What if the workout you've been forcing yourself to do is actually working against you?

We've been taught that more is always better. Wake up at 5 a.m., push harder, sweat more, burn more calories. But what if the key to feeling your best isn't doing *more*—it's doing what your body actually needs?

In Part 3 of our Four Pillars of Health series, we're talking all about "movement" but probably not in the way you expect.

This isn't another episode telling you to exercise more or lose weight. It's about completely reframing your relationship with movement and seeing it as an act of caring for your body, not punishing it.

We dive into:

* How to discover the type of exercise that's right for YOUR body.

* Why some workouts can leave you feeling exhausted, puffy, inflamed, or stuck—especially during perimenopause or times of chronic stress.

* Why more exercise isn't always better.

* How to move in a way that supports your hormones, nervous system, energy, and long-term health.

* How shifting your mindset around movement can improve your mental, emotional, and physical well-being.

If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still aren't seeing results or you've started to dread working out, this conversation might completely change the way you think about fitness.

Because movement shouldn't feel like punishment.

It should help you feel stronger, healthier, more energized, and more connected to your body.

We’re back 😂

After taking 6 months off from the podcast, we finally sat down for a good brother/sister catch-up and talked about where we’ve been, what life’s been like lately, and why we disappeared for a while.

This episode is super casual, honest, and all over the place in the best way. We talk about life, stress, growth, relationships, mental health, burnout, random realizations, and just trying to figure things out as we go like everyone else.

It honestly just felt really good to sit down and talk again.

Thanks for being here and thanks for sticking around while we took a break ❤️

I’ve never met anyone quite as authentic as Joey Labossiere, especially in the wellness space — and that’s exactly what drew Denai and I to have him on the show.

In this episode, Joey gets real as he opens up about his journey from working as a corrections officer to becoming a highly sought-after hypnotherapist, accidentally blowing up on TikTok, to helping thousands of people heal from trauma, rewrite limiting beliefs, and completely transform their lives.

He shares raw stories of his past — including his struggles with addiction, the powerful life lessons that came from it, and how those challenges guided him toward his purpose of helping others heal.

To top it all off, Joey leads us through a beautiful, light guided hypnosis session at the end of the episode that you definitely don’t want to miss.

Joey is one of the most grounded, genuine humans I’ve ever met, and this conversation is full of wisdom, truth, and heart.

🎧 Tune in, feel inspired, and connect deeper to your own healing journey.

Do you feel like you often feel unsettled in your relationship and that you need a lot of reassurance that your partner wants you and loves you? Do you struggle to trust and feel safe? If so, this episode is for you.

This week on The Hot Johnson we're talking about attachment theory. If you're not familiar with this theory, it essentially talks about how our relationships with our childhood caregivers tremendously imprint the way we show up in our adulthood relationships. It is often said that many people are either running toward or away from love & this theory kinda touches on why that is.

In this episode we briefly touch on the 3 of the main attachment styles: anxious, avoidant and secure, and offer some tips on how to move from feeling anxious in our relationships, to feeling more confident and secure.We share our personal experience in how we have made this shift as both of us grew up more anxiously attached and today feel quite secure.

We always love to hear from you guys & SO appreciate your feedback!Dont hesitate to reach out on instagram  ⁨@thehotjohnson⁩  Much love, Bron & Denai xo

How much fun are you actually having in your life? And how do you know when you’ve got a healthy balance between work and play?

In this episode of The Hot Johnson, Denai and I get real about our own experiences—times when we’ve hustled too hard, moments when we’ve let loose, and how we’ve learned (sometimes the hard way) to find that sweet spot between getting sh*t done and actually enjoying life.

We’ll also share some simple ways to figure out what balance looks like for you and how to bring more fun into your daily routine—without feeling guilty about it.

In this episode, we talk about:

• What a healthy work/play balance actually looks like

• How to recognize when you’re out of alignment

• Practical tips for making space for fun (without losing momentum)

• Why rest isn’t laziness—and why play is just as important as productivity

If you’ve ever felt like you’re either grinding too hard or not doing enough, this one’s for you.
