About Ironically Serious

Ironically Serious offers an unfiltered take on up-leveling life in business, relationships, motherhood, friendships, health/wellness, and self-care. After a dramatic life pivot, Taylor Hedden pulverized society's expectations and started a podcast to document it along the way. Throwing a cold glass of water into the face of hardship, Taylor put a modern twist on confidence and what it means to have earned it. In the spirit of resilience, we relish in personal empowerment and the hard shit that makes us who we are. We're here for the relevant, raw conversations that promote transformation while at your lowest and showing shame the door. Let your hair down and lean in—all are welcome here.

The Breastfeeding Episode I Wish I Had ft. Lindsay White

#84: What happens when you’re trying to feed your baby in public and the world tells you to cover up? Or worse... go sit in a bathroom stall? In today’s episode, I sit down with Lindsay White, the founder of The Little Milk Bar — a viral brand turned advocacy movement that’s helping moms ditch the shame and feed their babies wherever and however they need. We get into what it’s really like to breastfeed in a world that still censors boobs, the three wildly different feeding journeys Lindsay had with her kids, and how grief completely redefined her approach to motherhood and business. She opens up about the emotional toll of parenting, the ways partners can actually show up (it’s not what you think), and why we need to stop asking women to be quiet and pretty while doing the most emotionally complex job on earth. This one’s tender, powerful, and real AF.

episode Mom Guilt, Mat Time, and Mid-Dirty Martinis artwork

Mom Guilt, Mat Time, and Mid-Dirty Martinis

#83: This one’s got range, y’all. 😅 In this solo episode, I’m breaking down everything from my new dirty martini obsession (move over, Manhattans) to the raw spiral I had when my son broke his arm when I wasn’t there. We’re talking full-blown panic attack on the freeway, mom guilt that sucker-punched me, and how I navigated it all while driving to speak at a business conference. I also share what eight months of jiu-jitsu have taught me (besides how to choke someone out in public for lying about their belt color). From ego checks and cauliflower ear to rediscovering resilience I didn’t know I had... this episode is a deep dive into being a beginner, building confidence, and owning your identity outside of motherhood. This one’s funny, unfiltered, and full of life lessons you didn’t know you needed. CONNECT WITH THE TAYLOR: Join 1k others in my weekly unhinged newsletter where I get honest about entrepreneurship.

episode Marriage, Money, and the Messy Middle ft. Brandee Gaar artwork

Marriage, Money, and the Messy Middle ft. Brandee Gaar

#82: Brandee Gaar breaks down how she built a leading Orlando planning firm, survived the COVID zero-events era, and accidentally launched Wedding Pro CEO via daily 10-minute lives and a Clubhouse “morning show.” We talk about the years that looked “successful” but paid nothing, the summers that almost sunk them, her husband quitting (twice going back to serve to keep lights on), and why their standing Friday money/ops meeting is non-negotiable. We also hit mom guilt, kids who truly don’t remember the games you sobbed over missing, homeschooling for ambition, and the underrated power of a partner who says, “I’m not going anywhere.” Hit play if: you’re a wedding pro, a parent, or a builder stuck in the middle.

episode The Sex Talk You Should’ve Gotten in Church, But Didn’t ft. Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers artwork

The Sex Talk You Should’ve Gotten in Church, But Didn’t ft. Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers

#81: Sex. Shame. Spirituality. We’re going there today. In this conversation with sex therapist and researcher Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers, we unpack the toxic effects of purity culture and how the shame we were taught about sex, bodies, and desire continues to shape us as adults, parents, and partners. Tina doesn’t hold back. She breaks down how abstinence-only education fueled a generation of disconnection, the difference between modesty and moral panic, and why so many of us feel broken when it comes to intimacy. We also talk about her books Sex, God & the Conservative Church [https://www.amazon.com/Sex-God-Conservative-Church-Intimacy/dp/B08Z785LHF] and Shameless Parenting [https://www.amazon.com/Shameless-Parenting-Everything-Shame-free-Confident/dp/B0BZF5865H]—including the real reasons parents struggle to talk to their kids about sex, and how we can raise emotionally aware, sexually healthy humans (even if we’re still healing ourselves). This one cracks open the conversations most people avoid, but we need to be having anyway. Play it. Sit with it. And maybe finally let go of some of the shame you’ve been carrying. CONNECT WITH DR. TINA: www.tinaschermersellers.com [https://www.tinaschermersellers.com/] On Instagram @drtinashameless [https://www.instagram.com/drtinashameless/?hl=en] Buy the books: Shameless Parenting [https://www.amazon.com/Shameless-Parenting-Everything-Shame-free-Confident/dp/B0BZF5865H] and Sex, God, and the Conservative Church: Erasing Shame from Sexual Intimacy [https://www.amazon.com/Sex-God-Conservative-Church-Intimacy/dp/B08Z785LHF] LET'S STAY CONNECTED: Is video more your thing?

episode How to Start Running (Without Being a Little Bitch) ft. Josh Hedden artwork

How to Start Running (Without Being a Little Bitch) ft. Josh Hedden

#80: In this episode, I'm joined (once again) by my husband Josh, who just came off a 100-mile race attempt at Leadville 3 weeks ago that didn’t go exactly as planned.  We’re breaking down what life has been like since the race, how he's processing the disappointment of a DNF (Did Not Finish), and what he's learned as both an athlete and a husband. He also breaks down beginner tips for anyone who wants to start running but feels intimidated by the “go hard or go home” culture + how to get started if you’ve never run a day in your life. (And yes, you can walk. You’re not a little bitch.) CONNECT WITH JOSH: On Instagram @josh__hedden [https://www.instagram.com/josh__hedden] LET'S STAY CONNECTED: Is video more your thing?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
