This week we cover a bit about a wide range of body related topics.  Kristen shares a bit about the decisions and medical advocacy she has faced with after the 9 years since learning she has the BRCA1 gene.  Maddi talks about how she went through her second pregnancy on her own terms. And we both debate how long we should go without showering, haha!   We would love to hear how your self-care experiments are going, leave us a comment or send us a DM on instagram @howtobemeagain

In this week's episode we talk about how the first week of their How to be Active experiment has gone very differently than expected.  Kristen struggles with having to be less active than she was hoping for, and Maddi is surprised at how she's been more active than anticipated.  Join us for a good discussion about how being active looks a lot different than we thought it would.  As always, we would love to hear from you on our Instagram @howtobemeagain

It's our first episode of our new experiment! In this episode we talk about How to be Active and why it's important to ACTIVATE in our lives.  We also go off on about a million tangents, but somehow they all come back to self-care.  Also, someone please make a prototype of the Maddi doll with her tall ship!  Follow us on instagram @howtobemeagain

Maddi is back! In this episode we wrap up our emotional experiment with a lot of discussion about why we need to learn how to be "good enough".  Maddi shares the many emotional revelations she's had in the past few weeks. We also announce the new experiment for the next 4 weeks at the end of the episode.  

Kristen is on her own for this mini episode where she wraps up a few weeks of figuring out how to be emotional.  

In the episode we talk about how our first 2 weeks of learning How to be Emotional went.  We talk about all the emotions and how we're going to deal with them going forward. Follow along and let us know how your emotional and self-care journey is going on instagram at @howtobemeagain

It's official, we're finally starting our second experiment!  For the next month we will doing a deep dive into the world of emotions in order to better understand how to take care of ourselves.  Are you a highly sensitive person like Kristen?  Or are you a self-professed "cold fish" like Maddi?  Let us know by sending us a DM on Instagram @howtobemeagain

It's our final episode of our How To Be Intentional experiment!  In this episode we talk about the things that surprised us about being intentional and how we can make it a part of our every day lives.  Stick around to the end of the episode where we announce next month's experiment!  We would love to hear how your intentional journey went, DM us on instagram @howtobemeagain or on tiktok @how.tobeme.again  

On this week's episode Kristen and Maddi admit that the struggle is real.  Maddi confesses her less than full commitment to the experiment and Kristen makes fun of her for it.  They also plan a group retreat on a tall ship.  While they might not be great at being intentional, they are great at coming up with future travel plans.  

We had some technical podcasting problems, but we're finally back!  In this episode we talk about how the first part of our How To Be Intentional experiment is going.  We also come up with a plan for what we will tackle in the next week to go even deeper into our intentionality.  If you're following along on your own self care journey let us know on instagram @howtobemeagain.
