    Send us a text! Would love to hear directly from you!

    Lovingly nicknamed The Graves Disease Dancing Chef, Mina Grace's cooking demos are more than just culinary showcases – they're heartfelt performances interwoven with real experiences that would pull at anyone's  heartstrings, all accompanied by her signature dance moves!

    Mina's journey is an amazing one of resilience and transformation, marked by her battles with Graves disease, relationships and the unwavering pursuit of healing. When traditional medicine fell short, she embraced the healing power of plants, not just revitalizing her health but her entire outlook on life. Mina's story transcends recipes and "ingredient changes" – it's about rebuilding fractured relationships, embracing forgiveness, and discovering the boundless joy that resides within.

    In Mina Grace, you'll find not just a chef, but a woman whose presence lights up every room.

  • Laughter, Lessons, & Ordinary Moments: An Intimate Conversation with Angela Boyd

    Send us a text! Would love to hear directly from you!

    Ever feel like everyone's got their life figured out, except for you? Ever feel lost, sad, overwhelmed, or just plain confused about this whole adulting thing?   Get cozy and join me for a refreshingly honest and open chat with the fabulous Angela Boyd.  Forget the fancy studios and expert interviews; this episode is all about two women sharing their experiences, anxieties, and a few heartwarming laughs.

    Angela – life coach, entrepreneur, fellow mom, and an all-around amazing woman  –  gets real about how she navigated sadness, burnout, and all those "what am I doing?!" moments life throws our way. Forget fancy studios and expert interviews – this episode is all about two women sharing their experiences, anxieties, and a few heartwarming laughs.

    Prepare to be inspired (and maybe a little relieved you're not alone!) as we delve into:

    • Pandemic Ponderings: Turns out, a global crisis can really make you re-evaluate your yoga pant collection and life choices. We explore how Angela used this time for some serious soul-searching.
    • The Ups & Downs of Momhood: From "they grow up so fast" to "please stop drawing on the walls," we chat openly about the ever-changing joys and challenges of motherhood.
    • Saying "No" More Often: Because even superwomen need a break! We discuss the importance of setting boundaries and guarding your sanity, especially when your office is also your living room.
    • The Power of Letting Go: Sometimes the best thing you can do is, well, nothing! We explore the art of letting go of things (or even people!) that don't spark joy anymore.

    This episode is your cozy corner of the internet for a dose of real talk, relatable experiences, and a reminder that you're not alone in this crazy thing called life.

    So, grab your headphones, settle in, and get ready for a conversation that's as inspiring as it is ordinary.

    With much Aloha,

    Olga @YelloBirdie
