Love Through It

Twinsies! It’s an episode of synchronicities starting with Lianna and Claire unknowingly wearing the same periwinkle blue. This week’s chat covers the lie that is Lianna’s height, the ups and downs of Claire living in Los Angeles so far, and the prescribed dosages of comedy and 1-3 minutes of daily Joy. Lianna also walks you through an exercise to visualize the life you want to live and helps find a moment or memory that immediately fills you with love. It’s a reminder that we become what we practice.

Welcome back! Their planned 1-month break turned into a mere 19 months, but no one is surprised. Especially the hosts, Lianna Nielsen & Claire Burns. Life sometimes needs you to slow down in order to hear your voice, or as in Lianna’s case, shed life as she knew it. Join them on their first episode back, where they dive into the magic and mystery that they’ve experienced since they last recorded.

Lianna and Claire do their best not to be long-winded with a "minisode" where they discuss how difficult it is to sail the boat when you're still building it, learning the art of non-doing doing, counting down to the big move to LA, and then they dive into Claire's favorite topic: TV (specifically Palm Royale and Sunny)

In part 2, Lianna & Claire dive deeper into the digital detox, Gene Keys, falling into the void, and coming from a place of curiosity, not judgment.

Season 2 is so big they had to break it down in 2 parts. In Part 1, Lianna & Claire discuss the question: do you want to age or evolve? Lianna shares about her digital detox in the perfect horror movie setting. Claire talks about how she's no longer living a lie. They both agree that they can no longer force themselves to do anything they don't want to do. But Claire is very excited about writing a comedy/horror movie based on Lianna's digital detox with Chris, the robot lawnmower.

It's the Season 1 finale! And what a 15 months it's been. Lianna and Claire catch up on the first season of Love Through It and reflect on how much they've both grown since the first episode. Lianna moved to Portugal, refocused her business, and had a full consciousness shift. Claire found herself through love and loss and listening to her body despite her lack of sleep. Looking ahead to season 2, Lianna will bring more conversations with like-minded colleagues and friends about growth, science, knowing, and personal evolution.

After taking one of Catie Miller's barre classes in London, Lianna knew she wanted to share what she had experienced with her audience. Catie and Lianna talk about how, as an entrepreneur, she brought a newer exercise to the skeptical UK, how habit-building is the key to finding your rhythm, and how posture is so much more than sitting up straight.

Lianna has been reading nutrition and diet books for 23 years and Dr Federica Amati's most recent book, Every Body Should Know This, is one of her favorites. Lianna was so excited to chat with Dr Fede about how her childhood in Italy formed her relationship with food, the importance of our first 1,000 days (conception through 2nd birthday) including both the paternal and maternal nutrition, how perimenopause/menopause is a full physiological and metabolic change in our bodies, and how beneficial the Mediterranean diet is to 90% of people. Especially extra virgin olive oil (one of Lianna's favorites).
