Can We Just...14. Table for 1, Please, featuring Christina TanSend us a textAnd, we are back! This week on the mic we are chatting about being…SINGLE. Forget the idea that it’s a bad thing. There is so much to love about choosing to be a single woman. For some, it takes time to build up the confidence to be comfortable in your own presence. For others, it’s the only way to be. We want to celebrate the joys of being solo and also break some stereotypes around women who are single past a certain age (hello - Samantha Jones!).On the ta...2022-10-0453 minCan We Just...13. Let Your Heart Run the Show Featuring Christina Tan & Dr. Divi ChandnaSend us a textHave you ever heard of intuitive coaching? Or, have you been curious about how to get in touch with your higher self? This week, we welcome our very first guest, Dr. Divi Chandna to the pod, to demystify some of the woo. As current clients, we asked Divi to share her story with us. During the episode, she talks about her transition from being a family doctor to an intuitive coach with a thriving practice. We’re big believers in her approach as she’s guided us through a deep, heart-centred way of heal...2022-09-1946 minCan We Just...12. A Labour Day Special: The Work We Aren’t Talking About, featuring Christina TanSend us a textHappy Labour Day everyone! We thought, what better time to dive into a discussion around work? But not your 9-5 or side hustle…we want to talk about invisible labour. This less recognized type of labour consists of unpaid work that is taken for granted, unrecognized and undervalued. Invisible labour permeates our relationships, careers, households, and even our sexual health. Tune into this week’s episode where we discuss:What does invisible labour look like?How does invisible labour traditionally impact women more than anyone else?What resources exist to under...2022-09-0554 minCan We Just...11.

Let That Sh*t Go, featuring Christina TanSend us a textSometimes we carry around a lot of psychic baggage without even knowing it. Sometimes we know we’ve got a tote bag full of toxic thoughts, but we’re not sure how to unload them. We know it’s an important step on the path to personal freedom, so we keep at it…looking for ways to release these invisible energy suckers. In this episode, we explore ways to question and reframe societal conditioning, shift anger to forgiveness, and look inwards to find the confidence to show up as our authentic selves.2022-08-1759 minCan We Just...9. Masculine and Feminine Energies: Finding Your Balance and Shifting the Patriarchy, featuring Christina TanSend us a textIn this week's episode, we discuss how to find balance by embracing both our masculine and feminine energy. We all have masculine and feminine energy within us and through our life experiences, we can develop one more than the other. Where masculine energy is more action-based, analytical and of the mind; feminine energy is more centered within the body, feeling-based and intuitive. It's normal to possess both and for most, it takes time to uncover what you need to lean into. With this awareness and framework, we look to see our imbalances and...2022-08-0240 minCan We Just...8. Time to Connect the Dots, featuring Christina TanSend us a textLately, we’ve been hearing a lot more about childhood wounds and trauma and how they can wire the way we see and move through the world as adults. Through each of our journeys with intuitive therapy, we’ve been able to explore how our upbringing has influenced who we are today. We also chat about things we can do to de-program the not-so-good stuff. It’s an eye-opening conversation, especially when viewed through the lens of trying to uncover why we’re so opposite. We connect the dots on some of these k...2022-07-0653 minCan We Just...7. Modern Love for Modern Times, featuring Christina TanSend us a textTimes have changed. Our society and culture have evolved and yet marriage has essentially stayed the same. Kind of crazy, when you think about it. We want and expect choices in every other area of our lives, so why not in love relationships? Let’s get creative and find more ways of doing modern love that work for modern times.

Shoot the Sh*t, featuring Christina TanSend us a textOne of the great things about starting something new, is not being attached to a format or certain way of doing it. While we definitely stressed about our first episodes, we’re trying to embrace more of a ‘let’s go with the flow’ attitude. Shoot the shit is in honour of just that. No singular topic. Zero planning. Nada notes. Just plug in the mics and hit record. Aaaaactually, maybe a little bit of planning...The random 💩 we shoot:Oscar Isaac, Oscar Isaac, Ossssscar IsaacCan a Task Rabbit replace a man?

Baggage Claim, featuring Christina TanSend us a textTrigger warning: This episode contains discussions that may be sensitive regarding sexual harassment and sexual assault. We both entered our twenties and the working world in the 90s…a time when sexual harassment and misogyny were served up on the regular. What was NBD back then, is now a WTAF. Especially in the corporate world. So yea, thankfully we’ve made some progress.BUT, we also can’t pretend all that bad shit didn’t happen…or pretend that it didn’t imprint on us in some way. So we rewind the...2022-05-0448 minCan We Just...4. Middle-Aged and Out of the Cage, featuring Christina TanSend us a textIt’s time to have some fun! We’ve all heard stories of people reentering the dating scene after ending long-term relationships….20+ years for some people! Like, was the internet even around back then?

Perfectionism is a Sneaky B*tch, featuring Christina TanSend us a textWe think perfectionism can suck the joy out of life. Imagine what your day would feel like if you weren’t so self-critical? If you weren’t so attached to the outcome or the idea of flawlessness?As two trying-to-recover perfectionists, we explore the origin of (our) perfectionism and discuss ways to work through it so we can liberate ourselves from this toxic mindset.Things we talk about: Are we unknowingly teaching our kids to be perfectionists?The depths of negative self-talk and how we’re working through itThe p...2022-03-2944 minCan We Just...2. Can We Be Better Friends? Featuring Christina TanSend us a textFriendships have been a hot topic the last couple of years, which is no surprise (hello pandemic, we see you). With that in mind, we wanted to dig in a little more to talk about the beauty, the joy, the struggles, the laughter…and why they are becoming more important than ever as we get older. Join us as we chat about what friendship means to us, things we’ve picked up along the way, and how we’re learning to navigate through our friction points.

Let’s Unf*ck the Idea of Anti-Aging featuring Christina TanSend us a textHow we view aging has been on our mind for a while and thankfully it’s starting to get more traction in the media and pop culture. We wanted to seize this opportunity to have a bigger conversation, to unpack some of these common narratives of what age looks and feels like at every decade. This is a hugely important and personal issue for us, so join us as we meander through our thought process on all things aging, including…Anti-aging as a marketing ployPressures to look young foreverDouble standards aroun...2022-02-2232 min
