[Child of a B2B Marketer]

My dad works in B2B marketing, but I never really knew what that meant. Then one day my dad came by my school for Career day and told everyone in my class he was a big Roaz man. Then he just kept saying things like the bigger the Roaz the better. Over and over. My friends still laugh at me to this day. I think it means calculating a return on ad spend. One thing's for sure, I'll be known as the Roazman's Kid for the rest of my days. Why couldn't you just be a fireman or a lawyer? Why? You ruined my life, dad.

[Podcast Host]

Okay everyone, if you're listening to Climbing in Heels this week I have the most amazing best friend female duo behind Sakara Life, Danielle Dubois and Whitney Tingle on the pod this week. These gorgeous girls are so incredibly impressive. I cannot wait for you to hear the full interview. It's out tomorrow. But enjoy this quick little rapid round to get to know them a little better, okay? Biggest pet peeves.

[Danielle Dubois]

I mean, people are chewing with their mouth open.

[Podcast Host]

Oh, my God, me too. Oh, my God, me too. And so many close people in my life do it, and it makes me scream. Beach or mountain airways.

[Whitney Tingle]

I mean, beach for me for sure, right now.

[Podcast Host]

One thing you would tell your younger.

[Whitney Tingle]

Selves, I think that there is so much power and authenticity, and for so much of my life, I was trying to prove something, be something else. And, you know, as I approach maybe 40 in a year and a half, it's like, I think back to all the times I just wouldn't kind of embrace who I was and both in business and personally. And I don't know if you saw that stuff going around social media, but it's like, love is not the highest vibration. It's actually authenticity. Like when really we really get to speak and act and think like that as a reflection of our most authentic desires, that that's the highest vibration that can be.

[Podcast Host]

I would agree with that. I think you just have to always, unapologetically, be your authentic self, whatever that.

[Whitney Tingle]

Looks like, and be okay with what comes after.

[Danielle Dubois]

And I think for me, something that somebody said recently was, you don't have to make the right decision. You have to make the decision and then make it right.

[Podcast Host]

Yeah.

[Danielle Dubois]

And I think, you know, I could get so caught up in trying to make the right decision or let perfectionism get in the way of progress and production. And so, you know, it's something that I have to constantly remind myself of. Still.

[Podcast Host]

That's a good one for young people, too, as they're coming up, is sort of like. Because I think we all, especially the older you get, the less you have that struggle, typically. But I find, like, in your 20s, as you're building life, every decision is so freaking scary because you're like, if I make the wrong one, my life is over. I have no career. Like, I'm done. And then you get to a point at some. At some age, whatever that age is, where you just go, like, no, I'm confident my decision. If I make the wrong one, I'm learning from it. You know, I think. And so that's why I think that's very profound because it may not ultimately be the right decision. That you made. But at least you can make the choice to take something from it, right?

[David's Bridal Representative]

Yeah.

[Danielle Dubois]

And also not making a decision is making a decision.

[Podcast Host]

Right. By the way, I do that sometimes. I'll just like, I can't. I literally, if I have to make one more decision today, I'm. I'm done. I can't. My brain shut down. Okay. Call or text. Go to karaoke song. I don't karaoke. It's my greatest fear.

[Danielle Dubois]

Madonna. Like a prayer.

[Whitney Tingle]

I'm not big on karaoke. I like to sing, but I'm not big on karaoke.

[Podcast Host]

Save or splurge.

[Whitney Tingle]

More of a splurger.

[Podcast Host]

Favorite dessert?

[Whitney Tingle]

I love a good brownie.

[Podcast Host]

You guys did a good one in my last delivery. We got a good one actually. My son liked it too, which, which means, you know, it's good because I didn't tell him it was.

[Whitney Tingle]

It was healthy.

[Podcast Host]

Okay, what's one tip that you guys could share with our listeners of sort of what you can start doing like today for yourself, for your health? Like what's like a quick tip where you're like, like almost like how you guys hit rock bottom and, and said, I'm now take care of myself.

[Danielle Dubois]

Eat more colorful foods. That's what I'm really into is eating the rainbow.

[Podcast Host]

Yeah.

[Danielle Dubois]

I today I had purple sweet potato, red cabbage, and this purple rice in one of our sakara meals, the umami please bowl. And I think purple is a highly under consumed color of the rainbow. And so, you know, just a few. So many people eat beige foods and if you focus on getting that rainbow into your diet through whole foods, you get so many amazing antioxidants that just have so many benefits.

[Podcast Host]

I love that.

[Whitney Tingle]

I think my greatest hope for people and like my long term, kind of like life mission is to really help people understand how to kind of create body intelligence and then use it. And I want everyone to be their own best expert on their health. Not their doctor, not their Instagram, not anyone but themselves. We have an inner knowledge that we consistently and constantly either ignore or aren't even aware of. And our bodies are talking to us all the time. And if we get really good at kind of cultivating that relationship with our bodies will have far fewer questions on what to eat, when to eat, how to eat. And I think everyone is so overwhelmed right now on how to eat. And you know, it's hard not to be seduced by the trends and the abs and whatever, but how you should eat is your business and really no one else's. And then once you come to how to eat. You can order Sakara or you can kind of figure out how you do it. But I think it's really our job to get to know ourselves so well that we know ourselves and we cannot be seduced by kind of outside voices.
