Today we have an episode all about food. Sandy recently had an exquisite dining experience, and Henny is about to become a restaurant kitchen of one. We also chat about some of our favourite kitchen gadgets (you’ve heard them before but they need some more love) and why homemade salad dressing just hits differently!

Today we get off to a raucous chat about all the wonderfully fun and funny things there are to watch on TV these days. Don’t worry - we do get serious too. Finally, we discuss the stigma related to GLP-1s and some cool new information we just learned about them too!

Today we’re sending some love to all of our WW buddies - whether we sat beside you in a workshop years ago, text back and forth from time to time, or continue to see you on a regular basis - we are so grateful for your friendship. We’re laughing about all different words of hatred Henny uses about pickles (there are at least 3 of them), and we’re learning about different types of hernias from Sandy. It’s called range, people.

For our series finale episode (Can we even call it that?), we wanted to thank each and every person who listened to us, engaged with us, and encouraged us throughout this podcast journey. For now, we say good-bye to the podcasting world, but we’re open to what the future holds for us.

This week’s question was so open-ended that we weren’t sure where it was going to take us. It ended up bringing us a delightful conversation about countries we’d love to visit and cities in which we’re currently living. What do you still want to know about us?

This week’s question was a fun and easy one! We both feel so fortunate to have built the friendship that we share today, and it was fun to talk about it a bit!

Join us as we chat about our decided effort to recommit to making healthy choices, building healthy habits, and removing those unhelpful behaviours that have been creeping back into our lives. We also discuss a recent headline in the Globe and Mail about doctors prescribing weight loss drugs and/or bariatric surgery to teens. Finally, we talk a bit about Sandy’s upcoming birthday vacation! It’s very exciting!

This week’s question seemed pretty quick and easy at first, but then we both got ourselves second-guessing a bit! (Well, Henny was more unsure than Sandy, to be honest.) And at the end of the day, we think we both answered incorrectly! Whoops!
