The following podcast is a Dear Media production. I'm Michelle Kwan. In 1996, the world was in the midst of a massive cultural movement that saw women finally taking center stage. Nowhere was this shift more apparent than at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. This audience was the loudest thing I have ever heard in my life. The noise, everybody's cheering, and we see all these USA flags.

It was the most important summer in women's sports history. And team after team after team, the U.S. women kept winning. Basketball, soccer, softball, gymnastics. I just said, give me mine. Like, give me mine. Join me for Dear Media's Summer of Gold, presented by Together.

Listen wherever you get your podcasts. She's a lifestyle blogger extraordinaire. Fantastic. And he's a serial entrepreneur. A very smart cookie. And now Lauren Everts and Michael Bostic are bringing you along for the ride. Get ready for some major realness. Welcome to the Skinny Confidential, him and her. And so I remember, you know, getting that call that they didn't have a space for me and freaking out because I didn't have a plan on where else was I going to take my class? And how do I now cultivate this idea in this community with no home base? And so, you know, that took some creativity, you know, initially and some gut check.

Like you said, like, do you believe enough in what you're doing to continue to pursue this? And I really had, I was so motivated and so clear on what I was doing that I knew if I, if I made those two people in that room feel seen and have the best fucking time, that they were going to tell their friends and their friends were going to come back to the class. So many of you guys have asked for this episode with Megan Roop. She is the owner of the Sculpt Society and she is telling us how to get in shape, lengthen our muscles, lean out, all the things on this episode. I actually met Megan when I went to the Victoria's Secret fashion show. I went out there, thought I was just going to see the fashion show, but it ended up that

Victoria's Secret had like a whole itinerary for us. I went to her class thinking, oh my God, I don't know if I can do this. It's a dance class. I feel like I'm going to fuck up. And she made it so comfortable and her energy was so inviting that I really wanted her to come on the podcast. She says she had her own struggle finding a fitness method that would help her reach her goals, but she also wanted it to be fun. And her workout was fun. So if you're feeling overwhelmed or unmotivated, I highly recommend listening to this podcast. She completely inspired me. And she even talks about snacks and like

healthy meals she likes. And she's pregnant. So we learn all the things in this episode. With that, let's welcome Megan Roop of the Sculpt Society to the Skinny Confidential Him and Her podcast. This is the Skinny Confidential, him and her. You met your husband on Hinge? I did. Morgan, what were you doing on Hinge? Morgan's sitting in the background. I know, Morgan. What were you doing on Hinge? So right when you saw him, is it a swipe situation? Because I never got to go on the apps. I never got the opportunity, maybe for my second husband. So to be honest, let me tell you how it works, Lauren. I was on there last night. So to be honest, by the time I saw Morgan's profile on Hinge, I was kind of over online

dating. So I saw his profile and I was like, well, let's just say yes. Because one in 10 are actually going to say or actually going to reach out at that point. Like that was it was like those were like the stats. It was so low. People just like weren't reaching out at the time. Hinge was super new. And to be honest, his profile, his pictures were a little underwhelming. I like underwhelming, though, because I don't want you having a fucking star shot, glamor shot, beach situation that's blurred. Hold on. Like, Facetuned.

I'd rather have someone who's super underwhelming with bad lighting. And like, Taylor, our friend producer, he's behind there. He would come to our house in LA and use our bathroom to take all his profile shots. Shirtless shots. Shirtless shots.

No, let me tell you, if there was one shirtless shot in the profile, it was a no for me. Let me ask you this, just in case Lauren leaves me and I need to figure this out for myself. I need as much information as you can share, honestly, to be detailed. What is a win profile shot for a guy? Because I think, I don't want to be sexist here, but for girls, I feel it's a little easier, right?

Totally easier. What do you do? It's not Taylor's razor burn in Armier. But you don't want to be the guy with the fish, right? I know I see people making fun of the guy holding the fish. You maybe don't want to be shirtless. That's a little too much. You want to be underwhelming.

Do you want to be with a group of girls? No, I don't know. Do you want to do... So what's the move? Is it like you standing there with your arm around your mother? Who knows? Yeah. To be honest, I don't know.

We should pull up Morgan's old profile photos because some of them were not great. And so I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in. So maybe that is the reason why I was a little swept off my feet. I was like, ooh, when I first saw him on our date, I did cancel on him the first. Yeah, we had to reschedule. That's good, though. I love a cancel. That's great.

That works great. Morgan was really doing well. So take us back before you met Morgan. So how far back do you want me to go? All the way back. I want to know how you got into fitness and wellness. I feel like you are so well known in the space now. And I want to go back to maybe the epiphany when you realized, oh my God, wellness, fitness, this is for me. Yeah. So I grew up dancing, moved around a bunch as a kid, was always really into classical ballet. On the high school dance team, really entered college not knowing what the heck to do. I was really lost my freshman year.

I was attending Cal Poly as an English major. I had decided not to pursue dance and became really unhappy and became really obsessed with my food and my body and didn't understand why I had sort of dove into this cycle of negative behavior until I went to see a therapist. At the end of my freshman year, I had talked to my mom and I said, listen, I'm really unhappy. I don't know why I'm having these obsessive behaviors. I'm sick of it. I'm generally a really happy person. Like what's going on? I go into that session. She breaks it down, literally cracks me in like the first session.

It's like, you're not dancing. You're not pursuing what you're doing. You're numbing yourself with food and overexercising, thinking that that's the problem. But you're actually not listening to yourself. You're going outside of yourself. And you're not pursuing what you're meant to be doing. And I always say this, the sack could be food, drugs, sex, whatever it is. For me, my drug of choice was food and over-exercising. And so that led me into a path of getting back into dance. And I ended up transferring to NYU's Tisch Dance Program,

another conservatory, modern ballet. And then I graduated and they kind of just like thrust you out into New York City. You think you're prepared and you're really not. And you're trying to support yourself in a really expensive city. So I started to side hustle as I was auditioning for dance work. And I saw an audition for fitness, a dance-based fitness studio. And at that time, fitness wasn't something that I was passionate about. I just saw it as a side hustle, a way to make money, a way to pay rent. And at that time, I think I had a crunch membership, was torturing myself still in the gym, watching every calorie count for every step. At the time, I think I had a crunch membership, was torturing myself still in the gym, watching every calorie count for every step.

