Beauty Buzz List: A little story time about what all went down with my appendix and my hospital stay before we chat about a much more interesting topic...recapping the 2023 Met Gala. Not the most conventional "beauty" list, but hey, it's still a good time!
Our “beauty IN the ‘burgh” this week is JC Coccoli. She is a comedian on the high seas, but her roots are right here in Pittsburgh. She shares so much of her story and trajectory, from being on a reality TV in college to doing work with MTV before getting into her current career in stand-up comedy. She also discusses her work within businesses like She Thrives LLC and Steel City AF. Her story is equal parts genuine and funny, and it is one you will not want to miss. *This interview was filmed in two different segments, so video is not available in some sections to ensure optimal audio quality.

Beauty Buzz List: Due to my recent surgery and post-op infection, I took the week off to rest and heal, so there will be no Beauty Buzz List this week.
Beauty IN the 'Burgh: This week, we have Alex, a girl who has made a full-time job out of social media sales for Monat. We discuss the hot topic of MLMs, social media sales, and how we need to break the stigma of social selling. I know, we've all been annoyed by those "hey, girl" messages, and while those people may still exist, it's not the norm, and some of these businesses are giving some girls an income, a career, and a community. A conversation that definitely challenges you to re-think all of it.

Plus, we dissect current trends and if it’s truly time to put those skinny jeans away…

Beauty Buzz (Shortened) List: 1. brazil nuts have TONS of health benefits + 2. facial cupping isn’t (or is?) exactly what you think it is…so take a listen!
Beauty IN the 'Burgh: this week is Kelsa Blaine. Trigger Warning: This interview opens up about some heavy topics, which include discussions of cults, suicide, and sexuality in general. Kelsa Blaine is a true powerhouse female who runs Shatter Studios, a boudoir and erotica photography business, but she is so much more. Her story has a beautifully empowering message, and Kelsa Blaine is an absolute force of life, so it’s a MUST listen on how we as people need to start shattering the stigmas we come across in life!

Then, our first "Beauty IN the 'Burgh" interview is with Francesca, a Pittsburgh influencer who juggles a full-time career and personal life all while creating local content for her many followers across all of the social media platforms.

Hello, everybody! While "we" go through some changes on this podcast, some things remain the same! We still have a LOU list centered on beauty (with an update about mouth tape!), but in place of a guest this week, Torrie is speaking about how Life Opens Up got started, its trajectory thus far, and most importantly...where it's going next. You don't want to miss the end of this episode for a little hint at the "newness" coming up.
As always, thank you so much for listening. Kindly share with your friends/loved ones, follow/rate/review, and keep coming back every Friday for more!

Dr. Nick joins again for another LOU List that features a random assortment of topics, but Torrie needed to get his (unfiltered) thoughts on the recent Kelsea Ballerini divorce drama before sitting down with Amanda from The Swoon Spa to talk Botox and Filler 101. If you have never received 'tox before, or even if you have, she breaks down the basics, the way filler and botox can still be natural, and the unconventional ways they use the two at their spa. SUCH a good conversation, so don't miss it!

You've got a solo-Torrie LOU List of her LOVES this month before she sits down with Dr. LaMantia for a mini Newlywed-style game. Then, a little visitor pops his head in to round out the beginning of our episode! The biggest and most "magickal" part about this episode, though, is the interview with the ladies from Elemental Magick (28:00). It is an interview about crystals, their metaphysical store, how they use healings and reiki in their everyday lives, how to bring about peace and love in your life, and truly so much more. One of our most fascinating interviews yet!

For our first episode of February, we thought we would just sit down and chat about our favorite things: skincare and makeup! We touch upon the benefits of keeping your skincare cold, other benefits of cold showers/baths/etc., take a pop quiz on makeup expiration dates, and a candid update on Torrie's facial happenings. We finish off our chat discussing the benefits of an anti-inflammatory diet, and while we're not into detoxing, Torrie may embark on a non-gluten journey. We're finding our non-interview episodes seem to have us at our most unhinged, so be sure to tune in!

Michele is out of town for her sister's wedding, so this special episode features Torrie's husband, Nick, as the guest co-host which means the LOU List items this week are somewhat couple-related (after we discuss mouth taping....yeah?!), and we include our new segment we're calling the "E.N.Z.O." (everything-nonsenscial-zone-out) where we discuss the never-ending debate of WHEN to decorate for the holidays!

BOTH of your girls are back for a special (partial) video podcast episode to celebrate our first double-digit episode -- it's finally here...episode TEN! We decided to go completely off script, come to you unfiltered, and simply catch up how our lives have (duh) opened up since Leigha was last on the show. Then, Torrie sits down with Alex from Living Simply PGH to get us all in the mood for one of our least favorite tasks...cleaning. We promise you that Alex makes it sound doable, ever so slightly fun, and will have you feeling ready to tackle your organizational goals!
