This week we get into some reminiscence about what life is truly about... Are you feeling like adulting is HARD AF LATELY?! Like, being in your 20s with this housing market, economy, and cancel culture has been a whirlwind to navigate and has definitely taken a toll on our day to day. We talk about how its important in the midst of this to focus on the small wins like making your bed, saving a couple $100 a week, booking that trip finally. We also discuss finding happy in the mundane tasks like browsing the grocery store, eating with nonno and nonna, etc. Its hard to recognize these things when you're swept up in stressors and hustle culture. We also talk about Red & Green Flags-- ordering for you at a restaurant? Showing up to your work?.. yay or nay? This and so much more on this weeks episode!!

In this Rant Episode: Embracing Play in Adulthood Our main focus for this episode revolves around a topic that's often overlooked - the significance of holding onto our inner child as we navigate the realms of adulthood.

This week we have OUR FAV people on the pod, our boyfriends Roman and Francy! Of course we get into our weekly updates... Rome and Sam go into a debate that frequents their household: why doesn't Sam like blockbuster/Oscar award winning movies?!?!?! Then we get into the good stuff-- navigating life changes can be hard & sometimes when you feel like your life isn't going in a positive direction, small steps to change different areas of your life, GRADUALLY, is what will make a difference. Francy tells us about how he navigated all the noise/opinions around him while. From being unemployed for months to eventually landing his dream job and ultimately transforming other areas of his life as well. Plus, we get into a wellllll needed debate about the extent to which partners should discuss past traumas, relationships and issues they've had with their current partner. What matters to one may not matter to the other, but that is why it is important to communicate these things. The boys give their opinion on it! Its a good one!

We're back with a rant- and boy did we need it after the week(s) we've had. On this weeks episode we talk grief & loss after losing somebody really close to us, it's okay to have different grieving styles but its not okay to push your emotions (or lack thereof) onto someone else. We also get into our favourite products and things we can't live without, which goes in an interesting direction. Should you be submissive to your man in exchange for security and protection? When is it NOT okay to go out without your significant other? Your friend is a chronic cheater, does this make you more inclined to cheat?

This week, we have one of our own in the Hot Seat. We got Fran sitting down to get grilled with some vulnerable questions to really help us get to know who she is to her core. From her professional/career development to her self-growth journey, Fran doesn't hold back. I ask her some hard-hitting questions such as how a parent separation has or hasn't impacted her journey into adulting and how past relationships have shaped the way she views current ones. You know how we are, all fun & banter and less on the emotional side, so this episode even helped me to get to know more about how Fran views life in a deeper more personal way. Let us know your thoughts on these types of episodes— we love to interview other interesting people on here, but hey, we're kinda interesting too!

We're back with a Roman rants video. In today's episode we talk the things we do that piss other people off, when to step away from a heated argument, keeping the spark alive when living with your partner, getting out of the "roomate" phase in relationship and healthy boundary setting. When do boundaries become a way of trying to "control" the other person? Keep it real with us on: Instagram @keepingitcento | @samcentofante | @francescaacento TikTok @keepingitcento

We're back with a rant. On this week's episode we talk weekly updates- Fran's terrifying flight scare and Sam's interesting Walmart experience. We get into our OPINIONS and thoughts about the recent conversations about the trans-community in women's spaces, women sport and the what is a "woman" debate. Getting deep, we talk about feminine vs masculine energy. Why do we feel the need to be logical, assertive in control rather than embracing our emotions and letting things flow. Why does our feminine energy sometimes seem to be overpowered by the masculine? How do you find a balance? All this and more on this weeks pod!

Welcome backkk! This week we sit down and have a candid convo with Mel, aka, Fran's best friend. We talk about getting married 'early' and what that really means + societal opinions surrounding marriage in your early twenties. We also discuss mental health and our experiences with anxiety medication as well as other healing mechanisms. Sam also recalls some trauma when it comes to her first experiences with panic attacks and anxiety & how it plays into who she is today, while Mel gets candid about how she has coped/healed her anxiety for most of her teens and adult life. This episode truly felt like a bff sleepover chat LOL! By the end of it we totally forgot we were even in studio. So sit back, grab a lil snacky snack and come chat with us.

We're back with a new episode! On this week, Fran's New fav Show "Alone" sparks an interesting convo.. how long do you think you can REALLY survive in the wilderness? We get into some relationship topics when Sam came across someone saying that the "rough patch" in their relationship made the relationship grow stronger. But how do you know if its a rough patch or just a toxic relationship... and when is it time to let go? To end the episode, we talk a bit about how shows need to STOP romanticizing emotional cheating... it is just as bad as physically cheating. What are your thoughts?

Helooooo KIC fam-- Welcome back. This weeks episode was truly like a mini therapy session. We talk through some vulnerable topics that have been absolutely consuuuuming our thoughts lately. Like, do you ever feel that immense guilt when it comes to resting/doing nothing because of the pressure society/we put on ourselves? Also, gone are the days of partying every weekend on King West w/ booths and bottles--- we are fullllly welcoming new, invigorating, energetic experiences into our lives that really make us feel connected and alive. Sam reveals some thoughts she's been struggling with when it comes to letting go of expectations shes had for herself all her life... She realizes that setting herself up to such a high standard doesnt allow her to enjoy the journey along the way. Fran reveals why shes been self conscious in the gym since being back after 6 months & some tips on how to build up that positive/healthy lifestyle again, not based on aesthetic. Tune in!