And that was my approach to fitness at the time until I saw this audition for this studio. And I went in and experienced dance space fitness for the first time. And things really clicked there for me. It was the first time I really experienced a way of moving that felt good. And it didn't feel like torture to me. I wasn't there to burn calories. I was there to feel really empowered and to feel, it just felt fun to me. And so at the time, I was really hitting my stride in dance and my professional dance career. I was working with the NBA in Brooklyn for the Nets. I was also side hustling in fashion as a fit model. So, you know,

really like a live mannequin for designers. And then I was really discovering this new passion for fitness. And I never went into it thinking, I really was like, this is just going to pay the bills. But honestly, like week two, I was hooked. The experience of getting to connect with women on such a personal day-to-day level and seeing how I could affect their lives and empower them through movement really transformed and redirected me in my career. So at the time, I had done two years with the NBA. It had been years of dancing professionally. I felt like I had checked that box off. And I just really saw this new direction and this new longevity that I could have in fitness. So I ended up teaching. I ended up ending that dance career, teaching for six and a half years,

and really educating myself on fitness. What is it that I wanted to do? Trying other studios, other modalities. And then six and a half years into teaching, I launched the Sculpt Society. And I met you at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. We were told that we were supposed to meet at 9 a.m. for a workout. And I walked in and you were like this bright light dancing. And there was all these Victoria's Secret models and influencers doing this dance. And you just made it so fun. It was so approachable. And I just told you I'm a little intimidated by doing all these dances. Well, a lot of people are.

But you made it very disarming. Well, thank you. And truly, the reason I launched the Sculpt Society was really because I saw so much intimidation in the space, right? The boutique fitness scene in New York City is like cutthroat. And I was like, this is bullshit. Why are we creating this like negative space for women? I want to create a class that feels really welcoming, that every woman that walks in feels welcomed, feels successful when they leave a class. Dance cardio does not need to be so complicated. Let's make it simple. Let's make the class under an hour and let's make it kick ass. That's how I wanted it to feel.

And I just felt like there was such a gap and still is a little bit of a gap in this boutique fitness space. What I love about you is that you did sort of the Warren Buffett strategy where he says, write down the top 20 things that you love. Don't judge yourself. Don't let anyone else judge you. And then only do the top three. One of my things was scrapbooking. And now I'm online scrapbooking, which I would never have said when I was little, I want to be a scrapbooker, but that is something that I wrote down and that's what I do now. For you, it seems to be dance, fitness, and you focused on that and you made a career out of that. What advice would you give for someone who has a passion or a love that maybe isn't accepted by society?

I think when there's not a clear path, it can be nerve wracking. I know for my parents, they immigrated to the United States. They're from South Africa. I think with parents and role models like that, they want these very steady jobs for their kids. And so for me, it was never really presented that dance or the arts could be something like that. So I also never thought of it as a possibility until I really had to switch that mindset and discover the idea. So I think, A, it's just switching that mindset, maybe not divulging to everyone what your dreams are, right? Just holding that close to you. And I also think for me, I'm a big believer in the side hustle. So I really think you can make a career out of anything, but take the financial pressure off in those first couple of years. So I really think you can make a career out of anything, but take the financial pressure off in those first couple of years. So I really relied on my fit modeling to fund my life

when I started the Sculpt Society. Yes, it was incredibly nerve wracking when I started, absolutely, but it wasn't paying the bills. And I was really able to cultivate the community, the method while side hustling in fashion. I think that's so insightful because I think a lot of, we've been doing this now for a while, but people forget that like, dear media at one point was the side hustle. The skinny comp, this podcast is still the side hustle. And we started all these things while we were doing things that supported our lifestyle and income, right? Like, and I think so many people, you know, they think I got to jump from one thing to the next and that's what makes it scary, right? You just pull the ripcord and you have nothing on either side. But for this

podcast, this entity, they all started as side hustles while we were supporting ourselves with what was it called? Our main jobs or our main thing. Yeah. I think too, what you're saying is so great because we're told so much, you have to go work for a bunch of different people to find out what you like to do. You and I have a similar story where we had the side hustle for me bartending, for you fit modeling. But then we pursued our passion aggressively with all the extra energy we have. If anyone's listening, I think the takeaway from this is do a service industry job, fit modeling, while you're working and putting all your energy into what you actually want to do. Well, people lie to each other though,

and they say you can have it all. But the problem is you can't have it all unless you're willing to make a bunch of sacrifices, right? Well, I think from, I'm sure for you guys too, from the outside in, it looks really glamorous. My life looks like I just work out and it stops there. It is seven days a week. It is a grind. It is a small startup. I am doing a lot of work behind the scenes and I don't think people understand that. So I think too, just being realistic with people and like, okay, yes, you may have a dream, but let's be honest about what that takes. And maybe it's okay if maybe that's not the right path for you. And maybe working for someone in a company that you're passionate about is the right path. But if you are an entrepreneur,

I think it can be glamorized and it really is not a glamorous job. I think it's dangerous that people glamorize it because like you said, there's a lot. I mean, I was joking around yesterday. We were in here and I was like, 90% of what we are doing right now is like dealing with a bunch of shit that falls in our lap, right? Like it was like, oh God, here's a problem or this thing had an issue. It's like the other 10, like this is the fun part, right? Totally. But the other stuff is like, oh my God, this headache, this HR, this finance, this, like it's a lot. And I think more entrepreneurs could do a better job explaining to young and upcoming or aspiring entrepreneurs all of that stuff. And then really gut check and say, do you want all that in order to get that other 10%?

