Ep. 518: Our Changing Relationship to Drinking

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/08/23

In the aftermath of our divorces, we turned to alcohol maybe a little more than we’re proud of. But hey, you gotta do what you gotta do, and sometimes that means not always having the healthiest coping mechanisms. But since then, we’ve stopped going out at much, met our significant others, and developed new goals around longevity, so our drinking habits have changed. We have new boundaries around alcohol and we’re far more aware of the things that trigger us to drink. It wasn’t an overnight change,

Ep. 517: The Practice of Asking For Help

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/08/21

Some people find doing everything on their own to be difficult, but for us, it’s asking for help that ends up being the harder task. Asking for help can feel like admitting to failure, not being good enough, or opening ourselves up for judgement and it feels safer to struggle alone than to admit we need assistance. But when we think about it, we LOVE to help the people we love, so maybe it’s true that people love to help us, too. It’s like the old proverb says, “If you want to go far, go together.”

Ep. 516: Thinking Of Starting A Side Hustle?

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/08/16

We’re really passionate about women making money for themselves. Obviously in an ideal world, women in partnerships don’t have to worry about being the primary financial provider if that’s not what they want to do, but having a way to financially support ourselves during our unexpected divorces was pivotal for us, and we want every women to have the option to take care of herself if she ever needs to. So if you’ve been thinking about starting an online side-hustle, for whatever reason, Jill is

Ep. 515: Having Access To Your Partner's Phone Password

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/08/14

Would you break up with your partner if they didn’t allow you access to their cell phone? It certainly seems like a weird dealbreaker to have, but after going through infidelity at the hands of our exes, we can empathize. Private cell phones (and computers for that matter) are causing new problems that weren’t possible before, and while everyone deserves to have privacy, some motherfuckers out there are acting sneaky. Ultimately, it’s up to you and your partner, and what kind of privacy you feel is

Ep. 514: Being "Realistic" About Our Dreams

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/08/09

We consider ourselves dreamers and big believers in what’s possible, but we do believe in the utility of being “realistic.” At least, being realistic about what you’re willing to do, and realistic about the timeline you want to achieve things in. Every human achievement seemed impossible at one point, and to realize them, it took people who were bold enough to think of them and resilient enough to keep trying, even when things were difficult. It’s never a bad idea to be realistic with your goals,

2024/08/07

It’s been a while since we recorded a personal episode of this podcast and we felt like it might be time to catch you up to date on what we’ve been doing, Bestie. The world is just as chaotic as ever, meanwhile we’ve been sick, vacationing, and grieving. You know, all the usual stuff. We promise not to be so distant and keep you more in the loop next time—or maybe we won’t.

2024/08/02

When we started this podcast, we were somewhat newly divorced and trying to navigate the world on our own for the first time in a long time. We weren’t sure how to be alone, but we had to. Maybe you can relate—when is the last time you did something all by yourself?

Ep. 511: The Side Hustle You Didn't Know You Needed

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/07/31

There’s a new kind of side hustle you can do from almost anywhere: user generated content. After Danny saw a friend making thousands a month for seemingly little output, she had to do some investigation. For the past few months, she’s been dabbling with UGC so she can give you to lowdown on the the truths, the lies, and what’s possible if you decide to try it for yourself.What is UGC?

2024/07/26

There’s so much more to being healthy than just being “thin” and the closer we get to perimenopause and menopause, the more we realize that. Today Jill is chatting with Tina Hupert of Carrots N Cake about minerals, metabolism, mindset, and how important they are to maintaining our health. We always hear about macronutrients, but no one seems to care about micronutrients and the effect that a lack of minerals has on our energy levels and metabolism. Sometimes we can get so focused on being the

509. Knowing How Much Money is "Enough"

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/07/24

We’re the kind of women who love to work and yes, we love to make money. There’s so much moralizing about money and whether having it makes someone good or bad, but to us, money is just a tool. So how do we know when we’ve made “enough” of it? American culture is so focused on always striving for more, and while that’s not necessarily a bad thing, at a certain point money stops helping us live the life we want, and isn’t that what really matters? We call this The Best Life podcast for a reason

Ep. 508: A Partner's Permission to Change Your Looks

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/07/19

We’re independent women and we don’t need men to validate us—but we do still care what our partners think. But there’s definitely a balance that needs to be struck between changing your appearance whenever you want and asking your partner for permission to change. We want to be attracted to them, and for them to be attracted to us, so it’s not a bad idea to check in before you go cutting off all your hair or getting a boob job. But at the end of the day, it is your body, and you should be able to

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/07/17

Are you too old to start an online business? The short answer is yes. The long answer is of course not! Look, we don’t know about you, but we don’t want to take a 20-year-old’s advice about anything. The older we get, the less we care about impressing the younger generations or about looking like we once did. Now, we see bad-ass women in their 50’s, 60’s, and beyond and we want to be like them! There will always be someone looking for help from a person like you. The question is whether or not

Ep. 506: Why Am I Not "Over It" Yet?

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/07/12

Shitty things happen in life, and don’t we know it. And we all know that healing isn’t linear, but haven’t you ever though to yourself, “Why aren’t I over this yet?” Emotional wounds cut deep, and they’re often compounded childhood wounds, which just means that it’ll take longer to “heal” than you might expect—or want. But Bestie, you’ve been through some hard shit. Us, too. And that’s something we should be proud of.Why am I not over it yet? [2:55]Giving grace to yourself after loss

Ep. 505: 10 Ways to Cultivate Meaningful Friendships

2024/07/10

There’s a part of getting older that we never expected: it’s getting harder to maintain meaningful friendships. The people who were once our tight-knit circle have become strangers as career, families, and lives change. It’s not a crime to outgrow friendships, but if we want meaningful connections, then we’re going to have to make a real effort in cultivating them.

2024/07/05

We’re fresh off a 30-Day Instagram Reels Challenge and our results were… nothing like we imagined they would be. When we started our businesses online, we never predicted that we’d somehow have to turn into videographers, too. So we figured we’d lean in to Reels and see how it changed our followings. Spoiler alert: it didn’t. Well, at least not in a glaringly obvious way. We improved our video editing, pissed some people off, and learned a lot about what actually grows a social media account.

Ep. 502: The Man vs. Bear Debate

The Best Life Podcast ·

2024/06/28

If we were trapped in a forest, would we rather be stuck with a man or a bear? If you’re a woman, you already know our answer because yours is probably the same: the bear. It’s not that we hate men, but in our experiences, men can be scary, unkind, and unsafe. Every single woman we know has a story about some man acting creepy and aggressive. “No” is never enough of an answer for that type of guy, and there’s always that lingering fear that by telling him no, he’ll get angry and take it out on us

Is it just us, or is everything on social media just engagement farming now? People are posting videos of them crying or doing “good deeds” because it get views, and it feels really phony and a little bit cringe. We’re all for vulnerability online, but there’s a difference in sharing vulnerably and pretending to be sad so that you get likes on Instagram.

2024/06/19

Grief seems to have been a recurring theme in our lives, but we know now that it’s not just us—everyone is grieving. Grief isn’t always caused by big tragedies and devastating events. It can happen in the every day moments of rejection and misunderstanding, it can happen in the moments we feel overlooked and invisible. The world is silently grieving the versions of ourselves we’ve lost to the everyday pains in life. Today we brought back one of our favorite guests, Christina Rasmussen, an expert on
