Before we jet set to France, we decided to take a relationship quiz to see how much we really know about each other. In this episode, we discuss whether your romantic partner should be your best friend, keeping the spark alive, and the traditional marriage vow that we’re ditching altogether.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
You don’t necessarily have to have breathless, fiery passion in your relationship 24/7, but you should never let things go cold. Remember to be affectionate with each other often, share your dreams and goals with each other, and prioritize quality time even when life gets stressful.
Successful couples know how to argue and handle conflict respectfully and swiftly. It’s okay to take time to process individually before you come together to discuss, but never sweep things under the rug entirely.
While the old saying goes “til’ death do us part,” marriage should never feel like a death sentence. Your marriage should be an absolute joy to be a part of, and if it’s no longer serving you and your partner, then that’s an honest discussion you should have.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
Being outdoors in the summertime is awesome, but working out in the heat is a whole different ball game. If you run or do any workouts outside, make sure you do so in the early morning hours and stay hydrated.
No matter where you like to work out or what your travel plans are this summer, we can’t recommend our HSM Streaming workouts enough. For about a dollar a day, you get access to a full library of workouts you can do anywhere!
Liz recently learned that because of the altitude and length of time you’re on a transcontinental flight, even one glass of wine can drastically increase an ultra-healthy person’s risk for heart attack or stroke. We’re still having one on our flight, though…

If there’s something we love to do, it’s to challenge the status quo at every chance we get! In this episode, we’re sharing our biggest (and sometimes most painful) lessons we’ve learned by living authentically, our advice for anyone who’s in a difficult season, and an update on our thoughts around marriage.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
It’s almost a guarantee that if you step into the most authentic version of yourself, you will disappoint someone. You are not less brave for being cautious before taking the leap, but commit to taking even the smallest baby steps until you reach your highest self.
At the end of the day, the status quo is completely made up. You get to create your own standards for your life, and when life throws you curveballs that challenge those ideas, embrace them in the way that feels most authentic to you.
Our lives are a masterclass in “the status quo is for losers.” Sometimes when we’ve challenged the status quo and had the courage to step fully into ourselves, it has made people uncomfortable, but we never let that hold us back.

We recently joined forces with Bank of America in Kiawah Island to share our workout with their top performers. Two of the pillars of health we focused on throughout the week were longevity through movement and strength training for optimum wellness. We met some incredibly talented and strong performers and were inspired to share our takeaways with you on the podcast this week. In this episode we share the habits besides exercise and nutrition (though you know we advocate for those!) that contribute to feeling your best at every age.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
There are many ways to achieve longevity, first and foremost of which is movement. Making small, attainable changes will turn into lifelong habits.
When you can, get out of your usual environment and meet new people. Connection is absolutely one of the pillars of health. When we learn about other people’s stories and get inspired by their achievements, it can have a profound impact on how we live.
If you are not doing something you love day in and day out, make a change! Focus on finding work, hobbies, and relationships that make you feel fulfilled. This is an underrated piece of the wellness puzzle!

This Spring at Hilliard Studio Method, we hosted a live Q&A with Dr. Liz Moran on all things hormone health. It was so popular that we knew we had to bring her on the podcast! In this episode, Dr. Moran - an OB/GYN and the owner of Premier Gynecology & Wellness - shares her perspective on how hormones change as we age, the pros and cons of hormone replacement therapy for menopause, breast cancer, and so much more.
A native Charlottean, Dr. Moran graduated from Charlotte Country Day School, pursued her undergraduate studies at Duke University, then went on to medical school at Wake Forest University School of Medicine. Dr. Moran has been honored annually by Charlotte Magazine as a Top Doctor in Charlotte since 2010.

Listen to Ep. 137: Diving Into Hormones
Pinwheel for limiting kids’ tech access
Some key takeaways from this episode include:
Perimenopause often takes place in a busy season of life for many women, so they chalk up symptoms like exhaustion to schedules and kids when they actually might be signs of hormonal changes that can be addressed with your doctor.
There is a link between estrogen and heart health. If you decide to utilize a treatment like hormone replacement therapy, know that there can be some risks, but you need to weigh the pros and cons with your doctor based on all the factors.
Lab work is used to flag diseases, not to look for wellness. So if your labs come back in the “normal” range, continue getting a metabolic panel annually so you and your doctor can track trends within the ranges.

