Hey Freshies, We spun the Fresh or Faded wheel of trends and found an interesting tidbit that we just had to share since it aligned with our last few videos around sustainable living. What we uncovered was that those lush, extravagant weddings of the past are starting to be on the decline while sustainable, low key weddings seem to be taking over. Is this another trend driven from the restrictions on gatherings from COVID or is there more to it?

Tune in to find out more about the growing trends of weddings today.

We’ll also share a social media ad Jana got sucked into clicking and buying. Here’s a hint, it’ll help you deck your halls!

Here are the questions we asked during todays episode:

Have you seen mean girls? What’s your favorite one liner from the movie?

What kind of florals did you have at your wedding? or are you planning for your future wedding?

Hey Freshies, maintaining healthy habits to support a healthier lifestyle as a mom can be difficult if not impossible. We tend to put ourselves last since we are often THE caretakers. However, if we don’t prioritize things to help us feel and live better how can we care for others? If there is something to be learned from flying the friendly skies it is you need to put your mask on first before you can help others.

Today we’ll share a few helpful tips and tricks to developing healthy habits that can hopefully get you going towards your own definition of a healthier lifestyle.

Comment below if you have any tips, tricks or habits you would like to share.

Hey Freshies, Sustainable living seems to be a growing trend, but what exactly is it and how far would you go to achieve it?

Tune in to hear why it could be the family activity you didn’t know you needed.

Hey Freshies, With access to more information and support than ever before through online groups and the sage-like Google search, Millennial Moms are more confident and educated (and outspoken) than ever before, challenging many existing parental beliefs. So why are they still relying on their boomer parents for financial and housing support? Do they need to put on their big girl pants and move out or milk it as long as possible? What do you think?

M.E.O Janelle shares her story of how Avenue52 came alive after her son was born. She started making personalized onesies for the 52 weeks of the year, and has since expanded to over 230 designs.

A not so new beauty secret, using rice water for growth and thickness of hair. A technique that’s been used for centuries, most commonly seen in Japanese cultures where women used to have floor length hair. Kim K and Cardi B are two people today that have positive things to say about it, but is there any actual science based research to back it?

Chrissy Teigen’s sobriety, the cowboy boot trend and Simone Biles response to trolls are all part of what’s trending this week for That’s Fresh:

The title speaks for itself, don’t ya think?

Sharing some tips on how to help kids (and adults) do their own thing. Because the question remains, do you think imitation is a form of flattery?

We’re reviewing and sharing our favorite things about bento & bentgo lunchboxes.

We also tried some water experiments with the kids. Be sure to checkout out their reactions and what we thought of these ideas from pinterest.  (https://pin.it/5v9LeNZ)

Hey Freshies,

Dinner fails, we’ve all been there, so I think it’s safe to say we can relate when Alycia tells all on her pizza crust disaster lol.

Then we’re getting right into our topic of the day, gentle parenting. Have you heard of it? Do you know what it is? We did some research to educate ourselves about this growing trend in parenting.

No punishments, no boundaries, and no rules. Sound like a free for all? Yea it does to us too. Tune in to hear more and watch live reactions to tiktok videos showcasing gentle parenting in action. 

We got so invested in the conversation we’ll only have time to end the show with the weekend wiggles. Thanks for having coffee with us today. If you enjoyed our show, please consider liking, comment sharing, & subscribing…..all the things. We appreciate you joining us and look forward to seeing you Monday. 

See ya Freshies