Exactly. Exactly. What are some struggles that you've experienced when you were first starting out? Really go back and tell us about some things that you went through to get where you are now. If you are a mother or a father and you have not tried, that's it. You're missing out. What I did is I got the apple crunchables for Zaza. She is absolutely addicted. If I have these, she calms down. Don't believe me? Ask Michael. He even carries them in his pocket. I have these apple crunch calms down. Don't believe me? Ask Michael. He even carries them in his pocket. I have these apple crunchables everywhere.

They're a game changer. If I get stuck and I look in my bag and I don't have a crunchable and I'm with Saza, I start to have a meltdown. So they're one ingredient, which I love as a mother. They also have a grown-up version if you have a significant other that gets hypoglycemic. And these ones have apples, pumpkin seeds, and sea salt. Another reason that I use them for my daughter is because they're all natural, non-GMO, preservative-free, and there's no added purees, juices, or concentrates.

I have found in so many baby products, they add so much shit that I just feel like they don't need. The apple crunchables are free of all top 12 allergens. They're paleo, plant-based, and gluten-free. They come in tiny packs, so you can stuff them in your diaper bag and go. They saved my ass when I was in France. I you can stuff them in your diaper bag and go. They saved my ass when I was in France. I had them everywhere. I cannot say enough good things. I order them on a subscription because I'm so obsessed. And if you want something for yourself to throw in your cart, definitely check out the Keto Kick Bar. The one that I carry for Michael is made with six real whole ingredients because that's why it's called That's It. And there's as much caffeine as a cup of coffee.

So 95 milligrams of caffeine from Fairtrade single origin coffee beans. These bars are made with coffee beans, sea salt, cacao powder, or vanilla powder. I am a fan of the chocolate. So is Michael. They're organic, gluten-free, non-GMO, and free of the top 12 allergens, just like the Crunchables. So pick up the Keto Kick bars in chocolate and the Apple Crunchables. And of course, that's it.

I think initially finding a home for the Sculpt Society was really nerve-wracking because I had this idea of this one studio in New York that was at the time in 2017 when I launched, the rise of incubator spaces was happening. So studios in New York City that were allowing other fitness methods and trainers come in and teach. And I auditioned for this studio that I was like, I'm going to get in. This is going to happen. And it didn't happen.

And so I remember getting that call that they didn't have a space for me and freaking out because I didn't have a plan on where else was I going to take my class? And how do I now cultivate this idea in this community with no home base? And so that took some creativity initially and some gut check, like you said. Do you believe enough in what you're doing to continue to pursue this. And I really had to really strive and lean into, again, why was I starting this? What was I doing? And I believed enough in what I had created to find another studio space that luckily took me in and I was able to start the community there. I think also, let's be real too. People think like I just rocked up and there was like a sold out class. Realistically, the first nine months, if I got two people in

the door, I was like, hallelujah, I didn't. I sold two spots. So I think too, I was so motivated and so clear on what I was doing that I knew if I made those two people in that room feel seen and have the best fucking time, that they were going to tell their friends and their friends were going to come back to the class. And that's what started to happen. Word of mouth really started to spread. But it took me about nine months. And I think people don't realize that. If it doesn't happen right away, people want to abandon shit. Not to downplay, because obviously you've had success, a lot of success since then,

but not to downplay this, but don't you feel like you remember those early days way more than, let's say last month was a great month. I just would say that. But don't you feel like you kind of gloss over those great ones? You really remember the hard times more. I think that builds so much more character than the easy times. The easy times, it's the reward, but it's not as memorable. Absolutely. I mean, I think if I didn't have those hard times, again, those hard times really test what it is that you're doing. And I think if I hadn't experienced that, it just would have been a different... I think my tenacity of wanting to just prove to people that this could be a

successful business maybe would have been a little bit less, but I don't know. I'm kind of passionate when it comes to that. So one thing I think is so impressive about you is that you built a business while simultaneously building a huge social media presence. How did you do that? There's a lot of people out there that are passionate about something but don't know how to build the social media presence. And then on the flip side, it's also flipped. Yeah. How did you do that? So this is 2017 when I launched the Scope Society. I had maybe 300 followers. So I was

quote unquote late to the game. I felt really behind. However, still knowing that social media was such a big aspect of any small business. Right. So, you know, I just immediately knew I had to start posting consistently and then doing a lot of like guerrilla marketing, like reaching out, cold DMing people that I didn't know. You have to tell everyone what guerrilla marketing is. I haven't heard that term since I think Mike Cernovich. That was a long time ago. Tell us what that is again. Remind us. I don't know if I know the clear definition, but cold calling. Yeah. I would literally DM every day, hey, you don't know me. But in my mind, I'm like, listen, I got a great class. I can just get this influencer, a model, a celebrity, whoever you are, Sally Jo, into

the room. I know they're going to have the best experience. So that's honestly what happened in the early days. And maybe one in 50 would respond, but I got some great responses, you know. And it started to trickle in the New York fashion girl, the New York fashion model, started to train some of them, and then started working with different influencers. And again, I just knew that that aspect of the business had to be there in order to grow, not only on social, but in my community as well.

I always say you have to reach out a thousand times. You're going to get a thousand no's, but then you get that one yes. Who was someone that you got that was just life-changing for your business? I would say Elsa Hosk, who was word of mouth. You're saying someone I reached out to, cold DM'd? It could be anything, an influencer or celebrity that just changed the game. Elsa Hosk was a word of mouth reference and still is a client and friend today and the most supportive. Ariel Charnas was huge for me. I think the mix of the two at the time, because the Victoria's Secret fashion show

was happening, Elsa was wearing the bra. And then Ariel Charnas, who has just a crazy following as well. And her husband was doing it with you. So that was a very 360 approach, I feel like. Yeah. Yeah. That was cool. You know, I think, too, just getting micro-influencers into the studio and into the class as well. I think people underestimate a micro-influencer's power. You know, you can have big celebrities and big influencers, but, you know, people with smaller communities are really, really engaged. I agree. And you said something so smart earlier. You said that you just wanted to get anyone in

