Starting a new partnership can be a sticky thing! Many people will say don’t go into business with family or friends and then there are some who flourish together no matter their friendship before starting a new endeavor. There are so many different stories we can all recall but at the end of the day it is about what works best for you. We frequently get asked how we make it work being friends and colleagues -- we aren't perfect but we must say we are pretty damn good at it. On today’s episode we are getting deep talking about the ins and outs of our partnership and how we manage to grow our working relationship in a fun and healthy way. But we don’t know it all, we would love to hear your experiences and what you have learned to make partnerships successful, whether it’s at work or in your personal life (hint these are very similar things)! Any who...stop reading and push play! 

Therapy comes in all shapes, colors and sizes - even for your wardrobe. Whether you’re super stylish or could care less about what you wear today’s guest, Stephanie the founder of Composed Co, has found there is emotions tied to your wardrobe decisions. This is why she started this brand and you can feel her passion ooze through the speakers as she speaks about what she does. 

Former fashion exec turned biz owner, Stephanie works with women to help shape their wardrobe to fit the season of their life. On our episode she shares why this can be an emotional transformation, some tips for how to spruce up your closet + some of her fave items and no no’s when it comes to fashion.

“People don’t really connect that our clothing makes us feel a certain way. Ultimately, I want everyone to have a wardrobe that makes them feel like their true self.” - Stephanie, Founder of Composed Co. 

Want to know what a wardrobe therapist is all about tune in to today’s episode and you can also check out her YouTube video that shares more about what it is like to work with her. 

To say we’re obsessed is an understatement - we’re so excited to share that Jessie Alexander, founder of 31 Bits, joined us for our podcast this week to discuss “being the girl who goes for it.” 

Back when mindful e-commerce wasn’t even a glimmer in the online shopper’s eye, Jessie and her co-founders turned a college project into a 10-year dream job that ‘til this day amazes us with their creativity, thoughtfulness and business savvy mindset.  

She’s sharing her journey from college grad to a successful entrepreneur. Tune in to hear what she learned, what she’d change and how living with your business partners CAN work if you’re up for the challenge. 

Are You Good at Being Alone? I mean… we wish we were. We kinda suck at it. You always want what you can’t have, right? 

As an entrepreneur you rarely get to shut it off when you’re doing your own 9-5 (read all day EVERY day). We’ve gotten used to that and taken the necessary steps to create space in our lives. BUT the most shocking thing of becoming a parent was the fact that YOU’RE NEVER ALONE! It added a whole other layer of lack of space, creating an even bigger need for those special moments that were just for us. 

THEN, even when you’re alone all you’re doing is thinking about what you need to do for work/home or how much you miss the loved ones you’re away from. We’re all about the kids being watched by people we trust and saying PEACE, but we still find ourselves not fully able to disconnect. 

So today’s podcast is about the “Art of Alone-time” and how we can strengthen that muscle. If you have this down share your knowledge bombs. We’re all ears! Hit us up on Insta.  

But seriously, it’s summer and we feel a bit off. Maybe it’s the pregnancy? While everyone is ramping up to live their best life and in full “GO” mode, we’re winding down as we prepare to expand our families (and bodies) to make room for this new life. 

Each season has its own energy, and this time we’re out of sync with Summer’s “get after it” vibe. So how are we dealing with that as we prepare to head out for maternity leave? Tune in to find out! 

It’s Podcast Wednesday!! This episode we are talking about all about staying in the moment. This topic is relevant for sooo many reasons but ultimately we are feeling the pressure of baby #2 coming into the family fast and furious.

First, Heather sings on this episode + Brooke too (but she does that every episode) so hopefully your ears get through it. 

Second, we somehow tie a PBS Daniel the Tiger episode to the entire inspo for this episode about staying in the now as we inch towards expanding our family and life goals. 

And finally, we have a SUPER SUPER SUPER amazing giveaway this week for you. We’ve been extra in the giveaway department with brands we love but hopefully you don’t mind because we love spoiling you! 

It is time for the dirty, dirty truth! We have to be honest, after recording this episode we were running to our bathrooms to scour all our skincare products for ingredients that may be lurking, harming our health (and even worse our little ones)! Even Heather, our resident clean beauty expert, learned a few things during this episode... but Brooke admits she has a lot to learn. 

Today, we welcome wonderful Stephanie Pascarella, mama + founder of Wash with Water, a skincare pioneer dedicated to crafting small-batch skin and hair products that are safe for the whole family. Tune-in as Stephanie gives us all the dirt (pun intended) on what ingredients to look out for, her passion to go above and beyond to change industry standards and if this is totally new to you she has tips on where to start!
