Finding the Fun in Fitness (Finally?)

This week, the Laurens are back with a wild mix of firsts, fails, and future plans. Lauren P recounts her shocking near hole-in-one during her very first golf outing—and her dream of assembling a glam golf crew for a weekend of cute outfits and cocktails. Meanwhile, both Laurens took on the challenge of watching all 10 Academy Award Best Picture nominees (well… almost all), and they’re not holding back on their hot takes. (The Substance = yes. Emilia Perez = hard no.)They also get real about their struggle to find joy in working out—and what they’re doing about it. Lauren B is diving into a ChatGPT-generated 30-day movement challenge (think: brushing your teeth while doing calf raises), and Lauren P was influenced by TikTok (again) to try the 28-Day Wall Pilates Challenge.Plus, a sneak peek at next week’s guest: Jen Gayden of Vivian James—Petals, Portraits, and Parties.
