Does anyone else feel like they are trapped in the apocalypse and can't escape? We are all trying to survive this crazy season, and many of us are wondering — will my parenting survive?

Today I sat down with my friend Melanie Dale and we discussed our love for apocalyptic fiction (and dislike for the actual apocalypse). We share a lot of fun resources to read, Melanie encouraged us to find GRACE.

Why is it so stinking hard to just love ourselves and have a healthy body image? As women, we pick ourselves a part and fight the battle with the mirror every day. But can we actually have a healthy body image? We think so! I sat down with my friend Brittany Estes to discuss this challenging topic. We have both struggled with body image after finding ourselves at a weight we weren’t happy with and talked about the challenge of learning to love ourselves through that.

It’s not much of a surprise, any shows we talk about mental health are some of our most popular shows -- it just goes to show how much women are struggling with mental health, and maybe unsure how to have these discussions or possibly hiding their struggles. We want to encourage you with this discussion and if you’re struggling with mental health, you are not alone! Join us today as we answer the question “is anxiety a choice?”

Today we are tackling the super popular topic of “self-care”. What is it? Why do we need it? How does it differ from soul care? We toss around manis, pedis, and yoga and call it “self-care... but that’s not necessarily the case. According to the definition, self-care is any activity that we do deliberately in order to take care of our mental, emotional, and physical health.

Join us as we dig deeper into this topic and how we can truly find a place of renewal for our minds and bodies!
