Savannah Fredregill, Wendi's middle daughter,  joins us on a heartfelt exploration through the evolution of female friendships, confronting the past, and braving the digital world as a Gen Z woman. From the drama-filled corridors of high school to the fresh start of college life, Savannah shares her journey of forming genuine connections and the personal growth that comes with stepping into new environments.

As we discuss social media's impact, it's not just about the likes and the stories; it's about how platforms like Snapchat redefine our conversations and interactions. We laugh over the nostalgia of "teen lines" and dive deep into the pressures of maintaining an online presence.

Finally, we open up about the challenges and hilarity of today's dating scene for college students. From the swipe culture of dating apps to the life lessons learned with each left or right motion, we chat about the quest for authentic connections amidst curated profiles. And when you think we've covered it all, we kick back with a playful discussion on surfing's therapeutic powers, cootie catchers, and the importance of not taking ourselves too seriously. 

Join us for a conversation that's as enlightening as it is entertaining, where we reflect on the milestones and moments that shape our lives and the friendships that make it all worthwhile.

When the subconscious mind whispers secrets of transformation, Beth Holstein's expertise in PSYCH-K therapy reveals them to the conscious world. Embark on a fascinating journey with Beth as she recounts her path from Brazil to the U.S., her evolution from elementary education to the nuanced field of psychotherapy, and her discovery of the life-altering power of PSYCH-K. Her story unveils the soul-stirring impact of energy psychology and the breakthroughs made possible through this healing modality.

Have you ever wondered if the barriers to your success, happiness, and fulfillment lie beneath subconscious beliefs? This episode peels back those layers as Beth, Certified International PSYCH-K® Instructor, illustrates how muscle testing in applied kinesiology can unearth and shift our deepest fears and negative frequencies. By verbalizing goals and reframing fears, we learn how partners (not patients or clients) can harmonize their internal narratives, fostering a resonance that propels extraordinary personal growth. These revelations are both a beacon and a roadmap for anyone to harness their intrinsic potential.

The transformative influence of personal change doesn't stop at the individual—it ripples out to touch the essence of our purpose and satisfaction in life. Beth shares how she supports people in workshops designed to cultivate personal power, self-esteem, and prosperity, emphasizing the profound roles of grief and forgiveness in this process. 

As we close, we're left with a sense of gratitude and anticipation for future learning, imbued with the electrifying energy of Beth's experience and the promise of her PSYCH-K Basic Workshop as a force for positive change in our lives.

Ever left a voicemail for your BFF singing tunes you made up or sent a text that had you both in stitches? That's the kind of fun we, Tricia and Wendi, bring to our podcast. Join us as we delve into the quirky side of life's communication and the profound journey of setting intentions for your personal growth. 

In this episode, we share the origin story of Muumus + Manifesting, our first small group party on April 17th, using the Qnity Life Map. This is one of the many Qnity tools that Tricia has used for her salon team for over a decade, and Wendi uses it with her coaching business. It's a hearty mix of laughter, real talk, and sparkling revelations, all served with a side of sass.

Buckle up as we rant about flying, Wendi's run-in with the law during a bathroom emergency, and our excitement for our women-centric small group events. It's more than laughs; it's a celebration of those small wins and the magic sprinkled in everyday life. 

Our 'Muumuus and Manifesting' event is just the start. We're planning more gatherings to foster deep connections in our community, providing a space for personal growth and shared experiences.

When the laughter of loved ones echoes in our memories, it's a treasure unlike any other. Dr. Amy Hughes joined us to share how she's ensuring those echoes never fade by capturing the essence of her patients through legacy videos. Her heartwarming stories remind us that joy and humor still have their place amidst the solemnity of life's final chapter.

Dr. Amy Hughes is a medical oncologist with Mission Cancer + Blood in Des Moines, IA. With 15 years of experience in oncology, she is deeply aware of the challenges a cancer diagnosis creates. She has dedicated her career to helping patients navigate these hurdles gracefully and empathetically. She was a Hospice volunteer for many years before her medical career and is also a certified death doula.

Dr. Hughes noticed that often, she was seeing patients facing the end of life with a great sense of anxiety and fear about leaving loved ones behind. This experience, in combination with her own personal losses, led her to found the 501c3 non-profit Amadora Legacy Project, with a mission to create lasting gifts of love by capturing the life stories on film of those with life-limiting illnesses. She feels passionate about normalizing the conversation around end-of-life, removing the stigma, and encouraging ALL people to be prepared because none of us know where life will take us.

Navigating the end-of-life journey requires a special kind of compassion, which our guest possesses in abundance. Her touching insights into guiding individuals and families through the transition of death evoke a profound respect for life's fragility. It's not just about confronting mortality; we're talking about embracing it, understanding the choices, and breaking down the stigmas that often shroud this most natural part of our existence.

Finally, our hearts are full of gratitude for the medical caregivers who sustain their empathy in the face of dwindling support. Dr. Hughes' narrative is a testament to the resilience and generosity of those who extend their care beyond the hospital walls, finding solace and purpose in non-profit endeavors. This episode illuminates the undeniable strength and spirit within the medical community and the profound messages of life's true value from those who witness its end.

David's storytelling brings a childhood steeped in cultural richness and adventure to life. Through the kaleidoscope of David's life, we traverse themes that strike a chord with us all – family, health, and the impact we leave on the world. Our conversation weaves through the adaptability of children in globetrotting families, the importance of stability, and the transformative power of personal challenges like overcoming cancer. David's pivot to entrepreneurship, imbued with a philanthropic spirit, sheds light on the potential of businesses to create wealth and make a lasting social contribution.

Have you ever wondered about the strange things women discuss when they get together, let alone when that rendezvous is recorded for a podcast? Well, brace yourselves for an amusing yet insightful journey with us, your hosts Tricia Rivas and Wendi Fredregill, as we join forces with the dynamic duo behind the "The Mic Is On" podcast, Tina Smothers and Beth Runles, Property Management Gurus and mentors with over 25 years in their field.

Tina has, and trust us, it makes for a hilarious story. Additionally, we discuss the often-overlooked aspects of everyday life, like sleepwear choices, laundry mishaps, and the realities of being a woman, including periods and toxic shock. Our conversation about the property management industry will leave you in stitches as they share a weird incident they encountered - think abandoned rats and walls smeared with ketchup!

As if that wasn't enough, we also discuss a unique cat fiasco at the airport, the nostalgia related to typewriters, and our potential new fashion trend - Moo Moos for pajamas! Join us for a rollercoaster ride of laughter, insights, and a whole lot of fun. You won't want to miss it!
