On this episode of Everything's Messy Podcast I’m hanging out with the fabulous Holly McDonald — SoCal realtor, TV host, East Coast transplant, and full-blown messy mom in the best way. 🌴🏡 We dive into how she packed two suitcases, chased a college internship to California, accidentally fell in love with both the lifestyle and real estate, and never looked back.

But of course… we don’t stop at the highlight reel. We get real about the messy middle of motherhood, mom guilt, juggling careers and kids, redefining “balance,” and why perfection is wildly overrated. We talk early mornings, meditation breakthroughs, ditching TV, being your own biggest cheerleader, and what it actually looks like to protect your marriage when life feels like survival mode. 💛

Oh — and Holly also drops some hopeful insight on what the 2026 housing market might look like (hello opportunity 👀), plus how she blends media, community impact, and real estate through her work with American Dream Network.

If you’re a working mom, a dream chaser, a recovering perfectionist, or just someone navigating the beautiful chaos of real life… this conversation will feel like a warm coffee date with truth, laughs, and a whole lot of “same.” ☕✨

Holly also shares about a relationship growth program she and her husband are currently participating in called Relationship Theory, which she mentioned is connected to something known as The 80% Club. The program focuses on intentional communication, deeper connection, and strengthening relationships during busy life seasons.

Bonus: there may or may not be a mysterious “flush the toilet” mic drop at the end. 🚽😂 You’ll have to listen to find out.

🎧 Hit play and let’s get messy.
