Podcast #89 from ASlobComesClean - Dealing With Hard Things - Interview with Mary Carver

Subscribe: RSS

I don’t think I’m cut out for interviews, y’all. I like the talking part, but the technical stuff does me in. This one is WAY better than the last (and first) interview a month ago, but it exhausted my limited editing skills and still has a bajillion flaws.

Sorry.

But the content is good! I talked to Mary Carver of GivingUpOnPerfect.com who co-authored the book: Choose Joy: Finding Joy and Purpose when Life Hurts, which you can get on Amazon (through my affiliate link) or wherever books are sold.

The book’s focus is the perspective of Mary’s co-author, Sara Frankl, who passed away in 2011 after dealing with severe chronic pain for years. We talk about decluttering stories, thought redirection and more.

And we also talk about fun stuff, too. Like Tide Pods (<-affiliate link). Mary loves them, and I actually ordered some when I went to grab the link and saw that there’s a 2.00 off coupon right now!

Also mentioned: My new amazon link!! Just go straight to ASlobComesClean.com/amazon and you’ll go straight to Amazon through my affiliate link! No need to search for an affiliate link on the site. (P.S. I greatly appreciate those who use my affiliate links!)

Be a patron! Next patron only hangout will be Monday evening at 7 p.m. Central!

Time to Go – When the Plate’s Crack Can No Longer Be Pretended Away

March 22, 2016 By Dana White 3 Comments

I rock at living in denial. I loved these dishes I bought at Pier 1 in my first year of marriage. (Or maybe my mom gave them to me. It’s been almost 17 years, y’all.) In the year after I’d received every single piece of the other six sets of dishes I’d included in my […]

It really does just start with clean dishes!

Dana/Nony here: A story from one of you, who (just like me) never thought something as simple as washing the dishes would have such a huge impact: Thinking back, when I set out to clean the house, the very first thing was the dishes then it migrated to the kitchen and out from there. […]

My Favorite Easy (but a little weird) Lunch – Spinach and Mozzarella

March 17, 2016 By Dana White 4 Comments

I love spinach and mozzarella together. My husband has been known to brag that I can make any version of those two ingredients taste great. Working at home, I struggle so much with lunch. If I actually remember to eat it (seriously, this is a recurring problem), I often get frustrated by my lack of […]

Searching for the Schtank. (Identifying the Nasty Smell in My Fridge)

March 14, 2016 By Dana White 8 Comments

I’d known there was a problem. I started knowing when I got a whiff one day as I dug through my fridge. I continued knowing when the same kind of whiff happened every time I opened it. I knew something had to be done when I was in the living room and realized someone had […]

Working Through The Feeling of Being Overwhelmed

March 8, 2016 By Dana White 17 Comments

Remember when I compared Swiffer with the store brands last week? Remember the overwhelming mess when I pulled out the couch? Right. I made it through that mess in 8 minutes that included finding my camera and (random affiliate link alert) an extra SD card when the first one was full. Unfortunately, I have plenty […]
