- Lights, Camera, Action! (Part 1)
Ever wondered how your favorite movie/tv show got to where it is? Well we’re here to help! On this weeks episode, we’re discussing the ins and outs of the film production process. Most of the knowledge coming from Christine’s past in film during college.
There was so much information, we needed to split this into two parts! On this episode, we discuss the roles within the film production from the director all the way down to the catering table. Next week, we talk about the process and the steps you have to take to be successful.

First they were used to smush boobs together, then an invention gave breasts their own space, but now… is it time to let them go? If you’ve been struggling with your bra, you’re not alone! Let’s dig deeper (no pun intended on your bra band digging into your skin as you read this!!!) into the bra and find out how we got here.

There’s so many more resource links! If there’s a specific topic in the episode you want to explore and want the starting point, let me know! I’ll send the full list.
Challenge: Pick one! 1) If you typically always wear a bra, try a day (or two) without wearing one! How did it feel? I want to know! 2) Try a different kind of bra! Ditch the T-shirt bra, let’s go racer back. 3) Check your bra size! Measure yourself or get yourself measured and see if anything changed.
