For the rest of the summer, we’re doing a Summer Rewind, re-releasing some of our must-listen episodes as we ramp up to the launch of season two. See you in September friends!

Change and adversity are the only constant in this life, and if this year has taught us anything, it’s that the more you focus on building a solid foundation within yourself, the more external chaos you can handle.

If you’ve been thinking about getting back into your health and fitness routine (especially while we’re stuck at home), we got you. In episode 9, we sat down with fitness coach and founder of Born To Sweat, Beverley Cheng, to learn about motivation tips, how to set realistic goals, how to track your progress, proper form for weight room power moves, and three things you can start doing TODAY to live a healthier life (spoiler alert: we need to start drinking water).

One of the things we’ve been hearing most for the last while (outside of “unprecedented times” and “You’re on mute!”) is that our friends and families are feeling hella burnt out right now.

And even though our lives have slowed down and become more minimal in some ways, life is picking back up again and there’s a lot more stress, expectation and pressure overall.

Summer can be a very triggering time for a lot of people when it comes to body image and insecurities. We polled you guys on Instagram about how you’re feeling in terms of confidence and self-acceptance, and we learned that we’re definitely not alone in this feeling. 76% of you said that summer triggers your insecurities, while 77% of you are feeling anxious about re-emerging from lockdowns with all the physical and mental changes we’ve undergone. 91% of you said that you struggle with negative self-talk, and we feel you...we can all be our own worst critics and bullies.

As if adulting wasn’t hard enough already, we’re now facing the realities of rising interest rates, skyrocketing inflation, mass layoffs and a looming recession. Anyone else need a drink? So this week’s episode is all about how to recession-proof our finances, because economic instability is upon us, whether we like it or not.

There is A LOT to learn when it comes to protecting your nest egg, winning in an unstable stock market, and multiplying your revenue streams, so we brought in financial expert Nicole Victoria AKA No Budget Babe, to teach us how to take control of our finances.

Is anyone else feeling uneasy after that non-stop barrage of media coverage from the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial? 🙋‍♀️Social media has given everyone a platform to share their opinions, but the deeper we get into these hot button topics, the harder it gets to tell fact from fiction and avoid the trolls #fakenews.

So this week we called in Sadaf Ahsan and Sarah Sahagian from Frequency Podcast Network’s The Reheat, to get their expert advice on ethical media consumption and how to navigate the news with accuracy.

Spring has sprung and we are in full swing cleaning mode, but this year we decided to take it one step further and get *Monica clean* by learning how to properly declutter and organize our homes (and our lives), and the psychology behind our belongings.

It’s time to say goodbye to those cluttered closets because while you may not realize it – living amongst disorder can have a really negative impact on your life. Think about all of the unnecessary time and energy you waste trying to find your keys or that important document you needed. Or the pile of aspirational items that make you feel bad about yourself.

Let’s be honest, according to our phone’s screen time reports, we’re all spending a helluva lot of time online. And whether you’re logging on for business or pleasure, there are a lot of risks online that can be so financially or personally devastating.

But don’t worry friends, we’ve got you covered this week with tips for keeping your identity, your cashmoney, your sensitive photos, and everything else safe online from all the Anna Sorokin and Tinder Swindlers out there.

Unpopular opinion: It’s NOT always healthy to find the silver lining in everything. Some things just suck, and we don’t always need to look on the bright side, at the expense of *actually* processing hard feelings.

Our culture is obsessed with a “good vibes only,” and “everything happens for a reason” state of mind that makes us feel like we’re failing if we’re not happy 100% of the time. Trying to see the positive isn’t always positive, sometimes shit happens that doesn’t make us stronger, and we’re ready to break up with toxic positivity so we can fully experience our emotions AND our loved ones’ feelings. (Because nothing is worse than platitudes.)

We all know that the years start coming and they don’t stop coming, but we’re starting to have trouble remembering them. Our memories are an essential part of who we are and this week we learned there’s A LOT that can impact our ability to remember the good old days (or just that person’s name we met five minutes ago, tbh).

If you’ve been feeling some brain fog lately you’re not alone — surprisingly, there’s a lot that goes into maintaining our memory, especially when a global health crisis cuts off the stimulation our minds need to stay sharp.

But we’re diving into hacking our brainwaves and training our minds so that we can actually remember all the things we need to do today. May the odds be ever in our favour!

Friends, this week’s episode is a juicyyy one! We sat down with sex coach and educator Portia Brown to chat all things orgasms and how to take control of your own pleasure. Because there’s an embarrassing amount we don’t know about our own sexual physiology, and we’re SO ready to take self-care to the next level by creating a pleasure practice that helps us tune into our body and mind.

