A lot has been happening in our corner of the world this week, so we spend a good amount of time catching up. Ceara got to see her family out in South Carolina and have some quality sibling time. Allison was busy at the shop with Black Friday, is having another existential crisis, and is inviting some new perspectives in.

We got the idea for this episode from The Aubrey Marcus Podcast # 317 ‘Secrets of Taoism and The Rebel Monk’ where they discussed a piece of literature. We thought it would be fun to share some quotes from our favorite books that we’ve been reading lately. The conversation goes a few different directions as the quotes spark a variety of topics. This is a mini Self-Help-Bible episode as we really cover a lot of ground. There’s certainly something for everyone in this one.
