Andrea Bendewald aka DreWhat a warm and kind human Dre is. She’s an actor, podcaster, mumabear and leads women’s circles. The main themes of this chat are acting and spirituality. Dre talks about how both acting and learning circles have shaped the person she is today. We start off by unpacking her stellar sitcom career, she was in Suddenly Susan for 2 years, but also guest stared on Seinfeld and Friends. We talked about the golden years of sitcoms and the energy of working with great people.Dre also did a film with Jeff Bridges called Stick it! She talked about how connected and open he was as an actor and artist.I couldn’t interview Dre without learning more about circling and what lead her to this practice. I think part of Dre’s purpose and dharma is to empower women.You can listen to Dre’s pod “Circle This” here: listen hereYou can follow her on insta here: https://www.instagram.com/andreabendewald/Big love!LolaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Meet Anthony Meindl: He's an actor, screen writer, director, teacher, founder and artistic director of AMAW. He's got 10 acting schools across the world and guest lectures on top of that. Plus he's written 6 books!  This chat is a bucket full of sunshine for any actor or creative with a dream.

Todays Episode is all about health around the festive time! It's with me, you're friendly nutritionist. In this ep was talk about: dropping the food guilt (straight out of the gate) how to support your body when we're all eating a little more sugar than usual and drinking a bit more booze than the norm hydration and why it's so important and that one of the first signs of dehydration is actually hunger liver support  folk remedies like lemon juice in warm water and apple cider vinegar shots eating your colours for a wide variety of phyto-nutrients  Fibre and how it acts like an intestinal broom Mindset and mindfullness  Hope you found this ep helpful and inspiring, if you did i'd love you to share it with a buddy or loved one.  And ps. this is the Mel Robins pod i was referencing at the end about what you want to stop, start and continue for 2025 health and wellness goals. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-make-next-year-the-best-year-ask-yourself/id1646101002?i=1000681150190 Happy Holidays from LA!

Welcome Back to the Hot Seat! This week with Jamie Bloch from mycar is talking Grief and Loss on Monday's interview. After the chat Jamie jumped on the hot seat. Hope you love this hot seat chat! Big Love Lola xSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

G'day fam! Today's podcast is brought to you by mycar Tyre and Auto. Big thank you to Jaimie Bloch of Mind Movement Psychology for jumping on the pod and taking us through a deep dive on grief and loss. We focus specifically on natural disasters and how they can have a huge impact not only on one person but also a whole community. Jamie is a clinical psychologist and behavioural expert. She answers all of my questions honestly, but she also has a warmth to her and really cares about how we look after ourselves and others, especially in times of grief and loss. In this chat we talk about how grief and loss affect us all differently and how we all process tough things differently. We talk about moving through grief collectivity and if there is ever a silver lining to come with going through tragic events like natural disasters. I share my experiences volunteering during the Northern Rivers floods a couple of years ago. Jamie explained the simple necessities we need in these times from connection with another human and knowing our furry friends are ok to having electricity for charging our phones or boiling the kettle to make a tea. Jamie taught me all about survivor's guilt and second hand survivors guilt and trauma. We talk about the power of community and our innate primal need for connection. Jamie also teaches me about the awesome initiative by mycar Tyre & Auto inviting people who own an electric vehicle with V2L capabilityThey're called the mycar Chargers and can use their EV to power household items when there’s power loss caused by a natural disaster. It’s a small thing, but a powered-up phone, laptop, even a hearingaid can make a big difference. Find out more and register at: mycar.com.au/TheChargers mycar Tyre and Auto - People First Big thank you again to Jamie: you can follow her on insta here: https://www.instagram.com/mindmoverspsych/and here: https://www.instagram.com/jaimieblochAnd thank you again to today's sponsor mycar Tyre and Auto; you can find out more about their Chargers inititve here: mycar.com.au/TheChargers I hope you learnt lots from this chat like I did, it's a tough subject but I hope you found this conversation enlightening and hopeful.
