In this episode, we dive into everything reading, and more specifically, tips for how to get out of a reading slump. As two gals who used to be avid readers, life happened, and we fell off the bandwagon. More recently, we’ve both fallen back in love with reading and in this episode, we chat about everything from our favorite book genres to the cozy spots that make reading pure bliss. We cover: Our favorite book genresOur favorite spots to read and best practices (in a cozy chair, park, hammock, in the sun, leaving our phones inside, etc)Our love of library cards and its benefits Thoughts on e-books and audiobooksTips on how to get into reading if you don’t love it or have lost your passion for itClocking books you’ve read on GoodreadsOur thoughts on not finishing a book if you aren’t vibingHow to decide if you should buy or borrow a bookWe also take a little convo detour to talk about probiotics and eating fermented foods SPONSORS + DISCOUNTS:  This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
