Heal Squad x Maria Menounos

Hay Kweenz! We made it through another week. It's another edition of Regular Guy Friday. The episode may be a bit of a downer as the Kweenz discuss the dying process. It's a subject we rarely wish to discuss or face, even though it's the surest reality we will experience in life. From taking ego out of the process to remembering who the final days are about (the person passing) the duo share actions that have helped them and loved ones. The truth is revealed about the purpose of funerals: funerals are for the living not the dead. They also discuss the best means of preparation and the best means to honor those who have passed, along with why gravesites may be of value to those alive.  The Western 'Disney' view of death is covered vs. a perhaps more healing, mature and healthy means that other cultures subscribe to.  Our life here is brief, our loved ones never leave us  and we will see them again soon enough.  Kels and Kev discuss this and how they coped with their losses.  On a lighter note, Kelsey teased a Saturday of 500 Kweenz up in Boston with Kev's family and how we should view more tasks and periods in our lives as adventures rather than duties we dread.  We were reminded AGAIN that 50% of life is showing up an that the other 50% is knowing your a Kween.  Actually, whose kiiding who, it's 100% about knowing you're a Kween, Keenze. Bye Betches. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

Woman's Day Editor In Chief, author of Your Fully Charged Life and Better Together friend sat in with the Heal Squad to discuss the power of positive mindsets and how to achieve and maintain one even in the worst of times. Meagan opens up about her own negativity growing up, along with her best friend's suicide at age 16 and what steps she took to change it.  Meagan drops so many gems from making your mess your message to gratitude not being negotiable to happiness being a state of 'doing' not 'being' to seeing the pandemic as the Great Life Edit to Dopamine Dressing to finding purpose from your traumas and how to be the boss of your own brains.  Somehow there was room to discuss the need for specificity in breaking habits, how to build resilience, beat FOMO and how negativity loves company. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

Christina, Maria and the Heal Squad to discuss the science behind each of our auras. We learn how there are special aura portrait photographers and cameras that capture images of us.  When the portraits are printed, the colors that show up in those photographs explain who we are and what we are experiencing at the moment. Maria covers the process which could be a revolution in self discovery.  http://www.radianthuman.com/about  https://www.instagram.com/radianthuman_/?hl=en  https://www.amazon.com/Radiant-Human-Exploring-Aura/dp/0062877151 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

Hey Kweenz, we Regular Guys and Gals made it through another week. Kels is back from LA discussing her newly elevated lips (thanks to our new bffs at Younique Med Spa @realdryou) while Kev discusses receiving his second shot and how the recovery briefly ignited anger and his shadow self. The conversation led to a discussion on how many healers and experts don't walk the walk and why that's perfectly okay. Soon the duo revealed the greatest tool, one can have in life and why and how that tool will keep you young. They segwayed into cosmetic surgery, gave tips on how to get the very best service and discussed how paying more doesn't always mean you're getting the best..PLUS talked how cosmetic surgery is often looked down upon, but if it's something that at the end of the day makes you feel good/better, that's what it's all about! The episode ended on a positive note with the two agreeing that we are all born "Kweenz" and one last reminder/lesson in the proper way to say 'bitches' (i.e. Betches). The Regular Duo ended as a united front, reciting, in unison, a perfectly synced 'Bye Betches...' Bye Betches! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support
