    Today’s episode is a very important one. Today's special guest is Ranie Evans.

    Ranie Evans courageously shares her journey losing her son Branden, who died by suicide just a few short years ago. Her sister Collette Brunson also joined Kirsten for this difficult discussion. Ranie talks us through the heartache no parent ever wants to experience……

    Through the darkness, she decided to create more light. She shares how she started her nonprofit organization BE TREE...Committed to raising awareness around Mental Health and creating connection through community. Ranie is dedicated to talking openly about mental health. Talking is the first step. She shares her experience freely with others. She teaches at schools, as well as brings people together for yoga, while having therapists and resources available for those in need. Ranie is doing amazing things!!

    Ranie shares the story how Branden had carved into an Aspen tree the “Life and HIPS”. She later found out what it meant: “Life & Hidden in plain sight”. He was fiercely loved with a beautiful life; yet, felt hidden in plain sight.

    +How can you support someone struggling?

    +What can you do if you are having feelings of hopelessness?

    +How can you explore the beauty of breath and being still

    +How does yoga help process emotions? How has it helped Ranie?

    +Where to find support?

    +How does grief change you?

    +What are things you can do to help those grieving

    This episode is for everyone! Ranie shares so many wonderful ideas we can all do right now to help our own mental health.

    KEEP GOING…..We need YOU here.

    You are NOT alone. No feeling is bigger than you.

    “Here I am and there I always was”

    This episode is Dedicated to Branden Evans.

    We would love if you could tag be_tree_foundation on instagram everytime you see a beautiful tree and are reminded of Branden's story...reminder of the ripple affects of his life and the impact he has helping others. Thank you.

    Loving & Leaving Aug 17, 2023

    Do you have a child who has recently left home for college or are you finding yourself an empty nester? This episode is for you!!

    Kirsten and Jen talk all about how to let your kids leave home and spread their wings. Jen shares her experience with her two oldest leaving and Kirsten talks about her oldest making this transition as well. As usual Jen is dropping some GOLD nuggets you don't want to miss.

    This phase of life comes with all the FEELS....

    ___________________________

    As adult children leave the home and transition into independent lives, it's a significant moment for both parents and children. Here are some pieces of advice for parents during this transition:

    Embrace Change, Maintain Communication, Respect Their Independence, Offer Emotional Support, Celebrate Their Achievements, Create New Traditions, Foster Your Own Interests, Maintain Healthy Boundaries, Seek Support, Focus on Your Relationship, and Stay Positive.

    Instead of dwelling on the empty nest, focus on the positive aspects of this transition. Reflect on the successful upbringing you provided and the exciting possibilities that lie ahead for both you and your children.

    Remember that every family is unique, and this transition will unfold in its own way. By approaching it with understanding, support, and a positive attitude, you can navigate this phase while strengthening your relationships with your adult children.

    High Point Market! May 30, 2023

    Kirsten is back with a guest, friend, and colleague to talk all about High Point Market! Kirsten & Kristy both own their own Interior Design Firms and thought it would be fun to share the inside scoop on their recent work trip to High Point, North Carolina. They share all the details on what exactly is High Point Market and why they invest in going each year. They also chat about "celebrity" influencers/designers that go and what Interior Design Trends they saw, and why there really is something for every "style". _________________________________________ More on today's guest Kristy Weyhrich:

    Kristy spent the last 25 years working as a graphic designer to create great branding for businesses and now she is turning her attention to helping individuals with their personal brands — manifested in unique interiors and styling.

    She also draw on her degree in art and architectural history (Bryn Mawr College), her design degree (California College of the Arts) and four years working in San Francisco-based architecture firms to create memorable and meaningful spaces for living and working.

    Kristy is not all business. She has a great sense of humor, an empathetic approach and really treasures the relationships that she builds with her clients.

    She grew up in Boise and I lives there with her husband Josh and menagerie of two dogs and two cats.

    Slowing Down Apr 20, 2023

    We are back!! Monique (the french lady) joined Kirsten in this oh so good episode talking about the concept of slowing down. What does it mean to "Live Slowly?"

