  • Babies with Tattoos, Swimsuit Season & Self Care: Episode #66: The Trillest Podcast

    Episode 66 is a grab bag of fun and randomness. After a super serious conversation on babies with tattoos, and learning that Salah has had to get her ears pierced 7 times (insane!), we chat about a few more serious topics. Starting with the discussion on summer bodies and how it seems like that's what everyone is talking about. This turns in to a deep discussion on confidence and what a big role it plays into the way we look. Then we dig a little into self-care practices and gratitude journaling. Go listen and let us know what you think!

    In an effort to bring more bad ass ladies into our podcast space, we've invited our (newly pregnant!) bestie, Brooke aka Brukie Ehlinger in to chat with us this week. We got a life update from Brooke on her growing baby bump, birthing plan and how she's preparing for the lack of sleep to come in her near future:). The real meat of the episode is our discussion around the recent social media uproar of body acceptance and how wanting to modify your body has become shameful.

  • 30 Before 40: Episode #57: The Trillest Podcast

    Whoop, it's Salah's birthday week! She's turning the big 3-0 and to celebrate we did something special for the podcast. We each wrote down a list of 30 life goals to accomplish before we turned 40 (inspired by Episode 55 with Caitlin) and chatted all about them. It was a super fun activity and really made us look forward to this decade we have in front of us. Go give it a listen and let us know what you think about 10-year goals, into it or nay? Either way, keeping it #trill on the daily should be on everyone's list (in our opinion :))!
