Summary
Jordan chats with two inspirational powerhouses who inspire her more than they could ever know: Lauren Paul and Molly Mae Thompson, the Founders of Kind Campaign. Jordan has been following their work with the Kind Campaign since long before she had met either of them, and having the opportunity to interview them about their work, friendship, motherhood, and lives was an incredible experience that she is so excited to share with the listeners of the show.
Kind Campaign is an anti-bullying non-profit that has been going into schools and spreading kindness for over a decade. Their assemblies and documentary, Finding Kind, bring awareness and healing to the negative and lasting effects of girl-against-girl bullying, which is unfortunately something that pretty much every girl experiences at some point in their life. It is beautiful and selfless work, something that has changed girls’ lives all over the globe for a full decade now.
These Kind Girls share some awesome stories in this episode, including their own histories with bullying in middle school and high school, how they met each other, some of the most powerful acts of forgiveness and love they’ve seen on tour, and what it’s like to now have children of their own!

| 0:00.0 | Hello, hello, and welcome back to the Bounce Bond podcast, Soul on Fire. |
| 0:19.5 | I've been doing this new thing lately where I've been introducing myself in the intro of every episode, |
| 0:26.2 | just because I know that there are new listeners to the show every time we release a new episode, |
| 0:31.9 | which is every Wednesday at I want to say 6am Eastern time, which is the middle of the night, |
| 0:38.5 | over here on the West Coast. So nice and consistent, this podcast is the most consistent thing I've ever created |
| 0:46.3 | in my career and in my life, and I feel really good about that because my podcast is probably my |
| 0:54.2 | favorite thing that I do. So hi everyone, my name is Jordan, I am the blogger behind the balanced |
| 1:02.2 | blonde where we talk all about wellness, yoga, healthy lifestyle hacks, natural healing, and all |
| 1:10.4 | sorts of holistic means for healing our bodies and being as healthy as we can possibly be. I also am |
| 1:18.3 | an author of Breaking Vegan, my eating disorder memoir that is all about my journey through orthorexia |
| 1:26.2 | and finding balance again with food. I'm the host of this podcast, of course, where I talk to people |
| 1:33.8 | who have set their souls on fire from every different lifestyle, career, walk of life. We have |
| 1:40.9 | shamans and nutritionists and functional medicine doctors and fashion bloggers and psychic mediums |
| 1:49.4 | and everything in between. It excites me to no end to see what happens on this podcast every week |
| 1:58.0 | and beyond the blog and the podcast and my book. I also teach yoga and host retreats and do a lot |
| 2:05.4 | of speaking when it comes to wellness and yoga and most recently holistic healing from chronic |
| 2:12.6 | Lyme disease. So that is what I'm working on for my next book and I'm very excited to share that. |
| 2:19.4 | So you can always expect from the balanced blonde wellness yoga lifestyle and quite a bit about my |
| 2:27.2 | life because I think the most interesting blogs really talk about life and share behind the scenes |
| 2:34.7 | with you because that's what it's all about. So that is me. And if you are a long time listener to |
| 2:40.5 | this show, then welcome back and thank you for being here. We have our Soul On Fire podcast |
| 2:46.6 | tribe on Facebook where you can meet friends from all over the world and continue this conversation |
