This episode begins with body image, diet culture and the value we place on ourselves with the number on the scale. In this episode we talk about reconstructing definitions that have been defined for us or those that we are reconsidering as we journey through our forties. We explore the pathway to self compassion through the sliding scale we discovered in acceptance. We tackle body image, diet culture and the value we place on ourselves with the number on the scale. We toy with the concept of our bodies recomposing and eliminating the mind-fuckery of identity and perception. We find empowerment in understanding who we are and what this all means for us and what feels real as we move forward towards what's attainable and realistic.

In this episode we begin by discussing the manipulation of our hair, the perceptions we carry and the identity we create. As the discussion continues we discover it's not just so much more than hair. It's a lesson, I think, for how you can be more free and accepting and become closer to what is your higher self. We deep dive into manipulation and control versus freedom and liberation. Can you find contentment and a balance between manipulation and control? And is the answer in how it makes you feel or the perception of others? The balance is in the intention we have. With the goal of living in a way where you are connected to the intention of the act that you're doing and that intention connects you to your highest self.

In this episode we talk about an exercise Shakira has in her morning routine that identifies her mood and how she's feeling. Rather than this feeling being about what you think it "should" be, how can we articulate our feelings and just allow them to be as they are? As we define our feelings we talk about taking action from a space of love and confidence rather than fear and the "shoulds" that don't belong to you. We hope you enjoy this exercise and we invite you to explore your feelings.

In this episode we pivot from the regularly scheduled topic as Kira dives deep into the fringe of metal music and invites us into the exploration of the role music has played in our lives. We tap into the bridge of possibilities music has provided each of us through connection to self, community and something bigger than ourselves. We explore the inner connection and how music connects us to other things, to feelings and movement. Though our journeys are very different we found ourselves and our voices through the beauty of music.

We are in the hot seat today my friends. It started with a dream, weaved through some loneliness, got a bit distracted with some ski goggles and ended with feeling refreshed and NEW. As with all our conversations, it is a journey through our souls connected with love and laughter. Enjoy my friends

In this episode we discuss the reasons why we decided, or Shakira was forced, to create this podcast. The dynamics between us as friends is pure magic and I thought we needed to share this with others and invite you into our friendship. More often than not, we walk away from our conversations, feeling something deeper within ourselves that we didn't prior to our call. Our intention is for you to walk away feeling the same. Be open to explore intimacy and vulnerability, the one thing you're afraid of absolutely creates so much more space for love.