    In todays world we are always told to want more, do more, be more, have more....and only then will we be happy. How can we take simple steps to slow down whatever phase of life we are in?

    Monique talks about her health diagnosis that forced her to make changes in her life. She shares with us her inspiration for her instagram account called Motustardus- which means slow in Latin. She says, "Life brought me exactly what I needed".

    Kirsten shares about a book she read recently that talks about this concept called 'Chasing Slow'. In it the auther says," Many of us have come to a point in life where we feel weary. We have burdened ourselves with possessions, packed social calendars, busy work schedules- loads that are far too heavy to carry-yet we grip them with clenched hands."

    Maybe we need to stop trying to paddle fast enough to outswim our sadness.

    It's Never Too Late! | Kathi Holzer Mar 30, 2023

    Today Jen and Kirsten interview a special guest!

    At age 60 Kathy Holzer:

    A competitive athlete turned PE teacher and coach for over 30 years- in a quest for creativity, picked up a keyboard, which led to a $2.50 watercolor set, which led to her discovering that she was an artist.

    As an artist she has learned how to practice living without judgment,

    Create without the fear of failure,

    And the discipline of learning the technical aspects of art.

    All while giving back to the community and inspiring others to do the same.

    “To become human is to become visible. “

    To put your art out into the world is to become highly visible.

    We want to hear your takeaways from this episode.

    Let us know!

    You can find Kathi and her beautiful art on instagram HERE

    Girlfriends & Time Away Mar 23, 2023

    Monique is here (recording from France!) with Kirsten talking all about the importance of spending time with girlfriends and time for yourself.

    When we can prioritize connecting with other women in a deep and meaningful way, we share, unwind, and can breathe deeply for a moment...taking the weight off of our chest.

    Women are so often the heart of the home, pouring so much of themselves into their homes, children, significant others, work, etc. It can get heavy at times.

    We need longer time blocks where we have NOTHING to take care of but ourselves. Time that we think only of ourselves. This is how we recharge and are filled back up again to give more fully and from a good place.

    Why does it seem so hard for women to take the time away?

    Why do we struggle to let go of our responsibilities?

    The kids and family WILL survive without you and teaching your kids to be self sufficient is a good thing.

    Being able to transport yourself away from your normal everday life is important for renewal....Having a moment to have your own thoughts, listen, and be quiet.

    Women understand women and the loads we carry, with much compassion for each other.

    Don't forget the importance of making an effort with friendships. Priorize taking time for friends!

    Running away to the French Riviera Mar 15, 2023

    Have you ever wondered what a girls trip to the French Riviera would be like?

    Join us today as Monique shares about her latest vacation with her girlfriends to the Riviera. She lives just a short drive from the either coast. How would that be?!

    We talk French vacations. July & August are months to avoid the Mediterranean because of all the travelers. The Irish, the Germans, the Danish, etc. all go at this time for their summer vacations.

    Monique and her girlfriends visited villas, gardens, terraces, a rock hill medieval village perched high(Eze), and more. They even ventured over the border to Italy for some Italian hot chocolate. (think creamy and super thick)

    Tea time, shopping, flower market, and sight seeing. (The Riviera is all about the ocean views)

    Vacations are very important to the French...3 weeks in the summer with the family and short girls trips as often as possible...Taking time for yourself is prioritized. They are so great at "Chilling"

    Monique will be here again for the next 2 episodes!

    Expectations & the Enneagram Mar 01, 2023

    Today Gina (breakup and relationship coach) is talking with Kirsten about expectations in relationships.

    Do we ALL really want to learn more about relationships? ...hehe

    What expectations should we have or not have?

    What enneagram types have the highest expectations?

    Are expectations for men the same as women?

    Setting expectations in advance is important in relationships. Then re-evaluate regularly.

    *Next time with Gina we will be talking about the struggles for each type*

    Reach out if you would like to be on our upcoming series where we interview someone from each different Enneagram type.

    What Now? After Betrayal | Jessica Frew Feb 15, 2023

    Kirsten had such a great time welcoming back former guest Jessica Frew! (Episode #23!)

