Recently, there has been a barrage of backlash against the body positive movement throughout the media. Many people attack it saying that the movement promotes obesity and is contributing to the increasing percentage of Americans who are overweight. But what these people don't realize is that, even if their assumptions were true, this trend wouldn't be at the fault of the body positivity movement, as it is a promotion of self confidence for ALL bodies, and not a critique of the health and fitness levels in our society. Join me on today's episode as we deep dive into more myths surrounding the body positive movement and why it is a term we can harness not as an excuse, but as a battle cry.

A year ago, I recorded an episode titled, "Asking a College Boy Questions College Girls are Too Scared to Ask," and you guys love it! So I thought that this week we'd flip the script and Maddy and I would answer questions SUBMITTED by college boys about all the ways in which they are confused by their female counterparts. We cover everything from first dates to partying on the weekends and all the hard stuff in between. To anyone dating or interested in a female, this one is for you!

As a self taught brand owner and content creator, there have been many opportunities and experiences that have taught me a great deal about how to grow my business from the start of my journey until now, but none as great as the time I spent working as an intern for Delight Ministries. Listen in to hear about the many lessons the staff at Delight taught me specifically about social media marketing as well as brand management as a whole. My hope is that these lessons help you elevate your own personal business ventures and give you the confidence to step out of your comfort zone to pursue that job or internship you've always been dreaming about!

I've been dancing since I was only one year old, but in the last 19 years, this art form has taught me more than just how to look graceful while standing on my tippy-toes. Dancing showed me how valuable my body is and how necessary it is to provide myself with love and give myself space to learn and grow instead of instantly tearing myself down every time I make a mistake. Join me as we discuss the lessons I had to learn the hard way growing up on the stage, and let my stories be a catalyst for your own moment of self-love today and everyday moving forward.
