BLACK FRIDAY + CYBER MONDAY | NAKED NUTRITION
It’s that time of year when we’re thinking about the holiday season, planning our holiday gifting, and of course counting down to the end of the year! With all of that coming into our schedules, we’re also focused on maintaining our calendars, staying on top of our routines, and thinking about the New Year!
With so many changes in our day-to day, we can’t forget about our body! It’s about making sure that we continue to workout, maintain the goals that we have set for ourselves, give appropriate nourishment that optimizes our work, and of course, give your body the recovery it needs. When you do all of these together, you are putting yourself in the best position as you navigate the holidays and as you head into 2025.
In terms of fueling your body appropriately, it’s always good to shake up your favorite product that you consume! We suggest that Naked Nutrition’s Orange Creatine Monohydrate Powder - Naked Creatine 1.1 LB – Naked Nutrition is a great one to add to your fitness routines.
As we all enjoy our favorite powders from this brand, it’s important to understand why Naked Creatine is a good one to include! Known as the highest grade, fastest dissolving, and rapidly absorbing creatine monohydrate that is available. This is for those that are looking to maximize their strength, it allows you to make your repetitions under sub-maximal load, you’ll find that there is a delay in the onset of fatigue, and it increases the body’s overall training capacity!
When you buy creatine supplements at other places, there are so many options in the market from those that can be mixed in your drink as well as in a gummy form. It’s important to read the labels and know that not all flavored creatine are created equally. You want to make sure that the flavored creatine uses natural vs artificial ingredients is essential.
When you purchase your flavored creatine at Naked Nutrition, it tends to be easier to ingest and therefore, you’ll want to add it into your workout sessions. This is because of the natural ingredients cause less stomach distress than artificial flavors. You’ll find that the natural flavoring in this creatine includes compounds that are produced by plats or animals as opposed to those that are made in a lab.
During the holiday season, we love when you gift others as well as yourself! During Black Friday/Cyber Monday, Naked Nutrition will have 15% off sitewide starting with Black Friday to Cyber Monday. If you’re purchasing from the app (available on Google Play and the App store), the sale will actually start a day earlier on Thanksgiving! It’s great way to stock up while supporting others’ journeys for their fitness track.

PHOENIX'S VISION ZERO COMMITMENT AND WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU
What would it take to make every street in Phoenix safe for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers alike? With traffic fatalities on the rise, the city has committed to Vision Zero, an ambitious initiative aimed at eliminating traffic deaths and serious injuries.
This approach combines strategic infrastructure improvements, community-driven solutions, and data-informed planning to address the city’s unique road safety challenges. Phoenix’s journey toward safer streets is not only transforming how residents move through their city but also creating a blueprint for urban safety that prioritizes every road user’s well-being.
Why Phoenix Needed Vision Zero - Road Safety Challenges
Phoenix's adoption of the Vision Zero initiative stems from a pressing need to address escalating road safety challenges. In 2021, the city recorded 28,258 traffic collisions, resulting in 10,749 injuries and 253 fatalities. Pedestrian-related collisions, though comprising only 2% of all incidents, accounted for a disproportionate 37% of all traffic fatalities. This alarming trend underscores the vulnerability of non-motorized road users and highlights the critical need for targeted safety interventions.
Further compounding the issue, Arizona has consistently ranked among the most perilous states for pedestrians. In 2022, the state reported a pedestrian fatality rate of 4.17 per 100,000 people, the second-highest in the nation. This statistic reflects broader systemic issues, including infrastructure inadequacies and driver behavior patterns that compromise pedestrian safety.
The Vision Zero initiative aims to confront these challenges head-on by implementing comprehensive strategies designed to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries, thereby fostering a safer environment for all road users.
Key Steps Phoenix Has Taken So Far
Innovative Bike Signals Lead the Way for Safer Streets
Phoenix has implemented a series of strategic measures to improve road safety for cyclists, pedestrians, and all road users. One significant upgrade was the city’s first bike-specific traffic signal, installed at 12th Street and Campbell Avenue.
