  • Life isn’t always direct. Sometimes while we’re working towards a goal we take a few more steps back than anticipated and it gets discouraging. But if we want to make a positive change, in ourselves and in the world, we have to keep moving forwards. Today, Danny shares some tips on how to keep going when nothing seems to be going right for you.

    You’re doing everything right but nothings working [1:36]

    It’s not bad, but it could be better [4:45]

  • Grief seems to have been a recurring theme in our lives, but we know now that it’s not just us—everyone is grieving. Grief isn’t always caused by big tragedies and devastating events. It can happen in the every day moments of rejection and misunderstanding, it can happen in the moments we feel overlooked and invisible. The world is silently grieving the versions of ourselves we’ve lost to the everyday pains in life. Today we brought back one of our favorite guests, Christina Rasmussen, an expert on grief, to talk about invisible loss and how we can work through our grief and get back to that essential, thriving self who is excited to wake up and change the world every day.

  • One thing we’ll never have enough of in this life is time, especially with our loved ones. As we get older and closer to the ages our parents were as they raised us, it feels important to get to know them not only as parents, but as peers. After all, Mom and Dad are people, too. Today, Jill is sharing some ideas you can use to start having more meaningful conversations and deeper relationships with your parents.

  • You know we’re into personal development here, but just because we are doesn’t mean that the men in our lives are, too. Everyone knows you can’t force someone to change, and making them become more self-aware or spiritually conscious is no exception—and maybe that’s a good thing. Our differences are something to be celebrated, not changed! So while it might be nice to have a man who’s just as interested in bettering himself as you are, make sure you’re appreciating you’re man for who he is.

  • We’ve seen some shit and like it or not, we’re left a little jaded after all the pain, mistrust, and heartbreak. Once upon a time, we were innocent and optimistic about life, but now we just feel like bitter old hags. Anyone else? Okay, we might be a little overdramatic, but it feels like that sometimes! When your old self “dies,” it doesn’t feel possible to get that hopeful feeling back. Even if we can’t un-know the things we know now, we can at least let our pain fuel us into being better people.

  • Making money is an important part of life—you need it to live! But it’s far more important to build a money system that takes care of you, so that if at any time your ability to earn money goes away, you’re still set up to live a happy life. Today, we have Mel Abraham on the show to open a dialogue about money because, as Mel says, financial freedom is your birth right, and he’s on a mission to help you get there. Plenty of us dream about being wealthy, but there’s a difference in having wealth and having a rich life. With your money machine running, you’ll be able to have both.

  • There’s this phrase we’ve been seeing online lately, maybe you’ve heard of it. Women and girls keep talking about things men do that give them “the ick” and we’re a little lost. Some people are saying things as basic as putting cream in their coffee gives them the ick, and others are saying that even a man wearing a hat is ick-worthy. Is there anything a man can do that *doesn’t* give the ick? Or are we fundamentally misunderstanding the concept of what is and isn’t giving ick. There is one thing we can all agree on though: the people getting the ick over stupid hats are right. No one needs to see that.

  • There are a million tasks on our to-do lists that we need to get done—and we don’t want to do any of them. There are so many little things we should be doing on any given day and the mental load of trying to remember them all is fucking exhausting. We know we should be eating healthy, going on walks, going to the gym, getting dental work, filing taxes, doing laundry, responding to emails (and the list goes on…) but goddamn it, we don’t want to! If you’re feeling the same, maybe it’s time we all cut our losses and get some help for the things we know we need to do but don’t, no shame necessary.

  • Custody battles can be ugly, especially over the one thing most important in our lives: our dogs. When a relationship ends, everything that was once “yours” as a couple needs to be divided up, including the pets. Sometimes it’s straightforward—if the dog likes you more, we say you get to keep it—but what if your ex still wants time with the dog? Can you split custody of a pet without it being a red flag for new partners? But most importantly, why do men have the audacity to think that they get to keep the dog when we’re the ones taking care of it? 💁🏻‍♀️

  • Attractive people just get more out of life, whether we want it to be true or not. But when you’re dating someone who’s just really attractive, it means they get a lot of attention, and it’s not always a good thing—for them, or for you. But hey, even if your partner is the hotter one in the relationship, maybe you should be proud instead of insecure. After all, you’re the one they fell for, even if you are ugly (😜). Of course, you can always sabotage your partner’s looks, or even better, only date people who are slightly less hot than you. Or we guess there’s the healthy way to cope, by working on your own insecurities. But that seems less fun.

