    Episode - 34 Post-Show Slumps & Teenage Truth Bombs

    This week on From Pine Tree to Palm Tree, we've got a special guest—our 14-year-old daughter, Lyric—who may or may not expose some family secrets (don't worry, we're only slightly terrified ). Trevor and Danielle dive into the post-show slump—that strange mental crash that hits after you've poured your soul into a huge goal. Danielle opens up about the emotional rollercoaster of coming home after her competition: eating carbs, battling binge urges, feeling like she's “failing,” and trying to rediscover her purpose outside of prep life. Trevor shares how different the energy was between this show and the last—from the stage to the recovery—and what it's been like to watch Danielle fight through the negative self-talk and keep showing up. Lyric pops in with some… let's say lightly filtered commentary (she's 14, it's gold). This episode is raw, real, and a reminder that mental health matters. When the goal is over and the high fades, it's okay to not feel okay. What's not okay? Staying silent. We talk about the importance of speaking up, asking for support, and trusting that the people who love you will stand beside you—even when your head's a mess and your carb cravings are louder than your thoughts. Tune in for a mix of laughs, vulnerability, and that one-of-a-kind teenager sass. Subscribe, share, and remember—you're not alone, and it is going to be okay.

    Episode 33 - From Backstage to Back On Top

    This week on From Pine Tree to Palm Tree, we're back on the island and back with a story that'll fire you up (and maybe make you laugh at our bug-infested ending ‍♀️ ). After flying to California for Danielle's bikini competition, the first time she hit the stage… it wasn't it. She got caught in her head, let perfection win, and walked off knowing she didn't show up as her true, powerful self. The posing was off, the walk wasn't right, and after pre-judging, she was sitting in 4th or 5th place. Cue the hotel room tears, a tough-love pep talk from Trevor, and a moment of clarity: “I'm not done. And I'm definitely not out.” Danielle rallied, meditated, got out of her head, and showed up to finals like a freaking warrior—owning the stage, fully present, and powerful. And that comeback? It moved her all the way up to 2nd place. This episode is about that moment we all face—when we think we've blown it, lost it, failed it. But the truth is: you're only down as long as you think you're down. We dive into: Why the comeback is more important than the setback How perfectionism almost stole the show (literally) The mindset shift that took Danielle from crushed to confident The reality that you only fail when you quit Oh—and how a swarm of bugs tried to take Trevor down mid-episode. This one's full of heart, hustle, and a little chaos. Tune in now, subscribe, share with a friend who needs a comeback story, and remember: you were built to fight for the life you love.

    Episode 32: Aliens, Apocalypses & Abs: A Totally Normal Episode

    This week on From Pine Tree to Palm Tree, buckle up—because things get weird. Between Danielle's low-carb brain and Trevor's ADHD energy, we cover literally everything from aliens and the zombie apocalypse to life's biggest question: Why are we even here? ‍♂️ But in true Pine to Palm fashion, we somehow bring it back around to growth, sacrifice, and becoming the best version of yourself. Danielle opens up about her expectations for her upcoming show (spoiler: perfectionism makes a guest appearance), while Trevor reflects on how wildly life can shift in just 10 years—from mainland chaos to island peace, and everything in between. This episode is part comedy, part existential crisis, part motivational fire—and the reminder you didn't know you needed: Time is going to pass either way. The story you're living is the one you choose to write. Stop wasting time and create the life you actually want. Tune in for laughs, lightbulb moments, and just enough zombie prep talk to make you question your canned food stash. Don't forget to subscribe, share, and leave a review—unless you're an alien, then just beam us some good vibes.

