It’s remarkable to think about the ways motherhood forces us to grow and reflect on how we imagined motherhood to be.

Was it a childhood fantasy? Was it even something we thought about? What role do our own mothers play in how we navigate this world of parenthood?

Today’s guest is Briana Ellis Hoag, a licensed architect, interior designer and owner of Ritual Architecture. Briana is also pregnant with a baby girl – which means this is our first guest who is in the pregnancy stage of motherhood!

In this episode, Briana shares everything her pregnancy is bringing up: the reality vs. what she expected; navigating work-family balance; and how she’s working through the void of her late mother, who passed in 2016.
