In this bold episode, Angie & Shelly get real about what it means to take chances—from career leaps to garden plots to scary new beginnings. Whether you’re a ready-fire-aim person or a crockpot-decision-maker, this one’s about chasing dreams (even if you get a little muddy along the way).

🎯 Defining "Risk" – Why risk feels scary, why it’s necessary for growth, and why it’s not always about bungee jumping.

💸 Career Leaps of Faith – Angie and Shelly share the biggest risks they took in their careers—and why they wouldn’t go back.

🌱 Garden Gambles – From planters to canning ambitions, when starting small feels like a big (and worthwhile) chance.

🧠 Microwave Decisions vs. Crockpot Thinking – How we make decisions, when to trust your gut, and when it’s smarter to slow cook your choices.

❤️ Relationship Risks – Loving big, trusting deep, and understanding that sometimes the scariest risks have the sweetest rewards.

🔄 Risk vs. Reward in Different Seasons – Why risk-taking looks different in your 20s, 40s, and 60s—and how to keep saying yes to life without losing your mind.
