Ep. 32 - It’s Okay to Be Single!

Michelle Maros & Barb Schmidt
About this episode

In this week’s episode, Barb and Michelle get vulnerable again with a discussion on relationships, marriage, and being single in your 30’s. We all feel the societal pressure to tick all the boxes and live up to expectations. In this conversation, we’ll dive into how we both have been letting this pressure go, and how to live life, on your own terms.

Follow us @MichelleMaros and @Peaceful_Barb and share your experiences with us @BarbKnowsBestPod or at www.michellemaros.com/podcast.

Episode Notes:

The relationship that we have with ourselves is the most important relationship you will have in life. And it is the foundation of all of the other relationships