This signal includes a Leading Bicycle Interval, giving cyclists a head start before vehicles move, reducing the risk of collisions at busy intersections. Additional intersection redesigns have also been rolled out, featuring more visible crosswalks and new dedicated bike lanes, all part of Phoenix's efforts to make roads safer and more accessible for non-vehicular traffic.
Red-Light Cameras Make a Comeback to Curb Dangerous Driving
In October 2024, Phoenix took another bold step by approving the reinstallation of red-light cameras at 10 high-risk intersections. This decision came in response to alarming crash statistics from previous years.
According to data, intersections equipped with red-light cameras saw a 31% reduction in red-light crashes, and even more remarkably, crashes in monitored directions decreased by 57% between 2001 and 2019. These cameras are expected to help curb dangerous driving behaviors that put pedestrians and cyclists at high risk.
PhxCAN Engages Local Communities in Road Safety Initiatives
Phoenix has also fostered stronger community involvement through its Phoenix Connected Active Neighborhoods (PhxCAN) initiative. This program works closely with residents in each of the city’s 15 urban villages to address localized safety needs.
Projects identified through PhxCAN are on a fast track, with implementation within one to two years, demonstrating Phoenix's commitment to delivering immediate improvements. The focus for late 2024 into mid-2025 is on neighborhoods like Maryvale and Alhambra, where changes are expected to enhance walkability and safety.
How Phoenix Residents Can Get Involved
Phoenix residents play a very important role in advancing the city's Vision Zero goals. One effective way to contribute is by participating in the Phoenix Connected Active Neighborhoods program, which engages community members in identifying and addressing local transportation safety concerns. By attending meetings and providing input, residents can influence the development of projects tailored to their neighborhoods, with implementation timelines ranging from one to two years.
While Phoenix's Vision Zero efforts aim to significantly reduce accidents, pedestrian injuries can still occur. If you or someone you know is involved in an accident, consulting a Phoenix pedestrian accident attorney can help navigate the legal process and ensure your rights are protected.
Residents can also stay informed and involved by attending Vision Zero Community Advisory Committee meetings. These meetings offer a platform to discuss ongoing and upcoming road safety initiatives and provide feedback directly to city officials. Meeting schedules and participation details are available on the City of Phoenix's official website. By actively engaging in these opportunities, Phoenix residents can help shape a safer and more walkable city for all.
What’s Next for Vision Zero in Phoenix: Exciting Plans and Future Goals
Active Transportation Plan Brings a Long-Term Vision for Bike Lanes
Looking to the future, Phoenix is focused on expanding its Vision Zero goals through the Active Transportation Plan, which was approved in May 2023 as an upgrade to the 2014 Bicycle Master Plan.
This new plan not only emphasizes safer infrastructure but aims to add a staggering 1,080 miles of new bike lanes by 2050. This ambitious vision aligns with Phoenix’s Transportation 2050 Plan, reflecting the city’s dedication to building a more accessible, bike-friendly environment across neighborhoods.
Major Safety Overhaul Planned for Indian School Road
Another major project on the horizon is an extensive safety enhancement along Indian School Road, spanning from 91st to 39th Avenue. With a $24.96 million federal grant, Phoenix will introduce pedestrian hybrid beacons, upgraded crosswalks, and additional safety infrastructure along this high-traffic corridor.
These enhancements are expected to significantly reduce pedestrian and cyclist accidents in an area known for its busy intersections and heavy foot traffic.
Data-Driven Road Safety Action Plan to Target Citywide Risks
Phoenix is also developing a comprehensive Road Safety Action Plan, which leverages data-driven analysis to identify and tackle safety risks across the city. This initiative includes the support of an 11-member Vision Zero Community Advisory Committee, which plays an active role in offering recommendations and ensuring community needs are addressed in each stage of RSAP implementation.