the class because you knew they would go and spread the word. Sally Jo with 10 followers. She has a really strong voice. I completely agree with you. And I feel like this isn't talked about enough. I was talking with Michael about product the other day and I was like, I haven't really sent anything to influencers. My community has just been so incredible. They're posting the coolest content ever. And I think that that's overlooked so often. People just want the quick grab of the celebrity or the influencer. And so I was really intentional when I was teaching in real life classes to anyone who walked in the door. I shook their hand. I gave a moment to them to say hello and to

welcome them because there were so many times when I would go to a fitness studio and like, just feel kind of like intimidated and like by myself and not welcomed. And so again, whether it was Sally Jo or Elsa Hosk, everyone needed to have the same experience. And that still is how I approach it today. Because like you said, the community feels that, you know, they see that. And if they're getting different treatment, then that's, you know, just a different experience. How do you and your husband do working in a small space during the pandemic? We talked about it off air. I would love to know any tips or tricks or secrets. Wait, I was going to ask you the same thing. I don't have much. We had to not to do it anymore.

We had to stop doing it. I'm giving him a sprinkle of epidural in his coffee every single day so he can't move his legs. We had to move to LA to do it. No. So let me take you back. So the pandemic hits. I launched the Sculpt Society app, the digital version, in November of 2019. So it had launched for like three months.

We had it up and running. The pandemic hits and we're in a one bedroom and I have to start going live on the Sculpt Society app every day from my living room. Poor Morgan is like stuck in the bedroom. I don't even know where the bathroom may be. And let me just put this into perspective if you aren't in New York. I mean, we're talking like 600 square feet, like the size of this room. Is this actually the size of this room? That's how big your one bedroom was? Maybe it's slightly bigger, but yes, it is tiny. Well, because normally before you have like, I think like, well, this is a whole tangent, but I think a lot of people are revisiting how they live because I look at somewhere like in

New York City, I'm like, it's okay to have a small space. You've got the whole city at your disposal. Yeah, but if I'm with you in a pandemic in New York City in a 600-foot apartment, I am Miss Peacock with the baller in the New York City 600-foot apartment. If that was my situation, I'm going to risk the elements. I'm going to be out. I'm going to be like, listen, I'm not following the rules, but it's more dangerous for me inside than out.

Also, let me put this. This was an upgrade. We had just moved from a studio to a one bedroom. So we had thought we were living the dream and then the pandemic hits. And then I'm going live and I'm blasting music and this is like on a daily basis. So to be honest, it's more Morgan than me. I don't know, Morgz. How did you know what he did? He just put up with it. He's still crying. He's still crying. Yeah. Michael's dad says he doesn't speak. He doesn't hear. He doesn't see. That's how he deals with it. I think that's smart. So your app doubled during the pandemic. People obviously had to start working out from home. So I feel like people either sank or swim during this.

You have to choose your mindset. To me, it seems like you chose a mindset of positivity and how can I make this work for the business, the brand, the community. I mean, I dove right in. I felt really grateful that I'd already had this platform launched for three months. I already had hundreds of videos on the platform and I was already working on the live element. So the fact that literally the day that the city shut down, I could go live and I knew all of my community and specifically my community in New York City could jump into the live workout from their living room was just big. And then I started, I really felt like it was my duty to go live every single day. So honestly, for the first six months, I went live

and provided a free class, a class on the Sculpt Society app every single day for seven days. Are you pregnant at this time? No. How many weeks pregnant are you for the audience that doesn't know? I'm 36 weeks. Okay. So you got pregnant later on though in the pandemic too. Yes. That's a lot to juggle. It was a lot to juggle.

I asked the audience because I know they're going to be so excited that you're on a ton of questions. And a lot of the questions have to do with gaining weight in the pandemic. Yep. The last five pounds, they gained do with gaining weight in the pandemic. Yep. The last five pounds, they gained 10 pounds, 15 pounds, whatever. Yep. What are some really digestible tips that people can do to lose weight? Gut health is the thing, okay? We are about a healthy gut for 2021.

Because a healthy gut, and I know this because I had the founder of Just Thrive on this podcast, means your best immune system, digestive, and emotional health. The gut controls so much, and I'm learning more and more about it. And one thing that I take every single day is a Just Thrive probiotic. I like it so much, they have one for dogs that I give it to Boone. So Boone's on his probiotic, I'm on mine. I like the Just Thrive probiotic, and I really like it because after doing research, I found that there is one thing that is important about probiotics, and that is survivability, okay? A lot of them don't survive from the trip to your

mouth to your gut. And the reason I'm attracted to just Thrive is because it does survive. So if you're on a probiotic, make sure that it's one that has survivability. I learned that a good probiotic has nothing to do with refrigeration. So I feel like it's just so much easier to just throw it in my bag. I take one right before I get on the plane and then get off. And you can just take it with your morning coffee every single morning. The one that I like is vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, dairy-free, and free from anything artificial. If you want to, you can even break it in half and sprinkle a little bit on your kid's oatmeal. Probiotics are just so amazing because they support your gut,

beautiful skin, better sleep, and easier weight control. I feel like if you want to learn more about probiotics in general, you should listen to that episode. I learned all about gut health, and I feel very confident that I want to focus on that moving forward. If you have any problems like gas, constipation, or bloating, I would definitely check out a probiotic.

If you are someone who feels overwhelmed with what to do, it's all just like the next step, it feels overwhelming. It's like, let's simplify it. So I'm a really big believer, especially in the pandemic, of shorter workouts. Even for me, the days that I'm not going live, I struggle to get myself going and get into a workout. However, I can convince myself to do a five or 10 minute quickie on my

app. Anytime I do a five or 10 minute quickie, I end up doing more. So I created a quickie program, commit to 10 minutes a day for four weeks. Does that sound like a weight loss program? No, but it's going to get you working, moving, feeling good mentally and physically and getting you into that consistency. So I think when people think of working out, they think it's like this quick fix, this magic pill that they have to take. It's really just small little nuggets. And for me, that comes down to quick workouts.

