  • 17. Debt, Budgeting & Money- All the Scary Topics We Like to Avoid by Janelle Lynnae

    Frankie & I are Aggressively Paying Off Our Debt...

    So I wanted to share our journey with you- from start to finish. 

    I know talking about money (or the lack there of) is far from sexy or popular, but I wish people talked about it more. And even though I’m not a financial guru, I will vulnerably share with you where we are at when it comes to budgeting, debt, and our new mindset around money.

    Today I will answer these questions to the best of my ability:

    • Why should you want to be debt-free?
    • What is gazelle intensity?
    • How much debt does the average American have?
    • What about student loans?
    • Why save for your future while you’re young?
    • How important is your FICO score?
    • How can I become a millionaire?
    • This episode is packed with fun & interesting facts Frankie & I have learned in the last 2 weeks since starting our Financial Peace journey. 

      Please feel free to ask questions or ask for support. I know this is a scary topic and I want to help you process this instead of feeling shame around it.

      • 15. Kill The Diet Culture & Learn How to Lose Weight the Healthy Way with Will Armijo & Briana Owen

        How can you #killthediet culture FOR GOOD??

        Unfortunately, no one is actually being educated on what food does to the body from a health perspective.

        Instead of following the strict rules of a diet, 2020 is your year to learn how to have a healthy relationship with food, understand your inflammation levels, and manage the toxicity levels in your body.

        • Yo-yo Dieting 
        • Anti inflammatory foods
        • Clean 15 List 
        • Dirty Dozen List 
        • Gut Health
        • Branch Basics Cleaning Supplies
        • What are macros?
        • What does it mean to intuitive eat?
        • Will Armijo shares his story:

          "I grew up as an only child with 2 working parents and ate a lot of McDonalds.."

          "I was a baseball player but struggled with my weight. I wanted to be fit like the people I saw in the magazine, so I started with the Atkins diet in secret."

          "I became obsessed with nutrition, I wanted to have the lowest body fat ever & ripped muscles, so I started doing body building in my early 20’s."

          "With body building, there was a lot of vanity & ego involved. I thought that being a body builder would make me healthy, but a lot of these body builders didn’t actually care about their internal health. Through the process I learned it's not just about looking good but also feeling good."

          Briana Owen shares her story:

          "I had breast implants - I thought if I look a certain way then I’ll love myself. But learned that internal health matters more."

          "I was very sick with Chronic Fatigue, hypothyroidism, and all the doctors had different diagnoses… turns out my breast implants caused an autoimmune disease."

                • 9. Challenge the Status Quo & Break Free from Validation with Zach Smith

                  Mindset Coach Zach Smith shares his story about getting a rare condition called alopecia at the age of 7 and how he most of his life seeking validation from others, desperately wanting to fit in. 

                  As a child he was bullied & teased for having no hair, and became suicidal at a very young age.

                  As he grew up, he began to think the way most of us have thought before, "I'll be the best at everything. I'll be perfect. I'll out perform everyone. And when I have the fancy car & the big house, then I’ll be happy".

                  About a year ago, Zach realized he wasn't fulfilled with his fancy job. He began to question the status quo & his social conditioning.

                  On his journey, he learned how to break free from validation from others, found his why for living life, and began rooting his worthiness in something much deeper than perfection & worldly success. 

                  He challenges you to ask the question: "What are you pretending not to know?"

                  Have the courage to face your life. You can choose a life that lights you up, not just a life of surviving.

                  Friends, this is a must listen episode!
