Betina and Jen recount their most significant life transitions. They begin with a seasonal temp check, and there’s a high note when they discover that they each froze their butts off at the Mid-Winter Dental Meeting in Chicago before they met. Jen remembers her many attempts to find geographical cures for homelessness within herself, then loses it over the loss of her beloved Uncle Bob. Jen finds hope in letting his spirit live through her every day, and they both take inspiration from his equanimity and the joyful, unattached way he lived his life.0:00 Intros0:42 Life Seasons Temp Check05:08 Betina’s seasonal deep cleaning06:21 Backstory: Major transitions we’ve supported each other through10:01 Betina and Jen share their memories of freezing at the Midwinter Dental meeting in Chicago14:48 Jen’s geographical cures: 1st stop, Portland, Oregon21:20 Clubbing and how differently they approach it25:10 Betina’s conversations with her straight-laced daughters29:30 Jen betrayed by the sunshine in California35:00 The biggest transition in Jen’s life: Losing Uncle Bob45:40 Jen drawing back from relationships to make room to grieve54:40 Betina sharing a belief of a person dying when their life purpose is fulfilled58:00 Showing love through acts of service vs. EQ (emotional intelligence)62:50 Uncle Bob never tried to fix Jen in her brokenness; he just loved her / visit to New Orleans66:07 Life Focus: Embracing change while maintaining friendships78:17 Betina’s visit to NJ / Lightly salted potato chips79:30 RecipesRecipes: Season Transition Comfort FoodChicken Tortellini SoupSeason chicken breasts: seasoning salt, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, and black pepperbrown in the skillet with avocado oilremove and sautee onions, carrots. and garlicreturn chickenadd chicken brothseason with Italian seasoning, paprika, salt and pepperadd fresh rosemary and thymesimmer for 45 minutesremove chicken and chop roughlyPour in bag of tortelliniadd heavy cream and fresh parmesan cheeseJen’s Broccoli Mushroom SoupSautee one finely chopped onion in olive oilBrown 8 oz mushroomsAdd 3 cloves minced garlicAdd 4 cups vegetable stock and 1 small head broccoli and bring to a boil, then simmer for 40 minUse blender or immersion blender to blendAdd ½ cup heavy cream and ½ cup parm, salt and pepper to tasteServe hot with fresh parsley and crusty breadMusic Credits:00:00 “For My Good” - AFTR14:30 “Zigaboos Walk” - El Flaco Collective26:22 “spot” - Cushy34:10 “Summer’s Hot” - Katori Walker51:25 “Is It Over Now” - Gloria Tells66:05 “Cramp Blues” - John Runefelt78:02, 88:23 “Sunset” - OTE
