This show is the Bees Knees

This show is totally the bees knees and I’m loving it. These coaches are so peppy and I love having bRUNch with them on the regular.

Feel Good Fun

I don’t follow the workouts in the episodes, but this has become one of my favorite pods. I can’t even remember how I came across the gals, but I am so glad I did! I’m currently going through the early episodes and am even listening to the holiday ones in the middle of September because it feels like chatting with besties while I’m running or just running errands. Shelby and Christine have beautiful souls.

Great pod!

Love the content but it’s difficult for me to listen to it without being distracted by the background music.
