The Glowdown Podcast

Sam & Hallie talk to Megan Hackett - a nutrition coach, general manager at @scorchsrq & a certified personal trainer. Sometimes we overdo it during the holidays, or we just say f**k it to any foods with nutritional value between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Or we say, "I'll just wait until January 1st to start eating healthy." Megan shares her wisdom with us to help us avoid that all-or-nothing holiday eating mindset. She teaches us how to indulge without overdoing it and without the guilt.

What are you still holding onto? Say hello to saying goodbye. We talk to Rob Ruvin, Founder of Adios Gear, about the meaning of letting go. He & Hallie share their stories that come to mind when they think of "Adios." Check out adiosgear.com to learn more about the story.

"Guess who's back, back again..♪ ♫ ♬" After a little hiatus, we're back to catch you glowgetters up on what's kept us so busy over the past 5-ish months. And as a bonus, we're doing it over some healthy cocktails! Tune in for four better-for-you drink recipes, and to hear our latest and biggest life updates.
