Hello Strong Sunflowers,

We made it! 🌞 In this final episode of the season, we’re hitting pause, reflecting on the magic that’s unfolded, and making space for what’s next. From stripping things down to our roots to embracing the beauty of change, this season has been all about growth, authenticity, and real conversations.

We share what it felt like to slow down the interviews, lean into our own stories, and rediscover what lights us up creatively. Whether we were channeling Love Island vibes or learning to sit still long enough to hear our own voice — we were evolving. 🌺

This is your reminder that taking a break isn’t quitting — it’s nourishment. Creativity needs rest. Growth needs space. And your next adventure? It starts with trusting the now.

In this episode we discuss:

✨ Lessons from this season of transformation

✨ What it means to grow out of old insecurities

✨ The necessity of rest, stillness, and creative renewal

✨ Our plans for the summer and what’s ahead

✨ Why community and authenticity fuel everything we do

Thank you for blooming with us. We’ll be back in September — rested, recharged, and ready to bloom.

xoxo,

G & Z 🌻🌴

Aloha, Sunflowers! 🌻🌊

We just wrapped one of the most unforgettable Strong Girl Summers — and we’re taking you with us to the islands! In this episode, we’re sharing how our time in Hawaii has been beautifully different — one trip, two very unique journeys.

Zana here — back on the island I once called home. After living in Oahu for five years, this trip was emotional and nostalgic. I felt one with the ʻāina and the ocean, like I was being welcomed back by an old friend. Traveling with my kids (ages 7 to 13!) brought a mix of joy and chaos — but watching them experience the island I love made every moment worth it.

And it’s G! Living my Love Island fantasy, okay?! Solo adventures, spontaneous dates, dancing under the stars — I’ve been fully embracing Strong Girl Summer energy. This trip reminded me that freedom is sacred, and sometimes the best version of you shows up when you’re far from home.

From hiking and malasadas to family bonding and flirting by the beach, this episode is a heart-filled reflection on how one place can hold so many different kinds of magic.

So whether you’re in your motherhood era, solo queen era, or somewhere in between — we hope this convo inspires you to live your life out loud, island-style.

xoxo,

G & Z 🌺🌻

Hello Strong Sunflowers! 🌻

It’s Strong Girl Summer, and we’re diving into a powerful conversation about self-love, body image, and the choice to bloom in your own way. This week, we’re joined by our beautiful sunflower Diana, who shares her deeply personal journey with cosmetic surgery.

From flared jeans and confidence highs to the emotional decision to get a tummy tuck, Diana opens up about what it means to choose surgery from a place of love—not insecurity. We talk about preparation, realistic expectations, post-op recovery, and the support every sunflower deserves when healing.

This episode is a reminder that loving your body and choosing change can go hand in hand. We’re so grateful to Diana for showing us that there’s strength in honoring your story and doing what feels right for YOU.

Let’s keep blooming boldly, Strong Sunflowers.

xoxo,

G&Z 🌻

This week, we’re bringing you an inspiring story of transformation, strength, and self-love. Zana sits down with Irving Dominguez, a passionate wellness advocate whose fitness journey began at just 16 when he was diagnosed as pre-diabetic. That wake-up call launched him into a lifelong pursuit of health—not just in the gym, but in mind, body, and soul.
In this powerful episode, we dive into:

💪 How mindset shapes every part of the fitness journey

🥗 The role of nutrition in building a sustainable, healthy lifestyle

💡 The evolution of strength—from physical to emotional and mental resilience

🧠 Why hobbies and joy outside of fitness matter for mental wellness

👯‍♀️ And the importance of community in overcoming obstacles and plateaus

Plus, we wrap up with some rapid-fire questions that reveal Irving’s favorite workouts, inspirations (shoutout to his sister!), and what strength really means to him.

This episode is your reminder that strength is fluid, healing takes time, and joy is part of the journey. 🌻

Hello Strong Sunflowers 🌻

we're shedding light on a silent crisis—loneliness. In a world more connected than ever through social media, why are so many of us feeling more isolated than ever before?

We dive into how platforms meant to bring us together are often the very things pulling us apart—fueling self-comparison, cyberbullying, and disconnection, especially among our youth. Mental health struggles are rising, and tragically, so are the rates of suicide.

Join us as we talk honestly about the effects of this digital age, the importance of human connection, and how we can break the cycle of loneliness—starting with ourselves and the communities around us.

This episode is a reminder that you're not alone—and it’s time we talk about it.
