Show Notes

This week is part 2 in a conversation we started last week with Stephen and Jennie Jones about coping and new beginnings. In today’s episode, we talk about some of the new ways of handling stress, hobbies, and potential new beginnings the Jones have discovered after being in Berlin for 6 months.

Some of those include old hobbies they have found ways to perform in Berlin and old interests they now have time to invest in.

We also talk about the expense of new hobbies and the challenge of knowing whether these new hobbies are just temporary fits or something that will be a long-term new beginning.
