Partial Solutions + Her Good List | 181

About this episode

Crystal and Tsh get into Marie Kondo, a new book they're both excited to read, and something Crystal's been doing weekly with her husband (and then Kyle & Tsh started doing this right after this conversation). And then springboarding off her somewhat-vulnerable post she shared this week, Tsh talks about the beauty of good ol’ partial solutions.

To round things out in the third segment, Stephanie and Tsh once more tackle another one of your travel questions.
