068: Humility And Average Friends This week we talk about being humble, being prideful, and how it can affect the people you interact with. We also talk about focusing on surrounding yourself with good friends vs focusing on being a good friend.

Hanna isn't here this week. She's at a conference in Utah for young living essential oils. She's killing the business and putting lots of hard work into it. We're hustling with all our different endeavors, she's been gone this whole week and I'm gone all next week with my high school students up to hume for summer camp. But you have got to make sacrifices. Everyone wants to make a difference but if you're not willing to live differently then you probably won't. So we're doing things differently but it's not easy. In this episode I talk a little bit about why we're doing the podcast and how it's been such a blessing even though it's silly. If we use technology differently we can make a difference and that's what we're trying to do. Share real life stuff. In this weeks episode I play some rough drafts of the songs I've been working on lately. Tell me what you think if you're into music or whatever. Constructive criticism is always welcome here.

This week we split up the episode into two segments: Zach talks about personal responsibility, getting offended and why the little things matter. Hanna talks about packing. the dilemma of having too many clothes and the capsule wardrobe. Then we answer some questions from email and tumblr. We would love to hear from you!!!

Time is valuable. Probably the most valuable asset you have. If you don’t guard it well and use it wisely it will pass you by. We talk about how to time-block and why to time-block. Maybe it’s time to hit up some of those goals and cut some time-wasting habits out of your routine, hopefully this helps. Creativity is hard for some people. It requires work and (at least for us) it seems like some sort of process is needed. Unless we make something a priority, it never happens. Just because you're busy doesn't mean your creative process has to die. It just has to be focused. The hard thing for me is that I want to have everything polished and high-quality. But you've just got to start first - and your first draft might suck, but keep working. It's a never ending circle and I think I've got it dialed in - now I just have to make it a priority. The cycle for me is: explore learn apply create edit produce then rest. Send us your music recommendations and your fav healthy recipes & any new ice cream because if we’re eating healthy we can probably enjoy some extra ice cream right? We would love to hear from you!!!

Our cousins Jordan and Aneila join us again on the virgin journey of Sergeant Pepper (their custom truck camper). They got tired of paying rent when they were on the road and so the idea of ‘the searchers’ was born. Now that dream has become a reality and The Searchers are full time nomads. You can find them on instagram and follow along with their journey @thesearchers.co + @jordantbaker + @aneilanoelle We would love to hear from you!!!

Listen, we know Mother’s Day was yesterday but moms deserve to be celebrated and thanked more than one day a year, especially business-owning, stay-at home moms like Shailey & Katie. This week we got to chat with them about how to make business work when you’re raising kid, life-balance, the myth of having it all, social media, and where to draw a line between business and personal.

Do you ever have days in which you're negative about everything and don't want to do anything and everything sucks and your dirty dishes are everywhere and you just want to watch Netflix all day?

Everyone is different, everyone communicates differently and receives and processes differently. Understanding people is important not so that we can put them in a mental box and judge them, but so that we can better understand, love and serve them. Today we talk about another personality test, one that is less known but very interesting (at least for us).

This week we talk about arguing, disagreeing, fighting - whatever you might call it! We share very personal tips on how to argue, or rather how to communicate, in a more efficient way.

"Today, you won’t control the external events that happen. Is that scary? A little, but it’s balanced when we see that we can control our opinion about those events. You decide whether they’re good or bad, whether they’re fair or unfair. You don’t control the situation, but you control what you think about it. See how that works? Every single thing that is outside of your control...still presents a corresponding area that is in your control. This alone gives us plenty to manage... Best of all, an honest understanding of what is within our control provides real clarity about the world: all we have is our own mind. Remember that today when you try to extend your reach outward—that it’s much better and more appropriately directed inward." -Ryan Holiday The Daily Stoic: a.co/cFF9RAo Zach’s Recommendations: titushaug.bandcamp.com whatwedoinsecret.bandcamp.com soundcloud.com/garden-echo Leave us a voicemail at: 1(805) 242-6559 Instagram: @thewayfampodcast Like us on:  facebook.com/thewayfam If you have questions or suggestions or jokes or ideas, ask us at: thewayfam.tumblr.com or email us at thewayfampodcast@gmail.com we love ya!! xoxo
