  • Cody Really IS Funny! From Dance Days to Stand-Up Comedy - with Cody Michael

    Abbie & Daniélle first crossed paths with Cody Michael back in the early 2010's (when they were all just lil' college babies, dancing in the student organization

    ⁠DubH ⁠(Iowa State Hip Hop Club). But since then, Cody has been up to.....well, A LOT!! He chats about the numerous creative outlets he's dabbled in over the years for self-expression - dancing, performing onstage, podcasting, and ultimately how he ended up doing stand-up comedy! Cody shares his comedy origin story, how he navigates writers' block...plus the importance therapy, treatment for ADHD, as well as a very important PSA for all audience members at live shows. You won't want to miss this one!

  • "Welcome to the O.C., Bitch!" - An Amazing TV Recap with Abbie & Daniélle

    Come along for the ride as Abbie & Daniélle basically time travel back to the year 2003. It is here where Daniélle can rewatch (while Abbie for the VERY FIRST TIME watches) an episode of hit Fox TV show "The O.C." The hosts lovingly (and with some critiques) chat about the pilot episode, character arcs, plot lines, and discuss whether or not the show writing holds up 20 years later. Because Abbie has truly never seen a single episode, you best believe she has some thoughts! This was a fun nostalgia recap, and the hosts quickly realize it is going to be harder than originally thought to to reverse roles in this experiment (AKA: find a show that Daniélle has never seen before)!

  • "Creativity is Your Lifeline" with Leya Van Doren

    Leya Van Doren is a writer, creativity coach, and podcaster...but in her own words (and descriptors Abbie & Daniélle are most drawn to) - she is also "A maker of medicines, singer of songs, and collector of stories and seashells." Even in this brief sentence, her creative spirit shines!

    During the episode, Leya weaves together many stories from her life - between growing up with 7 siblings, living in an ashram, to studying musical theatre and the arts - and how she now guides others to their own creative magic. If you need a motivator for your own creative ventures (and how to overcome self-limiting beliefs) this one is for you!

  • It [Shouldn't] Matter if You're Black or White - a Discussion on Race and White Privilege

    TW: Racism, transphobia, and sexual abuse allegations

    Right before this recording, Abbie witnessed an overt racial profiling at the grocery store - which led the hosts discussing numerous topics about white privilege, racial profiling, and so many other BULL$#!+ things that (unfortunately) BIPOC and marginalized individuals have to experience on the daily.

    Abbie also shares a few podcasts that cover some heavy topics surrounding celebrities. Abbie & Daniélle process if it's appropriate or not to separate the art from the artist, and why nuanced conversations on trauma cycles are SO important to have.

  • A Little Bit of Everything with Abbie & Daniélle

Truly, no topic is left unturned. And because we can't make up our minds...we will let you the listeners decide who the real #QuoteQueen is of #RealLife.

  • Artificial Intelligence (AI): Friend or Foe?

    People truly love to hate on artificial intelligence (AI)......but what IS it exactly!?

    Well, look no further! This episode is for you - whether you're an avid Chat GPT (or other similar search engine) user like Daniélle, or are fearful that tech inventions will soon be taking over the world (like Abbie at the beginning of the episode) - there's a little something for everyone in this one. Hang out with the #RealLife hosts as they give their "armchair expert" opinions on something that truly still goes over our (...*Abbie's*....) heads a little bit. We also couldn't end an episode without sharing some favorite pop culture references that contain AI plot points.

    So who knows - maybe one of us learns that embracing new things doesn't have to be so scary after all! :)

  • Money Talks with Abbie & Daniélle

    Have you watched the popular Netflix show "How to Get Rich" yet??? Or maybe, you've been a longtime stan of Ramit Sethi, and have devoured his book & podcast (both titled "I Will Teach you to Be Rich")?  On this episode, join Abbie and Daniélle where they get candid about their relationships to finances - or what Ramit likes to coin as a "money story."  All traditionally taboo topics are on the table: income, debt, investments, savings (or lack thereof)...and of course student loans.  The hosts are sharing their individual successes and struggles with money, in hopes to open up the conversation with the #RealLife community.  Join us in getting vulnerable!

  • Understanding the Chameleon Effect: What it is like being the chameleon of the friend group.

    Abbie & Daniélle both know a thing or two about adjusting their behavior depending on a situation...aka going with the flow, and otherwise defined as being a "chameleon." 


    The hosts reflect why they believe this can be BOTH a positive or negative personality trait, and determine that simply a little bit of self reflection (and kindness) can go a long way - maybe even change the world!


    Abbie and Daniélle emphasize the transformative power of kindness in any situation, regardless of whether one is being a chameleon or not.

    They discuss how acts of kindness can create positive ripple effects, foster genuine connections, and contribute to making the world a better place.


    In this episode of #reallife Abbie and Daniélle explored the concept of being a chameleon and its implications as both a positive and negative personality trait.

    They highlighted the significance of self-reflection and kindness, stressing that a balance between authenticity and adaptability can lead to personal growth and even change the world. Stay tuned for our next episode, where we dive into another intriguing topic!

  • Millennials are Messy - You're Not Too Old For This!

    The internet is filled to the max with memes about aging, and millennial influencers complaining about their aches and pains....but Daniélle & Abbie are here and ready to debate with the collective: we HAVE to stop putting this energy in the universe! In the episode, the hosts discuss and share the reasons why we all should stop saying "I'm too old for this;" - because NOTHING is more off-putting than a self-limiting belief! Get some inspiration from this conversation of ways to re-think and reframe those thoughts, (and why STRESSING about aging is actually more harmful than anything else).
