Aggressively Helpful? That seems like a mismatched pair of words. How can one be both 'aggressive' and 'helpful' at the same time? The name may seem like an oxymoron, but that's where its charm lies. Dawn and Julia bring their enthusiastic approach to life with a firm helping hand and a smile... whether you like it or not.

Sometimes It Only Takes One Goal 28:15

Send us a text We all have something in our lives that we would like to improve. Sometimes it is our whole life we wish we could make better. The key is to find a small goal in the places that could use a little improvement and achieve it. Don't celebrate too much when you do; just have a new goal ready to go. We should also take the time to find goals outside of our life's constellation once in a while. We put this podcast together to have a fun goal we could achieve as a team. It was outside of our comfort zone and it has been a great time, but we also got to know each other better as we discuss our strengths and weaknesses. When we found out, that out of the 150 million podcast episodes out there, 44% of those podcasts have less than 3 episodes. We can do that! That was our goal and we met that small challenge. It feels pretty good. More of this, or time for a new goal?…
