In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on what a true "summer glow up" means beyond just skincare and fashion tips. While everyone's talking about "becoming unrecognizable by summer," we explore how confidence—not just appearance—is what we're actually striving for when we think about being our best selves.We break down the psychology behind confidence, sharing Mel Robbins' powerful insight that "confidence isn't a feeling, it's the willingness to try." We discuss how we often get this backwards, waiting to "feel confident" before taking action, when research shows confidence is actually built through action—it's the result, not the prerequisite.Through personal stories and evidence-based insights, we explore three dimensions of confidence:Physical Confidence: Beyond just focusing on aesthetic goals, we discuss tracking non-aesthetic wins like strength gains and energy levels. Erin shares how holding herself to a higher standard in daily self-care—especially when no one is looking—fundamentally shifts how she shows up in the world.Social Confidence: We offer practical strategies for navigating social situations with more ease, including the power of genuine curiosity and preparing thoughtful questions. We share the "20 seconds of insane courage" technique that makes putting yourself out there significantly easier.Authentic Confidence: We explore how true confidence emerges when you consistently meet the standards you set for yourself. We discuss the surprising connection between keeping promises to yourself and building unshakable self-trust, along with why doing things that energize you actually creates more confidence than limiting your activities.This conversation challenges the urgency and panic that typical "glow up" content creates, offering instead a thoughtful approach to building lasting confidence that will serve you far beyond just the summer months.If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review the podcast.

In this episode, we dive into one of the biggest financial and lifestyle decisions you'll face in your 20s and 30s: whether to rent or buy your home.As two friends at different stages of our homebuying journeys, we share our personal perspectives and break down the factors that influence this major life decision.Erin shares her recent experience purchasing a new construction home, while Grace discusses her approach to saving for a future purchase while weighing location flexibility. We explore how homeownership represents both a financial and lifestyle choice, examining what factors should influence your decision beyond just the numbers.We cover the critical lifestyle considerations: How certain are you about where you want to live long-term? Do you value the flexibility to move frequently, or are you ready to put down roots? Are you seeking the community aspect of apartment living, or craving more space and privacy?On the financial side, we break down the true costs of homeownership beyond just the mortgage payment—from down payments and closing costs to property taxes, maintenance, and repairs. We discuss whether putting 20% down is necessary (it's not!), and why talking to a lender early can provide valuable clarity even if you're not ready to buy.This conversation moves beyond the oversimplified "renting is throwing money away" argument to examine the genuine pros and cons of each option.We look at how renting offers predictability and flexibility while homeownership provides potential long-term appreciation and protection from rising housing costs.Whether you're actively house-hunting or just beginning to consider homeownership, this episode offers a balanced perspective to help you make the choice that aligns with both your financial goals and lifestyle preferences.If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review the podcast.

Gut health, high cortisol, hormone imbalances, and nervous system regulation—you've seen them all over social media, but (1) why do they happen? and (2) how do you actually address them?

The winter arc trend has been taking over social media, and we wanted to chime in! Here's the premise of the winter arc: Most people tend to slow down at this time of year and wait for the New Year to get back on their habits and routines.

It's a time to focus on your habits, goals, and routines—some of which might be money related.