And then you start to build upon that. I think when it comes to nutrition, talking to a nutritionist. I'm not a nutritionist. I think a lot of fitness influencers out there give out fitness advice. And I think when it comes to your body and nutrition, I know what works for me, but you need to figure out what works for you and talking to a professional. What are some little tips that work for you? You don't have to give us blanket advice. Give us some things that you do. What are you eating for breakfast? What's for lunch?

Yeah, I want to know. She likes specifics. I've listened to your podcast. Details, details. I wake up in the morning and she's like, how are you doing? I'm like, good. She's like, I need specifics. I was like, I can't. I got to give me a minute here.

Okay, so what am I eating in the morning? I start with, I mean, this is like so eye-rolly. Lemon water. Eye-roll me up. Love a lemon water in the morning. That just gets my digestion going. I have coffee with almond milk. And then I start with fruit. I'll then move my body. And then I'll have like my, I call it my second breakfast, which is either like a massive salad with feta cheese, goat, cucumbers, and then three scrambled

eggs over it with some salad dressing, avocado, or I'll do two pieces of Ezekiel toast. What salad dressing? You know what, Lauren? Actually- No, I'm asking questions that people want to know. Sure. But as you were talking, I was thinking maybe I should do that salad with the egg thing too because- Michael, honestly, we've had so many people on this podcast and you still eat your fucking croissant from Alfred, so I don't know what to say.

I think I could do that. Why the cucumbers? I'm so good Why the cucumbers? I'm going to watch you chop up the feta. I like the crunchiness of the feta. He's hungry right now. Here we go. Okay. So what dressing? Currently, I'm really into Trader Joe's dressing. They have really simple ingredients in Trader Joe dressing. By the way, coming from New York City to walk into a Trader Joe's and not have a crazy line, it's like heaven to me. I could spend hour there. Okay. Have you gone to Air One yet? I haven't. Oh, okay. I'm nervous. I'm going to spend a lot of money there. A hundred million dollars.

You're going broke, but it's worth it. Okay. Broke vibes. So depending if I have the salad or the toast, I'll then switch that for lunch. Does that make sense? No. So if I have my second breakfast is the big salad with the eggs, then for lunch, I'll usually have two pieces of Ezekiel toast with Kite Hill cream cheese, the everything bagel. You have to get it. The everything bagel flavor. Is that better than Monty's? I love local NYC Monty's, but Kite Hill's, I think if I had to choose Kite Hill. Oh, really? I'm obsessed with Monty's.

Well, it depends on the texture. Are you more of a thick texture person? Yeah, I want like a thick, girthy texture. So then Monty's, if you're more of a whipped, light cream cheese person, Morgan's more of a Monty's. Okay. And then I'll smash avocado, everything bagel, seasoning on top. Yum. A snack would be a smoothie. I'm during pregnancy, big fan of a protein fruit smoothie. So almond milk, bananas, blueberries, a protein powder of choice and chia seeds and maybe maybe another. And then dinner, I've honestly been really lazy. So I'll either Morgan and I will either order Saqqara for dinner during the week or we'll like make a big, I don't know, like veggie chicken. I don't know.

Boring. Whenever I hear what people eat sometimes and I've had to like do work with this, I realize that I don't eat enough. Oh, I believe it. That's another really great tip. Yes. I think I always hear what people eat and it's not because I'm trying to deprive myself. I mean, I am in a period of weight loss, but I just forget.

I don't know. So that's like Morgan. And I don't understand humans like you. I do not forget to eat. I forget. Like I even had one thing to eat today. What time is it? I know it's horrible.

It's two o'clock. So your metabolism is like a fireplace. I know. I hope I'm working with Eric from the Flexible Diet Coach. And I hope he didn't hear that. I'm going to eat. I only have had coffee. I know. I need to. That explains a lot, Lauren. It explains a lot to me. I forget. So when I hear what you eat, I'm like, it sounds so good. I mean, I'm down for everything you're saying. I need to eat more. Yeah. And I think maybe because you're clearly so busy running a business and having a child, maybe it is like a meal delivery service. I love i love sakara i use i do use that a lot i'm obsessed with their stuff they're great big

fans especially for dinner when we're like exhausted and we just want something healthy um and then honestly i like if a dessert i've been loving frozen yogurt and like rainbow sprinkles oh when i was pregnant when i was pregnant that's a different story. I made him make me a box of the bunny mac and cheese. Have you had that? Don't. It was started on mac and cheese in my first trimester when I was nauseous. That's like all I could eat. It's so good with lemon all over it and chili flake.

You should make that for her tonight. I'm telling you. I don't want to call myself a chef, but I make a mean mac and cheese. And every single day, the pregnancy is great because you just make them do everything. I know. And then the baby comes and that's hard. What are some tips if people are pregnant? For instance, I put spirulina powder in my smoothie every single day and I noticed it

really helped. Do you have any little hacks like that that you're doing that you think are just great? I think for me, especially in my first trimester, eating smaller but more consistent meals because the more I did that, the more I left time in between, the more nauseous I felt during pregnancy. I also think it's a misconception with pregnancy that we're not supposed to be moving our bodies and we're supposed to be resting. Honestly, if you are pregnant, just going back to that quickie mindset, five, 10 minutes a day, because pregnancy is mental. Like we were talking before, it's such a mental game that if you can just get out of your head and just feel good and get those

endorphins going while you're pregnant, it makes such a difference. I will say I was very impressed with my wife during pregnancy because I don't think you missed a single day of working out. Not one single day. It was pretty, I mean, because I don't think you missed a single day of working out. Not one single day. It was pretty, I mean, and I was like the discipline that took, you know, cause obviously you're pregnant and you're uncomfortable. And like, I was like, wow, that's impressive. But I do think it helped not only, listen, I hope this doesn't upset anybody. I think it helped with the labor and the birth and made it easier on her because she was in such good physical condition

