    Cheat days and why we hate them

    Do you have to have a cheat day in order to stay on a healthy eating plan? We think the word "cheat" is too negative, so we want to change mentality around food. If you're hoping to get healthy or change your eating habits, cheat days can bring you down. Instead, focus on the quality of food, your emotional relationship with it, and if you want to indulge, just do it!   If you need support getting healthy, the doctors are in!

What has it done for us so far?   How are we mentally 22 years old but physically feel 80?   How does physical fitness help you heal?   This episode talks about our first step toward feeling healthy and well, and why it's so hard for women to be empowered in this journey.   Age well with us!

    You know those topics, the ones that no one tells you about when you're in your young 20's - health after 40, the hardships of parenthood, how much bs you'll put up with in life? We're going to talk about all of it.    We're going to air our dirty laundry, metaphorically speaking, and we're going to live our life to the fullest (usually with bourbon). We're going to talk about the things that make us phenomenal women, but we're not going to shy away from the things that break our spirits.   We want to walk with you through the nitty gritty path we call life, and we want to bring awareness and empowerment to you all.   This is a podcast by women, for women. Nothing is off limits.
