Instagram is rolling out a new feature that defaults to keeping news and political content off of our feeds, and it got us thinking, is it irresponsible to ignore current events? Unfortunately, many news sources are produced with biases, headlines are manufactured to outrage rather than inform, and falsified information is getting harder and harder…

No one goes in to a marriage hoping that it’ll fail, but statistics don’t lie, and around half of all marriages end in divorce. With those odds, wouldn’t you want to be protected? Conversations around money and obligation can be uncomfortable, but they’re so important to have before long-term commitment. Once upon a time, we never understood the ne…

Never say never on the internet because if you make a public claim about one thing and then eventually change your mind, someone out there named Susan is going to be VERY mad at you. (No offense to all the Susans out there, we’re sure most of you are normal.) When people follow you for one opinion you hold or attribute you have, it can be hard to c…

The world might be run by assholes and idiots, but that doesn’t make us powerless! Y’all, this is the Best Life, and living the Best Life means realizing that even in the worst situations, we still have influence over our own lives. So yeah, the world is run by assholes and idiots, but that’s nothing new. And since we can’t get rid of the assholes …

Sometimes it feels like we’re in all-out gender warfare, where women are putting in work to heal themselves while men dig their heels into their old, problematic ways. You don’t have to tell us, we know it’s not ALL men, but there’s a lot of data showing that women are outpacing men in almost all growth metrics, including intellectual and personal.…

We’re back and chatting about our new favorite subject—ChatGPT. Danny-J is an outspoken ChatGPT lover—it’s her nutrition coach, therapist, best friend, travel agent, personal assistant, and potentially the love of her life—but not everyone feels the same. But whether you love it or hate it, it’d be a mistake to pretend like it doesn’t exist. No one…

We can’t fight the fact that we’re getting older, so we might as well fight the urge to hate our bodies. Nobody (and no body, for that matter) looks hot every moment of the day. Even the sexiest people alive have insecurities or unflattering angles, so why bother hating the less-than-perfect parts of ourselves? The people that love us don’t care ab…

Is ChatGPT taking over the world? Is it making us dumber? Less social? Is it ruining our critical thinking? Nope! At least for us, AI programs like ChatGPT have been a powerful tool we’ve used to enhance and simplify our lives, and it’s certainly not a crutch. Being scared of the implications of AI makes sense, but ChatGPT isn’t a replacement for h…

Katy Perry went to space, and women everywhere rejoiced. Except that didn’t actually happened. Well, Katy Perry DID go to “space” but the rest of us were pretty unimpressed. There’s a lot of talk about what rich people should and shouldn’t do with their money, and while you’ll never hear us telling anyone how to spend their cash, whenever a celebri…

Getting older is already enough of a mind-fuck, and now Danny has to start adding dating back into the mix? Are you fucking serious? We thought dating in our mid-30’s was bad, but now it seems so much worse. People are lying about their ages left and right, men we don’t even know judge us on if we’re “fuckable” enough (like we even asked them), dat…

The person you decide to build a life with is one of the most important decisions you can make, but also… Sometimes the person you once knew (or even the person you once were) changes unexpectedly. There are things we know now that we never could have predicted in our 20s and were getting married. When we picked our ex-husbands, we really thought w…

When you’ve travelled as much as we have, and worked from home for as long as we have, building an in-person community is harder than it looks. We have so many deep friendships that we love and cherish, but those people we love are often states away. That’s all well and good, except for the times when you’re in need, and you need the support of a c…

What makes a good friend? Is it someone with lots of wealth, power, or status? Someone who can connect you with important people? Kind of sounds like a business colleague or mentor to us. When we think of the best friends we have, none of those qualities is at the top of the list. Friendships that are meaningful and lasting aren’t transactional. So…

Have you ever had someone (usually an internet marketer trying to sell you something) tell you to “build a life you don’t need a vacation from”? It’s a nice little sound bite, but it’s not always practical advice. Once upon a time, we would have eaten that shit up, but now we don’t see why you can’t love your job AND need a vacation every now and t…

If men cared about their relationships with women, it would make sense to listen to what women have to say, right? Yeah, we know, sounds unrealistic. Mens work is important, but in this culture we live in, very few men listen to or even care about what women have to say. But we can’t force anyone to hear us and we certainly can’t force men to care—…

Jill is newly and happily engaged, but her relationship hasn’t always been perfect. When it came time to decide to break-up or take the next step in the relationship, Jill and Keith made the choice to start working on building something even better than before. Today, Jill is sharing the 4 main changes she and Keith have been practicing that have m…

Sometimes we’d like to wave a magic wand and be miraculously healed from all our traumas and pain. Unfortunately for us (and you) we live in the real world where our pains demand to be felt and there’s not much we can do but to wait it out. There is one bright spot: just like in business growth, change happens gradually… gradually… gradually… and t…

We’ve finally arrived at “mid-life” and if there were ever a time to have a crisis, it’s now. It’s easy to get swept up in the fast pace of our lives and forget to ask ourselves what we really want, but there’s a lot of courage in knowing exactly what you want and being willing to ask for it. Nothing in life is guaranteed—not even life itself—so le…

No one loves feeling like an Impostor, but there are some people who probably should feel like one. There’s utility in Impostor Syndrome—if you’re feeling it, is it possible that you actually aren’t that good yet? Do you actually struggle with your money mindset, or should you just not be charging that much for your services yet? Get a few more rep…

Everyone knows that if you dare to have a presence on the internet, you have to stay the same forever. Duh. Changing your mind and evolving as a person is a luxury allowed only for others and not for you! And while we’re certainly being facetious right now, there are many people who fully believe that, even if just subconsciously. As entrepreneurs …

Even for people who know everything there is to know about having a healthy mindset need to check themselves at some point. Sometimes, it’s exactly the people that “know better” that need help acting right, not just thinking right. Mindset starts with awareness, but awareness alone isn’t enough. Accountability, emotional regulation, and self-compas…

Today, Jill is having a conversation with fellow fitness business coach, Nardia Norman. Nardia shares her journey as a trainer of personal trainers, how a personal health crisis led her to understand the unique needs of women in fitness, and all about the challenges faced by new online coaches in a saturated market. But not only does Nardia know he…

This podcast grew out of some really shitty times in our lives, and since then we’ve learned a lot about how to deal with all that shittiness, especially when that shittiness is inescapable. No one wants to suffer, but the hard times happen and we feel better prepared to deal with them now. In the last episode, Danny J shared a bit about how she’s …

We’ve fucked up and started over and changed our minds so many times in this life that we lost count. In our younger years, we made a lot of decisions that we thought other people wanted us to make and when we wanted to do something different, we waited for someone to tell us it was okay before we acted. But here’s a tip, Bestie: it’s not your job …

Somehow, it’s a new year again and this time we’re feeling neither well-rested, nor excited to do it all again. It’s almost like the years start coming and they don’t stop coming. Wish someone could have warned us about all that. But even though we’re exhausted, we’ve got plans for 2025 that include both leaning in to and leaning away from social m…
