TwoSistas, and it's WealthWellnessWednesday with Cindy Vallone!  Cindy is an Independent Wellness Advocate with doTERRA essential oils.  She began to utilize essential oils about 5 years ago because as she was suffering from chronic migraines and was tired of all of the negative side-effects of prescription drugs. She was amazed at how quickly Peppermint essential oil helped her with her migraines and from there, started to explore other oils and doTERRA's 'everyday' toxin-free products.  As Cindy described, essential oils (nature's medicine) has helped her family with everything from: head tension, earaches, stress, sleep, anxious feelings, boosting our immunity, relief from muscle aches, and supporting their respiratory and digestive systems.  They act as their 1st line of defense and as she stated, doTerra's motto "changing the world one drop at a time".

Cindy and her family are also involved with the non-profit, Guide Dogs for the Blind.  They often attend puppy school with their fostered dog!  (What an amazing organization!)

TwoSistas, TriumphTuesday - one sista is in the deep freeze all bundled up and the other sista is in the south wearing a tank top!  It's the little things and the big things that we triumph over.  An update from Carroll-Sue on her 3-day juicing (she ordered from a company called Juice from the Raw), Janis triumphing over the "KDP" Amazon formatting and everything in between from the lost bottoms of Tupperware to organizing your kitchen.  Speaking of juicing, are you a juicer?  What do you use to press your juice or do you order from a company?  What are some of your favorite recipes?

We would love to hear from you!  Please go to our website and leave us a voice message:

TwoSistas, MindsetMonday and it's always about the mindset, but what happens if your mindset is not in alignment with the task or goal at-hand?  Write down the pros and cons; be honest with yourself.  If for some reason you cannot do that something the day you planned, write yourself an appointment in your calendar when you are going to complete it.  Digging for the goal is not the problem; it's how we cultivate and evolve to reach our goal.  You may ask yourself is this a goal or just a wish?  A recap of Carroll-Sue's birthday weekend along with the details of her new 3-day juicing routine and how that integrates with intermittent fasting.

Do you like to juice?  Are you an intermittent faster?  We would love to hear from you!  Please go to our website and leave us a voice mail:

TwoSistas, FantabulousFriday and a recap of the week - it's a snowy day in Connecticut and a little cloudy in Florida.  A chat about Betty White and her amazing longevity and how she lived her life - she is with all of the GoldenGirls now!  How her mindfulness and how she always took care of herself is a testament to that longevity.  It's creating that space where you take care of you - setting a time to rest, hydrate, and getting that movement in.  Think of talking to yourself in a positive way which encourages you to move in the direction you want to.  If for instance it's about exercising, don't say to yourself, "ugh I have to exercise now" - reframe your direction and say to yourself "woohoo, time to get my healthy on - how am I going to push myself today".  

Of course, you don't have to say those specific things; it's about creating and cultivating a condition or set of circumstances where you want to be vs where you have to be.  It took a long time for Janis to realize that!

Also, someone has a birthday tomorrow, January 8th - Happy Birthday Carroll-Sue!!

TwoSistas on this WealthWellnessWednesday with the amazing, uplifting Mary Jenkins!  Mary Jenkins is a Veteran, Author, Inspirational Speaker and 2x Breast Cancer survivor who, while in active treatment turned her pain into purpose!

TwoSistas, TriumphTuesday and it is the 1st Tuesday of the New Year!  A lot of times, the triumphs are things that we have accomplished and should give ourselves credit for; sometimes, it's the triumph of change which may lead us in a different and better direction - that's a triumph!  A longer than normal chat today as we had a lot to cover - have you ever heard of "CTS"?  Janis explains that CTS is the "Catastrophic Then Some" weight gain which she experienced in her early 40's.  Why it's THAT important to have that objective conversation with yourself being brutally honest and why that was necessary for Janis to heed her doctor's warning.  A great conversation as always!

We would love to hear from you!  Let us know your thoughts and how you view your triumphs.  Go to our website:

TwoSistas, MindsetMonday and the "first" of many!!  Welcome to 2022 - how long will it take us to write out the correct year??!!  Today's conversation centered around making strides to do things differently than we have before.  In other words, if you decide you need to take off the holiday cookie pounds (as an example of course), don't punish yourself as you go forward and try to implement new changes in this new year.  It's not about the weight we have to lose - it's about being gentle and kind to ourselves and more importantly, being brutally honest.  If we want to become healthy, we must adapt a new type of lifestyle - take steps each day, create a new routine, a new momentum.  It may seem hard, difficult and perhaps a bit difficult.  

Many have already rushed to the gym - what if you are not a fan of going to the gym?  Try looking up different workout routines on YouTube or many of our cable providers provide fitness class on demand - it's definitely worth looking into.  Be subjective with your objective to gain a new healthy lifestyle and guess what, you are SO WORTH IT!!  THE KEY IS IN YOUR MINDSET!

We would love to hear from you!  Do you have any ideas, topics that you would like to share with us?  Please go to our website and leave us a voice message:
