There's a Hack For That

On today’s episode, Erica and Lauren chat with Dr. Brittany Woolford, Psychologist, Relationship Therapist/Coach and Owner of Lone Wolf Psychological Services. We all know that relationships are important, but understanding how to have healthy relationships can be something missing in our lives! In today's conversation we talk about what gets in the way of people having healthy relationships, what love, romance and relationships look like in the middle of a pandemic, attachment styles and of course a few hacks for cultivating healthy relationships whether you’re currently in a relationship or single and looking for love.

Some of the hacks we cover are:

1. Seeking preventative measures in your relationship before there’s an issue.
2. Continue to date each other.
3. Be forever curious! Ask questions and get to know your partner.
4. The 6 second kiss (you’ll just have to tune in to learn about this one!)
5. The Gottman Institute resources (linked below).

On today’s episode, Erica and Lauren interview Jocelyn Diaz, host of The Eczema Free Journey Podcast. She started her podcast in hopes of finding answers to healing hers and her children’s eczema naturally. She released a podcast each day and eventually found the answers she was looking for by reaching out to experts in the health field. With this episode, we want to inspire you to not be afraid of starting your own podcast. Whether you want to grow your business or just have a platform to share your message and connect with others, podcasting is for you! 

As Jocelyn tells us, we don’t have to be the expert to get started, sometimes we just have to take action and evolve as we go. Today we explore the low barrier to entry when it comes to podcasting (Jocelyn got started with her phone and the headphones that came with it!) and so many hacks you can use to make podcasting as painless as possible.

On top of growing her own podcast, Jocelyn helps manage and launch podcasts for others. You’re going to want to take notes during this episode! She has so many golden nuggets of knowledge to share.

Also, don’t forget to rate, review and share the podcast if you find value in it. It helps our community grow and get the information into the hands of those who need it most.

We appreciate you!
