#155: Can "The Rule Of Age 10" Really Pr...

Sherry & John Petersik
About this episode

Today we're exploring an expert's theory that your childhood passions (specifically around 5th grade) could hold the key to what you'll love doing most as an adult. It was fascinating to take a look back and see if the idea really held up for us. We're also confessing to a mistake we made when hiring a pro for a recent house project and sharing what we'll do differently from here on out. Plus it turns out that plants aren't the powerful air purifiers we were promised, and the nerdiest decorating project you've ever heard in your life.
