In this final episode of Season 3, we are talking about reality neutrality! And, we like to call it that because...reality is neutral, people! The only moment we have is the moment we’re in, and that moment has no motives but to become what we make of it! Which means: how we choose to respond to that moment, and what we choose to DO with it, is what will define our times as good times, or bad times...or, drinking times! Because, in reality, there is an entirely massive spectrum of emotions all going on within the same set of seconds! And, although we can't choose our reality, we can choose how we show up in it, how we define it for ourselves, and how we use our current moment to shape our future to come out the other side stronger...and, that’s what today’s episode is all about! So - cheers to today’s Season 3 send off, and, most importantly, cheers to this moment with have with YOU!!!

As a supplement to last week's episode, today, we're going to talk about the stuff we need to actually do, in order to get our business DONE! Which means...it's Time to Get Gritty, fam! As "grit" becomes a more popularized term in modern society, today's episode is going to break down what we really mean when we talk about living our lives with good, old fashioned GRIT! Because, grit is truly the behind the scenes work of persevering past what we think our own capabilities are, picking ourselves up after we fall and fail, and working our little a$$es off, day in and day out. Because - let's face it - we can't all be beautiful unicorns born with uniquely special talents, but we can ALL achieve success through getting a little more gritty and grimy in our lives! SO - cheers to the good of the grit, the bad of the grit, and (of course) the drink(s) that pair oh so perfectly with our grit ;)

Okay SO, today's episode is a little bit of a throwback to the Flight of the Conchords song, but, more than that, "It's Business Time", means it's time to shape up, step up, and start getting sh*t done. And, while many of our episodes in the past couple of months have been centered around our current climate (*cough cough COVID*), this episode is about how we move forward from here, and make our goals a reality. Because, as much as we'd all like it to, the coronavirus isn't going away yet, which means we have to learn to set new goals in this new normal. So - today's the day! We're taking off our sweatpants, putting on our big girl pants (even if they fit a little tighter than we'd like to admit), getting our sh*t together, and doing some damn business! Hit that play button if you're ready to move the F on with us, and let's CHEERS to finding and redefining our goals that CAN be achieved - even through COVID-19! 

And (P.S.) for those of you who aren't quite there yet - we feel you - and may you feel free to check out some of our previous episodes ;)

Today's episode is inspired by one of our favorite mentors, Kara Loewentheil, and her idea that A- work makes the world go round! Because, if we're always striving for the A (AKA perfection), we will inevitably stunt our own growth, for the plain fact that perfection isn't always attainable! And, as A students, and sisters who have definitely struggled with perfectionist brains, we want to lower it down to a B+ for us. In this episode, we are talking about how perfectionist ideals can paralyze our own growth and well being, and why it's OK to give yourself the grace to be okay with B work sometimes! It's the first Monday of a new month, and we're giving ourselves permission to F UP, because...Guess what? Sh*t HAPPENS, life has its ups and it's downs, and that's where we learn! And, this whole "give your 110%" thing, isn't actually humanly possible...SO...Cheers to acknowledging our humanness, recognizing that you are ENOUGH (in whatever way you can show up), and finding our best, B+ self that strives for progress, not perfection!

The idea behind today's episode is to Just Keep Swimming - because, lately, we've found ourselves singing these words to motivate us more often than not. Because, let's be real, when sh*t sucks, having Ellen DeGeneres' voice chanting this tune in your head, makes it just a little bit easier to do so! And, if you're by some chance not a Disney, Dory, OR Ellen fan, there are so many ways to say - just keep going. Because, when times are tough, it can be hard to feel like you're doing enough. But, in this episode, we are going to talk about - when we do get to that hard place - and feel overwhelmed with what to do next, how the reminder to just keep swimming, can allow us to keep moving forward - even if that's just one doggy paddle at a time! Because, in the end, progress equals progress, the little moves make the movement, and, change doesn't happen overnight! So, cheers to leaning in to this process towards progress, and learning that, even when forwards look backwards, we can hold on to knowing that these tough waters are also the perfect grounds for growth, and that we WILL rise with the tide, one day at a time!

