Regular Guy Friday Ep. 37: How Explaining is a Means of Seeking Approval
Yes, when we are explaining, often we are seeking approval. And when we are responding, often we are negotiating - and none of it's a good thing. When we make choices, this is the question we must ask ourselves. Feed your messiah complex and get nailed to the cross. During times of transformation, be aware of this test the universe will give you. The series Maid on Netflix is great for anyone devastated by life circumstances and attempting a comeback. You can scam all you want but you gotta work - and clean up after yourself if you move back in with your parents while you're at it. What is the acronym FEPO and how can it help you cope with certain people? Over on Tik Tok, Couch Guy is a thing of the past making room for Noodle the Pug. Why Los Angeles may value Halloween over all the holidays and how Keven is off to Amsterdam, Kelsey is off to Washington and Pooja doesn't know what three costumes she will wear. Yet only Kelsey can properly enunciate 'Bye Betches.' Bye Betches. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

Regular Guy Friday Ep. 34: Why Breakthroughs May Not Be Good to Share with Loved Ones But Better to Share with The Universe
Hey Kweenz, Regular Guys and Girls, we fooled 'em again, made it through another week and to another edition of Regular Guy Friday. Being aware of the things you consume that leave you in a bad state is one thing. Being aware of the things you consume that leave you in a good state is another and something we must also consider. Discovering the little things that make your heart sing may be the beginning to awakening you. Discovering what makes another person's heart sing may be the key to gaining desired proximity. The best negotiations are when both parties end up with less and begin with each party understanding what the other side desires. Besting the other party in negation is often a temporary victory. Discover this about your enemy in order to thwart them - or flee from them. How purifying your life will attract pure people as well as clarity for the universe to message you. Breakthroughs may not be good to share with loved ones. Getting those we love to empathize with our plights can be done through the magic of the universe.

Regular Guy Friday Ep. 33: The Hazards of Mental Time Travel & Beating Yourself Up After Life Does
Hey Kweenz, Regular Guys and Gals, we made it to yet another edition of Regular Guy Friday. We learn why beating yourself up after life beats you up, makes you a double loser. The real truth behind the Fonz's jumping of the shark on the old sitcom 'Happy Days' may inspire you. The real truth behind Clint Eastwood's falling short on his old films may also inspire you. On that note, there are two sides to every truth: a positive truth and a negative truth. Embrace and trust the former for success and beware the latter. Is the latter even true? Codependents adapt well, maybe too well. 47% of us engage in Mental Time Travel and it's proven to lead to unhappiness. These three steps will rewire the brain to disable mental time travel. These two minutes will create a new habit. This message, from Julie Chen to her 'Talk' co-hosts will get you through any difficult time.

Regular Guy Friday Ep. 32: Trevor Moawad May Have Left Us But His Incredible Life Lessons Live On
Hey Kweenz! Fooled 'em again, made it through another week and to another edition of Regular Guy Friday. Trevor Moawad, sports mental coach to the likes of @RusselWilson and @NickSaban, author of 'It Takes What It Takes', frequent BT guest and, most importantly, our dear friend, has passed away but his work, and love for people, lives on forever. Amongst dozens of lessons, Trevor taught us the benefits to remaining in a neutral state and that 'WE DON"T FORM HABITS. HABITS FORM US.' When you're seriously ill, or one you love is, don't be afraid to open up to others. Be gracious in victory. Continue to ask the universe for answers and do not ignore the numbers. When one commits suicide it may be because no one saw them. Wayne Dyer and Albert Einstein believe for life to be beautiful and bountiful, it merely comes down to perception. It's good business for the news to relay dark information but most of the time it's none of YOUR business. Marie Forleo says to 'simplify to amplify. Complexities may be the true cause of our depression but simplifying takes time. Joe Gear says when talking to strangers to 'tell 'em nothing, feed 'em beans.' Often we engage in tasks that wear us down mentally and physically just to evade what's going on emotionally. This can form a habit (and lend further proof that habits DO form us - thanks again Trevor Moawad.). Kelsey had her stomach Cat Scan aka 'Cat Scam' conducted by a Cat Scam Vampire no less ! YES Energy Vampires show up in the most random places, work alone and can make you physically ill. They're tough to repel BUT there are ways....

