Motherhood is messy, hilarious, and often involves way more bodily fluids than anyone warned us about—and in our very first episode of Funny in the Fire, we’re diving right into all of it. Brittany (marketer, author, mom of 2, and mom of loss) and Katie (nurse-turned-medical-sales, mom of 2, freshly postpartum) introduce themselves, share the stories behind their kids’ names and age gaps, and unpack the weird grief of “I miss being pregnant but also absolutely do not want to be pregnant again.” We talk about chasing the high of pregnancy tests, why “soak it all in” advice makes us both ragey, the realities of peeing your pants at work, NYC stomach bugs, Skims in hotel mini-fridges, pelvic floors, marriage in the chaos, and what “funny in the fire” really means to us as two Aries moms trying to stay human.If you’re here for unfiltered mom talk, chaotic honesty, and stories that make you feel less alone in the trenches, you’re in the right place.
