Courage On The Rocks

Episode 31 – One Chapter Ends, Another Begins

In our final episode, we open up about the heartfelt decision to bring this podcast to a close. As we step into a new era of our lives, we feel called to live more authentically and truthfully than ever before. With a new year approaching, both of our families are ready to embrace fresh beginnings, growth, and the freedom that comes with moving forward. Over the course of this podcast, we’ve laughed through silly stories, shared vulnerable truths, and learned more about ourselves—and each other—than we ever expected. Hosting this show has been a gift and having you with us on this journey has meant everything. Thank you for listening, supporting, and growing with us. This may be the end of a chapter, but it’s also the beginning of something new.

Episode 30 - Countdown to Baby Girl: The Messy, Magical Side of Maternity

The countdown is officially on! In this episode, we dive into the wild and wonderful world of maternity life — from the body changes no one warns you about (hello, hair loss and wardrobe struggles) to the emotional rollercoaster that comes with preparing to meet your baby girl. Our hosts open up about the physical, emotional, and mental toll of those final days before delivery, and how both partners navigate the highs, lows, and everything in between. Plus, we share stories from a beautiful baby shower, surrounded by family, friends, laughter, and a few too many cupcakes. It’s honest, funny, and full of heart — a reminder that even when life gets messy, there’s a lot of magic in the chaos.

Episode 29 - Super Mode

This week, one of our hosts takes on the Spartan Race Super — the second level of endurance insanity — and somehow makes it out (mostly) in one piece. We’re talking about what it means to push past your limits and keep going when everything hurts — physically and emotionally. But it’s more than just a race story. The Spartan Super becomes a metaphor for life itself — learning to keep moving forward when things get tough, to laugh through the struggle, and to trust your team (even when they make you crawl through mud). Expect a mix of funny fails, personal growth, and the kind of perspective that might just inspire you to tackle your own “Super Mode” — whatever that looks like in your life.

Episode 28 - Sage, Scents & Secrets: Exploring Healing, Cleansing, and a Medium’s Message

In this episode, one of our hosts shares a wild and eye-opening experience that takes us deep into the world of sage, scents, candles, and the art of cleansing our homes. We explore how holistic practices can help us heal, reconnect with ourselves, and find balance after grief. From the power of rituals to an unforgettable session with a medium, this conversation is all about being open to new ways of tapping into our inner strength. Join us as we laugh, reflect, and lean into the mystery of what it means to heal from the inside out.

Episode 27 - What's in a name?

In this episode, we’re diving into the world of baby names—the timeless classics, the pop culture-inspired picks, the unique and creative ones, and the downright silly. We share some of our personal favorites, as well as a few names we’d never dream of giving our own kids. From meaningful traditions to names that sound like they came straight out of a Netflix binge, we explore the stories, trends, and quirks behind the names we choose. Join us for a fun, lighthearted conversation about the power—and sometimes the comedy—of naming a new little human.
