Ep 65: 5 Ways To Bring Your Mind Back To A Productive Place Aug 25, 2021

We've all experienced times when we've been distracted by drama, setbacks, and adversity. It can be difficult to reset, and valuable time is lost to anxiety and stress.
In his first solo podcast ("Con-Solo" if you will), Conrad workshops perspective and zeros-in on 5 ways you can bring your mind back to a productive place when faced with unsettling distractions.

Ep 64: 10 Habits From The People I Admire Most Aug 18, 2021

Exercise, music, faith. These are all go-tos that can be used to get you out of your funk when you're feeling down. But there's another category that can help elevate your outlook on life when you need it most - your support group. Loved ones, mentors, influential personalities, and yes, even new Instagram friends, can all be a source of inspiration when your internal light needs a bit of a spark to shine as bright as you need to get through a rough day.
In this podcast, A Girl You Might Know goes solo to highlight the 10 characteristics and habits of people she admires most. From not overthinking things, to being open to new information and ideas, find out what A Girl You Might Know appreciates the most about the important people who surround her and how their actions, beliefs, and methods to approaching life inspire and uplift her on a daily basis.

Ep 63: Do We Ever Really React To Events Or Do We React To Our Opinion Of Those Events? Aug 12, 2021

Do you get stressed out thinking about work on Mondays, but have no issues taking on new projects during the second half of the week... and you're not exactly sure why?
Ponder this for a moment - we aren't really responding to the world around us directly. Instead, we are responding to our interpretation of the world around us using the habitual lenses we've trained ourselves to see through. In this podcast we talk about this phenomenon, known as judgement (no - not, what was Becky thinking wearing that dress, judgement... that's a whole different discussion). Rather, we explore how we see the world and how we interpret the events around us based on pre-conceived judgements. And knowing we do this, is it possible to "retrain your brain" so you react differently? Can you take control of your emotions and attitudes so you are able to find the positive in what you initially judged to be a negative?
Tune in to find out!

Ep 62: Who Are You, Really? An Experiential Approach To Understanding Self Aug 05, 2021

How do you really get to know who you are? In last week’s podcast we spoke with Alexia McLeod, and it revealed during the discussion that one of the most challenging questions she asks her clients is… "Who are you, really?"
If you had to describe yourself in a phrase or two, what would you say? Most people struggle with finding the answer. And when you DO manage to find the words you feel best describe yourself, do you subconsciously wonder if others view you the same way as you see yourself?
In this podcast we dig in and take on a more experiential approach to understanding self by breaking the process down into 5 categories.
1. Childhood or past
2. Life Adversities or challenges
3. Observing Ego
4. Relationships
5. Just be you (Acceptance)

Ep 61: Understanding Yourself & Your Partner Through Psychotherapy, with Alexia McLeod Jul 29, 2021

Conflicts in our relationships - let's face it... they’re uncomfortable, and finding a resolution to issues in a way that makes everyone involved feel better might not always be the first option that comes to mind in the heat of the moment - BUT, we can train ourselves to think this way. Conflicts are a way to truly get to know and communicate with your partner.
HOWEVER, fighting isn’t all we’re talking about in today’s episode. Have you ever thought of the five most important qualities you value in a significant other (whether it’s someone you’re with now, or “Mr/ Mrs. Right” in the future)? What’s more, have you ever considered writing these qualities down on a piece of paper to keep them in your purse or wallet so you are reminded of them when you’re in that honeymoon stage of the relationship?
In this podcast we speak with Alexia McLeod, a licensed psychotherapist who helps clients gain healing from the past, provides motivation for the present, and offers the chance for restoration in the future. Alexia provides insight into how best to approach conflict, how to keep your mind - and in turn, the lines of communication - open, and how to prepare yourself for a better future when moving on from a broken relationship.

Ep 60: Some Of The Best Moments Of Your Life Haven't Even Happened Yet Jul 21, 2021

Some of our favorite podcast episodes include answering questions from you, our thoughtful community, so we're doing it again! Tune in to this week's podcast for an of-the-moment Q & A, and thank you for helping us structure this one!

