Episode 35: The Things We Collect When We Didn’t Mean To

Someday Is Here | Season 2: Still Unfinished | Episode 3 | The Season I Almost Lost My Marriage and What Staying Actually Took

I have never talked about this publicly before. During one of the hardest seasons of my life I had a newborn, a two year old, and a seven year old. I was nursing and failing at it. I was drowning in the mental load. My husband was finishing his master's degree and was there but not really there. And I was struggling with postpartum depression without even having a name for it yet. So I left. In this episode I talk about what that season actually felt like from the inside. The Facebook photo that broke me. The guilt I carried. The relief I didn't expect. And the husband who never stopped showing up even when I walked out the door. This is a story about postpartum depression, about marriage, about what it looks like to lose yourself completely and find your way back. And it is for anyone who has ever felt so lost they didn't know how to stay. You were never the only one.

Someday Is Here | Season 2: Still Unfinished | Episode 2 | She Shaped Me: Grief, Grandmothers, and the Love That Doesn't Leave

She was a force of nature. A mother of eight, a seamstress, a woman who didn't know how to sit still and the person who knew me most completely in this world. Her name was Alice. She was my grandmother, and I miss her every single day. In this episode I'm getting personal. I'm talking about who my grandmother was, what our relationship looked like day to day, and what it feels like to keep living in a world without her. I talk about grief, the kind that isn't linear, the kind that shows up when you least expect it, and the kind that reminds you that love doesn't actually go anywhere. If you've ever lost someone who made you feel completely known, this one is for you. Grief, loss, grandmother, mental health, love, family, healing, the messy middle, still unfinished, someday is here

Season 2, Episode 1: Still Unfinished | Where I've Been & What's Next

Welcome to Season 2 of Someday Is Here. It's been a little while since we've talked, and today I'm sharing why. Over the past several months, life has been beautifully full. From finishing my book Just Unfinished, to opening my California therapy practice, to balancing family, work, and the everyday realities of chasing big dreams, I've learned that sometimes growth doesn't happen when life slows down, it happens right in the middle of the chaos. In this episode, I'm catching you up on what's been happening behind the scenes, what this season has taught me, and why I decided this felt like the right time to begin a new chapter of the podcast. We'll talk about: • Where I've been • The excitement and fear of building something new • Why it's okay to step back when life gets full • What "unfinished" has come to mean to me • What's ahead for Season 2 If you've ever felt like you're trying to juggle too much, wondering if you're doing enough, or learning to embrace the messy middle of life, I hope this conversation reminds you that you don't have to have everything figured out. Because maybe you're just unfinished... ...and unfinished is not the same as done.

Episode 36: Mother’s Day looks different this year

This Mother’s Day feels different. Living far from my mom for the first time, not having all of my kids under my roof, and sitting with the quiet that comes with that. A reflection on how motherhood changes over time, what it means to let go, and learning how to hold both grief and gratitude in the same space. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, in whatever way this day finds you.

Episode 35: The Things We Collect When We Didn’t Mean To

It started as a joke… that managing your health feels a little like Pokémon Go, except instead of collecting creatures, you’re collecting doctors. But underneath that is something real. In this episode, I talk about the emotional weight of living in a body that requires constant attention, and the parts no one really prepares you for.
