Life is full of projects. Some are fun, like my album project of 2026, and some are less fun, like cleaning out a garage. But we all have them, will continue to have them, and you can probably think of one that needs doing right now. It’s nice to hav... more
Well, friends, my voice has officially left the building. She’s been gone for a week now, and despite my best efforts (and an unreasonable amount of tea), she has not returned.
So today, we’re doing something a little different. A very special guest... more
We do these episodes once a quarter where I share the things - big, small, and varied - that are saving my life right now. It’s a beloved practice, one we’ve been doing for a long time together. Barbara Brown Taylor was the person originally credited... more
Today we’re running an old episode that I think you’ll appreciate hearing now. It’s Episode 238: How to Get Stuff Done When You Don’t Feel Like It. This happens every day, and I hope these tools help you get your stuff done a little more easily.

Very American-centric and not very accessible to listeners who live outside of the United States. I had been misled to think the podcasts would include life hacks accessible to anyone, but many of her recommendations include very specific brands and stores. If you live in a country where these stores are not available (Trader Joe's for example), the recommendations are not accessible, and the podcast actually feels non-inclusive of listeners who do not live in the United States.
I love Kendra, but sadly I had to unfollow when the podcast/newsletter got too political. I will miss my Monday listens.
I look forward to seeing a new episode on Mondays, so I can listen while I run errands. Kendra discusses a lot home management topics (as well as other things). I appreciate the insight as a SAHM. I don’t need to agree or relate to everything to enjoy her perspective. The entire collection of episodes and quality/thoughtfulness that is put into them is definitely worth five stars.
In 2025 I took a year off from the podcast app just to be present to those in my real life and build community. It was exactly what I needed.
This week was my first week listening to your podcast again, and I looked for a title that I thought would fit something I needed. The chores for normals was really helpful. But it was the call back to episode 427 regarding what to do when we feel
overwhelmed that really spoke to me. Making use of the Lazy Genius Principles, something so practical, that ... more
I keep coming back to Kendra’s podcast and books over and over again. I think there are similar messages out there but the way she puts it in the frame work of being a genius about what matters and lazy about what doesn’t is the best I have found. Thank you Kendra and team for all you do, it has blessed and encouraged me greatly 🩷✨