Today, we are talking about something we like to call: The Humble Rumble. And, the humble rumble is really the internal struggle we often have when we are called to find our humility, but we resist doing so....Because, there is LOTS of rumbling going on in the world right now, and we think we could ALL use some humbling within it. During these difficult times, we have personally had to face new challenges in our relationships, as well as our restaurant, and, today, we want to talk about how we can be humbled through these rumbles, and come out the other side grown AF. Because, in all honesty, most of us could use a powerful push off of our pedestal of privilege, and a needed knock to our ego...because we all need that b**** to calm the F down anyways! So - in this episode, we are going to talk about how we can go about experiencing these humble rumbles in a way that leads us to lean in to gratitude for the privileges we do have, and therefore allow ourselves the opportunity to build empathy and understanding for our fellow humans who may be experiencing much worse. SO - here's a cheers to beginning again through humbling ourselves, and building up bigger and better from there!

Today, we're talking about: The Suckage. And, although we have said things about "the suck" before, we want to revisit it - as we, like many people, are feeling a lot of feels within our current moment...So, we like to think of suckage like baggage - you're always going to have it! But, in this episode, we want to talk about how we're going to choose to SHOW UP with our suitcase of suckage, and embrace the raw reality of what it means to be human - including the whole spectrum of sucky AND special seasons, spaces, and selves we will experience. Because, the reality is: sometimes, things just SUCK. And, sometimes, (brace yourself for this one), lemons just make sour lemon juice...And, while no one likes the sucky seasons, we also know that they are the same seasons where will shift our senses to new perspectives, allow ourselves to open new doors, and, overall, experience GROWTH. Because, when the going gets tough, the tough keeps growing. So - cheers to this roller coaster ride that we call life, finding peace in the pain, and discovering the message through going through the mess!

Today, we felt the need to press pause on our normal podcast, in order to speak about what's happening in our world. But, be forewarned: this episode is unlike any of our others, because there is nothing lighthearted about discussing the deep injustices affecting so many of our fellow humans. At this point in time, we recognize the need to be raw, truthful, and honest - and that's what this episode is about. Because, really, our world has come to: The Breaking Point. And, like many people, we too have the fear of saying something wrong, but it's come to the point where we can no longer stay silent. In this episode, we are talking about what has brought our world to explode in this way, what we can do to be the change, and ways to support our black brothers and sisters amidst this path towards progress. So - here's to recognizing our white privilege, having the tough conversations, seeing the things we don't want to see, waking up, speaking up, and standing up. As Maya Angelou says, "When you know better, do better." We can no longer hide in ignorance. Instead, let's lean in to learn, grow, and build a better world for our children. The time is now!

Today, we're talking about a sad and silly little thing called: The Shame Game. And, by that, we mean: the disheartening spread of shame towards community members, based off of their different approaches to life, amidst this pandemic period. (Boy that's a mouthful!) But, the truth? That can be summed up in one simple sentence! And, that is: there's a lot of differing information circling out there, people have their own uniquely distinct needs, and everyone's pandemic story will be just that: DIFFERENT! So, in today's episode, we're opening up the door to discovering what we can do better. Because, right now, we're continuing to hurt each other as human beings, when, the reality is, that right now...is the time we most need to build each other UP! So, get ready to talk out the bull shit, and drink up the good shit. Cheers to sharing our stories, being a part of a positive shift, and showing up for others the way we would want others to show up for US...plus a little well placed humor ;)

Today, we're talking about the things we can do to not only get through the hard times, but to grow through the hard times. And, for us...that means listening to a LOT of Beyoncé. But, as businesses are beginning to open up, we have seen a positive shift coming, and we could think of no better time to finally listen to the wise words of Queen B, and "upgrade ya!" Because, as the world around us experiences a sort of rebirth, why shouldn't we give ourselves permission to do the same? What if, this time around, we allowed ourselves to not only seek out to learn the things that advance our careers and businesses, but also allowed ourselves ALL the things that plainly and simply, just bring us JOY? In this episode, we're gonna ponder, discuss, and DRINK to just that! So - cheers to discovering, diversifying, and leaning into this opportunity to upgrade ya - for yourself, your family, and our world!
