TwoSistas on this FantabulousFriday, November 18, 2022 and we opened up today’s episode with a little song - you may know the words to this song:  “Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, hey hey goodbye”!  Yes; I think you can guess what or to whom we were referring to and yes of course, Janis sings off key!!

A look at this past week, changing of the guards and note cards and free speech??!!  Our thoughts and opinions on what’s happening in the world and what has transpired these past few weeks as well as 45’s announcement.

Janis also shared how excited she is to be the host of the Daisy Thon scheduled for Saturday, November 19, 2022 from 4-7pm EST / 3 - 6pm CST on the Stories That Inspire Us with Janis Facebook page.  The Daisy Thon is being held to raise awareness for Multi System Atrophy (MSA) which is a very rare, terminal illness.  MSA is so rare that it affects (4) out of 100k people!

She will be joined with special guest:  Daisy Paige, MSA patient and Author of the book, Unexpected Moments (with the foreword written by Kirk Cameron); Philip Fortier, MA and Founder of Defeat MSA Alliance; Eugene Paige (Daisy’s husband and caregiver); Chris Kozikas, MSA patient; and Tanya Schiefer, Author and MSA patient.

We hope you all have an amazing FantabulousFriday!  We know that many will start their traveling to be with their family and friends for Thanksgiving.  Let us know how you are doing with everything that has transpired with your week.  We would love to hear from you - Share it with us!  Go to our website and leave us a voice message.

TwoSistas and it’s WealthWellnessWednesday, November 16, 2022 and we chatted about how Thanksgiving and Christmas seem to go by too fast (is it our age - haha??!!) - sharing info on FB which might be considered harmful and why is that?  So many questions and as always our input on the world around us and how that affects our wellness well-being (yes; politics is slightly involved!)

That feeling of WealthWellnessWednesday and how we can always make an impact to make someone’s day brighter!!

TwoSistas and its MindsetMonday, November 14, 2022, with Jen Hernandez!  Jen is a registered dietitian and a certified specialist in renal nutrition.  Jen started her renal nutrition journey working in dialysis.  It was there that Jen listened to the fears and regrets from her dialysis patients over and over.  They wished they had the information and support earlier in their CKD (chronic kidney disease) journey to prevent dialysis. It was then that Jen founded Plant-Powered Kidneys.

We normally go throughout our lives not realizing the importance of our kidneys or even thinking of our kidney health before it’s too late.  There are so many outside mitigating factors as we age gracefully such as high blood pressure, diabetes and a whole gamut of other medical conditions that weaken and ultimately lead to CKD.

Where do we even begin to understand how to ask questions that we may have never asked our health care providers?  This of course came up in conversation as Jen chatted about the different blood tests that are routinely performed but that we as a layperson do not understand.  For instance, the GFR rate which is the estimate of the kidney filtration rate.

Many of Jen’s clients that she counsels had many routine blood tests in the past which indicate that the GFR was lower than it should be.  This is where we need to be proactive; not just with our blood tests but our general health and how and when to ask those questions.

Jen’s website offers a plethora of evidence-based blogs for different stages of CKD along with free resources.  She also chatted about how to get more nutrients in the body and why many patients that have CKD often need to go on a lower protein diet.  (The show notes for this podcast really could be a novel!  Please, if you know of anyone who suffers from any stage of CKD, please refer them to this podcast.)

Thank you so much Jen!  To learn more about Jen and Plant-Powered Kidneys and to connect with her further, please check out her website and other various social media platforms:

TwoSistas and it’s WealthWellnessWednesday, November 9, 2022, the day after the midterm Elections.  Yes; today was a heavy topic day.  As we contemplate what to write for the show notes for today’s episode, sometimes it’s that hard to really put into words the depth of what the outcome and soon to be determined outcomes of the Elections means to all of us.  We will say this . . . listen to today’s episode and we ask for your honest feedback . . . from both sides.

TwoSistas and it’s FantabulousFriday, November 4, 2022.  Today as we reminisce, we celebrate what would have been our Dad’s 96th Birthday / today is his 3rd Heavenly Birthday!

Also, it’s turn back the clock’s (1) hour on Sunday, November 6th at 2am EST - remember “Fall” back (you gain (1) hour); “Spring” forward (you loose an hour) - so technically speaking, this is the only time of the year that you can gain an extra hour!!  What will you do with it?

Why celebrating those wins are “fantabulous”, sometimes what we may deem as the “fail” or we experience a derailment which can actually be a good thing - it’s the process of redirecting energy that may lead us to a different path!!

We still say”  You say “clown”; I say “puppet” - yup, the upcoming midterms are fast approaching!

We hope you have an amazing FantabulousFriday!  Let us know how you are doing with everything that has transpired with your week.  We would love to hear from you - Share it with us!  Go to our website and leave us a voice message.

TwoSistas and it’s WealthWellnessWednesday, November 2, 2022.  We were a little later coming on this morning but it’s all good!  In the midst of the workout, gloves still on, always show up authentically you.  It’s National Epilepsy Awareness Month and National Vegan Month.  A discussion about the in’s and out’s of being Vegan and how reading the labels will clue you in.

A lot of Vegan products for instance are not gluten free.  Consuming a gluten free product does not mean it’s Vegan.  The importance of reading the product labels is the key!

A little nothing about something:  what’s up with the tags on the pillows and mattresses?  Janis wants to know!

And what’s all of the “jingling” noise in the background?  Janis’ Ring camera notifications!

What WealthWellnessWednesday means to both of us and how a healthy mindset with money will lend you to give to others in such a meaningful way!

What did you think about today’s episode?  How would you share the “wealth” and surprise an unsuspecting individual?  Share it with us!  Go to our website and leave us a voice message - we would love to hear from you:

TwoSistas welcomed to the TriumphTuesday podcast, November 1, 2022, Victoria Yates.  Victoria is a nurse turned food & body image coach for women, specializing in helping women to stop dieting & love their bodies through learning how to eat intuitively.

Victoria’s entry into entrepreneurship began about 6 years ago working full-time as a nurse when she started blogging and became very interested in intuitive eating and body image.   She reflected on many things that women often do - we do all the right things and in the end, get nowhere fast.

Victoria coaches many women who sacrifice their mental health with their physical health when it should be more meaningful and motivating to embrace the approach more intuitively.  In many aspects, we create a “mind drama” and deem that we have failed sometimes before we even begin.

With all the pressure to eat perfectly and have the perfect body, it’s no wonder that women (and men) feel stressed about how you should eat.

Victoria coaches her clients on how to have a healthy lifestyle built on the science behind intuitive eating so that you never have to go on another diet ever again.  Let’s repeat that again:  NEVER go on another diet again!!

Thank you so much Victoria!  To learn more about Victoria and to connect with her further, please check out her website and other social media platforms as well as her podcast “The Redefining Health Podcast”:

TwoSistas and it’s FantabulousFriday, October 21, 2022.  A catch up of this past week, and those little things that add up to be a lot!  Janis bundled up in the Northeast and Carroll-Sue on the last day of her 10-Day Detox and dressed for the sun!  A chat about gas prices skyrocketing in Massachusetts, which is not so Fantabulous news as well as the CDC requiring that children be immunized with the Covid 19 vaccine.  Politics and ask yourself, are you better off than you were a couple of years ago?

You say “clown”; I say “puppet”!!
