#63: How Speaking into the Mic has Changed Us

Hey girl, hey, it's TAD day. And it's just the two of us, sharing our truths, in an episode that we meant to do monthssss ago. The original intention was to do an one year anniversary episode and celebrate the abundance of conscious conversation that had taken place. ...... along with the abundance of mistakes! Except a year quickly passed by (funny how that always happens) and we lost track of time. But hey, it doesn't matter if it's been "a year" or three years, we still felt this episode was ...

#61: Group Therapy with Alyssa Kuzins

This week, we're chatting with our dear friend and entrepreneur boss babe, Alyssa Kuzins of the Journal Deck. Think of it as three girlfriends getting together, drinking wine, and leaving it all out on the table. Here’s how it went down: we said “screw it” to the outline we had planned and instead just pressed record. What transcribed was a beautifully healing conversation about: Spaciousness Creativity Certainty Confusion Self-care Practice Patience Entrepreneurship ... and just trying to figur...

Peta is an entrepreneur (who started making 7 figures in her mid-20's), a speaker, a humanitarian, an environmentalist, a mother, a writer, and THE voice of the Millennial generation. If her name sounds familiar that’s probably because you’ve seen her all over social media, or maybe you own a copy of her new book, Earth is Hiring, or maybe you’ve stumbled upon her lectures, website, or videos.

#56: Learning to Let Go and Live with Kendall from Arrow Living

Truth bomb TAD Tribe, us two ladies are not sport aficionados, actually we couldn't be anything further from that, so when today's guest reached out to us...... we weren't too sure how this conversation would go.

#52: Meditation 101: Get Zen With Us!

Become mindful is a huge part of this whole living your truth and daring to change thing. But what does that really mean? We define mindfulness as conscious living aka bringing our awareness to the present moment as often as possible. The best way to kickstart your own mindfulness regimen is to start inside. There’s really only one way to do this… it takes getting quiet, sitting your butt down, and trying to meditate. Meditate. Yes, we said it. Listen, we know that it’s scary. We know how hard i...

Make a delicious breakfast filled with healthy ingredients? And make it out of the house with enough time to get to work without feeling rushed? … HA! Yeah, right… Neither did we. But we’d like to!
