16. Life Lately, Donni Pants & Instagram Spirals

After an unexpected little hiatus, Nan and Maddie are back, catching up on everything from what we are buying to general life updates. We also dive into the challenging comparison trap of Instagram…how we go about being small ‘content creators,’ and how to stand out without falling into negative Instagram spirals.  Episode links HERE.  [https://shopmy.us/shop/collections/2470490] For more: Follow ⁠@gemsandfriendspodcast [https://www.instagram.com/gemsandfriendspodcast/] ⁠on Instagram!

15. Gems & Sam Hirschmann

We sat down and chatted with the energetic, wonderful, and fun Sam Hirschmann Boskey. [https://www.instagram.com/sam.moooves/]  Sam is endlessly inspiring and just full of light and joy! She is a mother, an author, an actress, a breathwork teacher, and so much more. We talk about everything from being a college athlete, to Sam’s early career in finance, to her switch to acting school and breathwork, and then we also dive into motherhood. We have a slight unexpected interruption to talk about Taylor and Travis (!) and then (as always) we conclude the episode by chatting about shopping and some of Sam’s favorite things.  Follow Sam on instagram at @ SamMooves [https://www.instagram.com/sam.moooves/] or on her substack Eat the Croissant.  [https://eatthecroissant.substack.com/] Episode links HERE.  [https://shopmy.us/shop/collections/2162095] For more: Follow ⁠@gemsandfriendspodcast [https://www.instagram.com/gemsandfriendspodcast/] ⁠on Instagram!
