Mama Says Namaste Podcast


Welcome to the Mama Says Namaste podcast. I’m Ashley Logsdon, joined by awesome husband Nathan as my cohost and partner in life.  As we RV the States full time and unschool our girls, we invite you not to only hear our story, but create your own.

We’ll take you from chaos to clarity by understanding personality styles, bringing awareness and intention into your home, not waiting for “one day”, and highlighting how the uniqueness in each of us strengthens all of us. 

Each week we deliver a podcast that is under an hour (typically 25 min), diving deep into the topics that we believe help create an "intentional family".  

For the full intro, check out episode 000: What is all this "Mama Says Namaste" Stuff?

The final wrap-up to this series - what is your intention for your relationships?

This is the second series on the Mama Says Namaste Podcast with my most favorite guest (and partner for life), Nathan Logsdon.  In this series, we dig deep into the critical components that create a healthy and happy intimate relationship - join us as we discuss

Laughter, Humble Pie, and Lots of Sex!

 

They say love is the best investment.  The more you give, the more you get in return.  Audrey Hepburn

 

In our summary podcast, here are all the things we’ve dug into in this season:

Communication is such an important foundation - being able to have an honest conversation with your partner and not simply walk on eggshells.

How to navigate disagreements - you cannot hide tension in your home - that energy will permeate and create a heavy cloud in your home. 

Here is my mother’s book - for insights into my own childhood as well as the foundation of peace we have carried in to our own home: Creating a Haven of Peace: When You're Feeling Down, Finances Are Flat, and Tempers are Rising (http://amzn.to/2vGN9GR)

Respect and teamwork - we are a united front - what is your ultimate goal?

Growability - say “I’m sorry” and take ownership/responsibility for your part.  Ask “What am I missing?  How can I make this better?”

Be a lifelong learner - there is always something more to learn about and discover with one another - if you are both growing and changing every day, there is always something new to talk about and explore.

Laughter and play - take time to reset.  Step away and have fun.  Allow for laughter and happiness just in the present moment.

Time management - set clear boundaries and be intentional about what you want to focus on.  Vocalize your priorities and commit to making them happen.

Sexual intimacy - what is your love language?  How are you connecting and spending focused time investing in one another?  Are you speaking in a way that resonates with them, or simply you?

 

What do you want this life to be?

Challenge - just reach out and connect.  Go back to the basics.  Find your main focus to get you started.  Remember love. 

 

And remember, if you’re liking what you hear, we want to hear from you!