Last Friday, we hosted the annual Bechtler Gala, and it was truly a (viking’s) dream come true! In this episode, we are recapping this fabulous event including our vendors and stunning outfit details, plus Lee’s hormone lab results and the increasing discussion around hormone health. We also share why consistently talking about our love story is so important to us, and the impact it’s had on our listeners.

We talk about our love story a lot, but we continue to share it because we’ve heard from our listeners that it inspires them to be their most authentic selves. Whether that’s in a relationship, in your career, or as an individual, we hope it inspires you to be powerful as well.
If you’re in your 40s or beyond and you haven’t gotten bloodwork done, advocate for yourself and go for it! Don’t chalk up your exhaustion or lack of joy to your age. Fight to learn more about your body and find another way to feel better.

Today we have the most special guests on the podcast yet: Liz’s daughter Clary and her grandson, Cameron! In this episode, Cameron and Clary share their stories of moving to Memphis for treatment at St. Jude Children’s Hospital after Cameron was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor in 2021. Their lives were turned upside down, but they somehow found laughter, sunshine, and love through it all. We are so inspired by Clary’s strength as a warrior mom and Cameron’s resilience as a 7-year-old cancer patient, and we know you will feel uplifted by their story, too.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
We talk about being a fierce advocate for yourself, but it goes without saying to be a fierce advocate for your babies. Clary knew something was wrong and kept going back to the doctors until someone figured out what was going on.
Keeping morale up is everything during a tough season. The Grays had a saying, “Stupid cells, go to hell!,” that was a funny, cheeky rallying cry to keep them motivated and optimistic during this scary time.
It can be hard to know what to say to someone who’s been diagnosed with cancer, but just the act of reaching out is so impactful. Let them know you’re thinking about them, send them some books to read during treatments, or send them dinner for the family so they don’t have to think about it.

If there’s one thing we wholeheartedly believe in, it’s that you need to take care of yourself in every way possible!

Stay on top of all the tests and screenings you need to get. We hear only complaints about mammograms, colonoscopies, and skin cancer screenings, but they are essential for catching problems early and living a long, healthy life.
We will be diving into hormones as a topic more because we feel it’s so important for women to have a resource about perimenopause, menopause, and all things women’s health.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
So much of staying strong and agile is challenging yourself to do more. Challenge yourself to be able to do your age number in push ups and remember you’re a few strong breaths and sips of water away from finishing a workout.
We need to bring back some classic Steel Magnolias-esque sayings like “chaps my ass,” “busier than a one-armed paper hanger,” and “I’m just too colorful for words.”
There are risks for all medical treatments and procedures, but if the benefits of feeling more rejuvenated, healthy, and functional outweigh the cons, it might be worth it!

Sometimes we feel more tender and our emotions are on high alert. It’s important to let yourself feel the feelings, have a good cry if you need to, and don’t try to explain them away.
There’s a lot of information coming at us at all times. This keeps us in fight or flight mode, which then makes us want to numb out, and we create this vicious cycle. Instead, move your body, unplug from your devices, and ground yourself.

When it comes to your life and your beliefs, do you express them boldly or quietly? In this episode, we’re sharing why we’re unapologetically bold in expressing our political beliefs… and why you should be, too. We were also inspired by the acceptance speeches for the Academy Awards this past weekend, so we’re reflecting on what would be in our big acceptance speeches and whether we still have time to be EGOT winners.

When it comes to our “hecklers” in life, it’s crucial to not get defensive. In those moments, you have to move quickly to diffuse the situation, change the subject, and move on. Don’t give the heckler the limelight.
Politics can be divisive, and we lovingly invite everyone who has been quiet about their beliefs to use your power. If you have your facts straight, be loud and unapologetic about your values.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
Having lived through a pre-Roe era in the 70s, it’s very disheartening to see how much women’s rights have been rolled back in the last few years. It’s devastating to see all the hard work of advocates be undone.
It’s okay for us to have different beliefs, but it’s not okay to create legislation based on your personal beliefs. You can be pro life, but that is your choice. All women should have a choice.
Surround yourself with people who are open minded enough to have difficult conversations. We don’t have to only be friends with people who vote like us, but we do need to be able to approach these tough topics with compassion and mutual respect.

