    Inner Applause, Spoiler Slip-Ups & Sh*tty Calls

    (Disclaimer: Adult language and content.) This episode is a little bit of everything — the way real life is. We kick things off with one of the best mindset reframes we’ve heard in a long time: when your heart starts racing before trying something new… maybe that’s not panic. Maybe it’s inner applause — your body cheering you on. From there, it’s a classic catch-up: a (minor) “no spoilers” slip-up, what they’ve been watching lately, and a rundown of life happenings — including a fascinating breathwork session that dives into why how we breathe matters more than we think. Frankie shares a parent moment from Axel’s hockey game: unfair calls, confusing whistles, a talented kid on the other team… and the reminder we all need — you can’t control every call, but you can control what you bring next shift. @listentofrankieandjess on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/listentofrankieandjess?igsh=MXhmam9maWJ5emczdA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr @listentofrankieandjess on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@listentofrankieandjess?_t=ZT-8xrjEduwb6r&_r=1 @Frankieslc on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/frankieslc?igsh=MWl4NjVubHZ0MTN2Zw== @jessfergie14 on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jessfergie14?igsh=dWhnMzBkdWludGVl @frankieslc on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@frankieslc?_t=ZT-8xrjZu12GVB&_r=1 @jessfergie14 on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@jessfergie14?_t=ZT-8xrjeo4YzAz&_r=1 Thanks to Salt Lake's own Super Bubble for the music on The Frankie and Jess Podcast!

    You’re Not Behind - You’re Just Figuring It Out

    (Disclaimer: Adult language and content.) In this end-of-week episode of the Frankie and Jess Podcast, we dive into listener questions, honest confessions, and the kind of real-life advice most of us wish we’d heard sooner. We talk about social anxiety and small talk exhaustion, the fear of being alone, and what it really takes to put yourself out there — especially when vulnerability feels risky. From dating later in life and coffee-first meetups to understanding where fear comes from, they unpack how self-awareness and timing play a huge role in relationships. The conversation also covers practical advice around money and adulthood — saving early, compound interest, buying real estate sooner, and learning not to let fear stop you from taking smart chances. Frankie shares lessons passed down from his dad about missed investment opportunities and why those stories shaped how he approaches risk today. They also touch on college costs and resources like BookSprice.com, a tool for finding cheaper textbook rentals using ISBN numbers, and why small decisions can add up to big savings over time. A reminder that most of us are just figuring it out as we go. @listentofrankieandjess on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/listentofrankieandjess?igsh=MXhmam9maWJ5emczdA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr @listentofrankieandjess on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@listentofrankieandjess?_t=ZT-8xrjEduwb6r&_r=1 @Frankieslc on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/frankieslc?igsh=MWl4NjVubHZ0MTN2Zw== @jessfergie14 on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jessfergie14?igsh=dWhnMzBkdWludGVl @frankieslc on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@frankieslc?_t=ZT-8xrjZu12GVB&_r=1 @jessfergie14 on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@jessfergie14?_t=ZT-8xrjeo4YzAz&_r=1 Thanks to Salt Lake's own Super Bubble for the music on The Frankie and Jess Podcast!

    The Things We’ll Miss One Day

    (Disclaimer: Adult language and content.) In this episode of the Frankie and Jess Podcast, we dive into one of those conversations that quietly stays with you long after it ends. We talk about energy — how everything carries it, how clutter affects us, and why you don’t need a new life… just more presence in the one you’re living. From powerful reminders about being kinder to yourself to small resets that actually make a difference, the conversation naturally unfolds into something deeper. The episode takes a meaningful turn as we share a list of things to do with your mom while she’s still alive — from recording her voice and laughter, to learning the little habits she passed down without even realizing it. Frankie shares a simple moment he still does every time he buys eggs at the grocery store — something his mom taught him years ago — and why those small memories end up meaning everything. They reflect on aging parents, grandparents, the reality that there are no warnings when time starts running out, and why capturing voices, stories, and moments now matters more than we think. There’s laughter, emotion, TV talk (Landman, Billy Bob Thornton), life advice they wish they could give their younger selves, and a simple truth that keeps resurfacing: One day, you’ll miss this version of you. @listentofrankieandjess on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/listentofrankieandjess?igsh=MXhmam9maWJ5emczdA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr @listentofrankieandjess on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@listentofrankieandjess?_t=ZT-8xrjEduwb6r&_r=1 @Frankieslc on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/frankieslc?igsh=MWl4NjVubHZ0MTN2Zw== @jessfergie14 on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jessfergie14?igsh=dWhnMzBkdWludGVl @frankieslc on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@frankieslc?_t=ZT-8xrjZu12GVB&_r=1 @jessfergie14 on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@jessfergie14?_t=ZT-8xrjeo4YzAz&_r=1 Thanks to Salt Lake's own Super Bubble for the music on The Frankie and Jess Podcast!

