ON THE REAL: I need to lose 20 pounds. | Janelle Copeland

Mar 29, 2022

Let’s be honest… Weight is a big deal for most women. But we really don't talk about it OPENLY much, do we? Well, I wanna share a few things I’ll be focusing on over the next month or so because I think it might inspire YOU to also take action! 

Eddie and I used to be BODYBUILDERS! We won 1st place in 2 competitions, and then decided we were done with it. 

One because we went an ENTIRE YEAR with NO SUGAR! And truthfully, we fell out of love with that way-too-over-the-top “HEALTHY” lifestyle. Yet 7 years later, we’re jumping back in! *Not into bodybuilding, but we both really wanna dedicate some time to get into better shape. 

So, here’s our commitment: During the month of April, Eddie and I are committing to lose 10 lbs. Now I know it’s waaay easier for men, so LORD PRAY FOR ME! But I thought I’d invite you to come along with us!

If you’ve been putting your health off, and you wanna join me, join The Pusher Society today! It’s only $24 a month for guidance, strategy and ACCOUNTAB...

Not my circus, not my monkeys

Mar 22, 2022

To say things have been chaotic in the Copeland household is an understatement. 

We could easily complain, break down, seek out empathy from others, and play the victim card but we just aren’t those people. 

Instead, we’ve held it together (for the most part), have come together as a family, and are pushing through one day at a time. 

We’ll dive into all the details in this week’s PUSH podcast episode (you won’t wanna miss this)! 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed… 

  • Intentionality is parenting (07:42)
  • Enthusiasm is key to success (15:54)
  • Sh*t everywhere (18:16)
  • Chaos all over (24:49)
  • Hella efficiency (25:12)
  • Not my circus, not my monkeys (32:20)
  • Life lesson from Jordan Copeland (34:30)

The one thing that comes to mind as we deal with all this craziness is intention. 

We’ve realized after 40 years that when you show up in life with intention and purpose, things just have a way of working itself out for you. 

The truth is, there’s no medal for the BIGG...

We’re Surrounded By Idiots!!!

Mar 17, 2022

I want to be clear that we don't think anyone's an idiot. We're just not those types of people. So if you clicked on this blog post to hear some, then friend, I’m sorry, this isn’t the blog for you. 

If you know anything about us from Instagram, Facebook, in real life or even if you've been listening to the push podcast for a while, you know that our entire segment on what in the world is literally our way of being curious about dumb shit that people do, that we think might be kind of dumb or odd. But it's still us showing up in a way that's curious! 

That’s really what this episode of the PUSH Podcast stemmed from; curiosity around how people act and communicate. 

So, I wanna ask: do you solely hang out with people who have similar beliefs to you? It’s tempting to always surround yourself with people who have the same personality type as you. You fire each other up, you push the other to make decisions and take actions you would normally make, and you tend to agree with that per...

What to do when life is NOT going your way!

Mar 08, 2022

I think we can all agree that life isn’t in any way shape or form easy. In fact it’s the exact opposite. Life is freaking HARD. No one gives you a manual for it and you just kinda have to wing it as you go. But that’s also the beauty in life. 

So the question is, “what do you do when life is just NOT going your way?” 

Do you crumble at the thought of getting out of bed in the morning? Do you fake your way through the bullshit? Do you power through and trust that everything will work out in the end? 

Everyone copes with obstacles and challenges differently but what we’ve found is that ignoring and hiding from our problems will only lead us to breaking down; physically and mentally. 

Would you agree? 

Life is full of challenges and sometimes it doesn’t matter how hard we try; things just feel like they’re piling on top of us. We’ve definitely been there and it can also feel really lonely. 

 We wanted to bring this up because mental health has been a HUGE ISSUE that’s taken a fro...

The Kanye CONFIDENCE Code-10 Tips To Help You Build Insane Kayne-like Confidence!

Mar 01, 2022

Reading the title of this blog, you either are all about it because you wanna learn tips on how to be more confident or you're curious why we’re talking about Kayne West. 

So here’s the tea… 

I’m personally not a fan of Kayne West but I am curious about people and their behaviors and the way they operate so when we recently watched the new Kayne West documentary on Netflix, called, “Jeen Yuhs,” we immediately knew we had to talk about it on the podcast! 

One reason is because a lot of people are polarized by Kayne. They either think he’s narcissistic, egotistical, or cocky; while others think he’s literally a GENIUS. The second reason is because after watching his documentary, which he started 20 years ago before he was even a rapper, we were mind-blown by the unprecedented amount of self-confidence he had; so much so that we were inspired to pull 10 tips to help you BUILD more confidence. 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed…

Feb 22, 2022

It’s been awhile since we did a relationship/marriage topic on the podcast so in honor of Valentine’s Day just passing, we wanted to talk a little bit about relationships; specifically some of the most uncomfortable but necessary conversations you need to be having in your relationships.

Why You Need To BET ON YOURSELF Now (and more often)!

Feb 15, 2022

When was the last time you were brave? 

Can you think of anytime specifically? 

The thing is we do “brave” things all the time, but because it’s not necessarily something that represents success, we don’t celebrate it. 

If you’re anything like Eddie and I, which you’re reading this blog and are hopefully a listener of the PUSH Podcast, then you’re all about self-improvement and bettering yourself. 

In order to grow, you have to get out of your comfort zone and do something that's unfamiliar to you. Sometimes, that may involve investing in YOURSELF, whether that’s a course, a gym membership, a mastermind program; the key is that you have to take RISKS in order to achieve greatness and grow! 

Here’s a breakdown of what Eddie and I discussed… 

  • What in the world (02:35)
  • When in your life were you most brave (11:11)
  • The powerful thing about fear (18:15)
  • Getting to the right state of mind to tackle fear (18:15)
  • How to approach fearful situations (30:22)

How To NOT LOSE YOUR SHIT! - Simple Strategies To Help You Hold It Together

Feb 08, 2022

Question: What do you do when something terrible happens to you? 

Do you let it consume you? Do you immediately go from level 0 to level 12? Or do you acknowledge the challenge or obstacle and move on?
