

    From personal confessions about burnout to laugh-out-loud moments about introvert crashes and DMV despair, we're sharing how we try to rest and why it's okay, essential, even, to stop and exhale.

    You'll walk away with real-life tips, a few giggles, and permission to put your phone on Do Not Disturb.
    So grab a cozy blanket (or hide in your car for 45 minutes—we don't judge), and press play.

  • An Award Winning Podcast
    Mar 3 2025
    Welcome back, friends! In this episode of the Superlatively Yes Podcast, Jennifer and I discuss various topics ranging from awards and personal achievements to fashion insights and conspiracy theories. We get tickled by our personal experiences with award-winning and losing, discuss a trending TikTok personality, and talk about what we are currently watching, including shows like Severance. Also, Jen tells me some very disappointing news about the Publishers Clearing House. We also explore the significance of awards and recognition in both personal and professional contexts. We reflect on our own achievements, the prestige of major awards like the Nobel Peace Prize and the Pulitzer Prize, and the journey of creativity in writing. Of course, we give made-up awards to one another for home management and finding lost items. Most importantly, we discuss the importance of acknowledging personal achievements, embracing flaws, and letting go of unnecessary competition. The conversation also touches on the significance of remembering others, the challenges of consumer culture, and the journey of personal growth and resilience. Thanks so much for hanging out with us.

  • The Pressure We Put On Passion
    Mar 2 2025

    In this episode, Jennifer and I delve into the multifaceted concept of passion, exploring its role in our lives (beyond the romantic notion often associated with it.) We discuss the pressures society places on individuals to find and monetize their passions, the importance of recognizing that passion can evolve, and the idea of Ikigai as a guiding principle for finding purpose. Also, we talk about nurturing passion without the burden of expectation, allowing it to enrich our lives instead of dictating our career paths. Thanks so much for being here, Tanya

    • Nurturing passion can lead to unexpected opportunities and growth.
    • Hard work and honest jobs have intrinsic value, even if they aren't our passion.
