March 02, 2023 54. Somehow I Manage with Director of Shopper Marketing, Kelley McIntyre
This week, Emma asked her longest-standing best friend to join her on the podcast to discuss what it's like to be mom with a full-time, director-level role in the marketing industry. Kelley and Emma give a bit of their backstory, and Kelley explains her career journey, what makes a bad manager versus a good manager, being a powerful woman amongst male colleagues, and her undying love for Ludacris. During the WTH and RWL segments, Emma explores her relationship with Instagram and instant gratification, shares an exciting update about goings-on at the house, and discusses initial thoughts about a new podcast whose topic is J.K. Rowling. Also for those that plan to partake, the book of the month for March is Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus!

My next book: The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna

February 23, 2023 53. The New Era of EMMASTHING + An Attempted "Book of the Month" Episode
I'm not a book podcast, we know this. But I have gotten back into reading in a big way this year, so I figured it'd be fun to attempt a Book of the Month situation on the podcast. Unclear if we'll do it again, but hey—can't say we didn't attempt it. Besides reviewing Carrie Soto Is Back with my mom at the end of the episode, I speak to going "paid" with my newsletter last week and the "why" behind it all, tell you what the hell I've been doing lately, talk about some shows we're loving and finishing up, and essentially perform a spoken word love letter to Kate Kennedy of the Be There In Five podcast. Enjoy!

February 16, 2023 52. Simple, Solid Love Advice
In this week's episode, Emma answers some listener-submitted love advice questions that cover a variety of topics from keeping your sense of independence when moving in with your partner, why exes seem to magically appear nicer post-breakup, what to do when you make all the decisions in the relationship, and why you shouldn't feel behind if you're 34 and single. Emma also recounts a vodka-fueled Friday night clad with screaming Miley Cyrus lyrics, sobbing over the inevitable passing of her dog, meditation music, and vomit, gives brief chaotic updates on the state of their house that's undergoing mold remediation and foundation repair, and hints at a surprise guest on next week's first ever Book of the Month episode.

February 09, 2023 51. The Most WTF Things Men Have Said To Me
Valentine's may be one day, but Emma is capitalizing on the theme this month by making the next few episodes about love, dating, and relationships. To kick it off, Emma dug back through her blog archives to a post from 2017 titled "36 Of The Most WTF Things Men Have Said To Me," and in today's episode, she's reading it out loud for all to hear. You won't believe your ears, and that's kind of the point; sometimes, you have to kiss a lot of wastes of human life to find your Z. Emma ends the episode with the story of her worst date, and of course goes over what the hell she's been doing, and what she's reading & watching (Shrinking and Bad Sisters).
The first attempt of a TWES book of the month will be Carrie Soto Is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reid. We'll discuss the book on the February 23rd episode, so get your copy before then!

February 02, 2023 50. Slow and Average Wins the Race with my Financial Coach, Cory Nichols
Emma takes a sharp left turn in her weekly content this week by having a conversation about money with her financial coach, Cory Nichols. Cory isn't your run-of-the-mill financial advisor—he's a money guy who believes that everyone should strive for "average," that there's a time to save and a time to spend, and who has a lot of thoughts on crypto and Dave Ramsey. In this episode, Emma gives her typical weekly recap (including some discussion around PMDD), announces the first "book of the month" for February, offers some reviews on a movie and a show, and then gets into all things money with Cory. Check the show notes for everything mentioned in this episode!

January 26, 2023 49. "No More Shortcuts" with Personal Trainer and Nutritionist, Meg Morat
Today's episode is long overdue. For the last (almost) four years, Emma has been working with personal trainer and nutritionist Meg Morat. Not only has Emma learned so much about diet, exercise, and everything in between, but her and Meg have formed a friendship, too (Meg was at the wedding!). In this episode, you'll hear Emma's usual WTHIBD (What The Hell I've Been Doing) + RWL (Reading, Watching, Listening), and then a full hour with Meg that covers a bunch of listener-submitted questions but far beyond those, too. Meg answers things like cardio or weights first? What is the perfect cardio to weight lifting ratio? Do fad diets or drugs work? How to start at home when you're not ready for the gym? How to get back into fitness postpartum, and SO much more. There's a lot of nuggets to be tucked away for later from this episode, and we hope you love it!

January 19, 2023 48. Hey, Jealousy!
In today's solo episode, Emma talks about last week's downward spiral into jealousy, imposter syndrome, and self doubt but all with an air of brevity. She hadn't had a spiral like this in so long, she really wanted to capitalize on it because what else is it if not content? Emma also chit chats about life lately, offers a few book and movie reviews, and remembers how incredible the show Fleabag is as her and her husband are rewatching it. Tune in to get the inside scoop and check out show notes below!

January 12, 2023 47. Vintage Duckeration with @harrisvintage
Vintage curator, brand design expert, and passionate cinephile Kaitlyn Coffee has not only been my friend for 25 years, but is the mastermind behind the instagram account @harrisvintage. For the first installment of my Refresh Series, I sit down with Kaitlyn at her home in Dallas, Texas and we shoot the shit about everything under the sun and then some. Kait talks about her upbringing, her climb through the advertising ranks, and her journey to where she is now as a self-employed expert vintage curator. You'll laugh, you probably won't cry, and you will enjoy the shit out of this episode. I can guarantee that. Follow her on Instagram, hire her to help create the space you've only ever dreamt of, and check the show notes below for links!

January 05, 2023 46. New Year, Same Me (But Better)
Big, lofty New Year's resolutions are for the birds. Smaller, more specific resolves though? Those are great. For the first episode of 2023, I'm sharing my own personal resolves for the new year, including learning how to do a cat eye, carrying a book and small notebook with me everywhere I go, commenting more on Instagram, honing in my nutrition, and being even MORE unapologetically myself. I also recap my "winter break," and review a bunch of shows and movies including White Lotus, Babylon, The Patient, Jack Ryan, The Banshees of Inisherin, and the Shania Twain documentary. AND I share an incredibly concerning overheard conversation between a couple that is going to keep up at night for the foreseeable future.

December 22, 2022 45. Your Unpopular Opinions
Opinions are like assholes—we all have one...or several. I'm bringing back a series favorite for the last episode of 2022: UNPOPULAR OPINIONS. Listeners had A LOT of thoughts, including but absolutely NOT limited to: Michael Bublé, Crumbl cookies, carbonated water, pregnancy kind of sucking, pedicures with friends, Colleen Hoover books, top sheets, ketchup, Nutella, avocado, and someone even came for chocolate chip cookies (audible gasp). Tune to listen and argue with these hot takes, PLUS hear my week and weekend recap, how Z and I got caught in the act by my parents, a Dallas restaurant review, and a lot of chitchat about TV shows. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and I'll talk at you in 2023!