    They talk about the massive impact she has been able to have by sharing her story on her successful podcast "Husband in Law” that she records with her husband, Matt, and her ex-husband, Steve. On it they are share their stories of love, marriage, coming out, divorce, remarriage and co-parenting to help others know they are not alone.

    Jessica shares with Kirsten some behind the scenes about the start of her podcast and how and why it started...they talk about how men sharing their feelings openly (along with Jessica) is not typical, but very empowering.

    She now is devoted to helping people figure out the “What NOW?!” after betrayal. Jessica is a firm believer that by knowing and understanding what it is you really want in life you can BOLDly create a life you love, no matter what your circumstances.

    Even if you have not been "betrayed" in the typical way by an affair, there are so many other small betrayals to heal from....even betrayal of self!

    Bienvenue Monique Nov 30, 2022

    Sharing Her Journey is SO excited to welcome Monique Hale to the podcast as one of our permanent MONTHLY co-hosts. This woman has lived many lives...both in America and France. She is admirable in so many ways, and has handled her journey with grace and beauty. Oh, and she is kindly blunt and funny too!

    Monique was born and raised in France with many brothers and sisters. She was raised in a strict home where her father exposed her to nature, art, architecture, and travels. Her mother encouraged her and her siblings in all of their ambitions. After high school, she spent a year in America...which she had always wanted to discover! Monique then decided to stay and pursue studies in Interior Design. {This is where she meets Kirsten:}

    After spending nearly 2 decades in the USA, she moved back home to France so her children would grow in her beautiful culture and language. After leaving her husband, she stayed in France because of the great support system she has there.

    Monique loves to express herself through art by drawing, taking pictures, composing floral arrangements, or decorating interiors.

    Each decade of life, has brought its own set of challenges and truths. Her forties have been the most revealing years.

    Monique also invests in small real estate properties in France, to plan for the future and she has created her own line of textiles.

    Turning a Challenge into a Movement | Annie Tevelin Oct 12, 2022

    We just loved our conversation with Annie! She is genuine, open, and oh so wise.

    Annie Tevelin is an entrepeneur, and founder of Skin Owl. Her skin care line was created as a result of her own journey with cystic acne. Instead of going on Accutane, she went back to school to study Cosmetic Chemistry and began formulating products that eventually healed her skin. What was originally a journey to help her skin eventually became the catalyst to helping hundreds of others with their most stubborn skin issues. If Annie had never had acne, she never would have created SkinOwl.

    +We dive deep into Annie's journey to creating skin owl.

    +Her why for moving to Boise from LA.

    +Her passion for bringing people together in conversation

    +How her podcast 'OFF the Record' brings meaningful conversation into the world.

    +We are so inspired by her Parliament Project! (She created an intimate in person dinner series to aid and reestablish each individual's connection with themselves.)

    +If you live in the Boise area you MUST go get pampered in her store!

    How Understanding YOUR Enneagram # is FUN and Impactful | @enneagramashton Aug 03, 2022

    *This episode is a re-release* with new bonus thoughts and takeaways from Kirsten & Alexis in the begining and end.

    We wanted our new listeners and others who may have missed this one, to have a foundation of what the enneagram is all about in preparation for our FIRST in-person event! We could not be more excited about this happening in Meridian, ID. on September 9th. We talk about more details in the podcast. We hope to meet some of our local listeners at this event and also introduce new people to the enneagram!

    ____________________________________________________________

    What is the Enneagram anyway?

    It is a system of personality typing that describes patterns in how people interpret the world and manage their emotions. It is essentially what motivates you versus your behavior. It has 9 personality types and maps each of these on a diagram.

    The original episode is with Collette, Nicole, Kirsten, and enneagram expert Ashton Whitmoyer-Ober. (She has become even more famous since our interview last year thanks to our friend Glennon Doyle!)

    -She talks about how to use the enneagram as a TOOL to become a better version of yourself. It can help you realize why you (and others) do things the way that they do. We can use it to grow into who we were created to be and improve realtionships.