With these forward-looking projects, Phoenix is steadily working toward a future where roads are safer and more accessible for all residents, aligning with its Vision Zero goal of eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries.
How These Changes Impact Daily Life
The implementation of Phoenix's Vision Zero initiatives has led to tangible improvements in daily life for residents. The installation of bike-specific traffic signals, such as the one at 12th Street and Campbell Avenue, has enhanced safety for cyclists by reducing collision risks at busy intersections. The reinstallation of red-light cameras at 10 high-risk intersections has contributed to a 31% reduction in red-light running crashes, fostering a safer environment for all road users.
Community engagement through programs like PhxCAN has empowered residents to address local safety concerns, leading to tailored solutions that improve walkability and accessibility. These efforts have not only enhanced safety but also encouraged more active lifestyles, as residents feel more confident walking or cycling in their neighborhoods.
The city's commitment to expanding bike lanes and improving pedestrian infrastructure aligns with the Active Transportation Plan, aiming to add 1,080 new bike lane miles by 2050, further promoting sustainable and healthy modes of transportation.
Conclusion
What does it take to create a safer, more accessible city for all? Phoenix’s commitment to Vision Zero represents a comprehensive answer - investing in targeted infrastructure, fostering community involvement, and prioritizing data-driven solutions to eliminate traffic fatalities.
The city’s advancements, from bike-specific traffic signals to red-light cameras and expanded bike lanes, mark significant steps toward a future where pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers can share the roads more safely. By continuing to participate and stay engaged, residents of Phoenix can help drive this transformation, making their city a national model for road safety and walkable urban living.

AROUND THE FIRE THIS HOLIDAY SEASON | WALTON GOGGINS
This time of year is an exciting one as we begin to close one and look ahead to the next one. While we maintain our normal schedules, we also infuse it with the Holiday season - it’s great to share with friends and family, exchange gifts, increase celebratory moments, and so much more! We all know that they are key dates coming up that are focused on the exchange of gifts as well as obtaining them at various points. We took a moment to chat with Walton Goggins (Preadators, The Hateful Eight, Django Unchained) to find out about why he partnered with Walmart for the holiday season, what he loves about this time of year, and upcoming projects that he is involved in!
ATHLEISURE MAG: Obviously, we're going to talk about your amazing partnership with Walmart and what's going on with that. But we have a few questions to ask you because our readers are so excited that we're able to chat with you.
WALTON GOGGINS: Okay, okay, alright, fantastic!
AM: We've been a fan of yours since - you have too many things to name - Justified, Righteous Gemstones, George and Tammy, and the list can go on in film as well as in TV. We find you to be such an amazing actor who plays immersive and diverse characters. When did you realize that you wanted to be an actor?
WG: What a great question! I don't think that there was like a bolt of lightning that happened. I think it happened over the course of a very long period of time. I was raised mostly by women and a lot of interesting characters were around in my childhood and all of them just happened to be really interesting great storytellers.
AM: Right.
WG: So I'm listening to a lot of stories and then once I was given the microphone to start telling my own stories, you know, I had a natural kind of built-in audience that just kept saying, “no, no, keep keep talking Walt.” So, you kind of have that encouragement, you know, right out of the gate. It's hard to kind of do anything else. I genuinely just wanted to see the world. That was the main thing. Then it just - one life kind of dovetailed into the other and the opportunity that to see the world, and to be able to be a storyteller was just something that fit. You know, how do any of us really go about things? What are the decisions that any of us make that lead us on the road that we're going to be on for the rest of our lives? You know, is it fate or is it an accident?
AM: Mmm.
WG: What is it? That I don't know. But I'm so grateful for my life And grateful for the opportunities that I've had to tell the stories that I have!
AM: Absolutely!

WG: Including Walmart Black Friday Deals!
AM: Exactly! Without a doubt!
Why did you want to be connected in to this amazing project and tell us more about it.
