Ep. 145: Approve of Yourself Before Seeking the Approval of Others Feb 22, 2020

Ep. 141: How to Deal With Comments About Your Body Feb 07, 2020

Show notes

Being in the world, and especially on social media, in 2020 means that almost everyone thinks they get to have a say in how you look. From well-wishers to hecklers, and even your family, people think that whatever they have to say about your body is far too important and must be shared. Frankly, we’re a little tired of it. Danny and Jill want to give you the tools they use to deal with body comments, because if you can’t beat ‘em, might as well adapt to them.

Ep. 139: New Year, New Who? Jan 31, 2020

Show notes

January might be over, but hopefully the resolutions we made are still with us! A new year and a new decade can make the comparison trap rear its ugly head, but starting 2020 by judging our past decade isn’t going to get us anywhere. We can sit and mope about how tough 2019 was, or we can choose to appreciate all that we’ve grown through and head into 2020 with new intentions and goals. This is the Best Life, and we want to make 2020 the best year yet.
