Hey Friends!

This episode timed itself beautifully! Helene was just in Greece on some much needed R&R with her husband and Christina was with her family in London and Paris on some much needed R&R with her family! 

Does travel mean relaxation to you? Or is it quiet time? Or a good book with a big blanket? Do you allow yourself R&R? In this episode, we dig deep in discussing what is truly relaxing, what prevents us from doing it and why it is so vital. Teaser- did you know that rest actually makes you more productive?! Truth, friends.

Join us on this episode as we discuss our own relatable barriers to relaxation, how those who love us challenged us to relax this summer, and how we can each improve in this area. We discuss how women are notorious for feeling as though they need to “earn” rest, try to overdo it when they plan it and often fail in this realm. 

This episode is filled with mutual grace and accountability for each of us to do better at something that is so integral in being productive and successful humans! So tap the link below that suits you, download and rest while you listen to this powerful episode!

With Love,

Hey Friends!

Helene & Christina here. Are you a caregiver to others? Maybe you are in the depths of parenting or caring for a relative, a friend, a spouse? Maybe you find yourself drawn to people who need TLC.  Then this episode is for you!

As a caregiver- burnout is REAL.  It is exhausting work to care for someone else, whether it be someone who is healthy or someone who is ill.  Oftentimes, caregivers put themselves on hold- ignore their needs, desires, and boy can it catch up to you. Do you find yourself sick, overwhelmed, having a short fuse or just plain exhausted?! Well then, buckle up and put on those headphones, because you NEED this one!

Helene shares about when she was cared for as well as caring for her mom most of her child. Christina opens up about caring for her father, as well as previously caring for her mother.  We share about the struggles- yes, we are human too friends- and the successful moments in caring for yourself when the burdens feel big.  

Give yourself a break- listen to this episode- realize what a gift you are as a caregiver and then find ways (small or big) to care for you.  Let this episode be your guide and motivation so that you can keep doing what you do best- loving others!

With Love

Hey Friends!

This episode can be hard and good. We are challenging you to dig deep into yourself to figure out how you accept or don’t accept love.  We talk about the foundation of attachment with our families growing up as to how you were taught that you were loved.  For many, they grew up with “transactional” love and how that can lead to toxic relationships or an inability to accept love if you are not “producing.”  

We are here- friends- to teach you that you DESERVE genuine love.  We talk about what is true, authentic love and how to move through the awkwardness of it.  There are so many good gifts in this episode in learning what is genuine love, how to work through your stuff that is blocking you from accepting it and then learning how to appreciate in giving and receiving genuine love.  This episode talks about the core of love- trust.  We open up about some raw moments in our own lives where we were stretched to accept love! Helene opening up about a friend who she allowed to love her. Christina talks about how her daughter teaches her this skill in their relationship and her daughters other relationships. We talk about ways to accept love to begin your journey- so hop on because we have got you!

It is truly a beautiful episode that provides you a plan for your own growth and mindset change so that you can do better for yourself and model better for others! 

With Genuine Love-

Hey Friends!

Helene & Christina, here to chat about the gift of health! How often do you take the time to truly notice your body- not in critique or annoyance- rather in appreciation? We are on a mission to teach YOU how to truly celebrate yourself. So how do we do that without taking care of our entire body?! In this episode, we discuss different areas of health- physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. We take you on a journey of how to work through these areas and realize the gift that our bodies give us each day. We also talk about how to thank your body AND listen to it.  

Friends, as women, we are taught to focus on all the “ugly things” of our bodies.  We are here to stop that unhealthy dialect and start treating our bodies as they deserve- smart, telling, caring and more.  This episode is one that we all need, probably more often than we want to admit.  This is a MUST listen to truly be able to celebrate your gift- YOUR life! 

We hope you love it as much as we do! And as always- forward it on to your tribe. Pretty certain we all need a dose of this one! 

With Love

Hey Friends!

Helene & Christina here.  This is an episode that would have been total taboo for our parents. However, we are here to be real and meet you in your messy middle.  If this episode triggers you- head to therapy before listening.  If this is something that you are trying to figure out, as you grow up (like us)- then it is for you.

This episode is all about getting comfortable with your body and your sexuality because it is NORMAL! Join us as we discuss with expert & incredible therapist (and our friend), Dr. Laura Streyffeler about the Gift of Sexuality.  It is time to turn up the volume and get real.  We should all be able to be sexual and enjoy attraction.  Now is the time to figure out what works for you.

Dr. Laura gives us some thought provoking questions to explore with yourself in this jaw dropping episode.  We ask her questions we see in our offices every day and hear amongst our girl friends- what you all want to know but don’t ask.  This one is for each of us, so join us as we chat with Dr. Laura about the real and uncomfortable stuff so that we can learn to love ourselves more each day (and our partner!).

Hey Friends!

This episode is so fun! Ever want to try something new but you are in your head and can’t make yourself do it?! Then this episode is for Y-O-U! We talk about the hard obstacles and fears that keep us from doing things we love or trying something new or thinking outside the box.  

Both Helene & Christina struggle with this one naturally with their perfectionistic personalities. They share some of their hard moments that blocked them from saying YES! and how they overcame it. They also open up about how they have walked through this journey with clients.  

Suffice to say, when you are able to learn to overcome your fears and thoughts and start to say YES! To the life YOU want to live, you will be gifted with joy, fun and some laughter along the way.  

So join us on this episode to let go of a little perfectionism and gain a whole lot of fun sprinkled into you!

Hey Friends!

Can you believe we are on Episode 50?!?!?! It is all because of YOU! So Thank YOU for listening and sharing it with all your tribe! We so appreciate and love you for doing this with us! 

This episode is a hell ya! And it is an evolution.  We are here to talk about Self Validation…not the arrogant, egotistical uncle we all know, rather a confident person who is able to internally dialogue and realize her self worth.  

Join us as we dig deep into how we both evolved into becoming better at self validation- how it has opened doors for us in life, weak moments where we struggled, AND how it can improve your relationships.  

Friends, there are SOOOO many gifts in this episode- from realizing where you struggle with self validation to learning how to improve it.  Christina talks about how her self validation journey began in high school and Helene talks about how she was self validating to ensure she got into the grad school of her choice.  We also touch on how lacking that self validation can lead to unhealthy relationships and when you can improve this skill, you improve relationships all around you.

This is truly an episode for all of us (and the men in your lives too probably).  So grab your bev, a comfy blanket and hang with us as this episode is sure to be a HELL YA!! when you are done!

Love

Hey Friends!

This episode is both a “hell ya” AND an “umph”! Helene & Christina talk about the reality that not every friendship is meant to stay in your life. They dig deep in talking about trusting yourself and realizing when a friendship is not healthy.  

Helene reminds us that we teach people how to treat us.  She reminds us the power of healthy boundaries and expectations in relationships.  Christina gets candid about how letting go of someone in your life can look like, without it adding drama or heartache to your life or the person you are pruning out.

This is an episode that teaches you confidence, your own value, as well as giving you permission to care for yourself.  Whether the friendship is draining, not serving purpose, or does not align with your values- or it is keeping you from growth in your life- Helene & Christina talk about the hard parts of letting this friendship out of your life.  When you are able to work through the sadness of doing so, you morph into gladness and find the good in who you are. 

Join them as we send you the invite to work through the messy middle to evaluate where you are putting your energy and does it align with who you are! This episode will teach you to be more confident and find more joy in life! 

With Love,
