It was so much fun to visit with Ralph. Catching up with old friends is how I want everyone listening to feel! Ralph and I went to high school together and - although we haven't seen each other in 30 years, the bond is strong with this one. I admire Ralph's candidness about his weight, attitude, upbringing, weaknesses and how he finally maintained a healthy weight and a much happier life.

WOW! Is the best way I can sum up this podcast! Sean was amazing - raw and honest and empowering!   We discussed Sean's life, his battles and struggles and how he keeps going strong! Sean's personality is magnetic and his wisdom is invaluable. I loved how honest he was in answering all of my questions (especially through some technical difficulties!). Sean has an upbeat attitude and is funny as hell along with being smart and direct. He corrects me without hesitation and I appreciate his open attitude! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/becoming-parents/message

Latoya and I talk real issues - body issues, infertility, being a mom, diets, weight loss, growing up in the hood. ​I'm an eighties kid who takes herself seriously while NOT taking herself seriously sometimes. I can be a walking contradiction. I love all around respect, be passionate about all things artistic and a full-fledged potty mouth. In a society where we are constantly being censored on so much, I like to find a safe space to let down my hair, be free and live life --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/becoming-parents/message

Laura is a friend and a kindred spirit. I'm thankful she candidly spoke about domestic violence, being raised in a strict religion and her triumph and successes in spite of her struggles! I'm not an advocate for divorce. I am an advocate for you - living your best life. And sometimes that includes divorce. I know only too well how difficult divorce can be - rather you made the decision or your partner has. The future feels uncertain and perhaps doubtful... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/becoming-parents/message

A fantastic conversation with Aaron with LifeAID beverage about life, finding balance with family, success and failure! I loved how candid Aaron was about his life, family, finding balance (or lack thereof at times!), his business model and why he has almost zero staff turnover. We talked about how he met his wife, how much he absolutely loves her after 14 years and what he does to keep that spark alive. He discusses his morning routine (a must!) which I have since adopted with minor tweaks! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/becoming-parents/message

CAROLYN'S DRIVE TO HELP OTHERS HOLISTICALLY WITH THEIR HEALTH INSPIRED HER TO WRITE A BOOK - "SOAR INTO HEALTH" I've had some great conversations with Carolyn and I love how outspoken she is about difficulties in parenting, how people don't look at their health in a "full body" holistic manner and how difficult it is to change an unhealthy mindset. She's inspiring people one at a time to take a step back and take charge of their health. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/becoming-parents/message

NOAH DISCUSSES WITH ME HOW HE BUILT HIS FITNESS CENTER, THE CHALLENGES HE ENDURED, MEETING HIS WIFE AND FINDING THAT ALL TOO ELUSIVE BALANCE I "met" Noah when I worked for a mutual acquaintance. We've never met in person which is tragic and he won't move his fitness center and wife to Reno which I keep telling him is frustrating as hell. He has boundless energy and drive and I'd love to go visit for a race (or two) of his. He keeps everyone around him on their toes --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/becoming-parents/message