WG: Well, first and foremost, Walmart is a part of American culture. It’s not the whole culture, but it's certainly part of American culture. It is a corporation that has been in all of our lives for such a very long time! And where I come from on Fairburn Road, a lot of my friends as we got older, we started to work there and I had the good fortune - I'll tell you a little bit about my history with this company.
AM: Please.
WG: I was a poor kid from the South and I made really good grades and I had the opportunity to go to school. But we didn't have a lot of money and we had to get the pay the rent. I got a small Scholastic Scholarship, you know. But in addition to that, there was a gap of funding that we just couldn't make that square around that square if you will and my mom, you know through our friends or whatever, heard that Walmart, had a grant.
AM: Oh wow.
WG: It was a sizeable amount of money and when I went you know in 1988 or 1989. I’m dating myself, don’t tell anybody!
AM: Ha! That's okay!
WG: My mom encouraged me to write this essay, you know, to the Walmart. That's how it works and that’s what I did - and I won!
AM: Wow.
WG: The money that I, I desperately needed, you know, my first year in college and in addition to that incredible opportunity, this company gave me - they also printed an 8x10 picture of me. I don't know what it was. I think it was a headshot. It was my first headshot, I think that's what it was. They put it up in their store, you know, for the better part of 6 months. People would call me because you know we didn’t have cell phones then, but they would leave these stupid messages on my answering machine, “saw your picture in Walmart, Walton. Are you part of the Walton family?"
So anyway, that was that's kind of my history with this company. This opportunity kind of came along and they sent this script and I thought, “wow, what a what an interesting way. Two sell things, right?” You know, it's a hybrid between entertainment and doing what we're gonna do anyway, which is to find things for our loved ones at the holidays. Black Friday deals have been around for a long time. They played an important role in my family's ability to buy things for Christmas and it does for a lot of people in this country and all over the world and I thought, what a cool thing to be a part of. I'm so happy that I did it. There's all these wonderful actors that I work with like Ian Somerhalder. There are others like Lisa Rinna, Taye Diggs who I've known for a while, Anthony Ramos and it’s great folks and it's 10 stories. These stories are vignettes if you will. There’s a supernatural genre, action genre, mine is a Western genre!
AM: Shocker!
WG: But you know what? I've done action!
AM: Of course!
WG: I have done a lot of genres in my time, but this is one that they saw me in and invited me to kind of come along this journey. We had such a great time filming it. You know, it was just so much fun and they’re such a great company to work for and work with. So, when I think people will watch them and they'll see the things that they want to buy and some things featured in a way that makes them laugh. It brings a smile to their face and so it’s a great way to go about it!
AM: Well, do you know when your episode will drop, do they all drop at one time? Like what's kind of the flow?
WG: Well you know, there are ten. I’m not exactly sure when they all drop. I know mine will drop towards the end of November which is, which is kind of very, very exciting because it's getting close to Dec. I think more will be revealed as it goes on. The first one drops on Nov. 11th-17th. I think that’s the first block and they'll kind of rolled out from there.
AM: Wow it’ll be great to see them!
What do you love about the holiday season?
WG: Oh God. You know, I just did this article, I won't say for the publication, but it’s about the holiday season. It's really kind of a Thanksgiving more than a Christmas article. I just love the opportunity to commune with family and friends. You know, we all have our rituals right? We all have the things that things that we do but the thing that I do that I've been given the opportunity to do is I don't really watch a lot of sports. I’m not that guy even though I played a bunch of sports growing up.
I make a fire and I and I sit around that fire with my family and with my friends and I have a glass of wine and I listen to music. And I just commune. What better thing is there than that and to tell people that mean something to you how much you love them?
AM: That's really nice and very sweet!
You're always working on so many projects. I can't wait till White Lotus comes out and I know that you have a bunch of other stuff as well. Is there anything that you would like to share with us, that you're working on that we can keep an eye out for?
WG: Well, you know, I think you said it, you know, I got a bunch of things that are coming out. I have a few movies that are coming out. My wife has a movie that she wrote and directed called The Uninvited, which is dropping pretty soon.
