Big Bartender Energy - Not Pregnant! Tism 8

Well, Touch of the Tism is two weeks late.

Before anybody asks... no, none of us are pregnant. 😂

Honestly, we've just been busy being adults, which frankly feels like a design flaw. Between BottleRock, gallery resets, work, chronic pain, family stuff, and trying to remember where we left our keys, this episode took a little longer to make it out into the world.

This one starts with us catching up and quickly devolves into the usual chaos.

We talk about weird things people say when they think nobody is listening, what your bartender is probably thinking when you don't tip, breaking expensive things at work, leading teams when you're exhausted, and the weird guilt that comes with asking for grace when your struggles aren't always visible.

There's also a conversation about chronic pain that hit a little harder than I expected. Because sometimes you're doing your absolute best and from the outside it just looks like you're running late.

If you've ever been overwhelmed, underestimated, overworked, in pain, or just trying to hold your shit together with duct tape and caffeine, this one's for you.

Thanks for hanging in the pond with us, my ducks. 💜

Listen now.
