Let’s BFFR

Pull up a chair because this one goes exactly where you'd expect a Patio episode to go...absolutely nowhere.

We're talking bra snacks, the great Hoosier flood of 2026, and somehow everything in between. One conversation turns into another, the stories get progressively more ridiculous, and staying on topic was never even an option.

No script. No plan. Just Josh and me sitting on the patio talking about whatever the hell comes up

Can you be confident... and completely terrified at the exact same time?

Because if so...

I'm nailing it.

In this episode, I'm getting real about chasing big dreams while quietly questioning every single one of them. We talk about self-doubt, imposter syndrome, parenting adult kids, and the kind of worrying that doesn't magically disappear just because your children grow up.

The truth is, confidence isn't having all the answers.

It's showing up anyway.

Even when you're scared.
Even when your voice shakes.
Even when you're wondering if you're enough.

This one is a little more vulnerable than usual, but if you've ever laid awake wondering whether you're making the right decisions, whether you're doing enough, or whether you're crazy for chasing something bigger...

You're not alone.

Let's BFFR... none of us have it all figured out.

Hit follow, join the chaos, and remember—you can be scared and still be brave.

Hot flashes. Brain fog. Night sweats. Random rage. Waking up in a puddle of sweat between your boobs.

Sound familiar?

In this episode of Let's BFFR, I'm asking the question we've all wondered at least once...

Is it perimenopause...

Or is everyone actually just that annoying?

Join me as I navigate the joys of aging, hormones that have clearly chosen violence, and trying to determine whether I need estrogen... or just five minutes where nobody talks to me.

If you've ever cried over a commercial, forgotten why you walked into a room, or considered filing for divorce because someone chewed too loudly...

This episode is for you.

Because sometimes... you just have to be fucking for real.

We all have them.

Those completely irrational little habits that science probably can't explain... but we swear by anyway.

Washing your face when you're overwhelmed.
Taking a deep breath in the freezer aisle.
The Vicks nasal stick.
Turning the music down to find an address.
That one lucky parking spot.

Do any of these actually work?

Probably not.

Will I keep doing them?

Absolutely.

In this episode, I'm sharing the completely unverified, highly questionable things that somehow make life feel just a little more manageable. It's funny, relatable, and proof that sometimes the placebo effect is good enough for me.

Because if it keeps me from completely losing my mind...

I'm calling it self-care.

Hit follow, embrace the chaos, and let me know—what's something that probably does nothing... but you swear by?

Somewhere along the way, adulthood came with a list of expectations that nobody remembers signing.

Have a successful career.
Keep the house clean.
Eat healthy.
Exercise.
Be a good spouse.
Be a good parent.
Answer every text.
Remember birthdays.
Drink enough water.
And somehow... don't lose your mind.

Let's BFFR...

The expectations are absolutely wild.

In this episode, we're talking about the invisible pressure to have it all together, why we're all just making it up as we go, and why it's okay if your best today looks different than yesterday.

If you've ever felt like you're constantly trying to keep up with everyone else's expectations while quietly wondering if you're doing enough, this one's for you.

Come laugh with me, maybe tear up a little, and remember that none of us actually have it all figured out.

Follow the chaos. New episodes every Tuesday.

If you're a sports parent... This one's for you.

From living in the car and spending a small fortune on travel sports to surviving on concession stand food, endless laundry, and schedules that somehow revolve around everyone but you... Parenting an athlete is a full-contact sport.

This week, I'm talking about the chaos, the sacrifices, the emotional roller coaster, and why--even after all the early mornings, late nights, and gas station dinners -- We'd still do it all over again.

Because we may not have signed up for this...

But we'd never trade watching our kids do what they love.

So grab your coffee, climb into the car (because let's be honest, you're probably headed to practice), and let's be fucking for real.

Follow the chaos

Patio Series – Episode 4: Marriage: The Stuff Nobody Warned You About

Everyone tells you marriage is about love, communication, and compromise...

Nobody tells you it's also about thermostat wars, deciding what's for dinner every single night, becoming the family password manager, collecting reusable grocery bags you'll never remember to take, and somehow having the exact same conversation for 20 years.

Join Jen and Josh as they laugh through the little things that make marriage wonderfully ridiculous. It's honest, relatable, and proof that sometimes the best part of a relationship is being able to laugh at the chaos together.

Pull up a chair. Grab a drink. Stay awhile. 🌙🔥

Episode 13: Parenting Older Kids (Nobody Warned Me About This)

Everyone tells you to enjoy them while they're little... but nobody warns you about what happens when they get older.

In this episode of Let's BFFR, I'm talking about the stage of parenting that no one prepares you for. The attitude. The eye rolls. The one-word answers. The constant worrying, even though they're becoming more independent. Parenting doesn't get easier—it just gets different.

We'll laugh about the chaos, the emotional whiplash, and those moments that make you question everything... while also talking about the incredible privilege of watching your kids grow into their own people.

If you're raising teenagers, young adults, or you're somewhere in between, this one's for you.

Because sometimes the hardest part of parenting isn't keeping them alive...

It's learning how to let them live.

Come laugh, nod your head, and remember—you are definitely not the only one going through it.

If you've ever yelled, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" from behind the wheel... this episode is for you.

This week on Let's BFFR, I'm venting about the everyday driving habits that make absolutely no sense. From people who refuse to merge, to drivers who think roundabouts are optional, to brake-checkers, left-lane campers, and the folks who somehow make every four-way stop more confusing than it needs to be...

We're covering it all.

No road rage is required... but it definitely helps.

Buckle up for a hilarious rant that'll have you laughing, agreeing, and probably questioning everyone else's driver's license.

Because let's be fucking for real...

Some people should have to retake the driving test every five years. 🚗💨

Guys, this episode is basically a public service announcement.

You're welcome.

Today I'm spilling all the secrets women have been keeping from you for years. What we really mean when we say "I'm fine," why "whatever" definitely does NOT mean whatever, and why "you don't have to get me anything" is one of the biggest traps ever created.

We're talking mental load, effort, thoughtfulness, and all the things women wish their partners would just figure out on their own.

But don't worry, ladies — I'm calling us out too. Because if we're being honest, expecting someone to read our minds isn't exactly helping the situation.

So guys, grab a notebook. Ladies, buckle your seat belts, its going to get alittle bumpy.

We're saying the quiet parts out loud today.

Send this episode to your husband, boyfriend, partner, or that man who still asks what's for dinner after you've spent twenty years making dinner.

Let's BFFR.
