The Gringas fill Kariâs bathtub with ice and then sit in it for six minutes each, while Kristin Weitzel of Warrior Woman Mode talks them through it. Can the ladies channel their inner Wim Hof and make it through gracefully, or do they splash like biohacking bitches?

Coronavirus has us all thinking of ways we can optimize our bodies for peak performance â that is, unless youâre Kristin Weitzel of Warrior Woman Mode. Kristinâs been in this shit since â92 (as Biggie would say), and sheâs here to walk us through the biohacking options â even if weâre stuck at home.
The ladies talk about everything from Blue Cannatine, which is all the rage in Silicon Valley, to taking ice baths, which is all the rage in Kariâs bathtub.

Kari and Ashley hit three continents in three weeks, starting with the US for a work trip and Belgium for their friend Steveâs 40th birthday party. Ashley wins an orgasm faking contest, and Kari signs a major new PR client for The Content Factory.
The next stop: Goa, India for the Holi festival. The Noname Guesthouse in Arambol sponsored the ladyâs stay, and Holi was everything the ladies thought it would be (Google image search Holi, if youâre not familiar with it!).
The ladies left Amsterdam the same day the first case of coronavirus showed up in the city. A week into their India trip, it becomes clear that they need to get out of India â and FAST. Borders start closing, and not everyone in their travel group makes it out before India totally locks down.

Itâs a new decade (depending on who you talk to), and the Gringas are ringing in 2020 in typically epic fashion â starting with a masquerade ball for New Yearâs Eve. Kari goes through a breakup, and Ashley deals with a bike accident which kicks off a discussion about some of the most hardcore biking injuries the ladies and their friends have experienced in Amsterdam.
The ladies talk about goal setting and achieving, as well as their New Yearâs resolutions. Kariâs going to write a book, and Ashley is going to take her career to the next level. Thereâs also a story about Helen Keller that you donât know, and wonât want to miss.
Coming up, the ladies head to Brussels for another magical mystery birthday tour and head to Goa, India for the Holi Festival March 9-10. Want to join them? The Noname Guesthouse in Goa is sponsoring the India episodes of the podcast.

Ashley and Kari head to Antalya, Turkey to celebrate Thanksgiving and get their medical tourism on. The ladies kick it off with some Botox and fillers, at around a 75% discount on what theyâd spend in the US or Amsterdam.
Kariâs spent several months over the last year in Antalya, and she and Nico play host to a crew of six friends for the holiday.
Sourcing a Turkey in Turkey turned out to be a surprisingly difficult endeavor, and the ladies visit a sketchy theme park. Ashley leaves her dog, Djoko, in the hands of a pet sitter she found on TrustedHousesitters.com while sheâs in Turkey. Sheâs such a fan, TrustedHousitters is now sponsoring the podcast (use coupon code Workationing10 to save 10% on your annual membership!).

Workationing has a new Gringa! Ashley Osmond is introduced to the podcast audience as the new co-host. She comes in hot with stories of her appearance as âKateâ on The Celebrity Apprentice and her high-profile family (sheâs related to Donny and Marie Osmond).
Kari met Ashley at a friendâs houseboat party in Amsterdam about a year ago, and the ladies became fast friends â and soon to be travel companions (The Workationing Podcast is going to Goa, India!).
An experienced solo traveler, Ashley came into the digital nomad lifestyle by teaching English, and has since moved into remote recruiting work. Her company recently co-hosted an event with the Summit Institute in Utah, and she talks about the value of in-person networking at events.
While Ashley was in Utah, Kari was coordinating a Magical Mystery Birthday tour that took her through 7 countries in 3 days: Turkey, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France and Switzerland.
The birthday tour ended at a chalet nestled in the French Alps, overlooking Lake Annecy. Heads up: if youâre looking for a party theme that slays on Insta, âStupid Formalâ is where itâs at.
Ashley had to figure out what to do with her dog while sheâs in India, and the Workationing Facebook group came through for her in a big way: somebody recommended Trusted Housesitters, and the problem was solved.
Several people in the Workationing group are able to live the digital nomad lifestyle by getting free housing in exchange for watching other peopleâs pets while the homeowners are out of town. Ashleyâs working it the other way

The Gringas are back, with an epic catch up and big news. Kellyâs coming in hot from Gainesville, Florida â the home of Tom Petty â with some massive career and life changes. She also found love in Cleveland!
Kariâs in Antalya, Turkey and about to hit a mystery location that will be included in the next podcast episode.
In this episode the ladies explain what theyâve been up to for the last several months, and how manifestation and trusting your gut can lead you to exactly the place where you need to be â even if it isnât where you expect it.
Some new characters are briefly introduced, which will lead to some fun guest hosts in future episodes of the podcast. The ladies also reflect on what the last two years of Workationing have meant to them, what theyâve learned and how their lives have been transformed by the experience.
NOTE: Kari's audio on this episode is "less than ideal" but for obvious reasons, this isn't one we could re-record.