Then there is The White Lotus and we just finished the new season of the Righteous Gemstones!
AM: So excited for that!
WG: So good. It's so good.
AM: Everytime I watch that show, I grew up in the Midwest with an Evangelical and Pentecostal background and there's just so many things that happen on that show and my boyfriend will ask, “Is that real?” and I'm like, “yes!”
WG: Oh yeah! That’s real and that one is real too!
We're going back to Fallout here pretty soon. And then, kind of beyond that, reading and waiting and seeing what the future brings live everybody else! But right now, Walmart!

How is it the finale of The Golden Bachelorette? We see some of The Golden Bachelor contestants in the audience and Grant, who will start his journey as The Bachelor is in the audience! Jesse Palmer is definitely bringing the energy as he’s with the live audience.
We know that Joan Vassos was sad when Pascal left. She shares how even though she has been vulnerable, her walls have come back up because she is so hurt by what happened - how could he not love her? What will this mean for the remaining men Guy and Chock? Nancy is still on the boat and she comes over to give love to Joan. She also gives her the words she needs to hear to continue on and lets her know that regardless of what happens, the remaining men are there for her and have shown her that - especially Chock when he came back after his mother died! She is the hype woman that we all need when things go left!
She finally gets to see her family and they have a moment and give their blessing to what she has been doing in this process. Chock gets to meet them first! The family thinks he’s a great fit and they also get to chat and hang out on their own. Chock tells her that he loves her and is a bit sad she doesn’t say it back although he understands as there is still another man there.
While Guy gets ready for his date, Joan comes to the realization that after hearing Chock say that he is in love with her, she has fallen for him. She makes her way to Guy as she knows that she can’t go on a date with him as her heart is elsewhere. She sits down to chat with him. She lets him know that instead of putting him through meeting her family and going through the motion, she wanted to tell him now. You can see how Guy is really sad and crying hearing this news.
Back in the studio, Guy is on the couch.Guy and Jesse chat about what it was like to watch it back. Then Joan chats with Guy and you can see how much that she cares for him. She hopes that can double date with one another.
With only Chock left, we see Joan get ready to meet him. He’s still nervous that she hasn’t said that she loves him; however, they are on the beach and he professes his love to her and tells her that he wants her in his life! She talks about their Disneyland date let her know that she wanted him in her life. She knew that when he left because of the death of his mother, that she really liked him and she felt safe. She was excited that he came back adn she saw him differently and she finally says that she loves him. He asks her to marry him, she says yes, and she gives him the final rose! They call Joan’s mom and tell her the good news. We see them float away and it looks like a great match.
Back on the couch, they share more about their love story and what they did after the show. Chock talks about spending time with her, but not being able to tell anyone about it. Jesse gives them a trip to Disneyland that they can enjoy with their families as that was something that they had mentioned when they were on their first date. Jesse also reminds us that The Bachelor will start on Jan 23rd and we have a preview of the upcoming season!
Each night during this season, we will tweet about The Golden Bachelorette and you can chat along with us (@AthleisureMag + with our Co-Founder/Creative + Style Director, Kimmie Smith @ShesKimmie) to see what’s taking place!
Each week we will let you know who our faves were from the last episode and if we’ve changed up since then as it pertains to who we think should go to Hometowns.
We also suggest a podcast that we’ve become obsessed with over the past few seasons, Wondery’s Bachelor Happy Hour to get their feedback!

7 ESSENTIAL ACCESSORIES FOR A RELAXED AND MODERN LIFESTYLE
Our busy modern lifestyles can sometimes be overwhelming. It’s important to take some time out and nurture our physical, mental, and emotional wellness with some relaxation time. But is it possible to do this with modern convenience? It sure is!
Here are 7 essential accessories for a relaxed and modern lifestyle.
Vape Pen
A refillable vape pen is a battery-powered personal vaporizer. Vape pens come in various sleek and stylish designs and colors, and can be either refillable or disposable. A vape pen can be used with nicotine or non-nicotine products, and many exciting flavors are available.
