We were open about their own struggles with anxiety, depression and emotional issues we’ve struggled with. We loved having a conversation from a therapist’s perspective, especially because we both are HUGE proponents of getting help and never being ashamed of it.

In today’s podcast, Jessie and Christina were so excited to talk to author, Doug Cartwright. Doug is a self-proclaimed “Mormon, Sales, Tech Bro” and how (and why) he decided to give up that identity. We also really dove into the fear of control that we have that keep us from letting go of who we are supposed to be. Our conversation dove into trauma and how we’re gaslighting our own trauma. Why are we trying to “out suffer” each other and instead come together and heal collectively?
We hope you love this insightful episode with Doug Cartwright!

We’re so excited to share this episode with Kathy Davis all about busting vegan myths and why you should be adding in more plants. Now, carnivores - don’t click off! While Kathy is a vegan herself and has written plant-based cookbooks, she believes what we really need to do is just add more plants (even if you’re still eating meat.)
During this episode, Kathy gives us helpful ideas on how to incorporate more plants, why carbs aren’t the enemy and reframe the way you think about food. She takes us through how she makes plant-based living work while living on the road and why it doesn’t have to ..read more
