Happy Monday Heal Squad, it's another edition of Ask the Manager Monday where Kev, Kelsey and Pooja 'get right to business'. How to get proximity to successful people. How pot luck dinners may be your cheap ticket to success. How to deal with rejection (they say no, you say next). How organization may be the key to happiness, how organization could be just one weekend away and how zip lock bags, drawer dividers and labelling are your best friends. How to budget through journaling, the one place to put your savings that will stabilize all your money problems and how you only need a small sum each week to do so. How the term 'toxic positivity' is in fact toxic. How ATM has no signature outro and how Kelsey had no finger nails to lend her signature, talk to the hand, 'Bye B' and how Pooja made the save with a 'we out.' And that's why we managers get paid the big bucks.

And on this week's Regular Guy Friday: These two cheap and easily accessible things to do each morning to curb depression and improve mindset. These are the ways different generations deal with the fragile egos of bosses, coworkers and collaborators aka the 'fatheads' of the world. These are the games, tests and messages the universe and our angels send us constantly before we are about to ascend or even to protect us. These are the days @PoojaNayyar had food poisoning yet belongs to an awesome LA clique of friends. These are the days @TheKelseyMeyer is moving and @Undergaro is at #wrestlemania. And these are two people who have no clique. No revenge but flat diet cokes and stale pretzels to all who do you wrong. JK. May all your @wetzelspretzels be hot and fresh and may your @dietcoke be effervescent. Bye Betches.

How a Maria and Keven late Sunday walk created the following 'Backyard Breakthroughs.' How 'walking and talking' yields far more than just talking. How surrendering old ways, trying new things and peeing on new trees could vastly improve your life. How anger and fear can both inspire AND limit you and what new means can inspire you better. How cutting back on everyday habits by as little as 10% and achieving minuscule wins now will help you achieve those huge goals, later. How and why to apply the art of behavior modeling. How being trapped in old dreams prevents us from living today's dreams. How our new antagonists are often just the old antagonists with a different name and face and how to prevent this (and them) from hurting us. How all of this will help you have the greatest week. Happy Monday Heal Squad.

What's a 'heal phone' and why you need one? What are attachment agendas and why must they be released? What year does adulthood really kick in and why entering it affects you in ways you don't realize. What are physical and emotional foundations and why are they vital. What really causes auto immune diseases and why we are really just fighting against ourselves when we have them. What are 20th century career plans people continue to practice and why they no longer work. What fighting as a way of life yields and why those yields are limited. RGF Bonus: Elvis' last song, Kev bumping into Cheech from Cheech and Chong as Kelsey says so long: Bye betches.

And truth is, there's no better primer than music from Boney M, Bacara and Thelma Huston to do so as @thekelseymeyer bday week continues! Bye Betches!

‘Twas the Fight Before Christmas' is now one of Better Together’s new favorite documentaries and thanks to our amazing producer Kelsey, we were able to snag the director herself for an interview! Becky Read is a brilliant Emmy-nominated director however, her success hasn’t come without its hardships. From overcoming creative blocks to preventing burn out, she shares a lot of valuable advice on how she maintains a healthy, work-life balance. Plus, she reveals some BTS secrets, how the stars were off-screen and even discloses the crazy stories she has from set (like how someone drove through a carwash with a Christmas tree attached to it?!)

You may know JoAnna Garcia Swisher from her role as Sam in “Are You Afraid of The Dark?” or Cheyenne in “Reba” or most recently, Maddie Townsend from Netflix’s “Sweet Magnolias,” but in our interview we see a different side of the actress. Maria and the star sit down and discuss their shared experience of losing a parent, or in JoAnna’s case two parents and a grandparent, during COVID and reveal what helped them get through the grief. 

Heal Squad, we present to you our latest Better Together segment “Ask Maria Mondays” where Maria answers YOUR questions! For all of you “Ask the Manager Mondays” fans out there, we are on the verge of getting canceled so if you want us back on air, make sure to mention that in your reviews ;) Today is jam packed with lessons, so get your notebooks out. The proven, simple technique Maria’s uses to release anger. The one thing Maria did that she accredits all of her success to. The “easy” one-liner you can use to stand up to a bully. People come into your life for this reason. What to ask yourself when you are on the verge of quitting. How to deal with grief on the days it just hits harder.   On a lighter note, Maria almost threw up next to Al Rocker on “The Today Show”? Kelsey is dating One Direction heartthrob Niall Horan?! Maria saw which international super star’s bare butt?!? All of that and more on today’s episode!

Here's why you wrongly 'explain' your side of the story. Here's why you wrongly 'explain' your true life dreams and goals. Here's why you shouldn't ever do, either. Here's why your explaining is you negotiating and why you shouldn't do that, either. Here's how anger can be the catalyst to remedy. Here's one reason suicides occur. Here's the sacrifice you make for acceptance. Here's a method to apply when you have a lot to do yet feel too overwhelmed. Here's the 90 day rule to apply when de-hoarding. Here's the 'back to one' process before sleep to insure a better morning. Here's to 'the minimalists' and the 'Daily Stoic.' Here's to why 'Ask the Manager Mondays' was launched and why it has been cancelled. Here's to all of us who try but never know why. Here's emulating one of those old TV series where the character travels town to town, helping others, searching for greater things may be a fine option. Listen through for RGF bonus material. Bye Betches.
