Superlatively Yes is about relationships, life, and finding the humor and grace in all of it, despite all of it. We say a "Superlative Yes" to love, friendship, fun, and travel. Life is too short, sweet, and tricky to do alone. We carve out time for the things that matter: things of the heart and soul. Tanya and Jasa never want you to feel lonely or stuck. Join us weekly for The Superlatively Yes Podcast, where we laugh, shop, discover, and treasure this fun-filled adventure of life.

An Award Winning Podcast

Welcome back, friends! In this episode of the Superlatively Yes Podcast, Jennifer and I discuss various topics ranging from awards and personal achievements to fashion insights and conspiracy theories. We get tickled by our personal experiences with award-winning and losing, discuss a trending TikTok personality, and talk about what we are currently watching, including shows like Severance. Also, Jen tells me some very disappointing news about the Publishers Clearing House. We also explore the significance of awards and recognition in both personal and professional contexts. We reflect on our own achievements, the prestige of major awards like the Nobel Peace Prize and the Pulitzer Prize, and the journey of creativity in writing. Of course, we give made-up awards to one another for home management and finding lost items. Most importantly, we discuss the importance of acknowledging personal achievements, embracing flaws, and letting go of unnecessary competition. The conversation also touches on the significance of remembering others, the challenges of consumer culture, and the journey of personal growth and resilience. Thanks so much for hanging out with us. We think YOU deserve an AWARD! Tanya
