The Vital Check

For this episode, we are joined by OBGYN extraordinaire Dr. Nicole (@nicole_ashley_md). We get on track with our "Critically Single" segment on soul mates and “sole mates” then start stepping into important women’s health topics such as PCOS, menopause, natural treatments, common GYN misconceptions, and a whole lot of useful information surrounding it. It’s just two doctors and a DJ talking at a table, pull up a chair! Please be sure to comment and share!

Here at the Vital Check Show, we understand that although we bring forth positivity, enjoyment, laughs, and entertainment along with information and thought-provoking discussions, there’s a balance. Life is peaks and valleys. Doctor Jo & DJ Critical discuss working through those days when you don’t feel so chipper. The times when you wouldn’t mind a talk or hug. Here’s one for you! ::audio & virtual hugging :: We touch upon the award-winning novel, The Giver, being emotionally or mentally drained, and how to navigate the unbeknownst of time. Grab a tissue and pour your heart out with the Vital Check show.

Over the years we have encountered some extremely awesome people. This week our guests are two of those people, Amanda & Dashawn from the “This Functional Family Podcast”. Recently they have surpassed 10k subscribers & 1 million views on a reel. We’re super excited to have them join us. We share our thoughts on partner or purpose , partner or passion and can marriage be boring? We take a trip to the bank and realize that there are different types of relationship currencies in which we all make withdrawals & deposits! Finally we are given a few gems that we now call “morsels” such as proactive people prepare while reactive people repair. This episode is full of loaves of insightfulness that will leave you thirsty for more. Take a sip and enjoy!

Getting ready for the summer! Summer dresses & summer flings!

Take a trip to your favorite movie theater and check out this week’s humble brag recipient AV Rockwell’s new film “A Thousand and One“.

This week we’re loaded with shields and antidotes.

Shame, blame and perfectionism are all parts of the viscous cycle we call life that we navigate day to day. But we are resilient. We adapt and pivot. Be kinder to yourself , let the light in through the crack. We’re here for a good time not a long time. Enjoy!
