In this week’s episode of Best of Both Worlds, Sarah and I provide a guide for surviving and possibly enjoying long weekends (like Labor Day weekend coming up soon). From making plans (and getting out of the house) to trading off, to having something to look forward to, there are lots of ways to make the most of this time, and maybe even have some fun too.

Please give the episode a listen! In the Q&A we address the topic of whether to get a minivan when kid #3 is on the way.

If you’d like to join a community that discusses these and other topics related to work and life, please consider joining our Patreon community. Currently we’ve been talking about how couples manage their finances (including joint vs. separate accounts, and expense tracking/budgeting software). Next week we’ll also be doing a time management seminar as our official August Zoom meet-up. Membership is $9/month. Hope to see you there!