    Conversations: Learning to Observe | Alexis Morgan Jun 08, 2022

    In this Come Home and Talk Series conversation, Alexis takes Kirsten through the part of a conversation where she can learn to observe is she feels safe or not. Knowing if you feel safe in the conversation means...do I feel comfortable being honest, why or why not? Does the other person feel safe to share? This skill is called Learning to Look. It's one that often overlooked, but it's ESSENTIAL if you want to learn HOW to have hard conversations.

    (And from our experience, life is learning about HOW to have conversations---the easy, the hard, and all parts inbetween).

    Learning to notice body cues, emotions, physical responses in ourselves is a key part in determining HOW to proceed when we've entered a hard conversation.

    The other part of this process is learning to understand the other person's behavior.

    What does it mean when my teen goes silent?

    What does it mean when my co-worker starts trying to control the conversation or collaboration experience?

    How do I proceed when my spouse is clearly upset? What can I say to help?

    We hop you come join the conversation.

    AND...we have some amazing upcoming events. Go to our private FB group to sign up for them. Fun fact--nearly ALL events are free.

    The Power of Yet | Alexis Morgan Feb 09, 2022

    Welcome to the first episode of our new series called "Come Home & Talk".

    We explain in more detail what this is all about in this episode. We are very excited to be sharing more of our very own personal "specific skill set" with you all!

    Don't all women need better communication skills and home design tips?! YES, please.

    We jump right in with Alexis talking about the power of the word YET.

    When you find yourself in a situation where you don’t know how to do something, or you haven’t accomplished what you desire…it’s: I don’t know how to do that YET. I haven’t accomplished that YET.

    It is possible. You can get there!

    Remember some things take time to learn and are worth waiting and working towards.

    The word YET makes something achievable. It puts the you back in the driver seat of your life.

    Alexis shares some personal examples where she has applied this concept. It is so helpful to start expanding our thinking. She helps us think about how to change our thinking from can't to can. This concept can sometimes be hard for adults set in their ways

    **Challenge this week to add the word 'yet' and see how it deeply impacts your life!

    Aging Your Way Jan 26, 2022

    Ripped from the headlines: Golden Girls vs. Sex and the City Reboot ('And Just Like That'). What does being golden today really look like? A photo comparing the two groups of women got this discussion going!

    We chat about going gray young and why more women (Kirsten included!) are embracing their gray hair. Sarah Jessica Parker has recently joined the gray club as well.

    Aging: the cultural fight vs being you!

    We feel media needs more Representation of women aging. Those trying to age gracefully love seeing people our age who look like us. (wrinkles and all)

    Alexis shares some scientific data with aging. We talk about the BILLION dollar anti-aging industry.

    There are some Pro-Aging "Ambassadors" starting to appear on instagram these days.

    Paulina Porizkova is a former model who said, "I believe our aging faces and bodies are not caving ceilings that need to be fixed. It's only a different kind of beauty which is not quite accepted or seen. It's a kind of beauty to be celebrated and embraced for its change. We all have personal preferences, but it doesn’t negate the beauty of each. We must applaud one another."

    @paulinaporizkov @silverstrandsofglitter

    **We want to reiterate that we feel you should do exactly what makes you feel best about yourself.

    *Let's not forget AGEING is a privilege

    As always we close with our question: Who is a woman past or present, that has impacted your life and HOW?

    Mental Illness & Me | Katie Davies Jan 19, 2022

    We loved our interview with Katie Davies! Her journey is a beautiful one of self acceptance and learning to live with her mental illness.

    We talk about her OCD/PD/GAD and Scrupulosity.

    How to recognize signs, the spectrum of differences in OCD diagnosis, how to support those with the illness. We learn about Exposure Therapy and how she used this specific type of treatment.

    We discuss how to help mental health awareness go "from a whisper to a song" and how talking openly and freely is so important.

    Katie shares about her wedding being postponed, twice. Two were canceled. One permanently, one from covid. She shares how hard this was for her and how she handled the circumstances.

    We chat about life as a single lady in a culture that encourages marriage. She shares her experience of "35 dates by 35". (You will not believe what one guy did on a date!)

