Heal Squad x Maria Menounos

Hey Heal Squad! Earlier this week, Jenny McCarthy opened up about her diagnosis with mold toxicity, detoxing, and everything she went through to start feeling like herself again… so this Throwback Thursday felt like the perfect one to bring back.

Happy Sunday, Heal Squad! Kev opens this one by saying he just doesn’t like Sundays. Never really has. Even now, if he’s not working or busy, it just feels off.

Anne brings in a list about shame and it hits on all the little things… apologizing for no reason, over-explaining, not know...

Happy Potluck Saturday, Heal Squad! Today’s potluck starts with a throwback… an old Andy Griffith clip (A Face in the Crowd) that somehow launches us into… baton twirling?! Yes, really!

From there, it turns into one of those class...

Happy Regular Guy Friday, Heal Squad! This week starts with life in El Salvador,  adapting on the fly, why Kev’s backpack and “swimmies” are suddenly essential, and how quickly you realize what you actually need.
