After earning 5thplace in her debut show, she faced the harsh reality of binge eating, grief, and a reverse diet gone wrong. Amber opens up about canceling a prep she wasn't ready for, why slowing down was the best decision, and how she found clarity by refusing to quit—even when it meant stepping back. This one's for every athlete who's ever felt lost after the stage.

Florida has shifted its early season scheduling philosophy in football to provide the Gators a soft opening and enhance their College Football Playoff hopes. Visits from LIU, FAU, South Florida, South Alabama, Campbell and Charleston Southern are a necessary evil, but a hard sell for Edgar while Mark is a bit more forgiving during the latest Swamp Things. Highly coveted transfer guard Boogie Fland's visit, the national championship trip to the White House and a smorgasbord of spring sports also provide plenty to chew on.

After an unsuccessful prep in 2019, she rebuilt herself mentally and physically, competing successfully in two bikini shows in 2024.

Guest: Erin Sarris, Progyny Member Host: Dan Bulger, Progyny   When Erin Sarris and her husband first visited a fertility clinic, they were hit with unexpected news: severe male factor infertility and an immediate recommendation to pursue IVF. What followed was a long, winding, and often painful journey filled with setbacks, from failed cycles to loss and emotional isolation.     Now a mother of three and author of Cupcakes Everywhere: One Sweet Tale of Overcoming Infertility, Erin shares how infertility reshaped her view and inspired a metaphorical children's book that captures the bittersweet reality of struggling to grow a family. This conversation is raw, vulnerable, and ultimately a reminder that even when the path to parenthood is anything but straightforward    For more information, visit Progyny's Podcast page and Progyny's Education page for more resources.

In this powerful assessment of SA's recent political drama, SRF chairman Dr Frans Cronjé suggests we've witnessed a historic watershed where “nice guy” politics finally bit the dust. By succeeding through employing previously absent ruthlessness, he says the Democratic Alliance is sure to enjoy the sensation and likely to adopt a far more aggressive approach in future. That could be exactly what SA needs to reverse destructive economic policy and start turning around a sinking economic ship. He spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

Get ready for laughter, love, and the most unforgettable cupcake story you've ever heard. In our second episode of The Mother Load Mother's Day series, Emilie Reyes and her son Bennett bring all the heart (and hilarity).

In this episode, Michael shares how a disagreement with his wife over a €9 cupcake sparked a deeper conversation about budgeting and money spending. He reflects on his evolving perspective on FIRE now that he's technically financial independence, and how his life is gradually transitioning into semi-retirement. He also discusses insights from a recent financial review with Ronan from Metis Ireland and answers a question he received in a WhatsApp group about being financially independent as a landlord.

Send us a textThis week, Heather is flexing her creativity to create a Cream Egg Cupcake. It's a take on the popular Easter treat, the Cadbury Creme Egg, in cupcake form. They turned out pretty well, after some brainstorming on the approach in the first half of the episode! Plus, Erin and Heather chat about ways to zhuzh-up boxed cake mixes (because sometimes that's handy, right?). At Three Kitchens, we're all about trying something new. Usually we prefer to have a recipe to follow, but what can you do? Sometimes there isn't one. In this case, there was an Instagram video with no recipe, but some vague details provided by helpfulish commenters. Probably not a baking project for an amateur, but what the heck. Let's go. The chocolate cake Heather bakes up for these cupcakes is an easy recipe called One Bowl Chocolate Cake. The ingredients are mixed up together in one bowl (obvs), and then you add a cup of hot water, which makes a thin cake batter. She amped up the chocolate flavour by adding instant coffee to the water. The tops of the cooled cupcakes are then hollowed out to leave room for the cream egg filling. In this case, the filling is a type of marshmallow fondant made by melting marshmallows and mixing in icing sugar until it's a pipe-able consistency. A small amount is coloured to look something like egg yolk, and then it's a game of filling cakes to look a little like a chocolate cream egg. Give this one a try! It actually turned out super cute and it's a fun cupcake for Easter. ~Chocolate Easter Cream Egg Cupcake recipe Three Kitchens Podcast - a home cooking showCheck out our website where you can listen to all of our episodes and find recipes on our blog: www.threekitchenspodcast.comYou can support the show with a small donation at Buy Me A Coffee.Want to be a guest?

Does the young child know that the adults in their lives are planning for the best for them? Caregivers and parents should prayerfully plan the best mental, spiritual, and physical for each child. Take seriously your thought of becoming a caregiver for a child; it will be the most important job you will ever do. Then we interview Gigi Buttler. As a young child, Gigi knew that to succeed, she had to work hard and offer a service that people wanted to buy. At age seven, she sold eggs out of her little red wagon to neighbors. At age fifteen, she bought cleaning supplies and started a cleaning service out of her rural California home.

There you are, listener! This week, we eat hot dogs and colorful cupcakes before discussing Hook (1991). Captain Hook and Smee steal the show and Peter's children. This would be a great movie about the gay power couple named after the fabulous captain. Alas, it's loosely about Peter's need to become a better father. The film has some moments of endearment mixed in with nonconsensual kisses and strange generational love. Watch this film as an adult and you start to see behind the creepy curtain but with a child's eyes, it's bangerang. RIP Rufio.

Send us a textGuest's Fitness JourneyInspired by Ashley Kaltwasser's videos after two years in the gym.Started as a beginner with no athletic background, gained 15 lbs after marriage.Discovered bikini competitions while stationed in Japan with the military, with no social media influence at the time.First Competition ExperienceBegan competing in Germany; lacked stage readiness and had an unfit coach.Struggled with posing and mindset—initially indifferent about placing but later became emotionally invested.Learned it's normal to lose in the first show and not to expect immediate success.Competition History (7 Shows Since 2022)2022: Two shows, lacked proper preparation and results.2023: Competed in Germany, switched to a strict coach 7 weeks out, followed an intense vegetarian egg-white-based diet, and placed 3rd in Texas. Improved posing significantly.2024: Two shows after a 12-week cut, placed 4th in both, including the competitive Republic of Texas show.Lessons Learned & GoalsKey takeaway: Stay consistent with diet and training, no cheating if you want results.Big goal: Earn a Pro Card, grow during the offseason, and continue competing.Key Changes & Support SystemBest improvement: Followed the plan diligently, hired expert posing coaches (Lauren Dannenmiller or Bec from Posing School).Suit color: Aquamarine, perfectly complemented her skin tone.Transitioned careers from photography to vet tech.Training & NutritionCardio peaked at 2 hours/day.Follows a meal plan without focusing on calorie count for better mental adherence.MindsetFocus on enjoying the stage experience rather than obsessing over placing.Accepts the subjectivity of the sport; success requires patience and persistence.Cautions against gambling with shows or coaches—find a reliable support system.Closing MessageEmbrace the journey, celebrate progress, and remain disciplined—it's a marathon, not a sprint.Follow IG: https://www.instagram Welcome to Cupcakes & Protein Shakes, the podcast that gives you the tools and inspiration you need to achieve your fitness and wellness goals.