when she gave birth. Yeah. I mean, there's so many studies that show that, that if you are cleared by your doctor and moving and working out feels good for you, that it is so healthy, not only for you, but for your baby. I just felt like, and tell me if you feel like this too, I was so swollen and puffy. I have to move my body and that include walking a lot of walking and then a low, a low, low, low cortisol workout, which brings me to my next question. I have noticed that my body does not do well in high cortisol workouts. For instance, fuck a spin class where the music is up to 8 000 and i'm getting yelled at and like everyone's taking their fucking towel doing like the yeehaw and like high-fiving like it's i can't know why peloton canceled us lauren no no no they don't sponsor us anymore no peloton's amazing

because it's at home i'm just kidding i think do they sponsor us. I don't know. So honestly, Peloton is amazing. I'm not talking about Peloton. I'm talking about these workouts where you're getting yelled at. There's one down the street from me. They have a mic on. They're screaming at me. The music is up so loud. I want to listen to Bossa Nova and have like low vibes because I think, you know, life

is so stressful and chaotic already as it is to have a workout that is inducing cortisol, I noticed made me gain weight. Can you speak on that? And if you don't agree with me, feel free to rip me to shreds. No, I'm not going to rip you to shreds. And I'm probably going to give a really annoying answer, which is the same thing I have for nutrition. When it comes to working out, to me, it's figuring out what works for your body. And I know that's annoying.

But some people thrive in that environment, like a bootcamp. I don't. I don't want someone yelling at me. So I created a space where like the scope study is what I wanted in a workout, right? But I think it's just finding maybe it's a reformer Pilates class. Maybe it's a yoga class, but you have to test just like nutrition, figuring out what works for you and your body. And that's amazing. The fact that you have figured that out, what works for you and your body. And that's amazing, the fact that you have figured that out, what works for you and your body. Let's take a quick break to talk about a serious subject that we are definitely champions of, and that is protecting your mental health. It has been a crazy couple of years, which is why we decided to bring BetterHelp onto the show as a platform partner to talk about protecting your mental health and getting

ahead of conversations that are hard to have. BetterHelp is going to assess your personal needs and match you with your own licensed professional therapist. This is so cool because you can connect in a safe and private online environment and it's convenient. You can do it right out of your home and you can start communicating with them in under 48 hours. You guys know how passionate I am personally about mental health. It's very, very important to me. And I think this is such a great site for anyone who's struggling to check out. It's super affordable, even more affordable than

traditional offline counseling. And they also have financial aid, which is so incredible. Yeah. What I love the most about this is the convenience. You can do this from your bedroom, from your living room. You can just get online. You have full privacy. Nobody has to see or hear from you except the therapist that you're talking to online in a completely protected environment and all from the comfort of your own home. So if you or anyone you know is struggling with depression, stress, anxiety, relationships, sleeping, trauma, anger, family conflicts, LGBT matters, grief, self-esteem, they have it all. And anything you share, and I think this is really important to point out, is confidential. So it's convenient, professional, affordable, all the things. And you should also know it's not a crisis line. So I just think this is such a good message to be spreading. Michael and I, like I

said, are about mental health. When it's completely changing the game of mental health, right? Like for the first time, you're giving access to so many people that may have not had access before. Lauren and I have been proponents of mental health. We've had many conversations on this show to protect mental health and make people more aware of it. So check it out. I want you to start living a happier life today. As a listener, you'll get 10% off your first month by visiting our sponsor at betterhelp.com slash skinny. Join over 1 million people who have taken charge of their mental health. Again, that's betterhelp.com slash skinny. Betterhelp.com slash skinny. What can someone expect if they take your class online or in person?

So online, we have so much offering. And I think offline we were talking about, I think a lot of people think the Sculpt Society is just dance cardio. I have actually, I would say 80% of the Sculpt Society is low impact sculpt. So it is not jumping. If that is something that you're not into. Yes, I've got a great dance cardio section, if that's what you're into. But the know, the bulk of the method is low impact, sculpting, sculpting, using your own body weight, like hand weights, ankle weights. Um, and it's, it's athletic, but it's, it's low impact. So I'm still getting your heart rate up in a low impact way. So you're going to sweat. Um, but then if you're on, I don't know if you're not feeling it,

I have got a great gentle beginner sculpt where you're going to be on your then if you're on, I don't know, if you're not feeling it, I have got a great gentle beginner sculpt where you're going to be on your side and it's going to be gentle and slow and the pace is much slower. So there really is something for everyone. I have meditation, I have yoga on there. Your voice is very relaxing too. It is very relaxing. It's like low. I kind of have a dude's voice. I like it. It's very, very, very relaxing. Let me ask you a sidebar question. There's people in your space that I believe are catching some flack, which is kind of strange now, which is kind of strange, for promoting a certain body image or health and

wellness lifestyle. For whatever reason, somehow, I mean, everything's become offensive now, but somehow it's become offensive to promote kind of what you do. How do you deal with the voices that come and say like, hey, you're promoting something and you're not, but like, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. So I've been really, really mindful of that, you know, making sure that I'm showcasing all body types. So I have got curvy women on my app. I have a whole TSS friends section. And so it was important to me that, yes, do I train supermodels in Victoria's Secret fashion show?

Yes, but I also train curvy women. So making sure that those body types are shown on the Sculpt Society app. And I think that's been intentional from the beginning because I don't want anyone to feel like they can't be a part of this community. And being realistic that most women are curvy and we want to see that. I guess what my question, I don't want to get to a place where we start to get away from saying like, hey, taking care of yourself is a good thing. Eating healthy is a good thing. Moving your body is a good thing. Not necessarily for the image, but because you'll just feel better and you're getting endorphins, have mental clarity and like, I don't want to dance around a subject and say, Ooh, like it's not about all the other stuff that people get upset about. It's about like, these are good things to do for longevity as a human being to feel better for your family.

