Ep. 93 - A Stranger Abroad: Solo Traveling - with Adrien Behn

Today, storyteller and fellow podcaster, Adrien Behn, joins us on the pod! It was so cool to chat with Adrien about all things solo travel, the over-working culture, self-care, and more. If you haven’t already checked out her podcast, Strangers Abroad, we highly recommend it! We met Adrien after a podcasting event, at a karaoke bar! Adrien is pretty amazing. Her podcast is full of conversations with people she met while backpacking from Mexico to Peru. Adrien has so many amazing stories as a solo female traveler, we just know this episode will inspire you to plan a trip yourself!

Collagen is important for hair, skin, and nails, as well being a great source of protein. It’s important to us that our collagen is sustainably sourced + high quality, and that’s just what Further Foods produces! (It’s also a woman owned company - holla!)

Have you downloaded the app, Align Mindfulness, yet? It’s our fav new way to connect with ourselves throughout the day! We have our phones on us all of the time, and downloading this app has really helped us focus on the moment by sending out perfectly curated messages like, “What does the air smell like?” It also saves our answers to each message, which allows us to look back on our days and reflect. The app is totally free, so be sure to download it in your app store now!

We have been really loving this all-natural matcha mask from our friends over at Teami! Anytime we start to feel like a breakout is coming, we take a few minutes to apply the face mask and let it do its thing! Honestly, it feels like a little tingle massage for your face. Plus, we love that Teami makes quality products, with natural ingredients, which we LOVE. Head on over to teamiblends.com and use our code SHINE15 for 15% off your order!