    Episode 31: Cranky, Rain-Soaked, and Fully Committed

    This week on From Pine Tree to Palm Tree, we're serving up a combo of cranky prep vibes, soul-searching, and unexpected rainstorms—because island life never goes as planned. ️ With Danielle just weeks away from her third bikini competition, she's running on low carbs, low energy, and high emotions. She's doing her best not to snap at her loved ones (bless you, Trevor), and holding tight to her why—because let's be honest, when you're this tired, even the sound of someone chewing can feel like a personal attack. Meanwhile, Trevor shares a powerful process he's been working through: mapping out the patterns, habits, and beliefs that are keeping him stuck—and rewriting the story to become the ultimate version of himself. No fluff, just real, raw self-awareness and honest reflection. We also talk about the joy (and chaos) of living in Hawaii—like getting unexpectedly caught in a full-on rainstorm and just embracing the moment because… why not? The big takeaway? If you want something real, something meaningful, it's going to cost you. Sacrifice is part of the deal. But you can't play 100% in until you're willing to look 100% at what's holding you back. Face the truth. Rewrite the story. And maybe—just maybe—feed Danielle some carbs before someone gets hurt. Hit play, subscribe, and share this episode with someone who's chasing big goals and needs a little push (or a snack). Let's grow together—crankiness, rain, and all.

    Episode 30 - Low-Carb Brain, Bikini Dreams and Karate Kid champ!

    This week on From Pine Tree to Palm Tree, we're three weeks out from Danielle's bikini competition—which means one thing: low-carb brain is officially here and sentence formation is optional. We dive into the daily grind of prep life: 90 minutes of cardio, full lifts, zero energy… and somehow still showing up (with questionable hygiene and a lot of dry shampoo). It's raw, real, and loaded with laughs—but behind the sweat and sacrifice is a powerful reminder: big goals demand big commitment. Trevor also shares a childhood story from a karate tournament that hits deep—about what it really means to train to win. He didn't just want to beat the other guy—he wanted the other guy at his best. The twist? He won the match… but lost his belt in the process. It's a lesson in integrity, respect, and going all in—not just for the trophy, but for the honor of the challenge. This episode is a mix of cardio exhaustion, marital comedy, and motivation to chase the thing you've been putting off—because you're never too old and it's never too late.

    Episode 29 - Egg Hunts, Pig Hunts & Teenage Chaos – A Very Pine to Palm Easter

    This week on From Pine Tree to Palm Tree, things get... wild. What started as a wholesome Easter weekend quickly turned into a chaotic mashup of egg hunts, pig hunts, and a full-blown emotional rollercoaster. Picture this: teenage boys cheering, girls (mostly Danielle) crying, and a pig that literally escaped after being shot. Yes, you read that right. It's a comical episode packed with drama, laughter, and a reminder that sometimes life doesn't give you a deep message—just a story that had to be told. We're not solving the world's problems in this one—but we are letting you in on one of the most hilariously unhinged holiday weekends we've ever had. Tune in now, subscribe, and share with a friend who needs a laugh and a reminder that real life is way better than reality TV.

    Episode 28 - Grumpy Gains: Navigating Mood Swings & Bodybuilding Prep

    In this hilariously real episode of From Pine Tree to Palm Tree, Trevor calls Danielle to the carpet for her grumpy antics during her show prep! With this season being a bit tougher (hello, bulking aftermath!), Danielle admits she's been a little, shall we say, hard to be around. So much so that Trevor and Lyric have a secret “grumpy code” for when to steer clear! But it's not just laughs—this episode is packed with heart. Danielle opens up about how choosing to do hard things doesn't make us victims and how those we love the most often bear the brunt of our stress. With Trevor's loving reality check, Danielle realizes it's time to shift her perspective and own her choices, rather than letting them spill over into her relationships. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who's ever found themselves lashing out at the ones they love. Tune in for laughs, love, and some real talk on owning our journey. Subscribe now, share with a friend, and let's get real about those “grumpy gains”!

    Episode 27 - Marriage, Connection, and a Little Bit of Sexy Time

    This week on From Pine Tree to Palm Tree, we're going there—marriage, connection, serving each other… and yes, sex. We're diving into what really keeps a relationship alive after years together (hint: it's not just date nights and shared Spotify playlists). Danielle gets real about how insecurity around her body makes her pull away from Trevor, and Trevor opens up about how stress makes him shut down like a human “Do Not Disturb” sign. We talk about the messy, funny, and powerful things we've learned about love languages, emotional intimacy, and staying connected—especially when life is chaotic. And no, it's not always romantic sunsets and deep talks. Sometimes it's just remembering to do the dishes without being asked. Marriage isn't 50/50. It's 100/100—every day.No one coasts their way to happily ever after… but it's so worth the effort.
