Welcome to Spring!

I hope this season is starting to give you a skip in your step.  For me, this weather change is long awaited and nothing is better than getting outdoors , smelling fresh cut grass, pulling weeds and planting annuals.  With each new day, it gets us that much closer to summer and warm weather.  With that in mind, we have exciting Spring fashion trends to explore.  Jenn has put together an outfit ANYONE can wear, no matter what your size.  So, take a look at the Spring Fashion 2012 page.  We also have recorded Podcast #6.  When you get a free moment……yes, give yourself that free moment and take a listen.  Our discussion asks, “Who’s more work?  Your husband or your kids?”  We had a good laugh recording it, so we hope it gives you a chuckle.  Happy listening!

Bonjour!

We hope you all are getting to enjoy the beautiful weather we have had here in suburban Philadelphia.  It is hard to believe winter is coming to a close so early, but we are thrilled to be thinking about spring fashion.  Jenn is working diligently on providing everyone some fabulous ensembles.  Can’t wait for the photos.  Below you will find our latest podcast for your listening pleasure.   In this episode Jenn discusses her experience with trying the latest shampoo rival to the famous and pricey, Wen shampoo.  It is called Hair One Cleanser and Conditioner and sells for approximately $15 a bottle whereas Wen runs more than double.  We also talk about how much we HATE going to the grocery store each week and laugh at the interesting shoppers and situations we encounter.  Hope you can relate.  Enjoy!

Cheers!

What’s New at Want2Be?

Hello listeners and readers!  Jenn and I are finally back from a bit of a hiatus.  We’ve been trying to get back on track from the holidays and the month of January has seemed to pass like a flash.  Therefore,  we apologize for the delay but ARE happy to report we are up and running again.

With that said, we have a lot of great information sharing for you.  The first is our latest podcast.  This is Podcast #4 for us and it discusses the horror of buying a magnifying mirror.  If you have one or are thinking of buying one, then this podcast is for you.  You’ll never look at a magnifying mirror again….literally!

Next, check out our Must Have’s.  We have about 9 new items we feel are worth giving a try.  If you like wine, we’ve got 2 favorite selections.  One is a Pinot Grigio and another for a Malbec wine.  There are also beauty product recommendations for Hair Spray, Body Mist, Lip Gloss, Dry Shampoo, Eyeliner and Nail Polish.  And before the winter is through, take a look at a great deal on Flannel Pajamas, while supplies last.  Jenn also wanted to report that she bought the Jilbere Palladium Ceramic Hair Dryer and LOVES it!  The $59.99 seems to be well worth the price.  Thanks Amy C. for offering the idea!

We’ve also added 2 new categories under our Must Have’s.  They are Must Exercise and Must Do.  Can you guess what Must Exercise is about?  Yes, that’s it!  Dreaded exercises to maintain good health….or so they say.  Jenn’s husband, Brian has been an athletic trainer for over 20 years and has agreed to give us torturous tips on targeting specific problem areas.  His first suggestion is for the butt.  Enjoy the burn ladies!  The Must Do’s are simple, random ideas about how to give yourself a nice treat.  This time, we want you to take one evening for yourself and paint your nails!  You’ll be amazed at the pick me up it gives you!

Lastly, we have a wonderful Fab Interview.  We have profiled Melissa Perrine who is 46 years old and going back to college for her undergraduate degree.  If you’ve ever considered going back to school, we believe you will find this Q & A interesting and inspiring.  Happy reading!

We hope you welcome our latest product recommendations and thoughts on how to pamper yourself.  In the works, I will be reviewing my experience with renting a designer dress online.  Hmm…Let’s hope it fits.  Stay tuned….

Cheers!

Welcome to my Want2BePodcast.com blog!

This page is designed to keep you up-to-date on all things in between each month’s podcast.  Originally, I thought I would not write a blog because it seemed like too much work.  Just bein’ honest.  But…….since we are now in a position to launch this baby, I felt it was necessary to keep you informed about what is going on or lack-there-of.  For both the podcast and the website, there is a very important component missing and that is the RSS feed.  I personally have never subscribed to an RSS feed, but do recognize the importance for the people who use it.  Therefore,  I am diligently trying to figure out how to get it to work.  Have you guessed that I am extremely non-technical?  Luckily for me, when I hit a brick wall, I elicit the generous help from my IT friends who do their best to walk me through things.  So thank you to Keith, formerly from www.mindofroot.com and Don, from e426.org.

I am also struggling with having the podcast available on itunes as well as creating a FaceBook page.  Just another glitch in my social media efforts.  I am trying to make everything look as professional as possible, but FB is gonna fall a little short.  Are you also wondering about Twitter?  Well, I haven’t even tackled that beast yet.  Don’t worry, it’ll get there, but I must complete the others first.

In the meantime, please enjoy what we DO have up and running.  Always remember this site is about YOU and it can only continue to exist with your participation.  So, share, share, share your ideas by sending us an email through our Contact Us page.

Cheers!