Regular Guy Friday Ep. 31: Why Half Measures Will ALWAYS Hold You Back
Hey Kweenz, we fooled em again - made it to another edition of Regular Guy Friday. If there was one thing that could be attributed to Maria's success it was THIS philosophy. When you need advice, especially with regards to your dreams and careers, friends may be the worst to turn to and the same goes for parents. We may be judged not by what we did to help others, but what we didn't do when we could have. When do you give advice and to whom? The right advice could keep you from being poisoned or stabbed. Rocky tried to give advice (and failed). 'Screw you, Creepo.' Walter White from 'Breaking Bad' heard advice and listened. 'No more half measures, Walter.' Whether seeking fulfillment in relationships or career, half measures will always hold you back. Summa isn't officially ended. There's still time to inform us how one can Slay for a Sleigh.

You need @GabbyBernstein’s new book, ‘You Are The Guru,’ which is all about embracing stillness so that we can create space to "surrender to creative solutions."

Regular Guy Friday Ep. 30: How Bottoming Out Leads To Breakthroughs & Transformation You Desire
Hey Regular People, TGIRGF ! Finding out who you are is not about what you do (or had to do) to survive. When people you know need help, for your sake (and theirs), sometimes it's not about giving money or saving the day, it's about being present. Bottoming out and extreme pain is no fun but can lead to the breakthroughs and transformation you desire. Heavenly hells prevent bottoming out but heavenly hell is still hell. What does WCS stand for? Hint: it will help you make your best life decisions! Simplify and detach to reduce fear and make even better decisions. You can't build a house on sand but you can go back to live away, at college, after 40. Just ask Kev. You don't have to be up on the trends to be cool but you can attend your 10 year high school reunion with a date dressed like Batman. Just ask Kels. Ava Max is opening for Maroon Five and even though we know her make up artist, whether she lives the Kween-life that she sings about remains unclear. Last weekend of summa so get ready for the holidays and to Slay for a Sleigh. Can someone PLEASE tell us what slaying for a sleigh is already??? Bye Betches. Stay #krisp.

Regular Guy Friday Ep. 29: How the Universe Tests Us During Times of Transition
Regular Guys and Gals, we fooled em again and made it through another week. When you think everything is war, everything will be a war. Sometimes you need to go to war and when you do, it's where your focus must go. When you ask the universe for answers in key moments of life transition, you'll get them. But beware! The universe's initial answers may be a means to test you: to see if you're truly ready to change. There are not bad days, just bad moments. Can we really change who we are? Ida Kendall says speaking from your greatest place of inadequacy and where you're most vulnerable will cut through years of self-defense, survival constructs that prevent fulfillment. Tony Robbins says the Dickens process, identifying three limiting life beliefs and the negative consequences they've produced and replacing them with three empowering beliefs will create fulfillment. Kels and Kev say summer may almost be over BUT Christmas is around the corner. ADD moment #1: can the movie Love Actually really be compared to It's a Wonderful Life. A Regular Guy Christmas podcast could have the answers. ADD MOMENT #2: We still plan on holding our 'Slay for a Sleigh' contest. Still no idea what the contest is BUT who the F doesn't want to Sleigh for a Sleigh?

Regular Guy Friday Ep. 28: How to Reveal If Someone is Toxic!?
Hay Kweenz, we fooled 'em again! We made it through another week for another edition of Regular Guy Friday. If you have only a hammer in your tool box, then everything becomes a nail.

Narcissists believe the world owes them, says Lisa Romano. Kweenz are spelled with a K, says Astrid Brookes. Speaking of Kweenz, Kev and Kels have a bestie who works for Ava Max – whaaaaat??!!! PYE stands for Protect Your Energy and we must protect ours from toxic people. And speaking of toxic people, Maria thinks Kev's advice to Kelsey is toxic and so is he.
