Our summer kickoff pool party exceeded all of our expectations! We’re excited to share our favorite moments and takeaways from the event in this episode. It was so empowering and exciting to see women of all shapes and sizes feel comfortable and confident lounging by the pool and meeting new friends. Thank you so much for coming, for all of your support, and for being such amazing members of our community. We're obsessed with you guys and can't wait to do it again! We’re also answering three of your questions in an Ask Away segment, sharing our advice for easing wedding-day pressure, tips for getting back into a fitness routine, and ways to feel more comfortable investing in your wardrobe.   “One of the girls was saying, ‘You know when you're drunk in a club bathroom and all the girls are like hyping each other up and it's just the best positive energy? That is what the whole event felt like.’ That was so special. That was so sweet.” - Raeann   What We Talk About: Getting ready for the pool party Our favorite parts of the event Activities and vendors at the pool party Stories from chatting with guests After party shenanigans What we would’ve done differently Ask away:   Taking the pressure off of how you look on the day of your wedding Advice for a fitness rest How to feel more comfortable investing in your wardrobe   “I could not believe at the after party how many people seem like they've been best friends forever.
