Regular Guys and Gals it's YOUR day and a tired Kels and Kev are back to usher it in.  Holding down the fort again this week for Maria, Kev and Kels deep dive into the ramifications behind 'half measure' approaches to relationships, work, life and even leisure. Piggy backing off interviews this week with Adam Grant and David Dobrik, K and K discuss the healthy form of procrastinating and the power of doing nothing. Kev describes how to have a 'carnie vacation' and why it is the most effective kind of vaca to partake in, especially during tough times.  In addition, the duo discuss how to turn a 'coffee and a cruller' into the most polite means to engage in discussion and avoid confrontation while standing your ground.  They contemplate this weekend being Night of 1000 Kweenz 2 while agreeing we are all #Kweenz no matter what. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

She listened to her gut, not the haters and just kept fighting, pushing and. BELIEVING.  How did Jamie continue to push through the criticism? How did she go from less than $1,000 in her bank account, 22 bank loan rejections and being a Denny's waitress to the CEO of a Billion Dollar company? How did she do it all and continue to do it all with light and kindness? She divulges all in our interview.   Tag a friend below who has big dreams yet feels defeated and that the odds are stacked against them. The  journey and advice Jaime shares on @BetterTogetherwithMaria  will help any budding entrepreneur or anyone with big goals. I learned a ton myself.

Jillian shares 5 quick tips to getting healthy during COVID, how the pandemic has pushed everyone to their limits and how that may be a great thing.