A vape pen is perfect for unwinding after a long day. It offers an alternative to combustible tobacco products. And it’s also ideal for people transitioning from cigarette smoking, providing a soothing sensation to reduce the stress that quitting cold turkey causes.
However you choose to use your vape pen, is up to you. Due to its small and portable size and design, you can take a refillable vape pen wherever you go. To find the perfect vape pen for your personality and sense of style: go to deal.
Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones
Whether you’re seeking peace in a busy world, or trying to enhance your focus while working from home, noise-canceling headphones are the solution. These do more than allow you to listen to your favorite tunes on the go. They block out extraneous ambient noise for improved sound without distractions.
Noise-canceling audio products are available for in-ear or over-ear use. The over-ear ones, with their retro styling and soft earpads, are very comfortable to wear and are usually adjustable.
Aromatherapy Diffuser
One of the easiest ways to create the perfect relaxation space is with an aromatherapy diffuser. Aromatherapy vapors don’t only help you to relax. They improve the air quality, freshen any room, and can even help you to beat the cold and flu season.
The simplest way to bring the power of aromatherapy into your home is with a diffuser. There are different types of diffusers, but the most versatile option is one that you can plug in and add water and essential oils to. Some models are very attractive and also feature colorful lights.
A vaporizer disperses aromatherapy vapors into the surrounding air. It instantly freshens the space and adds a pleasant scent. Aromatherapy oils can be energizing and invigorating, or calming and restful. Choose the one that best matches the mood you’re after.
Wireless Charging Station
Our modern devices make our lives more convenient, and often more enjoyable. But the mess of charging cables that go with them is no fun at all. Indeed, there’s nothing worse when you; 're trying to relax, than staring into a heap of charging wires.
But you don’t have to endure the stress or the mess, anymore. Just get yourself a wireless charging station, and you’ll soon restore your zen in the home. A wireless charging station will let you organize the clutter, charging multiple devices at once, without extra cords.
It’s the perfect modernism meets minimalism solution.
Adjustable Standing Desk
If you’re an avid online gamer, you’ll know how important your gaming desk setup is for your comfort. Hours of gaming can play havoc with your posture, and even put stress on your joints and back.
An ergonomic design is key, with adjustable features that allow you to set your chair, table, and monitor at just the right height and angle. But one of the best investments you can make for a relaxed and modern lifestyle is an adjustable standing desk.
Although it takes some getting used to, you’ll soon find that a standing desk allows you to be more alert and productive. An adjustable standing desk allows you to alternate between standing and sitting. It improves your posture, but still offers comfort, and is also ideal for people who work from home.
Bong
CBD oil has been shown to reduce the effects of anxiety and stress. It can produce a relaxing sensation. And help those with insomnia get better quality sleep. But if you’re new to the world of CBD products, you may be unsure how to use it.
A bong is a type of water pipe. Although it can be used to smoke cannabis, it is also possible to use it for CBD oil. A bong offers a relaxation ritual and an effective way to administer CBD oil at home. Place the oil inside the bong with water, heat it, and inhale the vapor produced.
Bongs are available in cannabis dispensaries, but you can also purchase one discreetly online, on sites where vape pens are sold.
Smart Thermostat
If you want to enhance your relaxation in a modern lifestyle, make the smart decision, and get some Smart devices. And one of the most popular is the Smart thermostat, a Wi-Fi-enabled device that automatically adjusts the heating and cooling in your home.
A Smart thermostat makes it easy to beat the heat and keep your cool, or stay snug and warm against the winter chill. You can control it from your mobile devices, a Smart speaker, or any internet-connected system. And all without having to get up from your cozy chair.

Last week’s The Golden Bachelorette was a tough one! 3 dates with the remaining guys after their Hometowns and Joan Vassos has to really get the answers and insight that she was looking for! Who knew that Pascale would leave as he was always our favorite! Only Guy and Chock are left and we’ll have to waut until next week to see them. As we wait for the part 2 of this finale, we head into the The Men Tell All! This lets us catch up with our favorites and to get more info on what went down during the season.