I actually think it's a, in a way now as a parent, a selfish thing to not consider taking care of myself for long. Cause like we have a child that we got to worry about. Right. And I know people get upset. Like when, you know, when we're outspoken about stuff like that. But I can't imagine getting to a place where we start to say promoting a healthy lifestyle is a bad thing. No, I agree with you. I think you can do that in a way that's not saying that only this body type is what we're striving for. And you can show other body types while working out. But I do agree with you.

No, I think promoting a healthy lifestyle is a great thing. Morning routines. I am a huge proponent of morning routines. I know you are. I bet you have one. I do. And I would also simultaneously like to know your wind down. Yes. Okay. So this is the perfect morning for me. Now, have I done this consistently? Probably not. That's okay. My thing is you don't have to hit it every morning. You just do your best. You set the intention. It's just something to hold you accountable. If you get it freaking 10% of the time, great. Okay. So my morning is pretty simple. I usually like to give myself an hour to an hour and a half before I have to do anything actually work-wise. I know

I shouldn't look at my phone, but I definitely do the first thing in the morning. I then go downstairs. I make my room temp lemon water. I chug it. I make my coffee with almond milk. What kind of almond milk? Usually, well, now because there's a Trader Joe's close by, it's like the Trader Joe's unsweetened almond milk. I'm not a fan of it, but you know. I usually don't get this detailed. What kind of almond milk? No, because I don't get this detailed, but I know you're so good with wellness. So that's why I'm being so annoying.

Trader Joe's, it could be creamier if you're taking some feedback. I then go sit on the couch in a perfect situation and I'll meditate for only like five minutes. So we have meditations on the Sculpt Study app that are literally five to seven minutes. That's kind of where my attention span clocks out. I'll sit there, go through a gratitude list, and then move my body. Let's have some fruit, move my body. Pretty simple. Is this in your calendar to move your body or is it just something that you just set the intention? It's so ingrained in my, it's like brushing my teeth at this point. Yeah. I feel the same way about that. Like I tried it. It's so ingrained in my, it's like brushing my teeth at this point. Yeah, I feel the same way about that. Like I tried it.

I just put it on my calendar. What I've been doing in this, I don't know if this is a horrible tip for everyone. No, but I love that calendar tip, by the way, that you schedule it into your calendar. I have it in my calendar, but sometimes I don't have time. So what I'll do is I'll move the workout

to when I'm doing a conference call, put the workout on zero volume. And you can do this with your app. This is actually, you can pull up your app and you can do the five to 10 minute arms while you're on the conference call. And I know this isn't the best for cortisol because you're on a call, but at least I'm getting something that's low impact in. Lauren's favorite thing to do is join a Zoom that we're all on and been talking for 15 minutes as she's late doing work. I'm like, all right, who do we all got here? I also don't do video. She's the only one not on screen. I'm not going to up my cortisol on video. I'm just not doing it. I have too many Zooms. I'm not going to do video. It's so many Zooms.

But that is a really... No, I love that. And I get messages like that all the time where it's like, I squeezed in your five-minute arms either on the call or between Zoom calls or during my baby's nap, right? Like moms who are with babies. No, I think that's really great. And I think if you are someone starting out or struggling to get your workouts in, scheduling in your calendar is a really great tip. Sometimes my husband talks too much. And so what I do is I just have my ankle weights in the kitchen and I'll just put them on my arms and start. Speaking of chasing passion, I was like,

I don't like this. No, it's like, we have to do a 10 minute conversation about this situation. I might as well get my arms in. I swear to God, we're squeezing it in. What you're doing

is so avant-garde and on the pulse of where we're headed in life. The last thing I want to do is get in my car, go drive to the gym, run into Susie from high school, have a 10 minute conversation

with her, walk out and like something's like whatever it is, I need to get gas, whatever. I want to just squeeze it in. I think it's very smart what you're doing. Thank you. Well, and I think people are constantly asking me, they're like, oh, well, you know, now that the vaccine's coming and everyone's getting vaccinated, are you concerned about the digital space? And I think, listen, people are going to go back to the gym, but to me, it's going to be like the movies, right? You go to the movie theater to see the big blockbuster, but you have your Netflix at home and you actually use Netflix probably more than you go to the movie theater. So I think digital fitness, honestly, is just going to continue

to grow. I think what it's going to be from this pandemic is you will get back to doing normal things, but people will not do things anymore that are way out of their way and very inconvenient. If there's a gym, five, 10 minutes, easy. But if I have to go 30 minutes and I know I can do something at home... Also, see me in real life after tax. It's $40. You can see me online for, what's the year subscription? $9.99.

One thing I'm grateful for... Scope Society is saving time. That's what you're selling, time. Yeah. One thing I'm grateful for from this pandemic is I think it's going to, listen, it's going to get rid of a lot of inefficiencies. I feel like we've been wasting a lot of time in a lot of areas. And when I say inefficiencies, I mean, it takes a lot. Now, even if you just think about how we interact in the business world, I'm not going to drive over across town to someone's office and go there and do all this stuff when I can get on a Zoom. But there is something where I do like to connect with the team in person and collaborate. But these days of wasting hours in traffic and wasting hours on a flight to go and see,

those are done. I mean, once in a while, you'll do something to see someone in person, but we're going to get rid of a lot of inefficiencies. And I think what will happen is the world will start moving very fast because of it. I agree. You have to give us your nighttime routine. And then I have a little juicy question for you. Make me so nervous. What the fuck is going to come out of your mouth? I was literally walking over here and I'm like, I'm so fucking nervous.

