Being a mom is hard but being a mom without a passion is even harder. There can be a thousand excuses not to make a move, but all you need is one reason to start. So, when is the right time to start?

Brittany Fuisz (fuse) grew up on the beaches of Malibu, eating local produce and appreciating at a very young age that food is fuel. After graduating Georgetown University and Le Cordon Bleu, Brittany trained at the three Michelin starred Le Bernardin and The Food Network in New York, where she studied the finest techniques in the culinary world.

While trying to get pregnant, Brittany was struggling to conceive and visited a fertility doctor who recommended the auto-immune protocol, with which she experienced great results, e.g. more energy, reduced inflammation, improved focus, and strength. She eliminated dairy, nuts, gluten and soy from her diet and was searching for a milk alternative, when the idea hit her: “What if I make milk from flaxseed?” Not only was the flax milk allergen-free, but had a fantastic texture due to the fact that flax is a natural emulsifier. Malibu Mylk was born!

Brittany wanted to share with the world this incredible product that helped her to feel her absolute best, and successfully launched Malibu Mylk in grocery stores in the LA area in 2019.

A British native and American transplant, Danvers Simmons is the host of the inter-generational podcast, Mothers & Daughters Unfiltered. After an accomplished career as a Senior Vice President at Saatchi & Saatchi advertising and then Omnicom Media Group in London, New York, and L.A., Danvers Simmons founded the woman’s empowerment initiative Own it Feel it Live it® — a simple tool to help women connect and balance mind, body, and spirit for total wellbeing.

Diane Danvers Simmons was 16 years old when her 60-year-old mother walked out on her and her father and moved in next door with three hot college guys. It inspired her memoir, My Mother Next Door.

“Each one of us has a story, which begins with our mother, and everyone’s story has parts that are messy, painful, unexpected, beautiful, and comical,” says Danvers Simmons. “My mum was a headstrong, independent woman who was dying in her suburban life just as the feminist movement began during the revolutionary 1970s, and she was leading the way. I was growing up in a time of opposites, dark and light, pessimism and optimism, war and peace, and surviving with the help of my friends. Through this journey, I not only placed my fifty-something self into my sixteen-year-old self, but I also saw it all through a new lens, as the mother of my own blended American family: a teenage daughter and son from my own womb, and an older stepdaughter and son, courtesy of my husband’s first wife’s womb.”

Hey Friends! 

What a show this is. I am so excited to have the amazing Cody Byrns with us to talk about his personal journey, spreading the word of God, and his love for juggling. We also discuss his new book, Scar Release: Breaking Free of Yesterday's Troubles which comes out this month! 

I hope you’ll walk away from this episode feeling encouraged and inspired to live your most EPIC life! 

Cody Byrns is a best-selling author and coach with over 16 years of professional experience. Cody’s life underwent a major shift in 2013 after a horrific traffic accident left his body burned and scarred. After years of countless surgeries, and innumerable physical and emotional hurdles, Cody has since founded his own nonprofit Burn Foundation and is on a mission to spread his story of inspiration, hope, and recovery to everyone he meets.

 Cody Byrns is an internationally recognized speaker and a number one best-selling author. In May of 2013, Cody’s life was drastically changed due to a traumatic car accident.  As a result, he was considered dead until first responders saw his hand move. He received many injuries that day, including severe burns to almost 40% of his body. After years of countless surgeries and rehabilitation, Cody has chosen to not allow his scars to keep him bound in bitterness and defeat. Instead, he uses his story to uplift others.

In addition to his speaking career, in 2016, Cody founded his own non-profit burns foundation that has been able to help multiple survivors recover. To learn more about this foundation please visit

For almost any long-term career, we prepare and take years to study the subjects so we can learn all about our upcoming career and the lifestyle that goes along with it.

Motherhood is a sacred and special time in a woman's life, but our preparation for it has been undervalued and brushed to one side in favor of focusing on just keeping our heads above the water. We may take a class and perhaps read a couple of books but we really don’t prepare for all the things that motherhood brings. We mostly focus on our new little bundle of joy that will be arriving soon.

In today's episode of Confidence and Coffee, (Same great show, just with a different name!) I am joined by my friend Jessica Lorion to talk about motherhood, autoimmune disease, and finding clarity through purpose.

As an auto-immune disease fighter, Jessica's motherhood journey has been postponed.

While she navigates her health journey, she has decided to learn all about motherhood before she actually is a mother. As a Mama in Training herself, she decided to take that idea and support other Mamas in Training on their journey in and through motherhood. Listen in and learn all about how to best prepare for pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.

Living in NYC and originally from MA, Jessica is always looking for ways to gather people together, connect and create. She is an American TV/Film and Theatre actor and has been with her husband for 13 years.

When she's not hosting the podcast or acting, you can probably find her at the gym or at a local coffee shop. She has found her passion in serving others and storytelling.

Listen in to learn more about :

• Ashley’s bold prediction for Jessica and her yearning to be a mama 
• Jessica shares her journey with autoimmune disease and how she is working to heal herself.
• What made Jessica want to start a podcast about being a Mom before she became a mother herself?
• Advice for those who are looking for clarity to ignite their passion and purpose.

