When we stumbled across the book Mastering Your Mean Girl, we weren't sure what to expect, but we've been blown away by how much Melissa Ambrosini's tips have already helped us be more mindful in our daily actions. Since we've experienced such a change in such a short amount of time, we wanted to make sure we shared our take-aways with you. 

If you're noticing that you feel anxious or overwhelmed easily, chances are you're living your life with FEAR. We're giving you some tips to change your mindset and lead with LOVE instead. It might sound silly, but once you apply these tips, we can guarantee you're going to feel more calm and in control over time. 

This episode is just a quick glimpse into the book. If you can relate to what we're sharing here, you definitely need to read it in it's entirety! You can get the book, Mastering Your Mean Girl HERE!

Our favorite part of our job is connecting with other inspiring women through social media, and when we met Melanie Faulkner, we knew we had to introduce her to you, too! 

In this episode, you'll hear her full story...how she battled chronic pain during her entire childhood until she was finally diagnosed with acute pancreatitis in her college years.  She is a survivor of an extremely rare procedure where they removed parts of her stomach, intestines, and pancreas, and reinserted her eyelet cells into her liver... miraculously, she has made a full recovery and is now using her story to help educate others about health, wellness, nutrition, and mindset. 

She's launching a website September 1st where she'll discuss pain management, living with disease, and overall health and wellness. Be sure to check it out here!

Life is full of many ups and downs, and when we're striving to accomplish a goal we tend to get stuck in the downs and think it's impossible to get back UP! The secret to getting back on top is to not lose your momentum! Quitting should never be an option if the goal you are working toward is important to you.

Let us ask you this...Do you find yourself working toward a goal and struggling to:

#1 gain momentum and 

#2 keep it going? 

If you answer yes, then you have to tune in this episode! We talk you through our methods of how we manage the FUNKS of life and how we stay on course with our goals. 

Let's be real: We know you've seen hashtags or posts on your social media about living a #balanced life...and we think that's BS.  In this episode, you're going to learn why we actually think it's healthier to be UNBALANCED during different times and seasons of your life. Instead of trying to keep everything even, you need to get real with yourself about what you want to really go for, then you need to prioritize and make it happen. We're giving you some action steps to do just that, and we can't wait to hear about how you're going ALL IN!

Do you have a hard time trying to "balance" your fitness and nutrition with your social life? That's a question we hear pretty often, so we figured since it's July 5th and you're most likely hungover and still dreaming of beer and fireworks, we'd talk about how we manage to stay fit WHILE being social. We used to beat ourselves up mentally when we'd let loose, because we didn't have a solid system in place to get back on track. We relied on ibuprofen and McDonalds, which really only made us feel worse. Now that we have it figured out, we decided it was time to share it with you! 

We've had some serious mental struggles around vanity sizing lately...

Picture this: You're actually feeling confident in your own skin, so you decide to go shopping or order an outfit online. BUT when you try it on, your confidence disappears almost immediately because the size you *THINK* should fit you doesn't even come close. We're sure you know that feeling, because we're dealing with it all the time too. 

We share our thoughts on that during this episode, then we go off on a pretty awesome tangent about being healthy in general vs. worrying about the size of your pants. 

In this episode, we're sharing all the deets about our 100 Day Fitness Challenge! We are PUMPED to do this program for ourselves, but we're also inviting you to do it with us. 100 straight days may seem like a tad much, but we promise you'll be just as excited as we are after you listen to this episode.

Being vulnerable can be a really tough thing to do, but sometimes can lead to the greatest personal growth. Putting your fears on the line and allowing yourself to be vulnerable can open up a whole different side of you that you didn't realize was there. Keeping a positive mindset about the areas of your life you'd like to focus on can lead to greatness. Stop letting the opinions of others control the success you have in life. Be vulnerable, put fear aside, and step into the real you. 

We're so excited to share these thoughts and more with our special guest, Kiera Walls.
