rediscover

Welcome back to another episode of rediscover! rediscover has officially been around for 3 whole years, can you believe it?!

Today's episode was recorded on September 17th, which was rediscover's original release date back in 2020. Whether you are a brand new listener or an OG, we are so thankful to have you as part of our rediscover fam.

Today's episode honors the journey we have been on, not only with this podcast but within life itself. There is no ultimate "outcome" with what we do here - only an evolution of styles, topics, lessons, and connections.

Our conversation today also dove into reevaluating our "why" of posting on social media. It feels like there's a change in the winds in the way we share and consume content. It will be exciting to see how it all unfolds!

Whether it be social media or something else, we realize how important it is to detach and be the observer of everything that crosses our paths. We know these things are not who we are but rather something we do or experience - and that makes for a whole different approach.

When you practice the "law of unwavering faith" things often happen within the 11th hour. So let's reflect on past examples of where instances like this unfolded, accept that doubt can exist in the process, and relax in the Knowing that everything truly happens in its perfect time.

Welcome to rediscover! Whether this is your first time listening or you've been with us since the beginning, this episode promises to be one of our most pivotal and exciting of all-time! We're sharing some incredible full-circle moments, personal growth epiphanies, and a BIG life announcement! With Mercury still in the microwave...what else could you expect!?

rediscover is all about embracing seasons of transition, and September is the perfect month to do just that. As we say farewell to the Summer For the Girls and look forward to romanticizing our lives in Autumn, we're grounding ourselves in this moment (it's all we have!) and reflecting on how growing up and growing older has not only shifted our prioirties, but our whole outlook on life, living well, and being present.

this month's episode is a celebration of the here and now, not what's coming next or all the things that came before. it's an opportunity to practice presence, and we hope you'll find peace and contentment in joining us in this space. the (intentional) wedding plans can wait...we're savoring September! 🍁🍂☕️

Buckle up girls, gays, theys, and golden retriever boyfriends because this episode is for you. It's a summer for the girls and today on rediscover WE ARE GETTING INTO IT!

Why is it a summer for the girls, you ask? Well, to put it simply, it's the summer of The Eras Tour and The Barbie Movie. What a magnificent time to be alive! We are bringing you full reviews, first impressions, and truly celebrating what it means to be a woman.

The journey of womanhood is one of so much beauty, but also has so many complexities and layers. It can be extremely humbling at times, especially when we need to question our own views that have been fed to us from the lens of the patriarchal structure we were born into. It's exciting to break down these walls, see things from a more curious and neutral standpoint, and to choose AGAIN for the highest good of all. It's such a gift to be able to reclaim and nurture our innate feminine nature.

So today, we'll talk Taylor Swift. We'll talk Barbie. We're going to go into some deep spiritual growth topics and even stock up your summer reading list! This episode is the perfect one for Leo season and we're so excited to have this super fun (and important!) conversation with you. 💖

Hello and welcome back to rediscover! On this month's episode, we're leaning FULL SEND into Cancer season! From love and goodbyes to taking risks and career shifts, our July conversation is a bit of a freefall, so strap in and get ready for a wild ride!

Life is a spectrum of euphoria, contentment, grief and loss, and we're sharing stories and recent experiences that have taught us so many valuable lessons, but especially this: that even in the midst of your insecurity, your intuition is ever-present, connecting you back to your highest self and guiding you on your highest journey.

Today's conversation is all about embracing that adventure and learning to show yourself compassion and grace in every circumstance. Throughout this tribute to all our sweet Cancers out there, we've got some major life updates that cover the full spectrum, and we hope our perspectives resonate with you and provide you with some thought-provoking takeaways to ponder as you rediscover your highest self, surrender to the here and now, and just say: "F*ck it, let's go!"

Hello everyone and welcome back to rediscover! While last month's episode was very grounded in true Taurus season nature, this month's episode took us for a chaotic ride as Gemini season is in full swing. We started the episode off by easing into some typical conversations about summertime excitement, checking in on Jess' Costa Rica Travels, and sending love to our pets who are sick or passed on.

