How did we spend a weekend that was way too hot for this time of year but still lovely (actually not for Lia) and how are we going to make decisions this summer? Should we actually sometimes get up at 4 am or is that ridiculous? But also, self-praise does not always stink but is super hard and maybe needs to be trained a bit.

This week we find ourselves talking about the same things again as many times. How to lead a healthy lifestyle both physically and mentally? How can we stick to our rules and intentions? And how could maybe learning more about dopamine help us with these? But also, how many push-ups can Lia actually do and when will Paulina get a new Bikini?

This week we discuss how we celebrate Easter, how many push-ups we can do, and how we try to live a fit lifestyle but we also talk about jumping too far out of our comfort zones, how we set goals, and if we are achieving them because we are realistic or because we are smart :) Check out WAYKS HERE * to see their versatile and sustainable range of backpacks and luggage.

What kinds of books did Lia read? And how is Paulina's dating life going? Also, do we have a strategy to document our lives, apart from whether that is even important? In this week's episode we speak about do's and don'ts when dating, if anyone in 100 years is interested in our lives in our twenties, and how Paulina wants to go forward with shopping (or not shopping) for her closet.

Paulina made some exciting decisions and has a lot to look forward to now and Lia is a bit sad that some of her travel plans won't work out. But how will we be sure that traveling with friends is fun and we don't annoy each other? What can we hope to gain from traveling alone and how stressful can traveling with family and friends be? Most importantly: Where will we travel this year? Check out Colorful Standard * and get 10% off with the code MOREORLESSCS10 Yo...

This week we talk about exhausting days and weekends, how becoming an adult changed our perspectives on taxes, vacuum cleaners, and social plans, and about the fact that we don't have any responsibility to be pretty, and how much a noninclusive society is just making life harder for the majority of people.

Lia did something last week that she wanted to do for a long time, Paulina feels guilty for something she shouldn't have to and we both talk about going around in circles when learning something or wanting to change our lives. But one more question: Can women and men be friends? Let's talk about this question that somehow really lacks the sense of diversity in our society but also has way too many devoted believers.

The dating drama doesn't stop and this time it gets extra problematic. We talk through the situations and try to understand and organize our thoughts and make sure that we are not blaming ourselves for abusive behavior. But also, how were our trips to Switzerland and the other side of Germany? Did the train connections work out and what did we spend our time with there? And how is the selection of vegan products in Swiss supermarkets? Check out Colorful Standard *...

This week we want to talk about several topics revolving around new things in our lives. Paulina started her new job, we both have a new hobby and we also want to share our opinions on Valentine's Day advertisements (and how it is maybe making us feel bad and is not sustainable..?)

Today we are answering your questions and talking about why we buy things. Is it because we need them, because we want them, because someone has it, or because it was advertised to us?

Paulina went skiing on icy slopes and Lia went ice skating on dangerous natural ice. So what did we learn from that?

Today, let's talk about decluttering, shopping, and when these things are actually about the stuff we buy or get rid of.

Do you wish you were on vacation right now? Would you like to be more like the person you are following online? Or do you simply think your friends get to do more fun stuff than you?

We spend a lot of our time working, and honestly, our existence also relies on working. Our lifestyle is impacted by our salary and the social contacts we have often relate to our jobs as well.

Secondhand shopping can save so much money and resources. So it's just a good idea in general. But the system is not perfect.
