Happy Friday fellow Kweenz with a reminder that it’s YOUR day and that we have another episode of RGF! It was a long week for Kels and Kev as the duo continue to wear many hats to keep Better Together afloat. Their fatigue didn’t stop them from discussing WWE Hall of Famer Bob Backlund and his submission hold ‘the Chicken Wing’ and the metaphor within: how we end up in bad situations or at the mercy of bad people and the role awareness, or lack thereof, plays in it all. Kev and Kels discuss 7 things that block awareness and how awareness is generally an attribute of those who are successful. They briefly touch upon narcissists and whom they generally prey upon (hello Heal Squad) while offering two amazing, easy and cost effective beauty tips, PLUS how chair recliners aren’t just for Regular Guys, they’re for Regular Gals, too - and they can help raise your awareness (whaaaaaat????). The Regular Duo shared other tidbits and anecdotes in between it all while of course reminding us that YASSSS, WE ARE ALL KWEENZ!!!!