Lee recently started going to therapy, and that inspired us to share our experiences with going to therapy. We are huge proponents of talk therapy, and it has been a very beneficial tool for us to grow and reflect in our lives. In this episode, we talk about Liz’s hilarious marriage counseling experience, why finding the right therapist is so important, and how exploring your self-esteem and awareness in therapy impacts all areas of your life.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
There are so many ways to chat with a therapist (video chat, phone call, or in person to name a few), and so many therapists out there. It’s important to find the right fit for you, and keep trying until you find them!
A good therapist can really dig deep with you. Your therapist should listen to you, and then call out some of the habits or blocks that can help you work through whatever you’re struggling with.
We talk about self-esteem and confidence a lot because they truly affect every aspect of your life. Confidence helps you feel brave enough to express your feelings, try something new, and advocate for yourself.

Plus, we’re sharing how we’re giving back every month at HSM and how you can support the causes!

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
Being powerful involves making the best choices possible for the life you want to live. We probably make hundreds of small choices every single day about how to spend our time, what we consume, and who we spend time with.
A big choice we can make is what holds our attention throughout the day. Choosing to focus one one thing instead of multitasking throughout the day eliminates that frazzled, hurried feeling and welcomes calm into your body.
Making a better choice is simple, but not easy! The food industry, digital media, and smart devices are all created to make it harder to make the healthier choice, so start with small choices and work your way up.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
We were invited to host the 2024 Bechtler Museum Gala, and were tasked with making the Bechtler weird again! Our goal is to create an environment where people can let their true selves out and feel completely welcome and accepted for it.
This year’s theme is Fire + Ice as a nod to artist Hildur Ásgeirsdóttir Jónsson, whose exhibit Infinite Space, Sublime Horizons pulls inspiration from Iceland’s beautiful landscapes.
Even though Charlotte is considered a banking city, it is so rich with art centers like the Bechtler, the Harvey B. Gantt Center, the McColl Center, and the Mint Museum. That balance is essential for a vibrant city!

Blog: Year of the Dragon
Some key takeaways from this episode include:
It’s Black History Month, which is such an important part of American history. In order to prevent history from repeating itself, we have to face our history head-on, even if it’s painful.
If you’re looking for inspiration this Valentine’s Day, remember that sometimes the handmade and low key experiences are the most memorable. One of Liz’s favorite Valentine’s Day with Lee was when she made homemade cornbread.
February is the start of the year of the dragon, the perfect month for coziness (AKA hygge!), spending time with your loved ones, and showing love however you can. What’s better than that?

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
If you’re checking a bag at the airport, always pack a change of clothes or two in your carry-on bag in case your luggage gets lost. Air tags are also super handy to keep in your checked luggage in case it gets lost as well… ask us how we know!
Traveling gives you so much knowledge and perspective. It can be such an eye-opening experience to see how similar humans are on the most basic level, no matter where they are in the world.
Liz’s philosophy is that birthdays are truly worth celebrating. Maybe no one will care about your birthday party more than you, but your existence in this world is important and worth celebrating.

Be Powerful: Find Your Strength at Any Age
Listen to Episode 56: What It Was Like to Get an Abortion Before Roe v. Wade
Some key takeaways from this episode include:
One of the biggest gifts you can give to your kids is a life of adventure. We talked about this last week, but forcing your kids to go outside and make their own fun is so valuable for their social skills, problem solving skills, and childhood memories.
There’s a difference between a strong and generous woman and a martyr. You should never let people walk all over you, but if you can demonstrate strength and love in all you do, it can have a powerful impact on your loved ones.
Don’t push down the negative feelings from your most difficult life experiences. Life is too rich and wonderful to avoid even the worst feelings. It’s so worth it to experience all of it.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
Even if resolutions aren’t your jam, use the new year as an opportunity to start fresh, establish some new weekly habits, and get back into a routine that supports your goals.
Consistency is so important, and the best way to stay consistent is to make your habits sustainable. That means you need to address underlying issues holding you back first, and you need to make sure you're tying fun activities and passions into your routines.
We feel so grateful to be able to live our love out loud. It feels like our society is always right on the line of accepting same sex relationships, but we feel grateful that we don’t have to live in fear of expressing ourselves and celebrating our relationship.
