Oh wow. We're back for round 2 of the Em & Em podcast adventures. We're back with one of my best friends, Emily Cossin, for another episode on sex, love, relationships, and everything in between. We opened up a Q&A box on Instagram for you all to ask whatever you want, and guess what: 99.9% of all questions were pertaining to sex and relationships. So, we're talking about sex and relationships. He...

Today we're bringing a repeat guest back on the show for a very different episode than our first interview. Alyssa Olenick, aka the Honey Badger Mountain Goat, is one of my favorite internet humans. A brilliant PhD student, an incredible content creator, and just a really cool human, today's conversation with Lyss gets... really real. We talk all about experiencing large growth on social media in...

You all are in for a TREAT today... First thing's first: today's conversation is definitely more adult in nature, so not the best for listening around little ones, at work, etc. Probably best with headphones OR listening with your gal pals if we're being honest. Today, I chatted with one of my best friends, Emily Cossin. What we covered:  -how we met by dating the same guy (it's a good story) -let...

He's back for another episode that's sure to help you on your own journey towards living in your conscious truth. In our chat today, we talk about:  -Moving from DC to LA -The moment he knew he...

Today's episode is going to be all about productivity. 2020 was a year where more of us transitioned to a work from home structure, and that transition was one of the things I was asked about the most. I've worked from home from my computer as an online fitness coach since December 2015, and I also did a good chunk of my degree online when I moved out of state. So, needless to say I've gotten pret...

It's a new year, which often means new year's fitness resolutions. I wanted to take some time in today's episode to talk about why continuing to under eat chronically may be making it harder, or actually impossible, for you to reach your fat loss goals. From the physiological to psychological, chronic under-feeding can thwart your fat loss efforts and start to have negative effects on your health....

Now more than ever with lockdowns happening worldwide, many people are spending more time alone than they normally do. For some people, this is really uncomfortable and scary. I wanted to record today's episode to talk through some of my own pivotal periods of solitude within my life that ultimately led to me becoming the woman I am today, who loves herself, who is herself, and who ENJOYS time wit...

Ironic how I talk about dudes ghosting me in this episode since I clearly ghost the podcast on a regular basis... karma? Not sure. BUT HEY. We're here now and we're happy to be here. This description is gonna be short and sweet: we're doing a full 2020 recap. I put up a question box on IG for topics for this return-cast, and so many of you sweet souls just asked, "Really, how are you?" So, I thoug...

I get asked all the time "how I'm so confident in being myself." It honestly makes me sad that this is a common question, because isn't that what we all should be confident in being? Today's show was inspired by a conversation with a friend about standing strong in yourself, and it turned into an episode about some of my story and how I developed self confidence.  TOPICS: -The conversation with a...

A lot has happened in the US and in the world since we last connected on the show. The tragic death of George Floyd (and of others like Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and countless others) brought about a turning point in history and social justice. Black lives matter, and we're here today to pass/share the mic with an amazing black woman in fitness and in academia, Dr. Brittany Mastellar. Dr. Bri...

Returning guest and close personal friend Austin Current ( austincurrent_ ) is back to discuss what the maintenance phase of contest prep truly looks like. There are a lot of misconceptions about a maintenance phase and it doesn't get the credit it deserves. We also get super deep in this conversation, talking about the evolution of prep and what Austin's life has been like outside of prep and fit...

I am back and today I have my prep coach Jason Theobald better known as ScoobyPrep to talk all things thyroid. This can be a confusing topic and Jason has been coaching for 14 years with a level of knowledge that is pretty unrivaled in the competition space. We talk about not only what some common thyroid dysfunction symptoms are but the importance of understanding labwork and the role of T3 plays...

Solo episode again today covering a topic near and dear to my heart. I am in the middle of my prep and getting messages and DM's saying that you potentially want to compete at some point as well, I needed to give it to you straight. I want you equipped with the knowledge and reality of what it takes to compete and place where you want to. There's a lot more that goes into prep than most talk about...

Needless to say, as you can see by the length of the episode, this episode is definitely on brand of #jackedan...

Just me ridin solo on this episode taking your questions all surrounding relationships. Understand before you press play that my answers are just that: mine.

Questions include: - Books on Relationships - Online Dating...