The one thing we all need to do literally every day is make decisions. So you made the right decision to listen to this one today! But for those of you plagued with indecision (like us) it can be a struggggle.

So here’s the tea: being decisive isn’t about being right, it’s about growing and learning from all of the possible outcomes. Plus making no decision is actually a decision — you’re choosing stagnation. So in this week’s episode we’re kissing our indecisiveness goodbye, so we confidently navigate our way through adulthood and get good at making decisions.

Let’s face it… life is exhausting, but that doesn’t stop the sun from rising every morning so it’s time we figured out how to hack the system and stay energized!

This week’s quickie is all about fighting fatigue and finding more energy so we can get sh*t done. So get caffeinated because we’re covering everything from the basics we’ve been known to ignore (has anyone ever slept for 8 hours?) to new tricks backed by the pros (hot tip: have more sex).

If you’re fresh out of a breakup and are feeling alllll of the feels, this one's for you. Navigating a breakup is never easy, but you’re far from alone. A study last year showed 25% of Canadians between the ages of 18-24 split up during the pandemic, and 5 million Canadians have experienced a recent breakup.

Experts say it can take 6-8 weeks to get over the initial intensity of heartbreak, but with a lack of access during lockdowns to the normal stuff we do to get over our exes, and an ongoing mental health crisis, the “getting over it” part has been hard lately. That leaves us with the inner work we have to do: Finding out who we are again, rewriting our narratives, filling that void, and loving ourselves first.

We called in breakup expert Lindsey Ellison to help us fall in love with our life again and manifest the dream partner that we deserve. Because when you can feel happy on your own, you're raising the bar for the next partner you bring into your life.

Love week is right around the corner so we’re throwing it back to this gem from 2021 where we dive into the five Love Languages, what they mean, and tips for dating each type.

ICYMI, The Five Love Languages was written by marriage counselor, Dr. Gary Chapman, and has sold over twelve million copies worldwide! We’re not kidding when we say it’s been a game changer for people all over the world…it’s literally been on the New York Times best-sellers list since 2007!

Dr. Chapman noticed that couples often came to him with the same concern: “I feel like my partner doesn’t love me.” Starting to recognize a pattern, he discovered that there were five categories on how people could give their partner the love they need: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service and Physical Touch.

Humans are social animals – we thrive off connection – and after two years of almost constant isolation and working from home, people are feeling lonelier than ever. But being alone and being lonely are two very different things, and we’re here to tell you that getting comfortable spending time on your own can be the ultimate game-changer for your health, happiness and relationships.

It’s all about reframing our idea of being alone. After all, personal time is a luxury in our busy lives, and making space to relax, reflect or get creative in solitude has amazing positive outcomes. Even if you thrive off social connection (we see you, extroverts!), finding fulfillment on your own is essential. So, this week we’re exploring how to combat loneliness and enjoy being alone!

Take it from us: building a successful side hustle or business is time consuming, especially if you’re juggling it between your 9-5 and all of life’s other commitments. But being your own boss definitely has its perks and it seems the entrepreneurial feeling is catching on. Gig workers now represent more than one in 10 Canadian adults, and 20% of millennials – the next could be you!

If you’ve been thinking about giving your own biz a go, this ones for you! We’re all about sharing the wisdom, so in this Quickie we’re passing along the most important lessons we’ve learned starting our own business and how to set yourself up for success.

One of the most common resolutions that almost everyone has in January is to save more money. But it’s not that easy with high living expenses, a hundred streaming service subscriptions, and a hefty UberEats habit. So in this week’s Quickie we’re diving into easy ways to save money…literally starting today! Because adulting just hits different when you have your financial sh*t together.

This year, instead of setting goals for ourselves and then promptly forgetting them, we’re focused on being intentional with our objectives and making sure we achieve them. Enter manifestation. If you’ve been anywhere near the internet lately you’ve probably heard the buzz around manifestation, and honestly the whole concept sounded too good to be true.

So, this week, we’re digging deeper to find out if any of the hype is real, or if TikTok has made us all lose our minds. Spoiler alert: manifestation works (but it takes a little more effort than just asking the universe to step in)!

This quickie is all about the science behind manifesting your dreams into reality, and how to incorporate intentions, visualization and affirmations into your daily life. There’s no magic or snake oil involved, we promise. So join us in starting 2022 off right with our official no-BS guide to using manifestation to master your mindset and get what you want.
