It isn’t always easy to appreciate the mundane tasks of our daily lives, or to see the glass half-full when something goes awry. Inspired by yet another social media trend that had us scratching our heads at first (and then reflecting in spite of our forty-something selves), today Meagan and Sarah talk about situations from our own lives where we romanticized the hard stuff to get by. Join us!

It isn’t always easy to appreciate the mundane tasks of our daily lives, or to see the glass half-full when something goes awry. Your dishwasher breaking (and not being able to replace it) or eating beans for a week (to save money on groceries) doesn’t sound quite so romantic, does it? Well, thanks to a tik-tok trend (that happened to make it’s way to instagram), Meagan and Sarah are reframing some situations from our own lives where we romanticized the hard stuff to get by. Join us as we reflect, appreciate the small stuff and also question the way some influencers romanticize their daily tasks on social.
