hello good humans

Episode 87: We are so excited to bring you our conversation with Jordenne Butler, as she prepares to take the stage and compete for Miss Wisconsin in just a few days. If there is one word to describe Jordenne, it would be Resilient. She talks about her father being diagnosed with cancer when she was young, and how that inspired her to teach children about resilience in their everyday lives. Jordenne talks about her love of pageantry, and what has kept her going through being a local titleholder in the Coulee Region.

Cheer Jordenne on as she competes for Miss Wisconsin, and follow her journey this year @missrivercitywi @jordennebutler

Episode 86. We are so excited to bring you our first ever in person episode (well, at least since Brittany joined the pod). We spent the weekend together in Des Moines, Iowa and chatted about what we were up to there. We also got deep & vulnerable and talked about what self love and wellness look like in the year 2026. We talk about a few sensitive topics: body dysmorphia, eating disorders. As always, our DMs are open <3

Episode 85:

We are so excited to welcome Ashton Marshall to the podcast! Ashton works with Brittany in Nebraska, and got vulnerable with us about her very painful fertility journey, how she ended up in her current job field, and how she has worked though/avoided burnout. Ashton also talked about what parenting and faith mean to her. Thank you Ashton for sharing your pregnancy story with us, for talking about the hard stuff, and knowing that your story may help women in their own journeys. We hope you enjoy this episode! 

Content warnings: miscarriage, pregnancy loss

Episode 84: This week we are welcoming Morgan Tracy to the podcast! Morgan is an avid traveller and explorer, having lived on both coasts of the United States & taking her adventures abroad! Morgan was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in high school, and has spent the last few years not only navigating the gluten-free world, but embracing it and even celebrating it! Through her personal brand @soursideupgf, Morgan shares her own gluten-free recipes with the world. Morgan also talks about what wellness looks like for her, and what she does professionally (We'll give you a hint... it also has to do with food!).

Episode 83. We are so blessed have had this HARD and IMPORTANT conversation with Kathleen Jensen, the creator of The Little Heart Project. After experiencing a traumatic life event and suffering in silence for eight years, Kathleen saw a sliver of light at the end of the tunnel, through a little crocheted heart. Since the creation of The Little Heart Project, Kathleen and hundreds of others across the globe, have crocheted and distributed hundreds of thousands of hearts, all with the intention of suicide prevention. Kathleen is passionate about talking about suicide in order to stop suicide. She shares her own story, as well as some of the stories she's received from people all over the world who have found her hearts.

We want all of our listeners to be safe and protect their peace, so we do want to provide some content warnings: suicide, self harm, miscarriage
