DeDe is here to talk about one of her goals this year, becoming friends with technology. Being a mom to four kids with access to tablets and cell phones, she is on a quest to stay optimistic but most of all, prepared. She shares some great research that is helping her find a happy medium in this love/hate relationship with technology, while Jamie gives her own opinion on the topic.

DeDe is also feeling all kinds of emotions after attending her 20 year high school reunion and the former Homecoming Queen is spilling all the details to Jamie, since she just so happened to not be in attendance. Its another whirlwind episode for you, friends. If you like what you hear, go show some love @dedeandjamie on Instagram or 5-star us over on iTunes. And the ladies can always be found at [email protected]. Until then, go shine bright! 

DeDe and Jamie are talking about lots of stuff on today's episode.. resolutions, setting goals, making lists, why DeDe hates a budget, subway performers and last, but certainly not least, Thai massages. They are covering all the bases, friends, and topping it off with some more AMAZING letters from the listeners.   

But more importantly, the ladies are here with a challenge. Set four goals to work towards in the year to come; one physical, one social, one mental and one spiritual. Make them as small or as big as you want, but it's time to make YOU a priority! So, listen in to see what intentions the ladies are setting... it might just surprise you! And if you like what you hear, head on over and drop us some love @dedeandjamie on Instagram or 5-Star us on iTunes. Until then, go shine bright!

And the ladies are so excited to share what they have their sights set on in 2020...Spoiler alert, it's YOU!

DeDe and Jamie are feeling #BLESSED after this wonderful Thanksgiving break, and they are talking all about gratitude. Gratitude turns what we have into enough, and it helps us fall in love with the life we already have. As we venture deeper in to the holiday season, it's time to Bless Up, friends! 

So, listen to this episode, and we challenge you to go on your own personal gratitude scavenger hunt. Blessings and magic are all around, if we just have the eyes to see them. And as always, the ladies love hearing about what you find along the way. 

Jamie & DeDe are continuing the topic of staying healthy and/or being our best selves, and this episode's focus is on mental health. And as luck would have it, the ladies have an Academy award-winning actor on the podcast today! Can you believe it?!

Okay, so full disclosure here, this person isn't technically (or even physically) on the podcast.. but Jamie was absolutely blown away by his powerful message and she is here sharing it with you & DeDe on today's episode. Out of the mind of the incredibly talented, Matthew McConaughey, comes the 13 truths to satisfaction in life. This episode could have been titled "Meet Matthew" but the ladies are saving that one for when he is on the podcast in the actual foreseeable future. #GOALS 

Honestly though, this episode is just what we all need. Mental health is just as important as physical health, friends. So listen in for ways to get to know that real best friend of yours.. also known as, Y-O-U. We love to hear your feedback and see those 5 star reviews on iTunes, so thank you for your support. Also, go give us a follow over @dedeandjamie on Instagram. Have a great week, Warriors. Keep shining! 

With the Holidays in full swing (DeDe's Christmas tree has been up for over a week now), Jamie & DeDe are starting to talk about all the things they are grateful for. And on part one of the series today, the ladies are talking about being grateful for their health. We only get this one body, so let's make sure we show our appreciation by taking care of it.

And healthy is an outfit that looks different on everybody, friends. Jamie admits some of the recent changes she has made in order to be her best self while DeDe shares some amazing stories that have inspired her lately.

There are 7.7 billion people currently on the planet Earth. All of us different and unique in our own way. Jamie & DeDe are on a mission to convert every one of those 7.7 billion into peacemakers. And it all starts here, on today's episode.     

The ladies are striving to put the phones down and start looking forward at the faces in front of them. Make eye contact, shoot the breeze with the person next to you in line, smile more, and bicker about our differences less. Life is about connection and DeDe and Jamie are sharing the cool research they have found behind all of this. 

So, listen in friends! And our apologies to Dr. Laurie Santos from the Happiness Lab podcast. She actually is a professor at Yale, not Stanford, but both are equally impressive. Until next time, go shine bright! 

Gabe is here to remind all of us that ANYTHING is possible. He may have been born without arms and legs, but he is the true definition of limitless! He is a motivational speaker currently traveling around the country empowering and inspiring everyone he meets, and DeDe & Jamie were lucky enough to be able to get him on the podcast. He may be half their age, but this man is wise beyond his years. And Gabe's message is honestly so unbelievably beautiful. The ladies will never be the same!

So, listen in friends! There is no doubt that Gabe will dance his way into your heart and motivate you to keep going on those impossible days. And if all else fails, stock up on some marshmallows! We hope you enjoy this episode, and if you did, please share it with a friend. And those 5 star reviews are always appreciated as well. Until next time, go shine bright and climb those mountains, Warriors!  

Friends, the days are long and the years are short. On today's episode, DeDe and Jamie are on the desperate search to find that balance in their lives!

Which lately, seems to be any day that ends in "Y', right?!

DeDe & Jamie always dreamed of having Johnny on the podcast, and they can't believe the moment is finally here. Today you meet a true Warrior, friends!

It has been said that you never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice, and our guest today is a testament to that. Johnny is not only a hero who fought for our country, but he is a human being with an incredibly powerful lesson on forgiveness. A lesson about not letting the tragedies of our past shape our future, and the beauty that awaits when you learn to soften your heart. 

You might want to keep the Kleenex nearby for this one, friends. This episode is filled to the brim with love and gratefulness, and some good laughs as well. So listen in, and make sure to drop a 5 star review if you love Johnny as much as we do!
