How To Stop Caring About What Everyone Thinks Ft. Victoria Garrick

Today, Sami and Aleen are talking to Victoria Garrick, former D-1 athlete, Ted Talk speaker, and mental health advocate. They kick off the convo talking about her experience as a college athlete and how she developed a toxic relationship with food. Victoria shares how she turned it into intuitive eating, unfiltered photos, and her journey to stop trying to please society. Why do we care so much about what other people think? They discuss whether competitive athletics are always toxic AF or actually a net positive. Finally, they wrap up the pod by talking about how she approaches mental health and fitness now, and how to live intuitively in all aspects of life.

These Are (Some More Of) Our Favorite Things

Remember Aleen and Sami’s “Favorite Things” episode? They’re back again, bringing you some of their new favs. This year has been stressful to say the least and after a quick chat about feeling hopeful and positive for the vaccine and the new year, the girls dive right into all of their favorite things. They share it all, from unnecessary kitchen gadgets and embarrassing childhood items still in their apartments, to how many tabs they leave open and their guilty pleasure movies. (Yes, there is a heated debate on When Harry Met Sally, we thought you’d never ask). Learn more about Sami and Aleen this week and try not to LOL.
