Life is messy, beautiful, heartbreaking, happy, and everything in between. It’s those moments that help shape us, give us insight into who we are at our core, and hopefully help craft relationships that will last a lifetime. Events like loss, birth, marriage, graduation and so many more are like road markers along our personal paths, and things don’t always (for better or worse) go as planned. But it’s the story and the results that define who we are - and it’s those life-changing stories that will be coming to you this January with Jaj, who recently found herself a widow with 2 young kids, and Rylee, a budding entrepreneur whose big dreams and even bigger drive are being juggled with the adventure of being a newlywed. Their stories aren’t perfect, but that’s not what we’re here for. We’re learning as we go and hopefully, coming out better than we began. Listen to “Good As New” an imperfectly perfect podcast sharing the moments that break us and build us stronger.

    False Alarm…It’s Just Gas

    I got the ugliest nails of my life, had a cancerous mole cut off my back (get your skin checked), and Jaj is finally going to New York this weekend to get Popup Bagels like the rest of the internet.

    At 19 weeks pregnant, she woke up in the middle of the night, fully convinced she was in labor. Nope. Gas.

    We also get into MJ the movie, our aggressively strong opinions on Secret Lives and Real Housewives of SLC, plus your absolutely unhinged work horror stories. We’re talking period blood on a doctor’s pants, coworkers asking for feet pics, and someone pooping their pants at work and simply deciding to push through the shift.

    Human resilience is incredible.

    Anyway, after this we’re going to the mall to unwind. It's been a week.

    Jaj is finally on the ups after four months of pregnancy hell (don't ask about the Zofran side effects — we will tell you), neither of us actually checked out so we live-shopped the Sephora sale, I went to a bachelorette party in Midway and Jaj ate deep-fried funeral potatoes, and we have a lot of thoughts on Alex vs. Alex. And not naming names but someone in Jaj's cul-de-sac needs to learn how a driveway works.

    We're back with a big secret (that you probably already know if you follow our socials), a 7-mile Central Park bike ride nobody signed up for, a Legoland review that should be a warning label, and Sticky Bestie bags that have been in transit since March are somewhere… Rylee would move to Nashville tomorrow and Coachella can kiss our ass at $8,000 a ticket.
