🎙 Episode 17: AI: What We Really Think

Artificial Intelligence: revolutionary, terrifying, or just confusing AF? In this episode, we’re giving our honest takes on AI—what we love, what we’re skeptical about, and the ways it might actually make our lives easier (or creepier).

We’re unpacking:

✨ The pros: time-savers, creative hacks, and yes—sometimes mind-blowing convenience

✨ The cons: privacy questions, ethical headaches, and the weirdness of talking to a robot like it’s a human

✨ Our personal experiences and how we’re using (or ignoring) AI in everyday life

Whether you’re curious, cautious, or just here for the laughs, we’re keeping it real about AI’s role in our lives—and giving you permission to embrace, experiment, or respectfully say no thanks.

Who are you when the roles fall away? If you’ve ever felt like your entire identity is wrapped up in being “mom,” “wife,” “manager,” or whatever hat you’re wearing that day—this one’s for you.

In this episode, we’re digging into what it means to exist outside the labels, why roles don’t define you, and how to start reconnecting with the parts of yourself you may have left behind. Expect real talk, a little sarcasm, and practical ways to start rediscovering who you are (not just what you do).

Because spoiler: you’re a whole human being—not just a walking to-do list in yoga pants.

🎙 Episode 15: Broke-ish but Brilliant – Real Life Money Talk

Money talk without the shame spiral? Yes, please. 💸 In this episode, we’re getting real about what it means to juggle bills, budgets, and big dreams—without losing our minds in the process.

We’re breaking down:

This is not financial advice—it’s a safe space for the women who are doing their best, laughing through the chaos, and figuring it out as they go. Because being brilliant has nothing to do with your bank account.

🎙 Episode 14: FOMO vs JOMO – The Freedom of Saying No (and Actually Enjoying It)

We’ve all felt it—that little pang of “What if I’m missing out?” But what if the real win is actually in saying no? In this episode, we’re talking about the freedom that comes with JOMO—the joy of missing out—and why choosing yourself doesn’t mean you’re losing out.

We’re unpacking:

If you’ve ever struggled with boundaries or felt pressure to “keep up,” this one’s for you. Because sometimes the best way to show up… is by not showing up at all.

🎙 Episode 13: The Myth of Balance – How to Quiet Our Minds

Spoiler alert: balance is a myth. The color-coded calendars, the perfectly divided to-do lists, the idea that we can “do it all” if we just try harder? Yeah, no. In this episode, we’re breaking down why chasing balance is burning us out—and how to find peace without living in constant survival mode.

We’re unpacking:

This is your permission slip to stop striving for balance and start finding what actually works for you. Less pressure, more peace.

Hot take: not every parenting rule needs to be followed. In this episode, we’re diving into our unpopular opinions about parenting—the stuff you whisper to your best friend but wouldn’t dare say at the PTO meeting. And guess what? We’re saying it all out loud.

We’re unpacking:

🔥 The parenting “rules” we’re just not here for

😬 Why it’s OK to do things differently—even if it’s not IG-worthy

👀 The guilt, judgment, and freedom that comes with saying: this works for us

This one’s for every parent doing their best, winging it daily, and choosing what works for their family—even if it’s not Pinterest-approved. You’re not alone—and you’re not doing it wrong.

Two generations. One mic. Zero filters. In this episode, we’re joined by a very special guest crew—my daughter and her friends—for a hilarious, eye-opening, and occasionally savage conversation about what it’s like to be 20-something now vs. 40-something then.

We’re unpacking:

🧠 What’s changed in friendships, dating, and mental health

📱 The chaos of growing up with (or without) social media

🙃 What each generation just doesn’t get about the other

From AIM away messages to BeReal, from landlines to DMs—this episode is full of laughs, “wait what?” moments, and mutual respect (with just a touch of side-eye).

🎙 Episode 10: Comparison Is a Lying Thief

We said what we said—comparison is a liar, a thief, and an expert in ruining perfectly good days. In this episode, we’re getting honest about how easy it is to fall into the scroll-hole of “not enough” and why your worth was never meant to be measured against someone else’s highlight reel.

We’re unpacking:

🔍 How comparison creeps in and messes with your mindset

🚫 The lies it tells you about success, beauty, motherhood, relationships—you name it

💪 Real ways to refocus on your journey, your timing, your truth

If you’ve ever looked at someone else and felt like you were falling behind—this one’s for you. We’re here to remind you: you’re not behind, you’re not broken, and you don’t need to be her to be worthy.
