  • EP 77: Multilingual + What Would You Do Differently Round 2 Of The Rona. @SadieSaysItAll

    Another great Sunday here on the podcast with my girl Sadie!!!

    Every first Sunday of the month Sadie joins me and adds some sweetness and spice for a "Sadie Says" perspective on all things Sadie Says It All.  From a mother to a wife, she also is a part of a reality show, collaborator, and just recently launched her very own YouTube series.  Where to get all the goods on Sadie... @SadieSaysItAll on Instagram.

    So sit back and join us today for a multilingual Google lesson (yes we tried) and the topic of the month on what would you do differently if round 2 of a lockdown happened... me  = get up and move more because ice cream is not forgiving!

  • 75: Chocolate Milkshakes, Non-Impulse Shopping + Turkey Day!

    What a week this has started off to be because it is almost time to indulge the turkey, stuffing, and chocolate cream pie!  Yes, I live for the food.  I also have completed my shopping for the holidays WOO WOO and being pregnant with a toddler...that deserves 5 stars right there my friends.  However, I must admit I am one of those non-impulse shoppers who has 4 billion window tabs open on my phone because I am afraid to commit to the purchase...I know.  

    Yes, if it is a sale of a lifetime I jump, but not right away.  I admit I have buyers remorse, sometimes.  So yeah that is today's talk and for those impulse buyers, send me your tips so I can just jump on down and not shuffle above before making the leap.

    Happy Turkey Day Ya'll!

  • 73: Wow, Another Baby?!? #ThingsNotToSayToA PregnantWoman

    Round 2 for me and still shocking to hear some of the things people are saying and writing on social media to pregnant folks.  Makes you wonder if there is some sass behind it, or they truly just need a mute button because they share a little too much.  So with that being said, I have compiled a few things to refresh your memory and make you say hmmmm, as yes, people really say these things.

    Happy Listening!

  • 72: Salad for Dinner, Aftermath of Rona, and Plans That Are Not Planned.

    What a jumble of stuff today, but that is what you get when you have a pregnant woman + a recovering Rona woman = tired and random as random can be... but you're still listening and that is all that matters!  Any who, we literally talk about everything from what we are eating, the aftermath of Rona with Sadie, and also the topic of the month..which gets addressed, I promise.

  • 71: Marriage + Biology = Why Get Married.

    I was taking a stroll down social media lane, checking out all the socials, and occasionally I find some good ones on the Tok.  Look I am not claiming it is my favorite social to use, but there are some good finds.  I found this one account that brought me to today's topic and trust me it's a goodie!  Listen in and check it out as we tackle a little marriage talk + biology.

  • 69: Dating in my 30s, Pregnant in my 30s...it's OK!

    Welcome to another episode where I crush those judgmental vibes and remind you that whatever life decisions you make, they are YOUR decisions.  Now that doesn't mean I am encouraging you to go rob a bank, because that is NOT...I REPEAT...NOT a good life decision.  I am talking about the many questions I get about what was life dating in my 30s and now pregnant with baby #2 at the age of 37.  So leave all your judgeish friends behind for this one friends, and tune in for today's episode #69!

About Off Duty

Back in 2019, I started this podcast because moms don’t get enough off-duty time. I’m a mama, a case manager and this is where the hats come off and we say the quiet part out loud. Off Duty starts…
