The inside of your body is slippery and Olivia really hates that word!

I like to move it, move it
I like to move it, move it
I like to move it, move it
You like to move it

No, this episode isn’t about Madagascar, the silly movie where Chris Rock plays a zebra. Marisa and Olivia are talking about the how they move their bodies and why they move. And the ladies surprise each other by choosing the same thing to talk about! Are they vibing? They’re totally vibing. They also discuss Avril Lavigne, men’s love of muscles, Charlie Hunnam (Marisa’s favorite hottie), and the pros and cons of their chosen activity. And they can’t forget about what’s keeping them well! What’s keeping you well? How do you move? Join the 2 Girls in their Pillow Fort to chat, laugh, and explore movement.

How do you even get started on your health and wellness journey? How did Marisa and Olivia get started? How to find your "WHY?"

Is BMI ever a useful tool? Or is it total bullshit? In this episode of 2 Girls, 1 Pillow Fort, Marisa and Olivia explore the BMI scale. It's origins and uses today.

Oops, we did another documentary episode! This time around, we watched Forks Over Knives. Forks Over Knives was a movement based on the "disease-reversing power of a plant-based diet". We explore how our most common diseases in America are preventable and reversible.
