The holidays are OVER. And of course, we need to talk about them.

So, this week, Krista and Lindsey discuss the outcomes of their holiday ventures. We’re talking the good, the bad, and the ugly: everything from family, revisiting bad habits, spending Christmas alone, and creating new traditions as a result. 

Did anyone take a cool vaca? Do something by yourself and actually enjoy your own company? Or did y’all visit the old fam' bam and get asked ALL the questions about life and work and relationships? It's okay, we did too.

Krista and Lindsey also bring in a STELLAR caller, Nicole from Boston, who get's real and to the point right away (she get's it). During the call, we get deep and down-to-earth about

• 2016 was a year of change, but 2017 is the year you make shit happen
• doing you & not worrying about what other people think
• surviving & getting out of the "in-between"
• our SOULCYCLE JOURNEYS! #tapitback #findyoursoulbaby
• plus and minuses of moving across the country
• going with your gut & letting your instincts pull you where they will

This week, the girls will help you honor the changes in your life so you can continue to do what you love and love what you do. 

Danielle Cuccio, CEO of yoga brand Cuccio Somatology, blogger behind "The Beauty Blender", and yoga teacher to the stars, joins the ladies this week!  This is an in depth convo that covers it all...like recognizing when you are forcing the wrong path, having the guts to sacrifice and follow what excites you, making your passion your business, making your business a strong brand, dealing with the numbers game, handling social media pressures, and so much more.  

The girls take it back to Danielle's early 20's, where her habits and people she was hanging out with did not align with the vision she had for her life.  They track her path, the ups and down, and the unexpected twists and turns.  In the midst of these life changes, Danielle met her husband on Match.com.  HOW FREAKIN' CUTE.  The girls are fascinated and ask one hundred questions.    

A former aesthetician, Danielle also shares her beauty secrets and favorite products.  OMG PEN AND PAPER THIS SH*T.  Beauty and wellness is her ISH.  Take note!  We also talk vision boarding.  Dreamy.  As always, the girls keep it REAL AF.  They know you will relate to Danielle's dream, drive, and downright realness.
