We Are More Than Moms

An Investor Said ‘Don’t Get Pregnant’ - So They Did: Emily DiDonato and Christina Garcia


Listen Later

Today we’re joined by Emily DiDonato and Christina Garcia - co-founders of the skincare brand Covey, real-life best friends, and moms who built their business while pregnant at the same time. This conversation was really special - a heart-to-heart between two sets of best friends building businesses and raising families side by side. 


We talk about what it looked like to launch a company (and raise money!) while growing humans, how their friendship evolved through motherhood, and the realities of leading a team while navigating identity shifts, sleepless nights, and the pressure to “bounce back.” Emily opens up about her experience with postpartum anxiety and starting SSRIs, and Christina shares how she supported her through that season. Christina gets real about raising three under three, her hilarious reaction to finding out she was having twins, and what actually makes it manageable.


We also dive into social media boundaries, mom guilt / shame, and the power of showing up for each other - in business, in motherhood, and in the in-between.
