Episode 127: The Quickie: How To Eat Nutritiously On A Budget

Apparently, a big part of adulting is learning how to feed yourself, but with all the expensive health foods and skyrocketing grocery prices, eating well can feel financially overwhelming. So this week we’re talking about how to balance our nutrition without breaking the bank, because if we’ve learned anything on our wellness journeys, it’s that there is no one-size-fits-all solution for healthy eating and finding what works for your body can have a huge impact on how you feel.

Episode 61: We Turned Two! Our Biggest Life Lessons Learned

If you’re fresh out of a breakup and are feeling alllll of the feels, this one's for you. Navigating a breakup is never easy, but you’re far from alone. A study last year showed 25% of Canadians between the ages of 18-24 split up during the pandemic, and 5 million Canadians have experienced a recent breakup.

Experts say it can take 6-8 weeks to get over the initial intensity of heartbreak, but with a lack of access during lockdowns to the normal stuff we do to get over our exes, and an ongoing mental health crisis, the “getting over it” part has been hard lately. That leaves us with the inner work we have to do: Finding out who we are again, rewriting our narratives, filling that void, and loving ourselves first.

We called in breakup expert Lindsey Ellison to help us fall in love with our life again and manifest the dream partner that we deserve. Because when you can feel happy on your own, you're raising the bar for the next partner you bring into your life.



It’s Teach Me How To Adult’s two year anniversary and to celebrate, we’re switching things up a little! We have learned, and changed, so much since starting this podcast so this week we’re reminiscing and reflecting on some of the best advice from the experts we’ve interviewed.

From managing money and navigating friendships to improving our wellbeing and learning to love ourselves, this week’s quickie is an essential rundown of the lessons that have truly changed our lives.

Listen to our chat to learn more about:

  • Our quick takeaways on investing, negotiation and working out 

  • The importance of friendships throughout different stages of life 

  • How to hack your mindset to improve your life

  • The transformative power of finding confidence and self-love

Thank you so much for supporting us! ​​We’d love to know what your biggest takeaway from the podcast has been.