Do you wish you could free your mind in order to feel complete comfort in your own skin and embrace total acceptance of who you are as a person? If you are shaking your head yes, your next question undoubtedly is… but how does one even begin this journey, let alone achieve the goal?
We are excited to say that we have just the guest for you in this week’s podcast. Known as the Mind Architect, Peter Crone works with athletes, actors, corporations, and everyday individuals to help them step outside of the world they have always known to finally identify what mental constructs have been holding them back in order to change their lives for the better. Learn how you can move from stress to freedom by redesigning your subconscious mind, and awaken the potential within yourself.

Ep 58: Don't Fear Launching A Brand: Exploring Otherland With Female Founder Abigail Cook Stone Jul 07, 2021

Do you have a passion for starting a business, but have been told your idea would never be successful? That's what Abigail Cook Stone experienced when she decided to turn her moderately healthy obsession with candles into her own business. But after she proved there was outside interest in her idea by raising 2.7 million in a seed round and her company began to grow, her detractors started singing another tune.
Abigail firmly believes if you find the right product or service for you, become a subject matter expert on it, and harbor a deeply unshakable conviction that your idea will work, you can materialize a successful outcome. From selling toothbrush bangles as a kid in school to the launch of her luxury candle company, Otherland, hear more about her journey, and find out who and what inspired her along the way.

Changes are coming (and we're not just talking about Rad's hair, although we do talk plenty about the “reversed” coiffed elephant in the room, because well... we have to).

Ep 49: Building a Beauty Empire: Staying True to Yourself, with Bobbi Brown May 05, 2021

Building a business doesn't happen overnight. But safe to say, if you don't start somewhere, it will never happen. A freelance makeup artist early in her career, Bobbi Brown started in the trenches of the beauty industry before working her way to the top of her own business empire. Now a successful entrepreneur, a bestselling author, and a public speaker, Bobbi Brown shows how far a vision and strong work ethic can take you in your career.
In this podcast we discuss Bobbi's new venture, Jones Road, which was born from the idea that every product should be a hero product - that makeup should be clean, and should enhance rather than alter. Bobbi also weighs in on what the idea of beauty means to her, her experiences building - and selling - a company, her internal emotional struggle after stepping away from her namesake business, and most notably, how important it is to stay true to yourself throughout the journey.

Ep 31: 2021 Resolution: Ready to Not Only Survive, But Thrive Dec 30, 2020

2020 made us feel helpless in so many ways.
This past year has forced us to be resilient. It has forced us to adapt. It has forced us to figure out ways to stand up and take charge of situations that appeared, at first, to be totally out of our control.

January 2019 - Conrad covertly reaches out to Hearts On Fire to start the process of designing a custom ring for "A Girl You Might Know" From Conrad asking "A Girl You Might Know" dad permission, to the memorable trip to St. John where a videographer was staying in the same house without "A Girl You Might Know" even knowing - this is the story of our engagement :-)
Know someone who is getting engaged this holiday season? We'd love to help! Tune in to find out more!

Ep 22: HOW DO YOU DETACH? A Deep Dive Into Why Separating Yourself Can Be Helpful for Emotional Health Oct 28, 2020

This year, many of us have been forced to deal with adversity on a daily basis, but there are ways to cope, including the important concept of Detachment. Detachment is neither kind nor unkind - it is simply a means that allows us to separate ourselves from the adverse affects external circumstances can have on our lives. It's letting go of patterns that are causing pain, and developing a new system that gives you emotional freedom.
In this episode we discuss the concept of Detachment through 3 main lenses:
1. Detaching with love
2. What detachment from toxic people and situations where you have little to no influence or control over looks like
3. Detaching from your own personal triggers and emotions
We also announce the winner of our 20th episode giveaway, which ties into this week's new giveaway!

If you have a problem setting personal boundaries, or can't always recognize or successfully adhere to other people's boundaries, you are not alone.

This week we would have been heading to our favorite camp - the Flaming Ugly Cowboy Saloon - to enjoy our third adventure in the desert. This temporary metropolis in Black Rock Desert is dedicated to community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance, and there are so many nuances that make this event special that we could talk for days about it... but we're going to do our best to paint an accurate picture of what it's like for those who have not had the chance to participate. Pull up a comfy camping chair, fill your canteen with some red wine (or beverage of choice on the Playa), and get ready to forget your troubles for just a few minutes while you find some enchantment in our storytelling!
