In today’s solo episode, we are chatting about embracing the cringe and not letting people’s opinions get in the way! Raeann posted about her butt acne issues and her community came through with helpful advice, the girlies understand. Especially helpful as we’re in our sporty girl era, Kristina is excited about joining a beach volleyball team and Raeann is currently training for a half-marathon. We also chat about our expectations when it comes to surprises… catch Raeann’s couch boy 2.0 surprise reaction with Gabe on our Patreon. Also soon to be on Patreon, Kristina drops that she’s having sleep coach, Steph Fischer, guest star to give advice to us parents who need a little help getting our little ones to sleep. In pop culture news, we dissect our favorite rom-coms and swoon over Tom Brady in his latest feature on The Roast.   Okay, let’s get into why being a little cringe is not a bad thing! Our opinion is that to be successful you must do things that are considered cringe-worthy, especially when you’re just starting out. Kristina and Raeann relive their moments of cringe and why those moments also got them to where they are now in their careers. Once we get rid of this limiting belief and stop caring about other people’s opinions, we can truly start being our most successful, badass selves. Post the TikTok, join the sports league, start painting, write the book, do whatever it is that you feel excited and passionate about and don’t worry about what others say or think, they’re just jealous anyways!