No. But not. Nighttime routine. It's a little less, you like, I'm so fucking nervous. No. No, but not. Nighttime routine. It's a little less, you know, I think for me during the pandemic, walks outside were huge, especially living in New York City. Just like leaving my big apartment building for some reason, like getting into an elevator and getting outside was, you know, an achievement. But the minute I got some fresh air and could walk by the Hudson and just, you know, either

listen to a podcast or walk with my husband. That was huge. Coming back, having dinner. I take multiple showers a day. I don't know why, especially to me. So that is my goal. I get it. I don't get it. So I take an evening shower too. I take multiple showers a week. A month. I mean, I don't wash my hair i mean i wash my hair like once a week um but i just you know i really savor that time in the shower um you know since being pregnant like my my body oil routine oh my gosh that's really it takes me like an hour to lather up um and then i put on all like i i do a serum i'll do a moisture you want to know what products i mean oh god okay just give us a couple brands that you like okay Okay. Loved your Elemis collab. Thank you. And now you have a

nice roller that you can roll on your vagina after you get burnt. You did. Thank you. I do really love their, what is their makeup remover? They have amazing cleansing balm. Yeah. That cleansing balm is so delicate and doesn't rip the skin. All these shitty makeup wipes pull down the skin. It's nice. Yes. So love that. I'll do a serum right now. Gosh, I kind of just rotate. I've used Vintner's Daughter, which I like. Caudalie, I like. Augustinus Bader, I like. Same with the creams. I have really dry skin, so then I'll lather on a thick cream, the rich cream from Augustinus Bader, like. Same with the creams. I have really dry skin, so then I'll lather on like a thick cream, the rich cream from Augustinus Bader I like. Great brands. Yeah. All great brands.

I'm blanking, which is bad. It's okay because I have a juicy question. Okay. All the listeners want to know, and this is kind of like a twist. Oh. As an NBA Brooklyn Nets dancer, what is the tea? Like, is it... Tea? No, they want to know, is there crazy rules? Can you talk to the athletes? Oh, yeah, there are crazy rules. Is someone trying to bend you over in the locker room? No. What's going on? Okay. So here's the rule. The rules were really strict. They did not want dancers and athletes talking to each other because they really didn't want people to think that the dancers were there for the athletes. I would say I was dancing with the most talented women in the US.

It was really a talented group. And I think the people that were running the show wanted it to be about the talent and to be about the dancers and not to be there, not to have rumors like going back and forth that we were there to kind of, you know, be eye candy for the player. So honestly, I never spoke to a player. Literally, the only time we would share a court is at like tech rehearsal before. No, no players are like trying to slide it in. No, absolutely not.

It's probably a good thing. At the time. It's that vanilla? Yeah, it's so vanilla. I know, no juice there. At the time. It's that vanilla? Yeah, it's so vanilla. I know, no juice there. At the time, we couldn't even, and this isn't 2012 to 2014, I couldn't even post on Instagram

about anything related to the Brooklynettes or the NBA. Like we were very much not, I mean, now they can, it's a different landscape, but yeah, I couldn't post on social. Yeah, it was kind of a bummer. The tryouts are gnarly.

I know this. Michael doesn't even know this. I've never told you this. I tried out for the Chargers cheerleaders. It is so gnarly what they make you do. Let me tell you. So the first, the year I was auditioning, by the way, this is like the third time

I had auditioned for the NBA Nets. People don't realize the process. They had just moved from New Jersey to Brooklyn. So it was like this like starting year, who the team was going to be at the Barclays Center. So not only is the audition hard in general, but because it was the first year, they were making it into this whole like big event with press involved. So it was so grueling. So grueling. Day after day, our final audition was in front of a live audience with live judges.

The judges. It was intense. The judges. Yeah. I mean, I know nothing about what you went through, but it seems like what that did is it set you up to be who you are today. It was so powerful. It's like those experiences are what has helped you be so successful. Well, I think too, like, let's take it back. Let's like remove a layer. I didn't just rock up and like get the audition. This was like my third or fourth time auditioning.

Oh my God, and you're such an amazing dancer. That's so crazy. But I mean, you know, you just, you never know. And I think at that point, at that time for the audition, I was like, if I don't get this, honestly, I was like, it had, I was like, the clock was ticking. I was like, this isn't working. I should probably move back to Santa Barbara. So let's do a few more auditions and figure it out. And I ended up getting it. But it wasn't, I think, again, people just assume that they see the story and they're like, oh, of course, you just got it. No, I had to go back multiple times.

Tenacity is underrated, I am telling you, I would like to round this out. You said something in the beginning that we didn't get to touch on. And I think it would help a lot of people. You said that you were obsessed with exercise and that you were obsessed with counting calories and you're obsessive about it. There's probably a lot of people who are listening that are in that similar state. What are like three tips or resources or things that you did to help you get out of that head space? I know dance and combining fitness in your job was one of them, but is there anything micro? Yes. And this is really just can be cringeworthy to a lot of people, but it is so

important as women that we are in tune with the things that we're telling ourselves, the stories that we're telling ourselves, that we're believing about ourselves. We really need to figure out that conversation and change that conversation. For me, it was that. It was reading a book called Women, Food, and God by Janine Roth. And then if I look back, to be honest, I really wish I had been in therapy you know I think for a lot of women and men if you're listening and you're in this like cycle and it's not nothing's working and you're frustrated go talk to a professional because I honestly think that my recovery journey would have been so much faster if I didn't think I needed to do it on my own and then just trying to think you know small things like you know little bits of meditation here and there. But I think really powerful is that conversation

that you're having with yourself and the things that you're believing about yourself. Leave us with a couple of brands of snacks before you go. Oh, I forgot to talk about my snacks that I have. Sorry. So I do love a tortilla chip. Okay. So I love from the ground up, their cauliflower chips. Yum. Cheddar nacho is the best.

Okay. Bean fields. We need to get this for Zaza. Bean fields. Amazing. From the ground up. No, no. These are three different.

These are all, I'm very, very passionate about chips. From the ground up is a brand. Yes. Bean fields is another. I'm going to are all three. I'm very, very passionate about chips. From the Ground Up is a brand. Yes. Beanfield is another. I'm going to write this down. Go on. I'm getting hungry now. I think what's our favorite Beanfield flavor? No, we have Pico de Gallo. Amazing. And then Siete. Love Siete.

I can crush a burger Siete. Have you listened to their NPRs, How I Built This? No. Great. Oh, I need to listen to that. It's really good. I'm a huge fan of that brand. Where can everyone find you?
