It’s that time of year again when you reflect on your many trips around the sun…birthday time! Hopefully you learn something from them, hopefully you put those lessons into action…either way it's all about growth! Carly turns 39 (providing 9 lessons) TODAY and Victoria turns 36 (providing 6 lessons) in the next two weeks…listen in on what has come up new this past year and what have resurfaced…lessons tend to stick around until they are truly learned, so you’ll hear how human and normal that really is.
—————
Real Tip of the Day: Do it!
Take time to reflect on your years at your birthday or maybe just do it now! It’s amazing how much you realize without even knowing it!
Lets make it EXTRA! No, really. Do it!
It’s not tricky….just get it done!

It feels like there is tragedy all around us at all times all over the world. Feeling hopeless and helpless is a very common emotional response. We just had a local tragedy at our childhood grade school, St. Francis of Assisi, when it was engulfed in flames and burnt down. While everyone got out safely, the weight of distress is heavy in our community. With disaster comes community, hope, love, and action….and that is what we wanted to talk about! How can we help? How can we efficiently lend a hand or a heart to those in need? What are the best ways to show we care? Tune in for all of these answers…and of course, a little humor ;) If you want to donate to any cause, volunteer in any way, or start the process for yourself on how to feel hopeful in a hopeless situation…CHECK OUT THE REFERENCE LINKS BELOW that will direct you to amazing organizations already in the fight for humanity.

It is officially Spooky Season and we SO here for it! This season brings so many exciting things like pumpkins, sweaters, cold mornings, and the main topic of today’s chat….all things scary! Horror movies, thrillers. Haunted houses, and friendly prank scares…we all react to them differently. There is a reason why some of us love the rush and some of us absolutely stay away from them all. Which one are you?? We talk through all of the physical symptoms our bodies go through when reacting to fear and why highly sensitive people just can’t handle the heat. Check out the reference links for more!

If we asked you to stop and think of anyone you know that is always playing the victim in situations and never taking responsibility, could you name someone? Maybe two people? What if it is you?? We all can have the tendency to living in a Victim Mentality. Blaming other’s for our misfortune, being a catastrophist in any situation, living in a dark cloud of depression or anxiety…and so many more signs. We get really down and dirty with it, maybe even helping a personal situation of our own in the process. The Victim Mentality is no joke, so make sure you give this chat a good listen and truly take a moment to be honest with yourself if any thing feels like a place that you live….theres always time to make improvements! Check out the links below!

We got a lot of requests for an online dating episode and here it is! We hope it resonates with you to talk about the trials and tribulations in some shared experiences. It is 2024 and the main form of dating is to download an APP and swipe yes or no until you are thoroughly burnt out. It is exhausting. No matter what phase you’re in: 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, etc. online dating has pros and cons. Yes, believe it or not there are positives to the experience! We chat about it all and make sure you make it to the end where we have a fun time reading some ridiculous bios that are for pure fun (and to share the struggle of finding genuine and “normal” people in your filter search). Get out there! Be genuine! Ask for what you want! DO NOT SETTLE FOR LESS THAN WHAT YOU DESERVE!

We are so used to having any type of food we want in any season right at our finger tips. We don’t think twice about what to get at the store or when to get it because whatever we need is always there. However, what if we shift our eating to what happens seasonally with our local farmer’s harvest? The amount of environmental and nutritional benefits are more than what we ever thought of…and if you’re anything like us, you did not think about this too much at all. This is one where you definitely want to check out the reference links below to see the full list per season of what produce is the best to put on your table and in your families bellies!
—————
Real Tip of the Day: Coffee!
Check out the more organic bags of coffee or more local bags of coffee at your grocery store. The price is a little bit more, but the taste will prove its worth it!
Lets make it EXTRA! Get Social!
Get on social media and check out when your town or the closest town is having a farmer’s market! Schedule it into your weekly or monthly routine of you and your family!

We hope you tune in and learn something new, just enjoy the chat, and of course we hope you smile today!

We sat down with one of the most positive people we know, Barbara O’Neill! She is a CFITer, a Mom, a Spanish teacher, and tennis player, and SO MUCH MORE. Barbara has an incredible story about her journey with Multiple Sclerosis. We are so grateful for her generosity in sharing her story, giving us the facts, and inspiring us with how she keeps such an amazing perspective! Whether you have been diagnosed or are a support system for a friend/family member, this chat will resonate. Thank you, Barbara, for being so amazingly badass!

If you have noticed we took a brief hiatus from our Bloop! tracks the past few weeks. We were eon vacation and made some Mini episodes so we wanted to keep everything off of the cutting room floor…that podcast talk ;)…but we’re back, baby! Episode 81 is all about helping get back to reality after vacation and we jumped right in, so this bloop has some tidbits from the chat and clearly vacation has left our brains mushy….but as usual, we hope you smile and/or chuckle to day!

Originally we set out for Episode 80 to be another Mini, Melody tells us why at the beginning, however it turned out way more fun than we anticipated so its a pretty solid length! Whether or not you are a reality TV enthusiast and watch all things BRAVO or you stay away from the stuff…this episode is quite entertaining! Victoria has no idea what is going on, Carly is exceptionally skilled at her trivia, Melody is just here for the ride, and you will hopefully chuckle, giggle, or laugh out loud during your listen. We highly recommend to listen to the end and go around your table making your own tag lines….tune in to see what we mean! We hope you enjoy and we hope you smile today!

You may notice that this episode is significantly shorter than our usual weekly chat, but don’t you worry…it is jam packed of fun and ridiculousness just like normal. We are currently on vacation! A 30 year family tradition, but we didn’t want to take off from our 79 week streak…so in the midst of packing and planning we recorded a few moments of fun for you to enjoy! No big thinking on how to change your life, no major thoughts on what self-care tips we haven’t implemented into our lives yet, and nothing pertaining our fitness journeys…just plain old fashioned fun! When is the last time you took a moment out of your schedule to have fun that just makes you laugh until you giggle or helps you forget what’s going on in your world just to lighten your shoulders…not often, right? Well we thought that’s what you’d say. So here is Carly torturing Victoria with some Pop Culture and Disney Trivia t….and make sure you listen all the way through, there is a special guest that pops in to help out!

It is incredibly alarming to sit and think that we are already 6 full months into the year of 2024! How did that happen? When did that happen?? And most importantly, have you committed yourself to the goals and intentions you set for yourself back on January 1, 2024? Have those goals changed since then? Or are you more similar to us in the face that you have failed in initiating and keeping some of the goals you set out to accomplish? That’s where Episode 76 comes in. We are VERY honest about our intentions, our follow through, our failures, and some behind-the-scenes things you probably won’t be expecting. We pride ourselves on being real, and we got pretty darn real in today’s chat. We hope this resonates with you and we hope it instills any type of shift or change that you might be needing right now so you can have a different/great 6 months more months of 2024! Cheers to rolling into 2025 more intentional!

We experienced some technical difficulties to say the least during the recording of Episode 76, so we were very down to business when it came to oversharing and the cutting room floor. This is one offer shortest Bloops….that just means the best stuff was kept in the main chat, so you’ll have to listen in! Episode 76 is our 6 month check in of 2024! How wild is that?!?! We hope you get curious and we hope you smile today :)
