 I’m thrilled to talk to Angelo about today’s topic—the importance of muscle, protein and amino acids for women—because not only is he deeply involved with researchers and with the science around these topics, but he’s going to make it really easy to understand.   Also, we talk about his upbringing, two very traumatic experiences that he went through as a teen, and how he founded his incredible wellness company & brand… Kion! We was stabbed at 16 while on a bad LSD trip and I was completely mindblown hearing about his journey of healing and his spiritual outlook on life ever since.   Angelo is the co-founder and CEO of Kion, an active lifestyle, supplement and functional food company dedicated to helping people fully experience a fun and active life by providing pure, energy-enhancing solutions.   We discuss everything from the importance of amino acids, what amino acids even are, why muscle is important for our body composition, how we typically get amino acids, the difference between protein & aminos, and so much more!!!   Visit www.getkion.com/BALANCED for 20% on monthly deliveries and 10% on one-time purchases.   We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!

I am so honored to have my sweet friend Samantha Demarkles of @SamanthaInPerson on the show today.

We are spilling the tea ALL the tea today with none other than Kenzie Burke. She is one of my dearest friends in the world, and we are talking about a subject that if often seen in the world as very taboo: friendship breaks, the ebbs & flows of friendship, & answering the question everyone has been wanting to know: are we still friends? In this convo we share from our hearts where we have each been for the last many months, what our friendship has looked like, and where both of us are reflecting and becoming new people. There is a lot of transformation up in here. I love this soul VERY much and I am excited for you guys to hear this conversation. I want to thank Kenzie for being so open & vulnerable in this episode with me — I know it will help so many people, especially those of you who are hyper independent & full of fire like she is. Come tell us on IG if you are more of a Kenzie or more of a Jordan, and tell us your thoughts on the ebbs & flows of friendship. Have you been in this position before? How did you deal with it? Tell us what you’d like to hear for a part two, and we will be back with everything you wanna hear. <3 We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!