We join Jesse Palmer who will make sure that we get all of our questions ready and surely, he will tease the upcoming episode as well. Seeing the men back definitely felt like seeing old friends. Jesse lets us know that they have also their kids there as we all loved seeing the videos that were made to share their love for their dads. Jesse talks about their experience, kickball, Chippendales, and so much more! We also got to hear about grill gate and it’s such a nice walk down memory lane. We also hear that Michael was battling cancer when he was on the show. He is fine now, but so interesting to hear some of the backstory that we didn’t know about these men.
The first person to join the hot seat is Jonathan who was eliminated after Joan went to his Hometown. We get to see his experience on the show and we see how emotional he was when he was sent home. He shares that the experience was incredible and she made him feel seen. We also saw the bromance between Mark and Jonathan! Who knew that they were such buddies - Mark leaving the post-it-notes for Jonathan is so sweet!
Mark joins the hot seat as we know him from Joey’s (who is in the audience and taking a break from Dancing with the Stars) season on The Bachelor and we all knew he would be a great contestant for The Golden Bachelorette! We watch how his story unfolds on the show and without a doubt, he was great to be part of this group of men!
The moment we have been waiting for - Charles L is in the hot seat! Who doesn’t love this man? Seeing his journey was such a sweet moment. He even says that he didn’t know who Jesse was at the time and not to take an offense to it! His daughter says that after being on the show, they went to a wedding in London and he had a new confidence and he hit the dance floor! He said he is ready to date again and that his body is lighter and he hopes that he will meet the lucky one. An audience member said that he should be the next The Golden Bachelor and if not, she has a mom who is single.
We see that Pascal gave the men a self-care day with a bit of meditation. They have face masks and even did a meditation that he learned in India. The men enjoyed it.Of course we learn that he didn’t know anything about meditation!
We get to see Kim’s time on the show - including the Mansion Men song. The Gay Men’s Chorus of LA sing Kim’s song the treatment that it deserves and it was a pretty cool way to see the show! You can see how moved Kim is to see his song come to life and he shakes each member of the chorus’ hand.
Pascal comes to the hot seat as we watch how his time on the show progressed until his self-proclaimed exit. We definitely thought that they would end up together, but unfortunately, that was not in the cards. Pascal lets Jesse know that seeing his exit from the show was emotional and that it was so hard for him to say goodbye to her. He did not intend to hurt her, he just knows that he couldn’t give her what she wanted. He said that being with the men, he learned a lot for them about being vulnerable. His son also acknowledges that when he saw him being vulnerable, it helped him see that that is something that he can be without feeling that it makes him less than.
Joan joins the men and looks fabulous! Jesse acknowledges that we saw her last week and we know that she has been going through it, but she looks great sitting on the couch. He talks about the first night and what her experience has been. Gary sends love to Joan’s mother as he wrote a prayer for her when she wasn’t feeling well. Charles says he misses her and that being with her was a turning point. She lets him know that he looks so handsome and that he has such a pure heart. She promises to exchange phone numbers with him. Jonathan also sends love to her and lets her know that has met someone and that he is happy. Pascal and Joan exchange words and you can see the love that is between them. She lets them know that she misses them and she wants to stay friends and in connection with them.
It’s been one of our favorite The Men Tell All episodes! We get to see some amazing bloopers and a peek into the finale episode!

Each night during this season, we will tweet about The Golden Bachelorette and you can chat along with us (@AthleisureMag + with our Co-Founder/Creative + Style Director, Kimmie Smith @ShesKimmie) to see what’s taking place!
Each week we will let you know who our faves were from the last episode and if we’ve changed up since then as it pertains to who we think should go to Hometowns.
We also suggest a podcast that we’ve become obsessed with over the past few seasons, Wondery’s Bachelor Happy Hour to get their feedback!
