    Episode 84 "Chris helps me swipe left OR right & more"

    Hey QC FAM! What’s happening! In this episode, I am joined AGAIN by the amazing Christina. In this episode we talk about the disastrous events going on in Texas and how we feel for those being affected by it. We talk about how we're in complete shock by the response of a Texas mayor and the senator.  Then we shift topics and talk about social media affecting relationships, Chris helps me swipe left or right on Bumble. Lastly, we talk about how a trampoline workout is taking over a Boston club. Thank you to Christina for coming back on this nonsense of a podcast. I love you and appreciate you.

All three groups are working to provide housing, food, and other support systems to those in need. Donate to a food bank in Texas. Feeding Texas has a comprehensive list of food banks across the state, searchable by zip code. Donate to national organizations, such as the Salvation Army and American Red Cross in North Texas, Central and South Texas, and the Gulf Coast region of Texas. Donate to or volunteer with disaster relief organizations like Crowdsource Rescue, which has been activated to help those in Texas. Help animals in need by donating to organizations such as Austin Pets Alive!, SPCA of Texas, and Operation Kindness. Note that some facilities, such as Operation Kindness in North Texas, may be impacted by power outages. Conserve power if you're in Texas by following this handy guide from the Austin American-Statesman. xoxo Melissa

    Episode 83 "I completed Dry January"

    Hello QC Fam ! Hope all IS WELL!  In episode 83, I talk about how I gave up alcohol AGAIN in January. In this episode I talk about the benefits of giving up alcohol for a month. I share some tips to get through it and even share some of my mocktail recipes.  If you end up doing an experiment or challenge or journey (Whatever you want to call it), of no alcohol this episode can be helpful for you! If I could give one piece of advice to anyone wanting to try it, it is to write down when you usually drink (time and day). I would try to come up with hobbies or activities to do during those times you usually are drinking. Just know you can do anything you put your mind to and you CAN do hard things. You got this.
