We are back! So sorry that we left you hanging last week, Chase had a family emergency pop up and needed to spend several days with his family in TX. In this week's episode, we give some fun life updates as well as deliver what will probably be a controversial take on Rihanna's 2023 Super Bowl half-time performance as well as Hollywood news regarding Alec Baldwin and one of the children depicted in the tremendous rescue film Thirteen Lives.

This one just might hit ya in the feels, fair warning! We sat down to unpack something that has been an item of great focus, work, and love - Chase's healing journey from the traumatic death of his father at age 19. Recorded shortly after the 18-year memorial of his passing, Chase is now finally able to talk freely and openly about what that loss did to him mentally, emotionally, spiritually and how it has impacted our relationship and our marriage over the years.

Episode resources:

• Chase's PTSD healing has been greatly alleviated by seeking professional mental health help and using such resources as ketamine assisted psychotherapy from Field Trip Health, Nue Life, and WonderMed.

Ooh la la! We are so excited to share our recent vacation to Paris during Christmas and New Year's 2022. Traveling from LA to France proved to be quite the trek but through some key preparation (shoutout FlyKitt) we landed and hit the ground running. In this episode, we drop some of our favorite cafes and restaurants and must-see spots in one of our favorite cities in the world as well as meaningful experiences the City of Love gave us and significant takeaways we brought back home to the US (and our lives).

Episode resources:

• FlyKitt helped us eliminate jet lag
• Chase avoided getting hangry with Paleovalley grass fed beef sticks and Timeline Nutrition MitoPure protein travel packs
• Bar Hemingway at The Ritz Paris
• Le Speakeasy for New Year's Eve shenanigans
• Girafe, super classy restaurant with a great view of the Eiffel Tower
• Cafe de Flore, one of the oldest cafes in Paris and the best option soup we had
• Christmas markets
• Saint-Germain, our favorite district 
• Shakespeare and Company bookstore
• Montmartre village
• Seine River dinner boat tour

Well, it's January 2023 and what is probably on all of our minds? New Year's resolutions! Love 'em or hate 'em, now is the time of year where most of us are probably setting goals for the year ahead of us. We wanted to share some of our intentions for 2023 with you all and invite you along our journey this year of (hopefully) becoming better versions of ourselves individually as well as strengthening our relationship.

Welcome to our first official episode! To get us started, we thought it would help set the stage for the rest of the show if we peeled back the curtain and shared who we are as individuals. We open up about our personalities and interests (the fun stuff), what we do in the world professionally (the adulting stuff), how our love story began (the romantic stuff), and everything else in between.
