Hot Girl Summer is right around the corner! The transition into the summer months can be a great time to begin new habits and lifestyle changes, especially surrounding your personal health.

Our social media platforms are flooded with fear-based marketing, unrealistic body standards, and unhealthy habits related to personal health . Today, we sit down with Katy Saltsman to talk all about these myths and how we can create positive health cultures for ourselves and those around us.

We can be the ones to create supportive communities that celebrate women beyond their physical appearance and offers practical tips for tracking health indicators that go beyond the scale.

Whether it's in your chapter or your circle of friends at home this summer, learn how you can be the one to create this positive healthy community for those around you.

Your sisterhood is meant to be a lifelong commitment, but what does it look like to actually be active in our sorority after graduation?

The alumni experience gives women the opportunity to not just meet sisters from other universities, but build new meaningful relationships with sisters they never knew in college to give back to the collegiate experience and support philanthropic efforts. Today, Erin Donegan gives us an inside look into the alumni experience and how valuable it's been to her sorority journey. Erin's sorority experience didn't stop after graduation; her alumni chapter has brought her sincere friendships and valuable experiences she's excited to share, along with her advice for recent college graduates.

If you're graduating wondering how your sorority experience could possible continue or in the middle of your journey looking for inspiration for the future, this episode is for you.

Are you tired yet? After the past three weeks of awards ceremonies, Greek Week events, scholarship banquets, and senior send offs, do you feel like your celebrating the community or competing for your place in it?

Let's exchange our goals to be the best in our community (and consequently communicating to our members that our worth has to be earned) for a lived reality of a chapter who enjoys the company of its members and values the experiences enough to hope to share it with new sisters this fall.

During Sexual Assault Awareness Month, you may feel overwhelmed with information, statistics, and more questions than answers in how to protect or support your sisters. We invited Megan Hatfield, Alpha Chi Omega's Assistant Director of Education and Leadership Initiatives, to share her insight into how chapters and their members can take the resources available to them to be the kind of sisters the potential survivors in your sisterhood need. Tune in to hear Megan's fresh perspective unpacking the intersection that she often works with between domestic violence and sexual violence, the value of peer facilitation for some of these conversations, and how to communicate that you believe your sisters when you can't find the right words.

Did you attend a fraternity & sorority life leadership conference this year? As you go into the final stretch of your spring semester, let's reevaluate how you've maintained that conference momentum. What progress have you made toward the goals you set? How have you used that inspiration to ignite meaningful change in your chapter or community? 2025 AFLV Central Intern, Madi Breedlove, and Outgoing SGLA Student Board President, Kori Alexander, join Cassie on the podcast to share some challenges they experienced carrying out their leadership vision inspired by conference conversations with peers and programming. You don't want to miss their encouragement for how you can maximize your council's investment and step out boldly to sustain relationships you built with peers or speakers!

We've all heard "Greek Life is for everyone" but is that being lived out daily? This week guest Kailey Couch a freshman at Missouri State University in Sigma Sigma Sigma shares her take on the topic of inclusivity. Kailey is visually impaired and actively making strides in her community to ensure every student feels invited to the fraternity experience. Kailey gives insight into what recruitment looked like for her and her ideas for an inclusive environment for all wanting to participate. Kailey encourages listeners to "never be afraid to ask" and to educate chapters on topics such as diversity, disabilities, and accommodations from recruitment and beyond. Kailey is a wave maker on her campus and has a lot to share so tune in and share what you learn with your chapter!

On our 5 year anniversary of the Your Sorority Journey Podcast, Cassie reflects even further back than the start of her entrepreneurial journey, to the start of her sorority journey. While sorority recruitment can feel like such an isolated experience, she reveals common experience of women forming beliefs about themselves from any moment of rejection and the need to dismantle the shame we project on ourselves that we are the only one who feels this way.

If you resonate with this story or any of our work to cultivate confidence & community in the sorority experience, not just for the sake of sorority but for lifelong networks of support & connectedness, we have 3 ways for you to get involved!