We’ve all been there, our sweet little baby that we adore, does something that infuriates us so much that we question our own life choices. We love our babies and would never do anything to hurt them but they can cause rage in us that we’ve never experienced before motherhood arrived.

So what is exactly “Mom Rage”? Well, It’s a term for the unrestrained anger many women experience during pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.

In today's episode of Motherhood Unfiltered, I'm sitting down with my friend Jessie Ereddia who is a life coach that helps moms manage their rage and overcome it. Jessie shares tips and tools to help mothers go from less angry to more patients and empowered. We also have an honest and real conversation about the role shame plays in our lives and how psychology can be biblical.

Listen in to learn more about :

• The taboo subject of being an “angry mom” and the science behind where our anger really comes from
• Jessie’s journey of navigating rage as a new mom and wife, as well as the steps and tools that both changed her  motherhood journey and saved her marriage
• Subtle shifts in thought about ourselves, our kids, our sleep, our time, etc., often have the biggest impact on how we feel, behave and respond

In today's crazy modern world, we want it all. We want to be intentional for our families, be the best moms we can be, and run a business? We should be able to have it, but is it even a realistic goal?  Achieving a perfect work-life balance would assume that it is a 50/50, completely equal type of relationship.  

Doing so will result in our goals being achieved, or families completely happy, and we have no mom guilt, right?  The reality is that no matter what your schedule looks like,  it can't be perfect all the time.  Somewhere along the line sacrifices will need to be made. Sometimes it's the kids or your spouse, sometimes it is work-related, sometimes it's just time for you!  The best balance is different for everyone.

 In today's episode of Motherhood Unfiltered, I'm chatting with my good friend and mentor Beth Olson, and how she runs her business while being a busy wife and mother. We also take a deep dive into balancing it all and if that is even possible!  Beth Olson, wife, mom of 4 (3 boys then a girl just like you have) business coach helping people bust through obstacles and set their lives up the way so they can spend their time doing what matters most to THEM 

Listen in to learn more about: 

• Beth shares her journey and how she got started being a health coach 
• Practical tips for those introverts who want to put themselves out there 
• Don't stay behind the "scenes" - Let the light shine from within YOU!  Beth shares her secrets to how she manages her health coach business being a busy mom of 4 kids!

The term " narcissist" is such a buzzword right now. You hear it everywhere in regular conversation as well as in so many social media memes, videos, and posts. The term used to be only reserved for an actual diagnosis from a doctor or licensed mental health professional. 

The unfortunate part of this is that so many people are being mislabeled by parents, family, strangers on the internet when they aren't narcissists at all, just showing narcissistic behaviors and being human. A True narcissist has a legitimate personality disorder. The issue is however, they don't seek treatment for any type of mental health issues.

In today's episode of Motherhood Unfiltered, I'm taking a deep dive into Narcissism, what the behaviors look like, and the symptoms of a true narcissist. I'll also examine what the Bible says about it as well. 

Listen in to learn more about : 

• What my therapist said when I thought I was a narcissist! 
• The only documented case of a narcissist being saved 
• What does the bible say about narcissist behaviors?
• Tips on how to respond to a narcissist when they attempt to gaslight you

Hey Sister!  I am so excited about today's episode, as I've been waiting so long to share it.  For most women, having a baby is a wonderful and joyful time. For some, it can be a very stressful, anxious time. It can also produce something that one might not expect – depression. Many women will experience “baby blues” following childbirth that usually last a few days up to 6 weeks. 

Sometimes, a more severe form occurs called  Postpartum depression – symptoms include depressed mood, sleep issues,  crying all the time, feelings of worthlessness, intrusive thoughts, plus several other symptoms. This period also increases the risk of suicide or suicide ideation.  

 On this episode of Motherhood Unfiltered, I talk with Amy Koppelman, author, and director of the upcoming movie, Mouthful of Air. Amy and I share our individual journey of experiencing postpartum depression as well as, imposter syndrome, and not being afraid to ask for help. We also discuss her novel, A Mouthful of Air which inspired this powerful movie, which hits theatres on October 29th! (You need to see this movie)  

Amy Koppelman is the author of three critically acclaimed novels: A Mouthful of Air, I Smile Back, and Hesitation Wounds, a 2016 Independent Publisher Book Award winner. She produced and co-adapted the film adaptation of I Smile Back, starring Sarah Silverman, who received a SAG award nomination for the role. 

The film premiered at the Sundance, Toronto, and Deauville film festivals. Her latest film, A Mouthful of Air, is her first undertaking as a screenwriter, director, producer, and illustrator.  Amy lives in New York City with her family. She is an outspoken advocate for women’s mental health. 

Listen in as we discuss: Amy's passion for storytelling and what inspired her to write the book 18 years ago?  The reasons why more people don't talk about Postpartum Depression and why we need to get the help we need, share with others, and don't be afraid to take medication to help ourselves and ultimately, our family. 

 We want to keep our kids safe and protected but we put some of the pressure upon ourselves. Resources Postpartum Support International  Find Local Support
