Episode 18: What's Happening Every Month That's Leaving People Inspired and Connected in COS?
Ever had a bagel so good it makes you question your life choices? Or found yourself hypnotized by a bridal fashion show even though you’re not getting married? This week, Carly and Lauren take you on a wild ride through their weekend—where chive cream cheese becomes a guilty pleasure, a local bakery keeps them up at night (because it’s that good), and a spontaneous trip to Skate City turns into an unexpected balancing act. Oh, and let’s not forget the great landscaping debate—DIY or hire a pro?
But that’s just the warm-up! The real magic happens when Kristen Baker joins the conversation to talk about Mindful Mornings (find on Facebook and Instagram)—an event series that redefines networking by bringing people together to connect on a deeper level. Forget awkward small talk; this is about real conversations, discovering what lights you up, and building meaningful relationships.
Whether you’re looking for inspiration, a fresh perspective, or just a reason to get out of the house on a Friday morning, this is the episode for you.
Plus, Carly and Lauren give you the inside scoop on upcoming local events, from book clubs where silence is golden (but is it really for extroverts?) to can’t-miss community gatherings that will make your weekends even better.
Grab your coffee, settle in, and get ready for an episode packed with laughs, inspiration, and plenty of local love. Hit play now!