    Katie shares what it's like going from working full time as a choir teacher, single and living in Salt Lake City...to a married lady, in a rural Wyoming community to a step mom of 4. She transitioned to being SAHM and now has a new little baby boy!

    We love all she does advocating for mental health awarness by sharing on her podcast, "Mental Health & Me". She talks about how starting the podcast helped to foster healing and bring hope to others.

    Katie has always felt supported by her family through her Mental Health Journey. She has an instagram account where her and her 2 sisters share how to have a JOYOUS, HEALTHY, & HAPPY life. We talk about the time they had an IG Reel goes viral. (Another funny story!)

    ______________

    About Katie:

    Katie Houston Davies was raised in Southern California. She completed her bachelor’s degree in music education with a minor in English education at Brigham Young University in 2008 following an 18 month church mission to Brazil. Upon graduation, she began teaching junior high school choir in Provo, Utah and moved to high school choir in Salt Lake City in 2011. In 2015, she completed her master’s degree in music education at the University of Utah. Outside of teaching, she performed with various choirs in Utah including the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square and did vocal directing for community musicals. In 2018, she did an intensive Exposure Response Therapy program to treat her lifelong OCD illness and it changed her life completely. In 2019, she met her future husband online and moved to Wyoming to start their lives together in 2020, right at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and became a stepmom of 4 handsome young men. During the beginning of the pandemic, she began a podcast for people to share their experiences with mental illness as a way to cope with her mental health problems. She got a job as an elementary music teacher for one year before giving birth to her son Rowan in July of 2021.

    Understanding your Desires and how they're influencing your Life Jan 12, 2022

    In this episode we discuss Desire and why it is so important as women to determine our own personal desires.

    Esther Perel says, "Desire is a fundamental human experience that we want to be present in our lives, and when we lose it, we lose an important connection with ourselves. Living without desire is like living without hope or inspiration."

    How do we go about understanding Desire?

    What is it, and what is it not?

    How do we differentiate our desires from our family's?

    How can we discover what our desires are?

    How are our needs different than our desires?

    We also talk a little about the 2 types of sexual desire and the differences in men and women: Responsive vs Spontaneous

    Join the conversation and leave asking yourself what you Desire!

    Home for the Holidays Nov 24, 2021

    Protecting our peace of mind during the holidays is so important. Let's all get that picture out of your mind of how things are "supposed to be" and just let them be. Yeah we know....easier said than done!

    In this episode Kirsten and Alexis share some experiences and discuss how they have chosen to let go of expectations (of self and others) and how to be flexible with the holiday "shoulds".

    What are some of your traditions that you keep and which do you let go? How do you navigate spending time with two families in one city during the holidays? How do you create new memories within your immediate family? What is important and what is not? How do you involve your kids? What are things you might struggle with saying no to?

    So remember... acceptance, boundaries, compromise, and good communication are how you stay sane and joyful during this time of year!

    May you all have a wonderful and enjoyable Holiday Season. XOXO

    Why do so many of us struggle to trust our inner knowing? Why do we sometimes rely on others for answers to our own questions? Why do good therapists not tell you what to do, but let you figure it out on your own? Why do women so often feel under qualified, or find it hard to try new things?

    In this episode Alexis & Kirsten get personal and talk about why we are so passionate about our new hashtag #inherwetrust and why you should be too. Once you can truly trust yourself you will be unstoppable. Tag us on social media and let us know!

    Brittany has been through some major hardships in her life. She has come out strong, brave, courageous, and learning she has always been good enough! Her story has many twists and turns. She has been through SO much!!

    Lots of scary life events from a brain tumor, cervical cancer, coping with a serious accident her dad was in, being in 2 very abusive relationships, to even being kidnapped.

    In 2017 she was crying on her living room floor wishing her life would end. When her life finally unravelled in 2018 and she was left for another woman, she chose the greatest victory of all.. learning how to love the woman looking in the mirror, and she turned her dreams into a reality.

