Collin Ruiz has a Masters Degree in Nutrition, is an online health coach, a wonderful single mother, a great friend, and she also spent 2 years in federal prison as an innocent woman. Her story, observations, and life philosophies are a must read in the "page-turner" book titled Buddha Behind Bars. Collin chose to approach this tragic life chapter with a Buddhist perspective, taking vows and going to a "monastary" vs a prison, being present, observing, and growing as a soul. Life after prison, a halfway house, and probation could bring some people's lives into a spiraling stress case, but not Collin. Today, she has taken all that she learned from her experience, and is helping others seek personal freedom from their mind, body, and habits.

Come Cheers to National Wine Day with us, Friends! Traci's got some poppers, BIG news, and is back from her favorite place on Earth! We also dive into ways to shake off the low vibes of winter and reconnect with higher energy of Spring and Summer. If you DO decide to visit Xcaret Hotel and Parks, check out Traci's video on how to pack! https://youtu.be/5U3MtO1EzhE Oh, and for our Spanish speakers, we corrected Amy's slogan to "Soy vegana," whew!

Welcome back! We’re busting into Season 2 with convo on crushing health goals, cuz we’ve got trips to Mexico! Amy makes a delicious beverage for Spring festivities & you only need 4 ingredients for Traci’s drool-worthy health snack.

Why do we celebrate the New Year as we do? Be a trivia whiz at YOUR NYE shindig with these fun facts! People from all over the world have been listening to our show, and we are so very grateful! Wrap up the year with some giggles, education, and inspiration, and we sure hope you'll join us for Season 2! Cheers to more Shenanigans! 

Rona delay is over! T&A are revved up for healthy holiday focus and are here to offer recipes, drinks, products, and programs to help YOU do the same! ***Also, check out the following opportunities to Pay It Forward this season and easily sponser some pretty darn amazing animals! www.rescuedfriends.org (Traci sponsored a Piggy for Xmas!), www.farmsanctuary.org (Amy sponsored Elsa the turkey for Thanksgiving!)  Tech Update: Their NEWEST sound booth is a very large cardboard box with a cutout viewing hole, covered in hot as heck blankets - hahah! They have already sent letters to Santa asking for better microphones (and they've been really good this year, so fingers crossed!) 

Make yourself a smokey apple cider margarita (trust us, you'll love it), grab a blanket, and cozy up for some good ole fashioned ghost stories from our very own T&A town! (These just might be true!) Amy makes Traci's new, favorite drink (mentioned above), and we snack on something sweet and something savory!  Shenanigan Fail: Sorry Folks, editing mishap and the first half of Amy's "Apple Tartie" discussion was cut! :/ Please check Instagram for the photo and easy-to-make recipe! @t.n.a-party

Amy warms up the holiday with a classic Old Fashioned, then jazzes it up! Traci brings wieners to the office, along with a homemade pumpkin cake! Stay tuned for several fascinating reasons we celebrate this ghostly themed holiday! 

Autumn is in the air today, so we got cozy with a creamy, delicious, homemade soup, mouth-watering grilled cheese, and Amy's sister visits from NY to share her 50lb weightloss story!  (Don't worry, we worked out Ellen's sound.) 

Are you ready for football season? Or, like Traci, maybe just the food that comes along with it?!
