On this episode DeDe and Chelsea are thrilled to introduce their listeners to the amazing Adriene.  This mother of 4 shares with the ladies her journey from homeschooling her children in her converted red barn schoolhouse to sharing her talents and heart with other children in the community.  From the lessons and work ethic she learned from her immigrant grandparents to the passion Adriene has for igniting children’s imaginations … you will fall in love with her big heart as she shares about her life.

Like so many of us, Adriene had to pivot during the pandemic with her small business and she chats with the ladies about the beauty that came from that pivot (for her family AND her business).  

You also won’t want to miss Adriene describing the process and experience she had writing (and publishing) an illustrated children’s book with her four children!  (“The Magic Maple Tree” )

Join DeDe and Chelsea for another new episode!  Chelsea shares what she learned about focusing on the “buds” (and not just the “roses” and “thorns” in our lives), and how much hope those potential buds are bringing her as she looks ahead to 2022.

Self-love is something the ladies believe strongly in, and DeDe explains why, what type of self-love they are referring to, and (most importantly) how to FIND that self-love.

As always, the ladies LOVE feedback from their tribe … feel free to reach out to them and share your insights into “nurturing the buds” and “self love!”

Episode Notes:

After their winter “break” DeDe and Chelsea are back on the mics with a new episode. The ladies have missed their tribe, and couldn’t wait to get this 2022 party started!

DeDe & Chelsea begin the episode by each sharing a “beauty” that described 2021 … what they learned and discovered during another crazy year. 

After that time of reflection the ladies share how they are looking ahead to ’22, and what goals they are reaching for.

DeDe and Chelsea hope everyone had an AMAZING Thanksgiving, and wanted to let the “tribe” know how grateful they are for their incredible support and loyal listening!!

On this new episode DeDe & Chelsea both base their “beauties” on the upcoming holiday season!  Chelsea shares a family tradition that helps her stay on top of the busy month, and offers other suggestions to “Keep Calm and Merry On.”  

Christmas time is DeDe’s FAVORITE season - so you will definitely find her “Dancing in December!”  DeDe focuses this episode on the importance of gratitude, and how it can bring so much joy to the season when we open our eyes to the beauty around us, and when we look outside of ourselves.

DeDe & Chelsea could not be more thrilled to be back with the “tribe” this week on a brand new episode!  

DeDe’s “beauty” focuses on real-life connection, and asks us all “what kind of ‘influencer’ are you?”  And what are you letting influence you?  DeDe reflects back on the last few weeks and gives wonderful examples of how she was “influenced” by real experiences and real people.  

Chelsea shares what she’s learned recently about “emotional intelligence” and about a few characteristics found in emotionally intelligent people.  She breaks down one characteristic in particular … the ability to fail (or FALL!) and try again.

DeDe & Chelsea are so excited to be back with their tribe and sharing their latest “beauties” on this new episode! 

Since challenging us all to “check our temperature” and where we are at DeDe has been doing some re-alining and asking herself who she is when the world isn’t watching.  On this episode she shares some “mini” beauties and questions that have helped her with “Faithing It Til’ She Makes It.”

November is a great time to discuss gratitude, and Chelsea shares some new thoughts on how to make “Gratitude Grow” like a weed and spread.  She challenges the tribe to find things to be grateful for in places you don’t normally look, and shares the amazing power that comes from mindfully practicing gratitude.

Are you ready for some deep-thinking?!?! :) 

DeDe and Chelsea are coming at you with some self-reflecting questions in this week’s new episode.  

After her family’s recent vacation, Chelsea couldn’t stop thinking about the beauty and inspiration she found at Walden Pond in Concord, MA.  In this episode she talks about the beauty of quiet, and finding a place (or a time!) to recharge, reflect and be inspired.

DeDe then leads a conversation on happiness, and how to ask yourself what your baseline happiness “temperature” is.  When life gets hard, what can we do to get that baseline back up to the perfect temperature?  

Come listen in, and feel free to share this episode with friends!