    Stranger Things, Series Finales & Why We’d Rather Watch at Home

    (Disclaimer: Adult language and content.) Happy New Year — and welcome officially to year two of the Frankie & Jess Podcast. In this episode, we reflect on how this podcast began as an audio diary during one of the biggest transitions of our lives — and how simply talking things out became therapy in real time. We get honest about growth, accountability, and the difference between going to therapy and actually doing the work. We talk about: Why checking the box isn’t the same as real change “Wearing therapy like a badge” vs. seeing real growth Watering your tree — and why growth always shows fruit Accountability, patterns, and pointing the finger back at yourself Why age isn’t the excuse we think it is when it comes to health and self-work We also shift gears into something a little lighter (but just as meaningful): the Stranger Things series finale. One of us watched it on the big screen in a packed theater on New Year’s Day — crowds, reactions, emotions and all. The other watched it quietly at the cabin, late at night, the way it’s always been: just us, no distractions. We talk about: Theater vs. couch viewing Why crowd energy can change the experience Family traditions tied to long-running shows Nostalgia, series finales, and letting characters win Why some stories are better watched at home @listentofrankieandjess on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/listentofrankieandjess?igsh=MXhmam9maWJ5emczdA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr @listentofrankieandjess on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@listentofrankieandjess?_t=ZT-8xrjEduwb6r&_r=1 @Frankieslc on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/frankieslc?igsh=MWl4NjVubHZ0MTN2Zw== @jessfergie14 on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jessfergie14?igsh=dWhnMzBkdWludGVl @frankieslc on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@frankieslc?_t=ZT-8xrjZu12GVB&_r=1 @jessfergie14 on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@jessfergie14?_t=ZT-8xrjeo4YzAz&_r=1 Thanks to Salt Lake's own Super Bubble for the music on The Frankie and Jess Podcast!

    A Drama-Free Table, Snooping Friends & “Am I the A-Hole?”

    (Disclaimer: Adult language and content.) In this post-Christmas episode of the Frankie & Jess Podcast, we talk about what real wealth actually looks like — and spoiler alert, it’s not stuff. After reflecting on a powerful passage about family gatherings without drama, we dive into the idea of prosperity as peaceful relationships, chosen family, and creating homes that feel safe, calm, and welcoming. We talk about breaking cycles, why peace matters more than possessions, and why a quiet, drama-free table can be richer than any feast. Then we switch gears with a wild “Am I the A-Hole?” scenario involving snooping, boundaries, and a USB drive that literally destroys a computer. Who’s at fault? The snooper? The person who set the trap? Or both? This episode is part reflection, part laughter, part debate — and a reminder that peace, boundaries, and respect are worth protecting. @listentofrankieandjess on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/listentofrankieandjess?igsh=MXhmam9maWJ5emczdA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr @listentofrankieandjess on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@listentofrankieandjess?_t=ZT-8xrjEduwb6r&_r=1 @Frankieslc on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/frankieslc?igsh=MWl4NjVubHZ0MTN2Zw== @jessfergie14 on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jessfergie14?igsh=dWhnMzBkdWludGVl @frankieslc on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@frankieslc?_t=ZT-8xrjZu12GVB&_r=1 @jessfergie14 on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@jessfergie14?_t=ZT-8xrjeo4YzAz&_r=1 Thanks to Salt Lake's own Super Bubble for the music on The Frankie and Jess Podcast!

