After several years of talking about going on their yoga and surfing retreat, Diana and Valerie finally did it! It was the trip of a lifetime. What they did not realize was the magic that sparked this hidden gem on the western coast of Panama. The location, the resort, the amazing food and wonderful activities paled in comparison to the amazing people that run this magical place. While on their trip, the ladies had the wonderful honor of interviewing Janel Phillips, the co-owner of Sansara Surf & Yoga Resort in beautiful Cambutal. If you’ve ever believed in following your dreams, tune into this episode!
Diana and Valerie discuss how their younger selves had a tendency to take on EVERYTHING, all the time, in the attempt to “control the universe.” A behavior that is, ultimately, self serving, self destructive, and often at the expense of others. We dissect and reflect on accolades, ego and our motives for “overdoing.” Are you trying to be a superhero? Because Edna says: “NO CAPES!”
In this episode, we welcome a very special guest! Julie Eubanks has been the owner of Be Yoga in Marietta, GA for over 15 years. She has a very tough story of love and loss with a best friend who ultimately inspired her to open her studio. It is a story that transcends time, location and loss. She is a warrior who has used her heartbreak to motivate and inspire others. We are excited and honored to have Julie join us on our podcast.
This week, Diana and Valerie will say “Sorry, not sorry!” for discussing the tendency to over-apologize.
Do you find yourself saying sorry for the most trivial things or for the actions of others that are beyond your control? Does this habit dilute the importance of a true and necessary apology? And why do some people seem to constantly apologize while others never do?
In “The Never Ending Sorry” episode, these are just a few of the questions that we seek to answer. Whew! It’s a lot to unpack.
It’s Fancy Jam Time! Life is too short to settle for “less than” and for feelings that we are not deserving of things that we desire.
This week, Diana and Valerie discuss why you should buy the dang purse, sleep in, or take that trip you’ve been dreaming about!
It’s time to level up and go for the things that matter to you in your life. It’s not being shallow or materialistic, it’s about advocating for something that makes you happy.
The stories you tell are important, especially when it comes to sharing your own. Do you have mem-ories, accomplishments, aspirations, values -- a legacy -- that you want to leave behind? If you ha-ven’t thought much about it before now, 2022 is a great time to start! This week, Diana and Valerie talk about the value of knowing yourself, understanding the percep-tions others have of you and how future generations can benefit from your own personal storytelling right now.
This week Diana and Valerie are talking about the big differences between motivating, experiencing, and controlling situations. Whether it's planning family vacations, work events or social gatherings, exhaustion and resentment can often be the outcome when you're always trying to be the one at the wheel.
Even though it's called a “trip,” the fun you have isn't supposed to come with a lot of baggage, right? Join us as we unpack this topic about letting go and enjoying the ride.
This week, Diana and Valerie have a discussion about how we show up in conversations. Are you listening to correct or listening to connect? If we’re only looking for opportunities to be right, or waiting for the pauses to make a point, is real engagement and communication actually happening? They also discuss the importance of asking questions, why we should think more about “dialing direct” rather than enlisting supporters on social media, and how being an active listener can help you grow personally, professionally and emotionally.
Time to leave the kids and work behind and hit the road. Honky Tonks, Rooftop Bars, Fabulous Cocktails and lots of Live Music. Come along as Diana and Valerie hit NashVegas for some big, old-fashioned girls’ weekend fun!
What’s actually happening in real life isn’t usually what you see in the perfect, polished pictures posted on social media.
In this week’s episode of NMNCND,“You Don’t Know What You Don’t Know,” Diana and Valerie discuss how these facades don’t serve us because we aren’t sharing our most authentic selves and are not seeing the challenges that others might be facing behind closed doors.
Join the gals for a few laughs and a very organic conversation about empathy, authenticity, COVID, and lessons learned.
Who are you listening to and why? Diana and Valerie talk about the people who are influencing their decision making in all areas of their lives. Whether in parenting, work, finances or personal lives, these people are guiding and influencing our decisions every day. Mentors are the “Kitchen Cabinet” (or the “Medicine Cabinet!”) in your life!

Happy holidays, Buttercups! How is everyone doing? Diana and Valerie are back with a special holiday episode. They discuss the joys and challenges of the season including gift giving, managing stress and 2022 intentions. Please join us! We can’t wait to start a new year with you! Enjoy!
In this week’s podcast episode, we kick those bucket lists to the curb and start composing our LIVE Lists!
What do you want to prioritize in your life to make it more meaningful to you? What are your goals? Maybe it’s all about having a life with more travel and adventure. Maybe it’s about experiencing spontaneity or more laughter every day. It might be something as straightforward as learning to golf!
Diana and Valerie discuss what’s on their individual (and shared!) Live Lists and how they plan on making them happen. Starting NOW! Let’s make those dreams come true, shall we?!
Are you waking up on the right or wrong side of the bed? Are you jumping out of bed to seize the day or are you dragging after a full night’s “sleep” more tired than ever? Listen in as Diana and Valerie talk about the healing power of “good sleep” vs. ”just sleep.” There is a difference. Quality matters and we are advocating for rock-solid rest!
This week we do a deep dive into the topic of loneliness. Not to be downers, but it is very real and prevalent in many of our lives. Diana and Valerie are shining some light on this “swept under the rug” topic. No one, especially a positive person, likes to admit that they are lonely. There are judgements and sometimes others, including ourselves, help start the shame spiral. We are perceived as being weak. Listen in as we own these feelings and talk about the power of normalizing this emotion.
Diana and Valerie are talking about the often-conflicting narratives and options that battle it out on the daily between our heads and our hearts. What do you do when you know what you “should” do but your heart wants you to do something different?
Through the conversation, there is discovery about how these internal struggles illustrate the daily challenges that we face in creating appropriate boundaries for others, managing important relationships, making tough decisions and in advocating for ourselves. In other words: exactly what the No. Mums. No Carns. No Daisies. podcast is all about!
With all of its benefits, this digital age has also brought along its fair share of challenges. “Ghosting” is a relatively new term that refers to abruptly cutting off contact with someone without giving that person any warning or explanation for doing so. Even when the person being ghosted reaches out to re-initiate contact or gain closure, they're met with silence. To anyone that has experienced this, it can create feelings of confusion, shame, embarrassment and sadness.
In this episode, Diana and Valerie discuss their experiences, how it has impacted them and what they’ve learned.
Diana and Valerie kick off Season 5 with an interview with their guest, Dan Quiggle! Dan is an international speaker, serial entrepreneur, author, podcaster and creator of the Quiggle Assessment, an online leadership and personality assessment unlike any other out there. You will be enthralled and engaged as we navigate the best way to create your own personal brand.

To all of the amazing fathers and father figures out there: HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! Diana and Valerie share a bonus podcast episode to talk about the love, legacies and challenges of their relationships with their dads, who have both passed away. You are SO very missed but the memories we have are held dear and shared daily.
Even if we are generally armed with a positive outlook and a sunny disposition, life has a funny way of presenting us with frustrating and disappointing situations. At these times, emotions can often rule the day (and you!) but then ultimately leave us with an undesirable outcome. How do you handle it when you are thrown a curveball in your personal life or at work?
Valerie and Diana talk about how their passions have helped and hindered them on this life journey. Listen in as they share a handy new coping mechanism for taking the emotion out of negative situations.
