LONG EPISODE ALERT 🚨 Ft. Baby L 💕

In this episode of Highly Talkative Podcast, I’m getting real about EVERYTHING life has been throwing at me lately…

From navigating exclusive breastfeeding & pumping (and not always knowing how many oz your baby is actually getting 😩), to figuring out what work-life balance really looks like when your kids will ALWAYS come first—no exceptions.

We’re also checking in on mental health because whew… your girl is not feeling her best physically or mentally lately. From late-night eating habits to finally getting back into a workout routine—this is a judgment-free zone.

I’m also talking about:

• Celebrating my son’s birthday in a simple but meaningful way 💙
• Why stay-at-home moms (and ALL parents) deserve REAL breaks
• My dogs stressing me out running away all week 🐶😤
• Losing who you were before becoming everything to everyone
• Why you’re probably NOT unmotivated… just overstimulated
• Letting kids take mental health days from school
• Learning to take constructive criticism without taking it personal
• And showing love to my business Keep It Stashy 💼✨

This episode is raw, relatable, and a reminder that you’re not alone in ANY of this.

If you hear a little extra noise this episode… mind your business 😂 (my necklace had something to say). But for real this episode is about healing, building, and evolving. From postpartum life and self-care struggles to launching Keep It Stashy and finding my confidence again, I’m sharing it all.Also taking a moment to reflect on my mom and how I know she’d be proud of everything I’m becoming 💛.

Between the nonstop road construction, viral stories shaking up the community, and trying to navigate everyday life, it’s been a lot. In this episode, I’m unpacking what’s been happening locally and how social media is changing everything for better or worse. On a personal note, I’m talking growth, confidence, postpartum changes, and why I’m finally stepping into my voice louder than ever.

In this raw and heartfelt episode, I’m opening up about the mental load no one really talks about the invisible responsibilities of managing a home, raising kids, paying bills, and how all of it quietly impacts our stress and relationships.

At the same time, I’m slowing down and soaking in every moment with my newborn because the reality that this could be my last baby hits deep. I’m embracing the beauty, the chaos, the exhaustion… and yes, taking all the pictures.

We’re also celebrating wins like my niece absolutely killing it at her district track meet (24.33 and coming for that 23.8 👏🏾), and the joy of being part of a truly special surprise baby shower for Jowell.

But let’s be real this season isn’t without pressure. Unpaid maternity leave has me tapping into savings and thinking hard about building more for myself and my future.

I’m also talking about something every parent navigates: disciplining with love. How to be firm, set boundaries, and still make sure your kids feel safe, supported, and deeply loved.

And finally taking that first step back into me. Starting my fitness journey four weeks postpartum after a C-section, giving myself grace while building back strength, physically and mentally.

This episode is a mix of honesty, pride, pressure, growth, and gratitude because this season of life is all of it at once.

This episode is a real, unfiltered look at growth, motherhood, and finding my confidence again. I share how I’m rebuilding routines, prioritizing self-care, and using daily affirmations to shift my mindset while learning to trust my intuition—that “little voice” that never lies.

I open up about missing my mom, navigating tough emotions, and giving myself space to decompress without guilt. From staying consistent for my kids to holding myself and others accountable, this is about showing up as my best self—even on the hard days.

We also get into real-life moments—figuring out breastfeeding, managing daily routines, and adjusting to a world where everything costs more. The question is… are we really living, or just surviving?

This is about healing, discipline, and choosing peace over pressure—one day at a time.

This episode is a little bit of everything—SNAP changes, parenting struggles, healing after surgery, and just navigating real life as a mom. If you get it, you get it. My first time driving post C-section? Let’s just say… it was an experience. 😅 I’m sharing the real healing journey, what my body feels like now, and why my baby girl is NOT here for car rides. Also, we’re laying down the law in this house! Every “C” equals a week without games. Too harsh or just right? Let’s talk discipline, balance, and raising focused kids in a gaming world.

Sometimes life doesn’t go how you planned but that doesn’t mean it isn’t powerful. In this episode, I open up about finally giving birth, navigating unexpected turns in labor, and learning to embrace the experience for what it was.We’ll also get into adjusting to life as a mom of three, the beauty of support during and after labor, and meaningful ways I’m connecting with my kids—like writing letters they’ll have forever.And of course, we’re tapping into what’s trending: Jay Z hitting the stage again, WNBA pay raises, Southwest Airlines’ new approach to seating, and excitement over 7 Brew coming to town.

Being past your due date can mess with your mind. In this episode, I open up about pregnancy blues at 40 going on 41 weeks, trying all the natural labor tricks, and the emotional battle of feeling like your body isn’t cooperating. We talk about learning what your emotions are telling you, leaning on the right support system, and accepting what’s out of your control. I also dive into relationship dynamics like age gap dating, women maturing faster than men, and the difference between needing a partner and wanting one.

Before going into labor, we all build expectations about what it will look like, feel like, and how we’ll handle it. In this episode, I talk through what I expected, what I’ve learned along the way, and why labor rarely follows the plan we create in our heads. Also learning that rest is important—but when you’re someone who thrives on movement, productivity, and momentum, sitting still can feel uncomfortable. In this episode I talk about the struggle of slowing down and why not feeling productive can mess with your mindset.

Also many of us hold ourselves to extremely high standards. In this episode I talk about self-criticism, where it comes from, and how to push yourself to be better without constantly feeling like you’re falling short.

Life is hard AF. Period. But we’re talking about making a way instead of making excuses. What it looks like to push through, build anyway, and choose growth. Even when it would be easier to fold. You also never know when my oldest is going to pop in and steal the mic. This episode is full of real-life interruptions, unexpected commentary, and those sweet moments that remind us why we do this parenting thing in the first place.

Baby girl could be here any day now — and I’m reflecting on everything leading up to this moment.

From cardinals reminding me that my mom is near, to being deeply loved at my baby shower, to acknowledging my own growth — this episode is about prevailing.

We’re talking:

• Manifestation with discipline
• Protecting my peace
• Postpartum awareness
• Using maternity leave intentionally
• Dogs that clearly want to start a new life outside
• And the people who are meant to be in my life showing up exactly when I need them

Gratitude. Growth. Alignment. And a little comedy, because that’s just me.