Despite making Amsterdam their home base for 2018, the Gringas have still been making lots of time to travel! Amsterdam is a great hub for traveling in Europe, and the ladies made it a point this year to take full advantage of that fact.
From Turkey to Paris to popping to another country for lunch, Kari and Kelly have been up to a lot over the past few months -- and theyâre ready to tell you all about their adventures!
And it true Workationing style, this episode was recorded while the Gringas were on two different continents. Kari is back in the Netherlands while Kelly is back in the States for the holidays. We take full advantage of the wonders of technology (shoutout to Uberconference!) to make this episode happen.

The Gringas are back, and have knocked another two items off of their bucket lists: flying a plane and surviving the zombie apocalypse. Kariâs boyfriend Nico is introduced, Kellyâs brother comes to visit and they all go up (and scarily down) at the Rotterdam Flight Club.
Next the ladies suit up at one of Europeâs biggest virtual reality experiences, where they enter into the zombie apocalypse and have to shoot their way to survival...and only one of them make it.

This is a tough one for Kari and Kelly. They recently lost a dear internet friend, Jodi Cullen, at the age of 40 to breast cancer. Jodi was a digital nomad and a bright light who inspired so many people in her too-short life. This episode is dedicated to her memory.
Jodiâs death has the ladies thinking about how to live without regrets. Taking risks, living intentionally, and having integrity are all discussed. Kari and Kelly donât have all the answers about how to live your life without regrets, but theyâre sharing everything that theyâve learned.

As fans of the Workationing podcast already know, Kari and Kelly huge advocates of the digital nomad lifestyle. The ladies have used their ability to work remotely to travel the world, knock countless items off their bucket lists, and generally live a more intentional and fulfilling life. However, being location independent isnât all sunshine, rainbows, and killer shots for Insta.
In this episode the gringas are keeping it very real about the fact that becoming a digital nomad takes a lot of hard work. You need to have a skill set that allows you to work remotely, the ability to consistently show major ROI to clients who will never see your face, and enough work ethic and determination to work hard even when youâd rather be out exploring whichever awesome new city youâre currently posted up in.There are also logistical issues. Youâll most likely need to ditch your rent/mortgage, find a place to store anything you want to keep, rehome pets, breakup with partners who donât share your vision, find someone to handle your mail, figure out what to do with your car, get international travelers insurance, and much more!
On top of that, youâll need a lot of balls. Itâs not easy to make a big life transition under any circumstances, but when youâre choosing a lifestyle that your friends and family arenât familiar with and that is, by its very nature uncertain, it can be hard to stick to your guns. Throw in the anxiety that comes with throwing yourself totally outside of your comfort zone, and you have a recipe for a lot of sleepless nights and crying jags.
However, the ladies still recommend this lifestyle to anyone. Itâs not always easy, but it has consistently been worth all the stress (and even the occasional heartache) that has come with it.

Itâs been a long road, but in the last year and a half your gringas have lost â we shit you not â almost 140 pounds. And Kelly has lost over 100 of that on her own.
Both Kari and Kelly are loving this new healthier version of themselves and are proud of everything that theyâve accomplished, however, as they reflect back on the process itâs definitely a little bittersweet.
The ladies discuss the traumatic life events that lead to the weight gain, struggling with body dysmorphia, the moment when Kelly knew things had gone too far, and all of the ways in which losing the equivalent of a chubby 5th grader can actually be a giant mindfuck. (Spoiler alert: they cry again.)
Kari and Kelly also talk about what life looks like now, and what they are doing to maintain their new healthier outlook. Losing weight and keeping it off is definitely not a diet â itâs a lifestyle change â and for your gringas it still feels like a constant science experiment to figure out what works and what doesnât.Want to learn about digital nomad life, and keep up with the ladies in real time?

After the releasing the Relationing Thrillogy, Kari and Kelly got TONS of letters from listeners who wanted to weigh in with their thoughts as well â and they decided to read some of their faves out loud.
The ladies heard from a listener who has been on 93 Tinder first dates (the gringas were shook), a listener who is exploring polyamory as solopoly person, and they even read a letter calling them out for being a bit hypocritical. (Hey, a good point is a good point.)
Kari and Kelly also discuss some larger issues including some recent heartbreak theyâve encountered and some of the more nuanced aspects of dating in the digital age.