    When Your Kid Has to Pee Again… and Again (A Parenting PSA)

    (Disclaimer: Adult language and content.) (Apple / Spotify ready) In this post-Christmas episode of the Frankie and Jess Podcast, we talk about why it’s so important to focus on what you want to happen — not what you’re afraid might happen. Frankie shares a parenting scare involving Axel that many parents will recognize; frequent bathroom trips that quickly turned into worry. After a visit with the pediatrician, we learned a simple — and incredibly reassuring — explanation that every parent should know. We also talk about how easily our minds jump to worst-case scenarios, how powerful good information can be, and why sharing these moments helps other parents feel less alone. Plus, we touch on community, movement, and getting back to the things that make us feel like ourselves again — including dance, connection, and finding joy after a season of change. This episode is part parenting PSA, part mindset reset, and a reminder that reassurance is sometimes just one good conversation away. @listentofrankieandjess on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/listentofrankieandjess?igsh=MXhmam9maWJ5emczdA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr @listentofrankieandjess on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@listentofrankieandjess?_t=ZT-8xrjEduwb6r&_r=1 @Frankieslc on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/frankieslc?igsh=MWl4NjVubHZ0MTN2Zw== @jessfergie14 on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jessfergie14?igsh=dWhnMzBkdWludGVl @frankieslc on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@frankieslc?_t=ZT-8xrjZu12GVB&_r=1 @jessfergie14 on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@jessfergie14?_t=ZT-8xrjeo4YzAz&_r=1 Thanks to Salt Lake's own Super Bubble for the music on The Frankie and Jess Podcast!

    Not Knowing Poker, Cooking, or Cars — and Owning It

    (Disclaimer: Adult language and content.) In this post-Christmas episode of the Frankie and Jess Podcast, we start with a powerful fable about a butterfly and a scorpion — a story about intention, hurt, boundaries, and why love can’t survive where someone’s nature keeps breaking your wings. From there, the conversation turns deeply personal and surprisingly relatable. We talk about the things we’re embarrassed to admit we don’t know how to do as adults — cooking, playing poker, fixing cars — and how criticism, pressure, and expectations can quietly shut us down over time. Jess opens up about walking away from cooking after years of routine meals and feeling defeated, while Frankie shares the insecurity of being from Detroit and not knowing how to work on cars. Together, we explore how comparison, gender expectations, and “you should know this by now” thinking keeps so many people stuck. This episode is honest, funny, vulnerable, and a reminder that none of us are broken for not knowing everything — we’re human. @listentofrankieandjess on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/listentofrankieandjess?igsh=MXhmam9maWJ5emczdA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr @listentofrankieandjess on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@listentofrankieandjess?_t=ZT-8xrjEduwb6r&_r=1 @Frankieslc on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/frankieslc?igsh=MWl4NjVubHZ0MTN2Zw== @jessfergie14 on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jessfergie14?igsh=dWhnMzBkdWludGVl @frankieslc on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@frankieslc?_t=ZT-8xrjZu12GVB&_r=1 @jessfergie14 on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@jessfergie14?_t=ZT-8xrjeo4YzAz&_r=1 Thanks to Salt Lake's own Super Bubble for the music on The Frankie and Jess Podcast!

    Fly Dance Fitness: Building Strength On and Off the Floor

    (Disclaimer: Adult language and content.) On this episode of the Frankie & Jess Podcast, we sit down with Nichole Kesler, owner of Fly Dance Fitness — the only Fly Dance Fitness location in Utah and the furthest west in the franchise. Fly Dance Fitness is more than a workout. It’s a true brain and body experience. Nichole explains how learning dance routines activates parts of the brain we stop using as adults, why repetition helps movements lock in, and why mixing things up is so important when we get stuck in the same daily routines. We talk about why people often walk in for Throwdown — but stay for sculpt, circuits, strength training, step, and restore classes. The conversation also gets personal. At the start of the interview, Nichole opens up about her 21-year-old daughter, Kylie, who works at Fly and is preparing to leave the day after Christmas to begin her career as an ultrasound technologist. With limited opportunities locally, Kylie accepted a position in Evansville, Indiana, marking her first big step out on her own. Nichole shares what it’s like to feel overwhelming pride while also navigating the sadness that comes with your first child flying the coop. We also talk about raising kids to travel, experience other cultures, and see life beyond Utah, including her 17-year-old son, a lacrosse player who will likely leave the state for school. It’s a conversation about growth, community, strength, and learning how to let go while still cheering the loudest.