Welcome back fam. This weeks ep is all about self-love & nurturing our emotions and boy oh boy was it an emotional one... apparently theres a new moon vibe & its getting everyone in their energetic feels. Like, literally we've been crying every single day! This emotional release, so to speak, leads us to some clarity with regards to whats REALLY triggering these emotions deep down. We get vulnerable about our sibling issues... whats it like feeling as though you need to be the perfect leader as the older sibling of the fam... and whats it like feeling like you need to follow in someone else's footsteps as the youngest? All this and more! Sam also gets a mini therapy sesh from Roman and Fran about how she should work on cutting outttt her people pleasing & start focusing on what SHE truly wants.. and Fran lets us in on some rllllly amazing words of wisdom from a new personal development book shes reading. Is the easy way out sometimes the right way in to something else? Food for thought...

IT' A RANT. Join us on this week's episode where we sit down and vent. Is it normal to go through an identity crisis when you're in your 20's? Sometimes there's a disconnect between what you're doing, and what your soul ACTUALLY wants to do. Do you want to work corporate when there's a social push to be an entrepreneur? Why can't you do both? We also touch upon how being too kind can come back and bite you and how it is OK to not look "perfect" all the time and let loose- you aren't expected to always be professional. We also get into our thoughts on a viral tiktok...enjoy!

On this weeks episode we're joined by our boyfriends roman and francy for our first rant of 2023! Chat GPT and AI is shaking up the tech world and we get a little bit into it. Is AI making people lazy? will AI take the meaning out of jobs? Will AI take over our jobs? We're kinda nervous ngl. We also discuss if degrees and school in general are useless in todays world as social media is the new norm and being an 'influencer when i grow up' is what kids seem to be aiming for these days! Finally we get the guys' opinion on why a high percentage of men prefer the "natural no makeup" girl. What does that even mean!!? LET US KNOW WHAT U THINK

Today we sit down with Energy Healer and Psychic Medium, Samantha (aka, spokenoccult)... and boy, did we get deep on a spiritual level. Of course we had some girl chats about some weekly updates and what the TikTok hot goss is before we really got into. We talk about what a psychic medium really is... can she SEE ghosts? Can she talk to our loved ones? How does she tap into energy and what does ones energy really mean. Sam even lets us know that many of us have these intuitive and psychic abilities, we just need to be open to learning how to tap into it. We even get a LIVE tarot card reading and we were shook!! Also--- the crystal craze. Everyone on social media is obsessed with crystals, but how can they really be beneficial to us and our energy's? Sam lets us know!

This week Roman joins as a third co-host to banter about all things moving out. We're all so excited as young adults to buy our first homes or move out on our own, but no one really talks about the mental toll it takes, not in terms of finances, but in terms of actually getting used to your new surroundings. We also get into the Balenciaga story and in general, why do people start posting online about 'hot topics' pretending to care... are you really ashamed of this designer brand or are you just taking a picture of yourself throwing out the $1200 pair of Balenciaga shoes you already bought to SHOW Instagram that you care. We also try international snacks PART 2. All this and more

We're with Dr. Morgan this week who is an amazzzzing relationship coach and expert in all things relating to attachment styles. We get deep into how our romantic relationships and even our sister relationships are affected by the way we each handle communication as well as how we approach situations. Dr. Morgan helps us to distinguish between securely attached and anxiously attached styles and how to respond to certain situations based on your partners identified styles. We also discuss the most important relationship of them all... thats your relationship to self. Do you ever feel like you are so busy catering to other peoples needs, making sure your other relationships are in good places that you leave very little space for your deepest desires, aka, not fueling yourself up? I know that feeling all to well.... let's see what Dr. Morgan has to say about that. PLUS she gives us some expert tips on how to identify things that happen in your day to day that may trigger mood changes. At the end of the day these tips help you to look back on the different activities or occurrences that brought up your happy, angry, sad, etc. mood---ultimately helping with overall mindfulness and taking care of yourself!!

On this weeks episode, Roman is back for a Roman's rant video. We talk about the rollercoaster of emotions when buying a first home and leaving your childhood home for the first time. We also take an attachment style quiz. Do you ever feel like you cant sympathize with other people emotions, or youre too heavily relied on, or you get defensive when other people point out something youve done wrong? Our results may resonate with you. Plus we try cool international snacks and rate them 1/10, grab some snacks and join us!

We're back with another episode and this week we get pretty heated! Fran is late to the game, but her new Game Of Thrones obsession sparked an interesting conversation about the worst T.V show characters to exist. Who do you think takes spot #1? We also get into the topic of relationship jealousy and setting boundaries. Why do some of us feel the NEED to be the "chill girlfriend"? Is there a certain amount of jealousy in a relationship that can be considered 'healthy'? How can we respect our partners wants yet also set boundaries to protect ourselves and our needs? We are NOT experts.. but tune into the convo and let us know what ya think.

We're back with a rant! On this weeks episode we discuss the great and not so great shows happening on netflix right now… would you go on a dating show with your sibling? Weird? Not weird? idk.. In honour of Sams bday month, she dives into 6 key lessons she's learned in the last year...including the realization that not everyone will treat you or certain situations with the same amount of care/respect as you. Sometimes its hard to come to terms with things like this, but that is the only way you won' harbour resentment... what do you think!? Also, do you ever wonder why you're still tired, even after 8+ hours of sleep!? You're body actually needs multiple types of rest... more than just the typical 8 hours a night type of thing. Millionaires use the rest methods we talk about in this weeks episode to keep them at their sharpest.. listen & find out...
