With Whit

Sometimes the best conversations are the ones you go back to again and again, and this week, we are revisiting a conversation with Dr. Becky Kennedy - clinical psychologist, mom of three, TIME Magazine's "Millennial Parenting Whisperer", and founder of the Good Inside platform. At the time, I had discovered her work on Instagram during the pandemic, and her way of rethinking parenting was both eye-opening and grounding. We spoke about so many timeless topics: setting boundaries with our anxiety, helping kids sleep on their own, how to argue in front of kids in a healthy way, and what to do when you catch yourself repeating patterns you don't want to pass down. Listening back now, several years later, I feel the power of this conversation in a whole new way. Sonny is at a completely different age and stage, and so many of the strategies Dr. Becky shared hit me differently this time around. It's a reminder that parenting wisdom grows with us - what resonates in one season of life takes on new meaning in the next. Whether you heard this episode years ago, or you're brand new to Dr. Becky's work, you'll walk away with simple, actionable tools to feel sturdier and more confident as a parent.  This episode is brought to you by HART Jewelry, Grüns, Tia, and CAKES Body.  * HART is a sister-led jewelry brand that’s known for creating soulful, personalized, long-lasting jewelry.

When was the last time you and your partner tried something new in the bedroom? What if the problem isn't a lack of love, but a lack of imagination? In this episode, I'm joined by Shan Boodram, Chief Intimacy Officer at Arya, to explore how couples can reignite that new-love energy, no matter how many years it's been. As both a mom of two and a certified intimacy educator, Shan knows the challenges couples face - the chaos of parenting, the exhaustion, and the way relationships often get pushed to the bottom of the list. That's where Arya comes in. Think of Arya as a personal concierge for your love life - taking away the shame and guesswork so you can focus on connection, playfulness, and intimacy. Shan is one of the internet's most trusted and sought-after intimacy experts, and we cover a lot - from breaking down the stigma around sexual wellness to exploring why novelty is scientifically proven to boost connection, this conversation was as insightful as it was refreshing.

This episode was SO fun. Vanessa Lavorato has been dubbed The Martha Stewart Of Weed and if you listen to this episode it is obvious why. She is an absolute cannabis expert, chocolatier, and author of the most fun cookbook to teach us all how to cook with cannabis in a modern, delicious, and responsible way. Vanessa shares her personal journey with cannabis, from an early curiosity to building a career around edibles that are as joyful and delicious as they are approachable. We talk about everything from how to find your perfect dose to her most memorable edible mishaps. She breaks down the difference between eating weed vs smoking weed vs drinking weed, her favorite beginner friendly low-dose recipes (think meatballs and cereal milk milkshakes), and what it really takes to have the best time with cannabis without going overboard. We get into the bigger picture of how the stigma is changing and of course, she answers some rapid fire questions about her Bong Appetit days, favorite snacks, and the edible mistakes she'll never make again.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Hart Hagerty, founder of HART Jewelry, to dive into her journey of creativity, travel, and building a brand that truly reflects who she is. We talk about growing up in creative households and how that shaped both of us as parents now. Hart shares her early adventures traveling throughout Asia, the spark that led her to launch HART Jewelry back in 2016, and how the brand has evolved into a customizable, high quality, and soul-boosting line that lets people create pieces unique to them. We get into the behind the scenes of jewelry - what "gold-plated" really means, whether "waterproof jewelry" exists, and what to look for if you want pieces that last. We also explore the joy of retail done differently, from the fun in-store experience of building your own pieces, to the bigger lesson of letting your business grow alongside your own evolving interests. This is a conversation about creativity, craftsmanship, and following what fascinates you - in life, in work, and in style.
