Wednesday Jan 08, 2020
Wednesday Jan 08, 2020
Co-host of the Self-Helpless podcast Delanie Fischer joins Leah and Rachel in the Comedy Store coven, and our convo was very self-helpful! We dove deep about burnout, breaking bad habits, and how to nurture a better employee/boss relationship within yourself. We're puttin' the "werk" in "self-werk", y'all! For 2020, Delanie wants to have a daily wellness practice, Leah wants more of worrying less, and Rach is all about boss moves only. And yes, chiiilllll, the three of us even give our current Netflix recommendations (#Basic). Whether it's money goals, clearing your plate, or taking a leap of faith in your career, this ep is all about doing what *you* actually want. In closing, Leah and Rachel give Delanie (@delaniefischer) a Goddess Oracle Card reading that's about inVESTAing in yourself.

Molly Tarlov of MTV's "Awkward" joins us for an episode that is anything but awkward. Life's a ride and timing - or rather the surrender to timing - is everything.

It's all about motion and e-motion as Leah, Rach, and Molly chat about how to ease anxiety, organic cosmic love stories, "failures" leading to better things, psychic dreams, and magic classes. In closing, Leah and Rachel give Molly (@mollytarlov) a beautiful Goddess Oracle Card reading.
