In this episode, me and my good friend, Chandany, talk about the factors that have gone into our dating journeys and how we’ve come to the conclusion of whether or not we’re ready to date.
This 2-part series is so relevant to us as we navigate love and relationships in the roaring 20’s, and we’re excited to bring you directly into our girl talk.
The content is JUICY so we had to split it into 2 parts to really get the full breadth and depth of it.
In part 1 we’re talking about our current dating status, how we’ve discerned past relationships, why or why we’re not ready to date, and rolled out some tips for what we’ve learned while answering this question for ourselves.
There’s also a TON of resources that were mentioned and I’ve linked them below:

If you’ve ever thought to yourself “This food is bad for me”, “I need to eat less”, “I messed up because I ate too late”, or anything similar, this episode is for you.
In most cases, much of our mindset around food contains hard and fast rules that may be hurting our health and well-being as opposed to helping it.
Steph is a certified wellness & nutrition coach who explores the thought patterns and reasons behind why we eat the way we eat. I drilled her on all sorts of diet-related questions to get to the bottom of what is really going on behind our diet habits and what we can do to start healing this part of our lives.
In this episode we talk about:
- What is diet culture?
- How to shift our mindset around dieting
- Debunking dieting myths and mindsets about: Good vs. bad foods, not eating late past 7pm, fasting
- How to figure out what works for your body
- Food journaling vs. calorie counting and macro tracking
- How does our relationship with food develop?
- Pros & cons of meal plans
- Perspective on gut & health tests
- Habits needed to build a healthy mindset around food
- Questions to ask yourself when you’re having cravings
This episode is stacked, so grab some notes!

This episode was filmed weeks and maybe months before the world started talking about Roe vs. Wade again. With that being said, this episode was never intended to be shared in light of the current overturning.
It’s a very sensitive time in the United States because at the time this episode airs, we are 2 days after the Supreme Court ruling.
This episode is about the transition of going from career woman to mom and all the bumps and hiccups along the way. Emily’s story briefly touches on unexpected motherhood and what that looks like, so I want to be clear up front that this episode does not intend to highlight any views or opinions about abortion, pro-choice, or pro-life.
I intend this episode to paint a clear picture for those of you who are not yet mothers on what it actually looks like to become one: The good, the bad, and the ugly from an ambitious woman who went through it all. I personally have never had the opportunity to fully ask a mom all my questions about the challenges of motherhood, so I know this conversation will be useful to you if you’re in a similar boat as me.
Coming out of this, my hope is that you understand more fully what the transition into motherhood is like and how you can better prepare yourself when the time comes.
In this episode, we talk about:
- What it’s like becoming a mother unexpectedly
- Handling the fears of becoming a mom
- Post-partum depression and how it can look
- The challenges of transitioning from career woman to mom
- Establishing identity before vs. after having a child
- Tools & resources to help you in the tough transition of finding yourself
- How to identify your needs when you don’t know what you need
- How to have your needs met when you’re a mom
- How to still accomplish your dreams after becoming a mom

He’s the CEO and founder of Positive Mental, a clothing brand that focuses on spreading positivity and mental health awareness.

Morgan is an author, advocate, wife, and speaker. Her work supports conversations that are needed to stop stigmas and support healing, self-acceptance, and personal growth. Her goal is to crush the image and pursuit of perfection by captivating the raw beauty of sincere progress.
Her first book "Questions, Christ, and the Quarter-Life Crisis" is one that I have read personally and can attest to its significance in getting me through my own quarter-life crisis. Her latest book, Blooming Bare, is a collection of poetry and prose that captures revelations, reflections, and raw conversations with one's self along the journey of self-love, healing, and growth.
This conversation is not one to skip over. We hit a whole bunch of angles when it comes to other people and their thoughts, words, opinions, and actions towards you. A few of the topics we cover are below:
- Morgan’s story of going through depression and a quarter-life crisis
- How to filter through fake friendships to find the real ones
- “Peace, Profits, and Purpose”… where do people fall into that?
- How to pull away from friends you no longer want to give time, energy, and attention
- How to handle people sharing and spreading rumors and saying hurtful things to you
- The process of healing and forgiveness
- About Morgan’s new up and coming book, “The Tears That Taught Me”

Relationships are challenging, but when we build a healthy foundation with our self worth we give ourselves a chance to flourish. Join me and a group of girlfriends as we talk about what our romantic, platonic, and familial relationships are like and how we've been able to relate to others. The conversation gets a little spicy when we start to disagree on some topics, but the conversation is fruitful, fun, and productive!
Here are the topics we cover:
- How to establish boundaries
- How to handle when you’re offended
- Setting the “thermostat” of your intimate relationships
- How to be a “strong, independent woman” without being selfish
- The balance between feminine and masculine
My girlfriends:

Continuing our self-worth series, we’re talking about CAREERS with some special and familiar guests. Angel Wynn was on last season when she talked about her creative career as a TV & film producer and Jessie Sales was on episode #2, talking about how to strengthen your mindset to push your body in fitness.
They are both incredibly insightful women and we had a deep and inspiring conversation about:
- How we can recognize low self-worth in ourselves
- What we can do to improve it
- How to handle when another person (coworker, boss, etc.) influences our self-worth
- Advice for raising your perception of value within your career.
This one made us all laugh, tear up, and reminisce on the defining moments of our lives. Hope you enjoy chatting with us <3

Today we’re beginning a 5-part series on something so foundational that it’s often missed. Think of the thick slab of concrete underneath a house. If you don’t have that piece and you try to build your house on top of it, your home is going to be shaky. Our self-worth is the same way to our mental health.
Many people get confused between self-worth, self-confidence, and self-esteem, but in reality, they’re all very closely related and are used to describe different aspects of how you perceive yourself, your abilities, and how you may express those inwardly and outwardly to others. We’re not going to dive into the differences today, but we’re going to focus on an aspect I believe to be the root of all three, and that is self-worth.

Are you experiencing an illness that you, doctors, and specialists can't seem to explain? Are you tired of reaching dead ends with finding a solution? Well, fear not because you are not alone.
Cassidy Amber Chapman experienced the same thing at just 16 years old. After doctors repeatedly told her that she was fine, people telling her that she was faking it, and going through a deep depression and suicidal thoughts, she decided to take her healing into her own hands.
Even though she had no idea how she was going to do it, she was determined to figure it out. The journey she went on led her to heal 12 of the 15 food allergies she had, lose over 60 lbs, and heal many of the symptoms that caused her so much pain.
Cassidy's message is one of empowerment as she believes that women with chronic, mystery, and invisible illnesses can reclaim control of their health and accomplish deep healing.

If you’ve ever wondered why you’re quiet, indecisive, or unable to express emotions, this is an episode for you. Tania and I both come from Filipino descent and our culture/childhood experiences led us down a path of being insecure about speaking our minds.
She talks about her story and how connecting with meditation and self-development has really helped her find who she is and awaken the confident woman she is today. Our talk is an intimate conversation where we not only reflect on how far we’ve come, but also reveal vulnerable moments that happened that very day or that week!
Self-development and personal growth happen ALL the time, ladies.
