Postpartum can suck—let’s just say it. Your body’s doing acrobatics you didn’t sign up for, your boobs have gone rogue, and you’re pretty sure your core packed its bags and left. In this episode, I’m laughing (and cringing) my way through the wild physical side of postpartum—the stuff no one puts in the baby books—and reminding you: you’re not broken, you’re rebuilding.PS - Sorry for the wind in this one!

In this episode, I let myself wander through the feeling of wistfulness—that tender mix of longing and memory. What begins as a reflection on a single word quickly unravels into a series of tangents and winding trains of thought. From the nostalgia tucked into everyday moments, to the unexpected connections that surface when you let your mind roam free, this is an episode that doesn’t stay in one lane. Instead, it drifts—like a daydream you don’t want to wake up from. If you’ve ever found yourself chasing thoughts that lead nowhere and everywhere at once, this one’s for you.

So many romantasy, romantic suspense, and fantasy books forget the horses—and I’m here to wonder why! 🐴 In this episode, I chat about bringing ponies back into these worlds and share my hope that authors and cosplayers will join me in celebrating all things equine (and maybe help me pull off some horsey cosplay magic, too!).

In this episode of Pod of Chaos, I’m diving into the world of male main characters (MMCs)—from the brooding, morally gray fae warriors of romantasy to the protective hometown heroes of books set in our own world.

Each type of MMC brings something different to the table, and I love them BOTH! We’ll chat about archetypes and I pose the question - who is harder on your heart to love?

Pull up a chair (or a hay bale) and let’s hang out. In this episode, I’m sharing the “why” behind the podcast: what pushed me to hit record, what I’m excited to talk about, and how I hope this show will feel like a cozy, chaotic little corner of the internet for anyone who loves animals, books, and real-life stories.

In this very first episode of Pod of Chaos, it’s just me, giving you a peek into who I am, what this show is all about, and why I decided to hit record in the middle of my very messy, very real life. Expect books, banter, horses, motherhood, and a whole lot of unfiltered storytelling. Think of this as the calm before the chaos—if there ever was such a thing.
