Welcome back to the "Yes, We Can!" podcast! 🎙️ In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, host Kira Andersen sits down with the incredible Lauren and Chris Pronger. Chris, a former St. Louis Blues hockey player, and Lauren, founder of the wellness travel company Well Inspired Travels, share their journey of navigating life’s challenges, personal growth, and their mission to inspire others to live well.
Lauren and Chris open up about their lives, including the struggles and triumphs that have shaped who they are today.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
