254: Michael & Lauryn Bosstick on Business, Lifestyle, and Routines

Today’s episode is a little different than normal as I’m here with Lauryn and Michael of The Skinny Confidential to talk business, entrepreneurship and navigating the dynamic of working together as a couple. Lauryn Evarts is a well-known lifestyle and beauty blogger at The Skinny Confidential and her husband Michael Bosstick is a serial entrepreneur and founder of the podcast network Dear Media. I met them in Finland with Four Sigmatic and wanted to have them on to talk business since I get a surprising amount of questions about that side of things and rarely talk about it. They also interviewed me on their podcast (see resources below) where I share about my own business strategies and some parts of my journey you may not have heard before. As I said, I know this is a departure from our normal health topics, but if you’re interested in the business side at all, I think you’ll enjoy this episode.Episode Highlights with the Skinny ConfidentialA recap of all of our lessons from FinlandWhat we all thought of the sauna/cold plunge situation thereThe benefit of pushing out of your comfort zone regularlyWhat our gratitude alarm is and why it started after FinlandHow The Skinny Confidential started and grew to a massive podcast and platformThe ways Lauryn and Michael navigate working together as a coupleHow they’ve grown multiple businessesLessons learned from real estate (and real estate failures)How they met when they were 12 and how long it took for them to eventually start datingThe powerful benefit of practice that they use in many aspects of lifeHow to handle the negative aspects of social media we all encounterWays to create community in daily lifeLauryn’s quote (that I’ve adopted): “What you think about me is none of my business”All of our morning routinesResources We MentionThe Skinny Confidential blogSkinny Confidential: Him and Her PodcastFour Sigmatic (use code WELLNESSMAMA to save 15%)Hydroflask water bottleSilk pillowcaseDry brush100% Copper Tongue ScraperBooks We Recommend