    It was a long journey to learn to love herself. After all she went through she was so afraid to trust herself again, because she had believed so many lies in her relationships. At times she was made to think all the problems were hers. She would question why she was not good enough in those relationships...what she learned was she is always good enough.

    Brittany Alysia is now the owner/founder of Make Life Your Bitch. As an online coach she teaches female entrepreneurs from around the world, how to use the power of their story to create and market a business they love. You can find more about her here

    Have you ever wondered where things all began and how couples start dating and then eventually ended up together? Everyone has "their" story.

    Well, since it's close to Valentine's Day we thought it would be fun to share our dating stories and how we ended up with our hubbies, and eventually married so many year ago! How did it begin, who tried the hardest, who played hard to get, who was engaged previously, who wrote letters to each other for 2 years, and more!

    We even learned a few new things about each of us that we didn't know before recording!!

    It's great to take a walk down memory lane and remember it all.

    The three of these young guys (our hubbies) had some patience, some romance, and big hearts to win us over!

    Age Positivity...Better with Botox? Jan 27, 2021

    Is life better with Botox?? In this week’s episode, we talk all about aging gracefully. So many of us are obsessed with looking young.

    Is social media increasing our need to compare to those we see around us? If everyone uses a face filter and that is all we see and compare to our selves then we aren't comparing reality to reality. We must stop comparing and be ourselves.

    If you feel more confident with a bit of filler and Botox, you do you. If you want to grow out and embrace your grays you do you. Listen along as we tackle this sticky subject!

    Showing Up Imperfectly | Jenna Kutcher Dec 09, 2020

    What better way to celebrate our ONE YEAR Podcast anniversary then with none other than Jenna Kutcher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    She does not do many podcast interviews, so we were truly honored and excited to have her share her incredible journey with us!

    If you don't know Jenna...you need to. She is a wife, mama, host of the extremely successful podcast 'The Goal Digger', and online marketing expert who teaches others how to make a living doing what they love.

    Jenna is one of the most inspiring women we have had the pleasure to interview. She is so down to earth and what you see is truly what you get.

    We chat about the secret to a happy marriage and some things her and her husband do to continue growing on their own, while still choosing one another.

    We talk about her obsession with creating legacy by documenting her life by capturing all the moments on camera. (Jenna actually got her start in the wedding photographer business!)

    She shares how she has confidence in her body and inspires others to also. Instead of being at war with her body, she would rather put her energy into loving herself.

    Jenna shares her experiences with her miscarriages, pregnancy, and how she's planning for the future.

    We talk about her fears, and the work/life balance myth, how motherhood has impacted her, and more!

    We especially loved the story shared about her breast-feeding at a table of powerhouse business men without any apologies.

    She answers some fun questions like what her "pump-up" song is, tells us about her tattoos, her favorite podcast interview, her dream interviews, and the reason behind the color orange she always wears! (It is the sweetest reason ever)

    Jenna is as real as they come, which is clearly why she is such a successful woman loved by thousands. We were incredibly inspired and motivated by her and know that you will be too.

    What is Slow Fashion | Delee Cox Nov 11, 2020

    When it comes to fashion really all have the same problem... Closets full of clothes and nothing to wear! Right?!!

    Wardrobe stylist Delee taught us what slow fashion is and how to implement it in our lives and closets.

    Slow fashion is a mindset shift. Look at your closet. How do you wear your clothes? How do you care for your clothes? AND how do you discard those clothes? Do you consume consciously?

    We talked about 3 ways to find our personal style like Stacey London:

    1. Comfort. What makes us feel comfortable in our skin what works best for your body and lifestyle.
    2. Style. How to make proportions work for our body style things in a while to look current and stylish.
    3. Self-expression. What message do these clothes say? Embrace your body and there is beauty in being yourself.

    Who is ready to overhaul your closet now?

    You can find more of Delee over at @thestylistnextdoor_ut

    Delete also recommends watching the documentary the "True Cost" on amazon prime to learn even more.

    We will also be adding a list of all her favorite places to shop sustainable fashion in our private Facebook group.

    Journaling: Because Mindset Matters! Oct 28, 2020

    Can Journaling be therapeutic self-care? YES!

