Good Instincts

This week Shira is joined by Pia Baroncini, internet icon and host of Everything is the Best. 

What we love about Pia is how generous she is in sharing her life’s experiences. From her self-care journey, her favorite supplements (tune in for ALL the recommendations), her experience in navigating PCOS, and Weight Watchers.

Despite Pia's confident demeanor, she opens up about how criticism affects her and her desire for a deeper connection with her audience. Her vulnerability on social media has built a sense of community, where followers feel like family. We hope you love hearing this super candid convo with the one and only Pia.

However, for those who enjoy such products in moderation, maybe it’s not a dealbreaker! What do you think? Do you pause when you see a product with “natural flavors” or is it full steam ahead for a beloved snack or beverage? DM Shira on Instagram  or tell us your thoughts via an Apple Podcast review.
