Episode 17: Kaylan Grant

I feel so lucky Kaylan and I crossed paths in this chapter of life. She is one of my favorite people, and one of the many reasons I adore her is her ability to bring laughter and honesty to any situation — especially motherhood. Kaylan is a mama to two adorable kiddos who are currently 8 and 5. In today’s episode we dive into natural birth, gestational diabetes, a crazy postpartum health scare, unfiltered advice for working mamas, watching your kiddos grow into their own people, and so much more! Hope you enjoy as much as I do.

Episode 16: Jessie Gardner

Jessie is one of the most special humans I’ve ever met. She’s full of love and light and wisdom and perspective and, well, she is just a treasure. She's also a girl mama 3x over. We dive into so many soulful topics in this episode: how to listen to your own inner knowing as a mom, teaching your children about their own intuition, letting them unfold into the little beings that they are, being reminded about the simple wonders of life from your kiddos. Plus, we dive into Jessie's birth experiences, her lifestyle of living close to the earth, and letting Mother Nature be her greatest teacher. You're in for a real treat with this one!

Episode 15: Natalie Thomas

This conversation with Natalie made me feel so seen. Sometimes when it comes to new mom life you feel so alone. Like you’re the only one obsessed with sleep or you’re the only one who finds yourself feeling angry in the rocking chair in a dark nursery or you’re the only one who has suddenly become so controlling. The truth is, you’re never alone and I hope that’s what this episode reminds you of. We dive into a range of topics: aunt life to mom life, Nat’s birth experience, breastfeeding journey (of course!), the agony of baby sleep, working full time, and so much more. Hope you enjoy this gem of a human as much as I do.

Episode 14: Molly Dewey

Molly is a true gem. We are connected through working in New York City together in the summer of 2013. While we technically only overlapped for a few short months, she quickly became my soul [little] sister and dear friend. Molly is a mama of two littles — currently ages 1.5 and 2 months. She is the co-founder of Mettacool — a coaching and professional development company for women. Molly has so much wisdom to share and in this episode we have a true heart-to-heart catch up diving into baby names, her love story, her journey to starting Mettacool, entrepreneurship, working moms, postpartum anxiety, having a natural vs. medicated birth, and so much more. It’s juicy! Hope you enjoy.
