This Summer season, we’re taking the time to give back to our community with a topic that is near and dear to us. Our TV time. Going into this fall season, we want to provide the UFR community with a guide for their binge watching. If you find yourself in the habit of watching the same two shows over and over again (Don’t worry, we love Stranger Things too), we encourage you to listen and find a new show. Today’s episode is particular to dramas that we encourage you to binge watch.

Throughout our Monday Message series we have placed an emphasis on finding happiness in your life and making it a priority. The goal since UFR’s inception was to provide value to our listeners, and we’ve placed an emphasis on living a happier life. Two of the happiest people we have had the pleasure of interviewing come on the podcast and talk about their thoughts on life, how they find happiness and advice they have for listeners looking to live a happier life.

We all can use a little adventure in our lives. Sometimes though the social media world we live in can have us feeling anxious about our lack of “spice” so to speak. Alternatively, it is all too common that we get caught in our own routines and get comfortable in the day-to-day. In today’s Monday Message, we detail the reasons to move away from “excuse-thinking” when it comes to adding adventure in our life, and a solid strategy to prioritize getting out of your comfort zone in your life.

Self-Care imperative to living and happy life. Without proper self care we find ourselves in a life filled with anxiety and stress.

It is finally here. The first episode of the UFR Passions series features local Boise Hip-Hop artist, Madisun Proof.

We’ve talked plenty about the importance of being happy and doing what makes you happy. We feel that happiness is inherently tied to passion, but some of us are in different stages of our “passion lives.” For some of us, it's about defining passion, for others, it’s about pursuing our passion and for so many of us, it’s about taking that leap to start pursuing what we love. This podcast touches on all three phases and hopefully acts as motivation to take action. Now is the time to take your passion to the next level.

Us, moreso than most, are about trying to see the positive in every situation and reacting with happiness and empathy. What do we do when life throws negativity into the mix though? We constantly face negative people, negative environments and negative situations. What can we do to respond to these people, situations and environments? On today’s Monday Message host, Nathan Carroll, breaks down what he’s learned on his journey to being a more positive person and how to deal with negative surroundings.