As the episode continues, Steven enters the scene with an ear infection, the air conditioner in Jess's hostel needed repairs, we lost half of a zoom recording, and Kristen's calm night of dog-sitting turned into monitoring a tick!

However, even with all of that chaos, we still had time to discuss the Live-Action remake of The Little Mermaid.

So if you're looking for a more real and raw rediscover episode, this one is for you. Thanks for sticking with us through ALL seasons of time, and we will talk to you soon!

Welcome back to rediscover! It's Taurus season, and this month's conversation is all about slowing down and getting grounded in our most authentic selves. We're going inward and examining the spaces that we want to heal, nurture, and grow, and that require vulnerability.

From contemplating the concepts of sober curiosity and intentional drinking to surrendering to our circumstances and unpacking what it means to truly design a life that is aligned with our most honest desires, we are digging deep into what it means to know who you are and live accordingly. We're getting comfortable with being uncomfortable, and with being on the outside looking in. Being authentic has nothing to do with being liked or admired, but everything to do with feeling content in our day-to-day lives and comfortable in our own skin. It's not always easy, and it definitely takes time, but we're here to help you out along the way; to hold space for whatever you're walking through and remind you that you're never alone.

We hope you resonate with today's conversation and that you feel like you're right here with us - sitting on Jess' bedroom floor, two hands wrapped around a cup of something cozy, having a chat with your best friends. Thank you so much for being here, and we'll talk to you again in June!

Welcome back to rediscover! We did a little "spring cleaning" on today's episode - revisiting some old topics from the past and diving into some new ones!

Some of the new and lighthearted subjects we talked about today are the weddings we've attended recently, as well as the upcoming excitement for high school reunions! One of the more technical topics we discussed is how important it is to back up your photos and videos to external storage, how to do it, and the emotional roller coaster that comes along with revisiting your past self.

Rewinding back to 2021, we revisited the conversations centered around social media usage and patterns in dating. Now that we've learned so much about health effects and subconscious mindset work, it's really incredible to see how our perspectives have evolved since then. It's really empowering to make choices from a more conscious space rather than just going on autopilot, and we hope to always continue growing these areas for the years to come!

We hope you enjoy today's conversation and that you feel like you're right here along with us - sitting on Jess' bedroom floor, chatting with your gal pals, and sipping on a cup of something cozy. Thank you for being here and we'll talk to you again in May!

Welcome back to rediscover! Today's episode features a beautifully unhinged array of topics - from career shifts and travel plans to observations we're making about the world around us and how we're rediscovering ourselves in this transitional season. As we begin to ease out of winter and look forward to the hope and rejuvenation that springtime brings, we're checking in with each other (and with you!) and holding space for all of the changes that are coming our way, and all of the exciting things on the horizon! Together, we're learning to dance with our fear and embracing all the possibilities of the unknown, and finding small but powerful ways to experience peace in the "now" and savor the moment.

We hope you find our conversations both empowering and validating, and that you'll come back next time, on the first Tuesday of the month, for a brand new episode. This is a space held for you to feel seen, known, and understood, and while we continue to rediscover ourselves, we hope you'll feel like you're right here with us, holding on to a cup of something cozy and settled in for a chat with two best friends!

After a several-month hiatus, rediscover is BACK and better than ever. We have reunited in the New Year and are taking a brand new approach to the way we create our beloved podcast.

Moving forward, our episodes are going to be much less structured and flow more like a "coffee shop-style" chat. We're going to speak about whatever is on our hearts and minds at the time of recording, to truly capture the most authentic real-time experience possible. We can't wait to see how we grow over the year!

Today's episode was recorded in the middle of January, where we are deep in wintertime "rest mode." We are experiencing a slowed-down pace with lots of inward reflection, which is in the process of revealing what is most important to us. We discussed everything from the inconsistencies of the "work-life balance" concept in real-time, to how subconscious beliefs unknowingly drive our actions. And we even did a thorough recap on what's been going on with both of us for the last six months - which has been full of adventure, rediscovery, and even love!

We are so happy to be back and so grateful to have you here. With our new schedule, we will be releasing new episodes on the first Tuesday of every month. We are so excited to continue rediscovering life together! We'll see you next time!
