I know you've been waiting for this one! One of my best friends in the whole world Kaylin Pyles and I sat down to discuss relationships and while we intended it to be around 30 minutes, it ended up being almost an hour but we think it's valuable whether you're in a relationship currently or wanting to find the right person for you, we've learned a lot in our relationships! Hopefully our shared perspectives will give you some ideas or insight and please share with a friend who needs to hear this too!

There's so much judgement on social media when it comes to beauty that I just had to record an episode on this topic because you deserve to do what makes you happy. There's a lot that I do that would fall into the "self-care" bucket that I do so I feel my best and show up with confidence whether that is wearing makeup to the gym, doing my hair, or anything else I choose to do. If you have any questions or enjoyed this type of episode, please DM me and let me know!

Do you fully trust yourself? I've been on many journey's the past few years but a big one is my self-trust journey. I've learned to be teammates with myself instead of fighting myself and it's made a huge difference. Listen in and remember a time you had trust in yourself and learn how to have more trust in yourself.

We are back! The holidays for your girl were super busy but I'm so excited to be back! I want to share what I think will be great perspective shift for you heading into 2023. I've really detached from "what's trending" the past year or two and it's been so freeing to be who I want to be authentically and do what I want to do. I want the same thing for you.

Younger Caitlin had a very different mindset around the holidays than she does now and I hope you learn from my experience when it comes to food guilt around this time of year. I want to share some hard lessons I've learned, the importance of food flexibility especially around this time of year, and being present with those you love.

I want to share a very vulnerable story with you guys around drinking and alcohol as a former waitress and someone who went out a lot in their early 20's and even in high school. I know the scene and was apart of it for a good while until I had a very disturbing thing happen to me one night. That night in combination of my love for fitness, health, and now leading my team, I approach alcohol and drinking differently. Listen in and hopefully you resonate with my story and make smart decisions when it comes to alcohol.
