Hi Everyone, thanks so much for listening to this episode! I mentioned that in 2017 Ancestry.com sold 1.5 million DNA testing kits! That’s like 2,000 gallons of saliva—enough to fill a modest above-ground swimming pool with the genetic history of every person in the city of Philadelphia. Here are a couple of links that may be of interest or helpful. And the gift idea I mention at the end, but is a bit cut off, is to give the gift of getting ones DNA tested :)

Hey All, Olivia Colman is one of my favorite actors. I can't say enough about her. In 2019 she received an Oscar for her role in The Favourite. Her acceptance speech is hilarious, heartwarming and wickedly funny. She acknowledged her fellow actors, director, agent, family, friends and little girls out there dreaming of such a time as this. Talk about gratitude. What if we were to imagine ourselves receiving an award. Who would we thank? Whose shoulders have we stood on? Who has inspired us and called us to great things and a bigger life? What if we were to draft our own acceptance speech?
Mentioned in this weeks episode, plus a few extra:
- Broadchurch
- The Crown
- The Favourite
- The Father
- The Lost Daughter
- Landscapers
- 73 Questions w/Olivia Colman | Vogue
With tremendous gratitude, Amy :)
Hey Everyone, last week I talked about the idea that we can work to figure out our "why" for getting our affairs in order by considering the consequences if we put it off. Peach cobbler helped me think this through. This week I talk about the importance of having our vital documents gathered.

Bottom Left Drawer is birthed from this place of wanting to plan for the expected and the unexpected. AND wanting to provide an easy, straightforward way for others to do the same. In today's episode I talk about an experience I had with my Mom, one that inspired me to create Bottom Left Drawer.

This weeks episode is about lessons learned while thrifting.
We all get annoyed, right? Sometimes it's minor, I forgot a grocery bag and have to go back into the house to grab one. Other times the annoyance is so intense you have to step away to take a few deep breaths. Diving into the annoyance can be helpful. Even pausing and giving a moment or two of attention to the culprit can be worth the time. Without reflection we're often left with the feeling of frustration, anger, some variant of annoyance, until we're able to brush it off. Identifying what is happening can not only alleviate the annoyance, it can provide us with insight that leads us deeper into what we long for. Bottom Left Drawer is about getting our ducks in a row, so we're good to go. But, Bottom Left Drawer is NOT all about end-of-life planning, it's about living the life we want TODAY. Let annoyance be your friend, allow it to guide you, more fully, into the life you want today.
Thanks for listening!

Sometimes it takes someone outside of ourselves to show us something we wouldn't see otherwise. When a friend shares their perspective it is often times an act of generosity. I promise you, this has something to do with Dolphins. And it has to do with relationships and the treasure they can be. Thanks for listening!