    In this episode we talk about our experiences with journaling and how life changing it can be!

    Pen in hand, writing out all the thoughts, the dreams, & the heartache can be very cathartic. Who would have thought putting thoughts on paper could be so powerful?! When we write things down they become true.

    Journaling has been shown to reduce stress, increase memory, and keep thoughts and memories organized. Being able to look back on your growth can be exciting and rewarding.

    Journal your LIFE into existence!

    Ripple Effect | Shauna Sauer Oct 21, 2020

    Shauna Sauer is a Mom to 5 and Nonna to 3 grandkids with 2 more on the way. She has experienced much in her life including the divorce of her parents, losing her dad to suicide, becoming a step-mom, starting her own business with her husband, and graduating college with 3 small kids. All of these experiences prepared her for her biggest challenge, which happened in 2012 when she lost her oldest daughter in a texting and driving accident. Taylor Sauer was headed home from college when she decided to start texting and posting on social media. Her final post read, "Driving and Facebooking is not safe, haha." The accident got a lot of media attention, which in turn helped the Sauer Family change the laws about texting and driving in Idaho with the state recently passing a Hands Free law. Since the accident Shauna has shared her story with hundreds at schools, companies, driver's ed classes, church groups, and many others. She continues to share the story of how Taylor's decision to use her phone affected her family and hopes to change how people both young and old view this deadly addiction. Texting and driving creates a ripple effect...But Taylor's story also has created a positive Ripple Effect by Shauna sharing her story and saving so many lives. We were so honored to hear Shauna and Taylor's story and hope you share this with others and remember to "PUT IT DOWN" Don't let your send be the end...

    Everyone Loves Nipples! | Dannie Nicholson Oct 07, 2020

    Dannie is a mom of 3 boys, divorced and remarried, a breast cancer survivor, barre3 instructor, an artist, an areola micro pigmentation specialist specialist and a Christian. All of these things have come together and created the opportunity to empower breast cancer survivors-and all women-to rebuild after trauma (whether from cancer or other circumstances). She is Idaho's first areola micro pigmentation specialist! She has seen over 350 patients and started a non-profit Tit For Tat Collective aimed at helping breast cancer survivors with all aspects of recovery and treatment, also providing services to those who cannot afford the procedure.

    Through Dannie's experience as a Barre3 instructor over the past 2 years, she has learned that many women (not just cancer survivors) are at odds with their bodies. Her goal is to creat a safe space for ALL women to begin to put themselves back together so that true, meaningful and lasting healing can begin and flourish. This begins with self-love for everyone.

    When is Positivity Destructive? Apr 28, 2020

    If you have ever hated the saying, "Everything happens for a reason." or "It could be worse." this episode is for you!

    We explore the topic of positivity and how it can be destructive in some cases. This was an interesting topic we had not thought of a lot before discussing. We all have certain behaviors in ourselves or when talking others could result in this. We need to be more aware. Some of these could be hiding how we really feel, shaming others for feeling negative emotions, feeling guilty for having negative emotions, or dismissing our own emotions. Sometimes just reframing how we express our emotions or say things can change a situation.

    We'd love to have you continue to share in the discussion over in our private facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/sharingherjourney/

    Creating a Home You Love Apr 14, 2020

    Today more then ever our homes have become refuges from today's crazy times. "Our homes have the power to nurture and support us, or drain and discourage us." We talk about ways our home can center us, bring comfort, and security. It is so important to learn to love the space we are in, regardless of the size or budget. Being able to express ourselves and our style by surrounding ourselves with order and things we love is so important to our well being. Kirsten works full time as an Interior Designer and has had the opportunity to work with both Nicole and Collette to transform their homes, one room at a time. She talks about where you can start, what to start with, and how to create homework spaces. We discuss what to do if you are starting a new build, as well as small things you can do to make your current space function better, as well as why window treatments and art are way underrated. Deciding HOW you live in a home is also a good place to start. Nicole and Collette tell us a little about some rooms they had re-modeled or re-designed and how it affected them.
