Explore every episode of the podcast Shawna and LaLa: Life Beyond The Mic

Shawna and LaLa have A LOT to catch up on this week! The girls recap their weekend in Connecticut seeing Mya live at Mohegan Sun and talk about what an amazing show she put on. LaLa stayed at Foxwoods Resort Casino and finally got to try Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen, while Shawna came home completely exhausted and seriously lacking sleep.  And the craziness didn’t stop there… After waiting FOUR MONTHS for her MRI appointment, Shawna finally had the big day arrive... Only to find out the MRI machine BROKE that morning!  She shares what happened, how the day turned into a much longer ordeal than expected, and how she didn't finally make it home until 9 PM.  Plus, LaLa talks about Nex Playground and why it has become such a great activity for the kids. Instead of sitting in front of another screen, they’re jumping, moving, exercising and using their imaginations while they play. It’s perfect for rainy summer days, cold and snowy winter days, or anytime the kids need to burn off some energy indoors.

Can your gut predict your health? This week on Shawna and LaLa: Life Beyond The Mic, we're joined by Janelle and Grant from Viome for an eye-opening conversation about gut health, the microbiome, personalized nutrition, inflammation, digestion, food sensitivity, and the future of precision wellness.  Could the bacteria living in your gut influence how you feel every day? How does microbiome testing work? Can personalized recommendations help improve your overall health? We dive into the science behind Viome, how their testing works, and why more people are turning to personalized health insights instead of one-size-fits-all wellness advice.

This week on Life Beyond The Mic, Shawna shares a real and honest update on her TMS therapy journey.  Then LaLa asks a simple question that turns into a full conversation… what’s something people brag about that you can’t stand? From designer labels to posting the “perfect” life, things get real fast. In the middle of it all, LaLa brings up designer sunglasses and Shawna immediately thinks she’s being called out.  Shawna also opens up about planning her mom’s 70th birthday and the unexpected stress of figuring out the guest list… including whether kids should be invited.

Plus, they sit down with Ali Stroker to talk about the upcoming ReelAbilities Film Festival and what still needs to change in Hollywood.

Spring is finally here, and this episode goes from wild throwbacks to real-life conversations we’re all thinking about.We sit down with Chad and Jazmine Faries from the documentary Iron Family, sharing Jazmine’s incredible journey living with Down syndrome, her confidence, resilience, and her dream of becoming a storyteller. Her story, and the strength of her family, is something everyone needs to hear, especially following Down Syndrome Awareness Day.  Then… we shift gears.  After a weekend event in the city, LaLa shares a moment that sparked a full throwback to the early 2000's, when partying Thursday through Sunday and still making it to work was just normal life.But what really gets us talking… Kids are hitting their parents?!  We’re seeing more and more of this behavior being labeled as “gentle parenting,” and we honestly can’t believe some parents are just accepting it. When did this become normal? And what happened to discipline and respect?
This episode is a mix of inspiration, nostalgia, and real, unfiltered conversations about how much things have changed.

Shawna headed to Mohegan Sun for an overnight trip to see 3 Days Grace, rushing from one thing to the next—only to spend most of the night waiting on lines. The next day? More of the same. She rushed home to prep for her colonoscopy, arrived on time for her 1:15pm appointment… and didn’t get called back until 4:30. 
But that wasn’t even the craziest part.
During the procedure… Shawna woke up.
Instead of panicking, she found herself watching it happen in real time—and actually thought it was fascinating. Meanwhile, LaLa absolutely cannot stop laughing over the entire situation.
As if that wasn’t enough chaos, Gio joins track and somehow ends up on a two-hour bus ride home… despite living just five minutes from school.
Plus, we sit down with Wendy from Wendylandia to talk about her business and her experience at Modern Day Wife.
