This week we are talking about weddings and tips and tricks for your Big Day so you walk down the aisle with confidence! But FIRST — we have a very special announcement: Corinne is engaged!!

Since there’s so much planning involved, an emergency wedding kit and wedding to-do lists can be essential for the Big Day.
Plus, Corinne shares what she’s learned during her wedding planning process and the importance of talking to recently married couples along the way. Oh, and be sure to keep an eye out on Corinne’s Instagram page (down the road) for pictures from her own wedding!

It's only August, but Corinne's throw pillows are already transitioning to fall, the pumpkins are out, and we're feeling those autumn vibes! Today, we're catching up and chatting about Corinne's spontaneous trip to Mexico, the new tools Natalie uses to manage her ADHD, and how we're still prioritizing our gut health. We reminisce on the golden age of the internet, from the YouTube classics like "Shoes" and "Muffins" to the chaotic (and probably sketchy) era of LimeWire and YouTube-to-MP3 converters. And is it just us, or does today's popular music seem to be going downhill? Either way, grab your bottled Pink Drink and join us for another episode!

You may have heard the phrase, “The only constant in life is change.” Today, we are talking about the major life transitions that we all go through: how people react to change, and how we can learn to embrace change in our own lives.
In this episode, we’re discussing the impact of change, including its history, the most common life changes experienced, three stages of life transitions (and the different reactions we can have to each!), and how to reframe uncomfortable feelings and emotions around change.
Lastly, how do you feel about a Color Theory or Kibbe Body Type episode? Send us a DM and let us know. And we’re always open to ideas for future show topics!
