Maggie, Misty and Nikki are joined by previous contributor, and friend of the show, Mindy as they discuss seasonal friendships. Female friendships are essential, but sometimes they aren't made to last forever. With honesty these four women talk about times in their lives when friendships came to an end, and discuss how this made them feel, how they handled it and walk away with some healthy take away... 

Misty and Maggie sat down to chat with Elizabeth Schiffler, about her short film Champagne. While we are very excited about his film, the conversation is so much more than that. It is about hard work, dreams, connection and community.

Recently I mentioned how absolutely amazing it is to pursue a passion, and THIS WEEK, our guest AJ shares her story of doing just that. Misty had the chance to catch up with AJ and was able to geek out a little too, as their passions definitely align!

Abbey Howe, of Enneagram with Abbey, came to hang out with Misty, Maggie and Nikki. At the time of this recording we were each self isolating in different corners of the US and admittedly a big dazed by the world unfolding as it was. Abbey gives us so basic enneagram info and helps us see not only how helpful it can be, but how absolutely passionate she is about it. 

When we pursue passions, the world opens up in new ways!

I want to preface this with a possible trigger warning... 

Misty and Nikki sat down with the empowering Alexandra Cohl of Podraland to talk gender. It was inspired by a quote she shared on Instagram, and the conversation evolved organically to talk about some potentially triggering conversation regarding sexual assault.

Misty and Maggie had the absolute honor to sit down and talk with therapist Julie Markowitz. We continue our April series, since April is not only Stress Awareness Month, but the middle of the Covid-19 crisis. 

Julie shares her journey through, and inevitably into practicing therapy. She shares the correlations between chronic pain and trauma, and offers incredibly relevant and helpful information for any situation we are dealing with.

Maggie and Misty get the opportunity to bridge not only the barriers of self isolation, but an entire ocean to chat with anxiety expert, life coach, fellow podcaster and all around empowering woman Vikki Louise! In addition to hearing her personal story, we talk about how to navigate this life season, and Vikki offers us GREAT advice! She is a POWERHOUSE and so well organized that we had a moment where we had covered so many huge things so quickly, we were just kind of left wondering "now what"? 

We all need someone like that around, right now!

Misty and Maggie got the chance to sit down and chat with Colleen Rosenblum and Bridgett Biaggi Garratt, the hosts of the Hot Flashes & Cool Topics Podcast. Colleen & Bridgett are passionate about women's health and are creating a platform for information that isn't easily accessible, to make its way to women. It was an absolute pleasure to connect with them. For women, this is an absolute MUST listen!
