It's now been 2 months since moving to the UK, and it's affected our relationship in a few ways. Today we're sharing how the move has brought out some insecurities, a new dynamic between us, and changes to our lifestyle.

• THIS: https://this.co/

Ah, the dreaded job hunt. It brings out all our worst insecurities and anxiety.

I pretty much began my job hunting process from the moment we knew that we'd be moving to the UK, and it hasn't been easy.

Today, we're discussing how my job hunt is going, switching careers toward digital marketing, and what I'm doing now to make money. And, Joseph discusses how he's settling into his new job and the challenges he's had to face.

In the midst of everything that's happening in the U.S., we decided to have a bit more of a lighthearted episode to bring a bit of levity to a very heavy week.

We're testing Joseph's knowledge of Britishisms and slang words not commonly used in the States or elsewhere.

We also touch on why I've been moody these days, the case for not unfollowing people on social media, and our favorite new British snack!

2021 is off to a great start, as the UK is in yet another lockdown! Woo!

This week we're talking about a bit of a heavy topic-- orthorexia and how it relates to the online fitness community. I talk a bit about my own struggles with disordered eating, and how to know when your habits have gone from regular healthy eating to disordered eating.

We also talk about the vegan label and why vegans are so strick about what they do and do not eat.
