Mindset Unlimited: Tips, Tools, and Inspiration for Women in a Time of ChangeHow to Cure ComparisonitisSend me a text!How to cure comparisonitis starts by understanding the cause and that this isn’t just a “you” problem. It’s something that impacts you, your confidence, your sense of self, and your well-being, so it feels deeply personal. Since it’s internal, comparisonitis feels like a habit of comparing yourself to others in one or multiple areas. It’s usually triggered in an area that already feels endangered in some way – often things like financial success or belonging. It turns into a cycle of validation seeking where you feel inadequate or less than, doubt yourself...2023-09-2736 min
Story NerdBridget Jones's Diary: why we love herBecause the novel is so funny and easy to read, and because the film is a romcom, it's easy to dismiss Bridget Jones's Diary as a simple story that Helen Fielding simply dashed off on a weekend.

Even though it's a lighthearted story, Bridget is still a dimensional character and that's why we love her.For access to writing templates and worksheets, and more than 70 hours of training (all for free), subscribe to Valerie's Inner Circle: www.valeriefrancis.ca/innercircleFor information about Valerie's upcoming webinars, visit...2023-09-2031 min

Falling in Love MontageThe Best of MeBy unpopular demand, we close out Marchden (or Marsden March) with The Best of Me, the film (a) critic has called, "…a contrived manipulation and an insult to female sensibilities." Written by suspected anti-Semite Nicholas Sparks and filmed in the breathtaking bayou, we try to love this movie with the oppressive sincerity of "lucky roughneck" Dawson Cole (Marsden). It's a miracle.2019-03-311h 09

I recently went to a Podcast Meet-up and we discussed when do you listen, like what time of day do you listen to pods and there was a variety of answers..some listened to them while driving - typical and expected response, some listened while cleaning house, making supper but then a couple people were discussing which ones they listened to at certain times and why?

And it's perfect that we all LOVE Some Kind of Wonderful. After years of friendship, we finally courted Amy Pascal. We didn't paint her portrait, or take her to the Hollywood Bowl, or spend our college savings on her, but we did ask her to reschedule with us at least a half dozen times so you...2018-12-021h 50

Yes, the queens of youth and beauty you know and tolerate are finally tackling the queens of youth and beauty you know and love, and we (re)watched 1992's Death Becomes Her, in which Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn seriously put at least one of the Fs in "BFF."

Falling in Love MontageOcean's 8 (w/ Malcolm Nygard)We've assembled the team, we've got the know-how, we've rented the disc from Redbox, and we're ready to blow this thing wide open. Fearless leader of the Flying Machine network and Ocean's [Numeral] fanboy Malcolm Nygard is back to talk with us about the 2018 female-fronted heist movie and whether (Danny Ocean's) sisters are really doin' it for themselves. And by "doin'," I mean stealing, and by "it," I mean tens of millions of dollars' worth of jewels. You can hear more from Malcolm on the Flying Machine Content Channel. 2018-10-011h 49

Falling in Love MontageMumford (w/ Brian Flanagan)The long-anticipated cross-over episode is here! Okay, it's not technically a cross-over, maybe it's just an episode we've been dying* to do with a guest we've been dying to have. Lawrence Kasdan's 1999 Mumford offers no exception to deception and this entire character-driven comedy/drama/maybe chick-flick(?) hinges on one man's lie. Here to help us interrogate this movie is the mayor of Liar City and my** best friend, Brian Flanagan. Prepare for more conflict in the episode than the movie. Sisters Helen and Valerie, wait for it, have strong and different opinions about this film!?!?! WHAT...2018-09-031h 29

Not so much chick, not so much flick -- we wanted to spotlight a new queer web series currently streaming on Amazon, After Forever. Joining us for the entire discussion is costar of the series Mitchell Anderson, known also as the founder of Atlanta's great MetroFresh restaurant, Ross Werkman on Party of Five, and one of the sexiest TV doctors of the last 20 years (People, 2005), among other things.

We've got our second fiance(e) guest pairing, gay best friends of the show, Allyson and Mariela! We had a gay old time, and we hope you do too. You know, we want you to be happy.

We collectively watched Matthew McConaughey's least enjoyable movies (highly subjective statement, depending) and we survived. We just kept living — exactly as McConaughey dictated. We planned a wedding, we moved out of Mom and Dad's house, we visited the past and glimpsed the future, and now we are on one last treasure hunt — searching for GOLD!

The only thing that can rectify this mood is the company of our spectacular guest, Nick Wood.

In order to get enough wind in our sails to dissect 2006's Failure to Launch, we had to beg Ryan Healey, of Tales from the Static podcast to watch this film with us. OR — was it the other way around? You'll never know (unless you listen to this episode) which is, btw, just as charming as our guest (i.e., hella charming). *Because it's Mother's Day and we love Kathy Bates, that's why. 2018-05-141h 41

Okay, what's better than two sisters on a podcast talking about a super awesome movie? Oh, so I heard one of you say a million dollars and now that I'm getting into this I'm realizing there is probably more than one answer. Okay, so yes, that is correct.

Friend to the podcast Jan poked us until we put her choices to a vote, and our beloved listeners voted overwhelmingly to hear about everyone's favorite chick sports flick. Expect some more fan picks and Jan picks in the future. We bumble our way through the plot, objectify David Strathairn, talk to a Matt, and make too many puns.

Also, the movies we clipped are from last spring so... ...while we're busy figuring it out, please enjoy these outtakes from—like I just said—last spring. ***edit*** Around 26:21 I incorrectly reference a letter as unsent. Ladies and gents, the letter in question was in fact sent via email. Thank you, that is all. 2018-03-0644 min
Falling in Love MontageUnleashedIf you're looking for Jet Li, you won't find him here. For some reason or another, we talk about Finn Taylor's 2016 comedy fantasy, Unleashed. It's your basic wish fulfillment flick with a generous layer of problematic events. But hey, Kate Micucci, right? It's currently streaming on Netflix but be very careful with what you do with that information. We also spend some extra time talking with a Matt, and this time—we have very similar feelings about the movie. 2018-02-191h 14
