    21. In Case of Emergency, Press Play: When Stress Becomes Your Unwanted Roommate

    When stress has made itself a little too comfortable and won't take a hint, press play. Stress doesn't just live in our thoughts or the world around us - it settles into our muscles, connective tissue, and joints. It can even change the way we breathe. Your body can literally become a storage unit for stress to unload  This practice is perfect for anytime you notice yourself becoming tight, tense,  overwhelmed, or anxious. No experience necessary. Just find a comfortable place, follow your breath, and remember what it feels like to relax.

    190. We Didn’t Plan For This: What Grief Sounds Like on Vacation

    We thought we were just taking a beach trip.  Instead, the drive, the music, and a quiet morning on the water reminded us that grief doesn’t stay home when you leave town. This isn’t an episode about moving on. It’s about learning there’s room for both. If you’ve ever wondered why grief catches you off guard—or questioned whether it’s okay to laugh while you’re still mourning—this conversation is for you.

    20. In Case of Emergency, Press Play: The Stories We Tell Ourselves

    The Stories We Tell Ourselves: Rewrite Your Inner Dialogue The way you speak to yourself matters! Your thoughts influence your choices and the opportunities you believe are possible. Sometimes the biggest obstacle isn’t what’s happening around you—it’s the story you’ve been telling yourself for years. This isn’t about pretending everything is perfect. It’s about recognizing that you have the ability to choose a different narrative—one that helps you move forward instead of keeping you stuck. Take a deep breath, settle into the present moment, and begin building a mindset that supports the life you want to create. When you’re ready to rewrite the story you tell yourself, press play.

    19. In Case of Emergency, Press Play: Peaceful Beach Meditation

    People Be Peopling: Pink Hair, Walkie-Talkies & The Greatest Dad Long Con Game Ever

    Nora’s back! Natalie and Adrienne survived. And after being away for months, one thing became abundantly clear…People still be peopling! A quick disclaimer: We did our best to censor names… but a few slipped through.

    18. In Case of Emergency, Press Play: Quiet the Noise

    Peace isn’t something you have to chase. It’s something you can return to. So much of our day is spent replaying the past or worrying about what’s next that we forget the only place peace actually exists—the present moment. In this guided meditation, you’ll slow down your breath, quiet the constant conversation in your mind, and reconnect with where you are right now. There is nothing to solve. Nothing to fix. Just this breath. Just this moment. Allow yourself to relax, let your thoughts drift by like passing clouds, and discover that calm has been within you all along. When life pulls you everywhere but the present moment, press play.

    17. In Case of Emergency, Press Play: Breathe Through Color

    Color has the power to influence the way we feel—and when paired with intentional breathing, it can become a powerful tool for calming the mind and reconnecting with yourself. In this guided meditation, you’ll journey through the colors of the rainbow, using each breath to explore the qualities traditionally associated. From the grounding energy of red to the peaceful connection of violet, you’ll be invited to release tension, restore balance, and cultivate a greater sense of calm. Whether you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply need a few moments to reset, this practice offers a gentle space to slow down, breathe deeply, and return to yourself. When you need to breathe a little easier, press play.

    189. We Didn't Plan For This: Dad's Chili

    My Dad’s Chili  What reminds you of the people you love? For some, it’s a song. A photograph. A place. A favorite recipe. For Adrienne’s daughter Mallory, it was her Dad’s chili. In this special episode, Mallory shares her college admissions essay she wrote after losing her dad halfway through her junior year of high school. Through one simple memory, she captures what grief feels like, how life changes after loss, and the unexpected ways the people we love continue to shape us long after they’re gone. This isn’t just a story about losing a father. It’s a story about the constants we inherit from the people who loved us—their values, their laughter, their traditions, and the pieces of them we carry forward every day. Whether you’re grieving someone you love or simply cherishing the people who are still here, we hope this episode reminds you that love doesn’t disappear. Sometimes it lives in the smallest things. Sometimes… it lives in a bowl of chili. When you’re missing someone you love, press play.
