Puns anyone?

We apologize for being a bit distant on the IG lately - truly, we’ve just been living life in moment! ☀️🍹💃🏽 And we hope you have been as well this summer 😎

But here we are, back at it with the FRIENDCHIP SERIES! ✨

In this series, we will be talking all things friendship! Life would be sad and lonely without friends, but man, it sure can be a struggle to prioritize hanging out when you got a buttload of “adulting” to do 😒 Life gets in the way, plans get canceled, mental health struggles, stress, all the things.

We hope you enjoy this upcoming series and would lalalalalalove to know what qualities you believe make a true friend? (You’re a truuUuuuUuuuuUuuue friend *Hannah Montana reference ifykyk)

Part 2 of the EMPTY OCEAN SERIES IS NOW LIVE! 🐠🗑🥤

In this episode, we wanted to discuss a recent event that is having a devastating effect on our oceans. The "Dead Zone" that has been appearing in the Gulf of Mexico over the last 50 years has repeatedly reached record size in recent years due to a 30% higher increase in nitrogen and phosphorus from the Mississippi river runoff. We share our experiences handling the increase in climate tragedies and address some steps to deal with climate anxiety.

PS: Have a great week everyone and please don’t hesitate to reach out, provide feedback, and let us know what you want to hear next!

Being vegan in 2020 ain’t too shabby, especially when you live in Boston where vegan restaurants are plentiful and BOMB. 💯 In this episode, we try our best to narrow down our favorite restaurants as well as give you some tips on how to order vegan at non-vegan restaurants. 🤔 From Thai and Vietnamese to Ethiopian and Mexican, you can truly find a vegan option no matter where you go these days. The key is knowing what ingredients to look out for and how to ask your waiter/waitress for that veg-friendly option when it’s not clearly labeled on the menu! While this episode covers Boston-specific restaurants, we hope you are inspired to seek out the best vegan eats in your city/town because trust us, they are on the rise EVERYWHERE!
