180: Solo Ep: Your Guide to a Confident & Effortless Summer

Every body is a summer body!

Today’s solo episode is so summer-coded, but first, let’s catch each other up! Kristina shares how she used to romanticize traveling, but when the kids stay at home, the fear sets in. Also teeming with anxiety, Raeann talks about the chaos of moving in New York. And of course, our weekly obsessions — Kristina chats about The Valley, while Raeann does a deep dive into the allure of rodent men. 

Summer is finally here and we are so ready for the pool parties and beach hangs that are in our near future. We emphasize that we need to start embracing the bodies we are in now and stop tearing ourselves down. We share advice on how to build up our confidence and mental health, from going on daily walks to planning outfits ahead of time to ditching makeup for a natural glow. This summer, aim to feel like your most authentic and effortless self.
