We can only imagine how hard being a nurse is, let alone during covid. Thank you Lindsay for coming on and being real about the tragedy and trauma all of you first responders faced. Floaties, be prepared for some real talk. And also be prepared for disassociation and inappropriate laughter because how do you process these things?!

Happy listening!

We had a lot of fun on this one. Even without a guest. Talking about documentaries and parents and music and YOU, our favorite “Floaties”! Plus you get to see a little QT Girl if you’re watching the video which is always a bonus. We love you guys!

Who knew recording a podcast wasn't as simple as pressing record & go! We apologize in advance for the fuzzy sounds coming through on this one. In these early stages we are so grateful to all of you who tune in despite our obvious amateur ways. We can only go up from here! Thank you to Sophie for letting us pick your brain on learning another language!!

Let's try this again...

Jenna deserved another shot because Jake's abrupt departure in the last episode didn't do her justice. Life is interesting when you grow up in West Virginia with a mom from Boston and a dad from New Mexico. Tune in to see/hear how growing up in a small town (current population 2,266) can really shape a person.

After missing a week of recording, we’ve come to realize that consistency can be a little wobbly so to speak. And rolling out a podcast once a week can be a tough thing to do when life and schedules just aren’t aligning. But here we are! The pod goes on, even on sick days. Commitment is key people! And we have a pod to record!

Thank you, Jenna, for rolling with the punches. Can’t wait for part 2 of this one. Here is our Spotify playlist (new songs added each week!):

We are beyond excited for you to hear all about the creation of this amazing little "miracle bag," as we like to call it, named Alkaa.

A little weekend chat, West Virginia weddings, tech challenged mamas (we got you), some Swiftie talk (why don’t we connect with her?!😱), chatting with Jeremy, Airbnb advice, a good book rec (!), and introducing TEA WITH LEIGH…{summertime movies and candy 🍿🍬}.

This was a fun one! Thank you to our amazing first guests!! Can’t wait to have you back on.
