    Unpacking Unexpected Anxiety THEN we taste Domaine Carneros Pinot Noir from California

    Have you ever been driving down the road, completely relaxed, or maybe just standing in line at the grocery store, when suddenly your chest tightens? Out of nowhere, a wave of anxiety hits you, even though absolutely nothing is wrong in that moment. What we do know is something is wrong - the weight of the world is on your shoulders, and that uninvited elephant in the room just got bigger. So, what do you do? Today, we are talking about unexpected anxiety—the kind that crashes the party when you least expect it. We will share where you brain goes and why, more importantly, give you practical, quick tools to ground yourself and regain control. After all the crazy talk about moving/kid graduations/new roles in life, and because we believe in pairing heavy conversations with moments of comfort, we are opening a special bottle today. We are pouring a glass of the Domaine Carneros Pinot Noir. We will dive deep into its tasting notes, explore the unique cool-climate terroir of the Los Carneros region, and talk about why this elegant red is the perfect companion for winding down. So, grab your favorite glass, take a deep breath, and let’s get into it. Support the show

    Beneath The Surface and Beyond the Aethestic; A Healthy VS Looking Good Debate. THEN we taste Craggy Range Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand.

    In this episode, we’re popping the cork on the difference between looking fit and actually being healthy. We dive into the "aesthetic trap"—why a six-pack isn't always a sign of wellness—and why the best health hack might just be minding your own business. (inside joke - listen to become an insider!) To keep things crisp, we’re pairing the conversation with a tasting of New Zealand’s finest Sauvignon Blanc from Craggy Range: exploring what makes this wine special to us, while discussing how to filter out the noise of unsolicited advice. This is about drinking well and drinking mindfully!  Grab a glass and join us for a session that’s high in acidity and low in judgment.

    The Reunion Episode: Wine, Wellness, and What You Have Missed

    If you were a listener of a Podcast called "Workouts and Wine" - welcome back. If you are a new listener, then WELCOME to "A Life Well Poured"! Ever feel like your 'wellness routine' needs a little more mindfulness, intention, and then, sure, a glass of wine would be nice?  Join Christine D'Angelo and Susan Pajak, two friends navigating the wild world of adulting, self-care, and what good looks like when it comes to quality in everything - including our wine. In our very first episode, we are laying it all out on the table: why we started this show, our personal (and sometimes messy) wellness journeys, and exactly what you can expect from us every week. Grab a glass, pull up a chair, and let’s get real about living authentically—one sip at a time.
