Season your eggs, people. That's where we're starting.

Welcome to Maycember—where dinner is either at 4:20 or 8:30, the tupperware situation is out of control, and we're just trying to keep everyone fed. In this episode, we're giving you a real-life look inside how we're feeding our families right now—what's working, what's absolutely not, and the quick meals saving us on the busiest days.

We're talking dino nuggets, fancy eggs, kitchen nightmares, where we're shopping, and when we're cooking versus calling it and eating out. It's honest, a little chaotic, and very much this season of life.

This is Chasing The Spark....Come Sit With Us.

In this Mother's Day episode, we talk about how our mom shaped who we are and how we've stepped into those same motherhood roles ourselves. We get honest about the invisible load, the pressure to be the "perfect mom," and the reality that motherhood isn't always easy—there are bumps along the way.

This episode explores real, modern motherhood—how it shows up differently for everyone, from biological moms to stepmoms, adoptive moms, and "found moms." Because being a mom isn't about perfection—it's about how you show up.

Happy Mother's Day!

We tell ourselves we'll start when we have more time, more clarity, or when things finally "feel right." But that version of ready doesn't really exist. In this episode, Katie and Heather unpack the "I'll start when…" trap and the real reasons we keep putting things off—like fear, perfectionism, and overwhelm. We get honest about what we haven't started, what's been holding us back, and the moments we took action before we felt ready—and how those ended up mattering most. Because the truth is: You don't find clarity before you start—you build it by starting.

Ever wondered what a "typical" day really looks like for us? In this episode, we're taking you behind the scenes for a full Day in the Life of Heather and Katie—from the moment we wake up to how we wind down at night. We're sharing our real-life morning routines (the polished and the not-so-polished), what working from home actually looks like day-to-day, and how we balance productivity, distractions, and everything in between. Plus, we dive into our evening routines, how we reset after a long day, and the little habits that keep us grounded.

Whether you're looking for routine inspiration or just curious about how we structure our days, this episode gives you an honest, relatable look at how we make it all work.

Grab your coffee (or your comfy blanket) and come spend the day with us!

Between reality TV drama, hospital shows, and comfort rewatches, our TVs have been very busy lately.

As two very TV-obsessed people, Heather and Katie cover everything from chaotic reality TV and intense hospital dramas to the comfort shows we keep coming back to again and again.

We chat about the shows we're watching week-to-week, the ones we're bingeing late at night, and the series that somehow always end up in our rewatch rotation. Expect opinions, hot takes, a few recommendations, and probably some passionate rants about plot twists, characters we love (or hate), and the shows we just can't quit.

Grab your remote, settle in, and come talk TV with us.

• The West Wing
• Younger
• Love Is Blind
• Scrubs
• The Pit
• Shrinking
• Paradise