  • You need to get a life. No, really. We don’t mean it as an insult—and trust us when we say this applies to us as well—but sometimes as girlfriends, wives, mothers, or just people pleasers in general, we spend so much of our lives doing so much for others that we forget to leave room to do anything for ourselves. For whatever reason, we lose ourselves, and it’s about time you dedicate some time and energy into doing something just for you. When you start doing things for you—when you get a life—you become a happier, more interesting person, you’re able to pull yourself out of a funk, you improve your relationships, and you finally get excited about your own life.

  • Sometimes the easiest way to keep up with friends is to follow along with their lives through social media, but people fall through the cracks, and occasionally you’ll see a friend posting a picture of their baby when you never knew they were pregnant to begin with. We aren’t besties with every single person we’ve ever had a friendship with, and there are plenty of people we care about but don’t always click with, for whatever reason. But in our experience, if you want a friend, you have to be a friend, and that looks like showing up for each other, being vulnerable, and allowing yourself to be seen in your full-humanity.

  • In 2020, Danny J and her boyfriend decided to experiment with starting a Shopify business, and in the process, they learned a lot. Starting an online business doesn’t have to look like starting a personal brand, and anyone can build one as long as you have the tenacity required. It may take some trial and error, but if you can learn as you go, you can build a thriving business without ever having to show your face.

  • Charisma—we all want it, but what exactly is it? And if we don’t have it naturally, are we just screwed? There’s a pervasive myth about charisma that you either have it or you don’t, and if you don’t have it, you can’t be taught, but we think that’s bullshit. Sure, some people are naturally charismatic, but you can definitely develop your own charisma, and it starts by understanding everything that makes someone charismatic. Once you know the areas you might need some work on, it’s easy to get tactical and work on feeling more likable.

  • We’re in need of online etiquette coaching, and quickly. We grew up being taught that if you can’t saying anything nice then you shouldn’t say anything at all, but that doesn’t seem to fly on the internet anymore. Our name for it is drive-by trolling: some stranger rolls into your comment section, says something so incredibly rude (that they’d never say to your face), and then gets mad if you try to defend yourself. And of course, they face no consequences for their asshole behavior. We’re sure it’s just a way for them to feel significant or important in some way, but we’re sick of being kicked around by some stranger on the internet that doesn’t have the confidence to share their own lives online. Maybe it’s time for some internet hall-monitors?

  • You get to choose your partner, but with them comes their family, and you certainly don’t get to choose your in-laws. So what do you do when there’s tensions between you and those in-laws and your partner doesn’t stick up for you?

  • We may have worked through our dieting obsessions and pushing our bodies to extremes, but that doesn’t mean everyone else has. Every now and then we see another person, stuck in the same cycle of food and body obsession that we were on in our younger years, and we can’t help but feel sad for them. Everyone has the right to the full life experience they desire, but seeing someone trapped in a mindset that hurt us for so long is difficult to watch. That’s why it’s so important to stay mindful of the ways we think of and talk about ourselves—after years, we’ve made peace with our bodies, and we’d like to keep it that way.

  • When you grow up a woman in this society, there are a number of ways we get socialized—to feel like we have to earn our worth, to second guess every choice we make, to hate our bodies, or that we’re never good enough. But when you realize that you have the power to change your thoughts, a whole new world of possibilities opens up for you. Today we got to chat with Kara Lowentheil of the UnFuck Your Brain podcast about her new book and her mission to help women get out of their own heads, own their experiences, and take up the space they deserve. Getting your mindset “right” is a huge part of living up to your highest potential—your best life—but it doesn’t have to be inaccessible and it doesn’t have to be “woo woo.” We can all take charge of our experiences, no matter how society has taught us we “should” behave.

  • We’ve all heard some 20-year-old trainer say that “age is just a number” when it comes to our training, but the truth is that fitness in our 40’s and beyond is different than what we used to do! Our bodies, hormones, and metabolisms are changing and that means we have to change our workout methods if we want to stay healthy and fit as we age. We know just how important it is to put on muscle, so today we’re chatting with Rachel Cosgrove about her new book, Age Strong, and why talking about women’s fitness after 40 matters so much. We want to look and feel good for as long as we can, and it starts with adapting our workouts to what works best at every age.

    Real life women with real life success stories [5:28]

    Putting on muscle as we age [9:38]

    The fear of injury [10:39]

    Why aren’t more women lifting weights? [16:33]

    Programming with pictures so you know what you’re doing [19:11]

    Focus on the fundamentals [26:10]

    Losing fat as your metabolism changes [29:44]

    When people fight for their limitations [34:30]

    It’s not just about a number on the scale [40:21]

    You just have to decide that you can [42:49]

    Focusing on what you can do, rather than how you look [45:13]

    Sometimes we need external motivation [50:41]
