Happy Summer! As we all here at the Something Navy team look to enjoy the sun, beach, fireworks and all that comes with July in New York, we’re looking to take a little bit of a summer break. For the next few weeks, we’re going to revisit some of our favorite episodes. For today’s flashback, we’re going all the way back to Arielle’s first episode with Brandon: Relationship & Marriage: When Brandon Met Arielle. The episode is an old goodie, with story time from Brandon and Arielle that involved Mexico, Brandon’s Mom and maybe a little bit of bickering. While you’re all laying by the pool, enjoying summer treats and staying cool, we hope you all enjoy our look back!

Join Arielle as she welcomes friend, mother and fellow entrepreneur, Chelsea Hirschhorn. Chelsea is a mom of four and the Founder and CEO of Frida, the parent company of Frida Mom and Frida Baby. The brand started in a garage in Miami Beach, Florida (when Chelsea was still working as a sports lawyer with the Marlins), and has grown into the fastest-growing parenting brand.

Snotty noses. Diaper duty. Postpartum. She's been there. As a CEO, Chief Fussbuster and Baby Guru all wrapped in one—Chelsea knows the struggles of motherhood firsthand, which is why she spends almost every waking minute thinking of ways to make parenthood a little bit easier. 

In this episode, Arielle and Chelsea talk about what led her to becoming the CEO of Frida and what parents can expect from the Frida Baby and Frida Mom products. Chelsea discusses the obstacles she faced broadcasting Frida's commercials on national TV before becoming the first brand to showcase a mother breastfeeding in a commercial.

Plus, Chelsea talks about the importance of female public figures leading the way: “Women like Halsey, Serena Williams, Chrissy Teigen…using their platforms to expose the raw vulnerable realities of parenthood and motherhood have helped pave the ways for brands, like Frida, to exist.”
