9 to 5ish with theSkimm

Jessica Alba and Lizzy Mathis on Prioritizing Your Mental Health as a Mom

Listen Later

Welcome back to a new season of 9 to 5ish. We’re kicking things off with Jessica Alba and Lizzy Mathis, two best friends and co-hosts of the show “Honest Renovations” on The Roku Channel. There are plenty of home renovation shows out there. But theirs highlights the importance of mom having their own space to recharge. As moms of three kids each, they learned that the hard way. 


In this episode of 9 to 5ish, Jessica and Lizzy share: 


  • Their friendship origin story and why Lizzy lied to Jessica about her age for years
  • How they took the jump from being friends to becoming co-hosts of a show 
  • Why surface-level friendships don’t last in business partnerships 
  • The burnout of filling others’ cups before their own, and how they fixed it 
  • Tips on dealing with the highs and lows of the holiday season
