I'll let you in on a little secret: this episode is *sponsored* by the very exclusive sweat and tears I have spent obsessing over my fears, anxiety, and a wee bit of reality television over the past few weeks. But isn't that what the Twisty Pod is for? To bring us together to vent? No judgement zone? Same time next week, but then it's your turn. Also, the episode where I happen to rant on about my new and improved and ever-so-fabulous microphone, is also the same episode where I had 101 audio and video problems and ended up needing to use my camera audio for the podcast. And with that, I extend my sincerest apologies for your ears, your hearts, and my very weak moment far, far away from humility. Stream new episodes every week.

Comparison has always been my biggest flaw and simultaneously my biggest insecurity. I let it control my thoughts, actions, mood… it's a horrible cycle with no clear ending. I discuss how I let this bother me, and how I am working on fixing it. I share stories from my 9-5 life and why summer is so hard to enjoy. This episode nearly marks one year of the Twisty Pod, so I want to extend my utmost love to everyone who has been a part of this twisty journey.

A moment (and hopefully, a lifetime) for body acceptance and positivity, denim on denim on denim, keratosis pilaris, bathing suits hauls, and much, much more. I share openly about my journey to loving my skin and also take the soapbox to declare why we should never feel unconfident trying on bathing suits. This episode is honest and raw and dives into topics I haven't publicly shared, but highlights the importance of loving who we are, as we are, and becoming our own biggest cheerleader.

The popularization of microtrends, fast fashion, influencer culture, and social media has created a world filled with scary overconsumption habits. How can we manage the ever-growing need to adhere to Planet Earth's livelihood while also having a real conversation about our own habits and their greater impact?

It is always (bold, highlight, underscore, italicize) important to love and take care of your body - but right now truly feels more pressing than ever. Surely I can't be alone in this--oh that's right because I've never had an original thought ever (it's a joke I swear). I'm here to remind you of a little something I like to call the power of the body, how amazing and beautiful it truly is (I'm oozing with gouda here), and putting my foot down on comparative culture.

Does drinking lemon water increase your metabolism? Does intermittent fasting truly help you to lose weight? In the world of influencer marketing and clickbait, we can easily fall into the trap of believing a trend simply because it’s popular, and not actually take the time to do our scientific research on the topic. This week I am joined by the host of the Beauty and the Biotech Beast podcast, Paige Halas, who will help me debunk and UNTWIST some of our favorite fitness trends and myths through the power of scientific research.
