Description

This week’s episode is brought to you by: congestion, exhaustion, and the desperate need for a nap. I’m clawing my way back from a head cold that didn’t knock me out entirely—but definitely made everything feel harder. And as a mom? Sick days don’t come with PTO. I talk about the emotional whiplash of trying to rest while the to-do list multiplies, the chaos that waits for you when you're “better,” and the unique hell of trying to get back in shape when your hormones and head colds are both working against you. Also—can we talk about the man-cold? Because the minute I say I’m sick, my husband’s symptoms magically appear…and they’re always worse. 🙄 If you’ve ever tried to sneak a face mask in between sneezes and snack duty, this one’s for you.

Episode 7: Hey Girl... MLM trama

Making friends as an adult is already awkward enough — but add in the residual trauma of growing up in the golden age of MLM culture? Yikes. In this episode, I’m talking about the weird pressure millennial moms feel when it comes to making friends, starting a business, or selling anything without accidentally triggering someone’s MLM PTSD. We’ll laugh (probably at my terrible Lipsense phase), we’ll cringe (shoutout to that Arbonne lady who called me for 5 years), and we’ll talk about how to show up for your friends doing cool things… without the weird “hey girl” vibes. If you’ve ever gotten trapped at a coffee date sales pitch or still flinch when you get a DM from someone you went to high school with… this one’s for you.
