Episode 010 – Reviews and Randomness YOUinterview with Guest, Meredith

by

YOUinterview episodes are where I highlight everyday, normal women (like yourself), and see what products/services are being used, any pondering purchases, etc and see where the conversation leads us.

In episode 10, I have guest Meredith, who is my youngest sister. We talk about some of her favorite cleaning products, hair tools, and even have a very random Chronicles of Laura interruption in the show. 🙂 My sisters are so special to me, so it’s extra special for me to publish these type of episodes.

Also, take a listen to Episode 4, where I feature one of my other sisters, Katie, if you haven’t listened to it yet (I have three younger sisters in case you don’t know that). 🙂

I hope you enjoy them and have a super week ahead!

Episode 009- A Beginner’s Guide to Whole30 – My Experience

by

In this episode, I do a deep dive into my thoughts and learnings from completing Whole30 in March 2019. If you are contemplating starting Whole30 yourself or know a friend who is, this episode will be a nice perspective to listen to (especially if you’re looking from a point of view from a non-fitness guru, like myself).

Unfortunately, eating well and exercising is not a passion for me nor is it something that I easily make time for in my life. So, attempting to do Whole30 was a HUGE stretch for me. I may have become a beast of a woman at times because I was hungry for stuff I wanted and couldn’t have, but I did see some benefits.

I hope you enjoy listening! If you think it was informative and helpful, consider sharing it with a friend!