In the final chapter of the Relationshit trilogy, Kari and Kelly talk about when to walk away from a relationship...and when to run away screaming. When youâre a person of a certain age, should you settle at some point? When do you know when itâs time to hit the âtap outâ button, whether that means staying or going?
If you donât have a shared vision of the future, it might be time to go. See also: if youâre not sexually compatible or the chemistry just isnât there. What happens when youâre no longer sexually attracted to your partner â or your partner is no longer sexually attracted to you?
The ladies also get into trust and communication issues, and what that looks like (if youâre constantly going through your partnersâ phones looking for evidence of cheating, either youâve got a broken boyfriend/girlfriend selector or youâre the one with trust issues.
Finally, what does an abusive relationship look like? Kari opens up about her experiences with emotional abuse, and the ladies talk about what different types of abuse can look like. When your partner constantly undermines or gaslights you, or generally treats you like shit, itâs time to go. If your partner ever hits you, itâs time to run away screaming (and get help on your way out, because it can be a dangerous situation).

In Part II of the relationshit series, Kari and Kelly talk about dating in the digital era...starting with the decision to try online dating in the first place. Kari admits to her shocking history of internet dating (sheâs a real O.G. on that front), and the ladies talk about Tinder strategies, first date escape plans and seeing your ex and his new wife post FB photos in front of the Christmas tree you bought years ago. The Gringas also have you covered on some strategies to make your Google search results more attractive to prospective dates.
Dating in the digital era comes with all kinds of questions. How deeply do you stalk your dates? When do you move from Tinder chat to WhatsApp or text? When do you delete your online dating profiles, and does that mean youâre in an exclusive relationship? When â or do you? â make it âFacebook official?âThen thereâs the breakup side of dating in the digital era â do you make an announcement on Facebook? Do you stay social media friends with their friends? Block them on all fronts? Instagram wars, cyberstalking your exâs new partners and more plugs for Internet therapy abound (the ladies love their internet therapists so much, they have an affiliate relationship with BetterHelp â get a week of free online therapy at betterhelp.com/workationing).

The ladies are finally making good on their promise to talk about relationshit, and in this ep they cover all aspects of dating in your 30s (and beyond). Everything is on the table, incuding exes and sexes, financial differences, dating with (or actively without) kids, sexual compatibility, age gaps and the âwhat ifâ relationships that failed along the way.
The reality of dating while getting older (wait, is that my biological alarm I hear going off in the not-to-far distance) is hitting the ladies like a speeding tram. Kari and Kelly discuss how Sex and the City wasnât just a show, but a prophecy, and what that means for them and their friends.
The vulnerability level of this episode is off the charts, and the ladies discuss things that many single women in their 30s and 40s think about but rarely talk about. Itâs a tough episode, but at least weâve all got internet therapy to help us cope with it all.

Kari and Kelly have been working hard to launch their new training program for aspiring digital nomads. Along the way theyâve been having lots of discussions with people about the mental blocks that keep them from moving forward toward their goals, and theyâre beginning to notice a pattern.
From getting stuck in bad habits to grappling with imposter syndrome, there are a lot of mental landmines to maneuver around when youâre making a big change in your life. The ladies tackle the most common ones and share what theyâve learned about how to deal with them. (Though admittedly, itâs an ongoing battle.)
Kari and Kelly also dish on their secret weapon for self-improvement: their internet therapists. Theyâre easier, less expensive, and more flexible than a traditional therapist and they can be a real lifesaver when it comes to accountability and processing through major life changes.

In the Giant Catch-Up, Part 2 the ladies dig into how they caught a major case of the winter blues. Business is booming, which required travel to San Diego and Edinburgh, Scotland...where the ladies holed up in their AirBnb and binge-watched Outlander.
Both Kari and Kelly experience breakups, and faceplant off of the keto diet and into gaining a weird amount of weight in a very short period of time. Expatting and integrating into Dutch society proves to be more challenging than the Gringas were expecting.
Kari visits a Dutch spa, where the situation is very much coed and everyone is 100% naked. Awkwardness and embarrassment ensue.
The ladies pull out of their nosedive and back onto their bikes, over to the gym â Jos is back in the game, and theyâre seeing major progress. Your Gringas get accepted into an exclusive club, and win friends through Kellyâs Total Eclipse of Karaoke.

Life can come at you fast, and the ladies have been busy with business, expatting to Amsterdam, conferences and travel. In this episode, Kari and Kelly catch you up on what theyâve been up to.
Thereâs some Catskills cabin action (thanks, Jackson!), a long road trip (for Kelly), Kari heads to Cape Town to cage dive with sharks and taste wine in South Africa with her boyfriend (spoiler alert: they break up).
The Gringas talk about moving to Amsterdam â Kari spends the holidays there, while Kelly wraps things up in Ohio. There are roving groups of Dutch people in blackface, a disastrous bathroom incident at a New Yearâs Eve party and...SO. MUCH. MORE.
