January 22, 2025 23: Kayla - Breaking Free from Labels & Taking Control of Your Story
This week, I’m chatting with Kayla —a woman who’s rewriting the rules of life, love, and everything in between. Kayla is a homeschool mama, a fierce self-advocate, and a pro at navigating life’s curveballs with grace, grit, and radical responsibility (my kind of woman).
We’re diving into some juicy topics, like:
Why radical responsibility is the ultimate power move (yes, even when it’s hard AF)
How breaking free from labels can unlock your most authentic self
The not-so-glamorous truth about anger and how it’s often more about you than them (oof, I felt that one)
And how creative communication can make all the difference in parenting, marriage, and every relationship

Kayla also shares her journey of homeschooling her kiddos while tackling her own health challenges, and let me tell you—her insights on self-awareness, internal peace, and the power of belief will have you rethinking how you show up in your own life.
This conversation is raw, real, and packed with those “oh sh*t” moments that hit you right in the feels. If you’ve been feeling stuck in old patterns or struggling with big emotions, this episode is a must-listen.

Grab your favorite drink, a cozy spot, and get ready to take some notes, because Kayla is about to drop some serious wisdom.

January 15, 2025 22: Daisy - Somatic Therapy, Healing & Reconnecting With Yourself
In this episode of The Brave B*tches Podcast, I sit down with Daisy to dig into some juicy topics about relationships, vulnerability, and personal growth.
We kick things off by exploring why vulnerability is such a game-changer in relationships—and yep, we even get into how it connects with sexual intimacy. Daisy and I talk about the courage it takes to show up as your whole self, messy parts and all, to build those deep, meaningful connections. We also get real about what it’s like to keep the passion alive in relationships, sharing some of our own stories and tips on spending quality time together and keeping communication open and honest.
From there, we dive into a topic that hits close to home for both of us: leaving a community you feel safe in, and stepping into our individuality. It’s a raw and vulnerable conversation about letting go of long-held beliefs, navigating the loss of relationships and identity, and working through the anger that can come with it. We also touch on the importance of finding or building a supportive community and how somatic therapy has helped us reconnect with our bodies and heal.
This episode is packed with stories, insights, and a lot of heart. Whether you’re looking to deepen your relationships, work through personal growth, or just feel seen in your journey, I think you’ll get so much out of this one. Tune in, and let’s get brave together!
Sound Bites:
"Showing both the light and the dark in ourselves is where humans find connection and intimacy."
"Asking for help is a gift to both ourselves and the person who gets to support us."
"Sexual intimacy is an opportunity to share all aspects of ourselves and be vulnerable with our partners."
"It was a wild experience to drop all your beliefs, drop all your relationships, your community, your sense of self, your destiny, just all the pieces that you kind of create in your own mind to decide who you are. And when you leave a religion, you have to drop everything."

January 08, 2025 21: Jessi - The Evolution of Friendship, Healing & Personal Growth
In this episode of The Brave B*tches Podcast, I reconnect with Jessi, after many years apart, to dive deep into our shared journeys of self-discovery and transformation. We reflect on the highs and lows we’ve experienced, from our teenage years to life in our thirties. We talk about the power of communication, the importance of being on the same team in relationships, and creating safe spaces for ourselves and those we care about.
Jessi shares stories about her growth in relationships and health, touching on how self-reflection, prayer, and understanding herself has been crucial to becoming a better friend and partner. She also opens up about her health challenges and how she blends Western and natural medicine—like essential oils and a plant-based diet—to support her overall well-being.
This episode is a beautiful journey through transformation and resilience. Whether you’re navigating changes in your health, relationships, or personal growth, Jessi’s story offers so much inspiration. Tune in, and let’s get brave together!
Sound bites:
"You're just going through your quarter life crisis. You're gonna come out on the other side. It's just the process."
"Majority of it was mindset because if I was feeling super overwhelmed and chaotic, that definitely came out in my relationships."
"But it's very much part of my life. I literally use it for everything. It's in our wellness first aid kit. We use it for bumps and bruises and stomach aches and everything. So yeah, I'm like, I got an oil for that, y'all."

On this episode, Kelsey and I discuss her work in human rights and her experiences living abroad. We also touch on the positives and negatives of social media, along with how it can benefit humanitarian work. I am so honored that she was willing to be on the podcast, and I loved getting to dive into her hilarious, intelligent mind.

The majority of the episode we delve into our shared love for the book series' A Court of Thorns and Roses and Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. We talk about what we love, what we think could have been better, and basically just fan-girl over the whole Maas universe. We chat about our love for reading, the role it has played in our lives since childhood, and the power of books to heal and inspire. The conversation then shifts to my experience of visiting a monastery in Nepal and how I met my husband.

June 07, 2024 16: Emily M. - Multi-Passionate Entrepreneur, Animal Lover, & Fear Fighter
On this episode, I chat with Emily, a multi-passionate entrepreneur who proves you don’t have to pick just one thing. She has been on social media for many years, growing her first Instagram account and doing brand deals while she was still in high school! She has created and sold phone cases, had a clothing line, and now works as a social media manager, photographer and real estate agent. We chat about our anxieties, and the continual practice of overcoming our fears by facing them. We delve into our thoughts on the age of “authentic” social media versus the always curated feeds, both the positives and negatives. She also shares her love for animals, especially advocating for rats as being the best little pets, and her dream to one day be a sanctuary for unwanted animals without a home.

May 10, 2024 14: Special Episode with My Sisters, Christa & Cat - Childhoods, Healing, & Laughter
On this special episode, I get together with my two older sisters, Cat and Christa. We talk about our family dynamics, laugh about our childhood antics, and tease each other as only siblings can. I dive into some healing that happened between Cat and I in this past year and the aftermath that has led to a deeper, more intimate relationship. We each vulnerably share what it’s like to grow our sibling relationships into adult friendships, and how we have learned to communicate better. We share about the “roles” we all hold in our families, what it’s like to break outside the mold and the struggle of learning who we are outside of the need for perfection. Ultimately, this is a conversation between sisters - casual, open, silly, and a little chaotic.
If you, or someone you know, has dealt with domestic abuse - Christa wants to remind you that you are not alone and to reach out. She recommends the Facebook group “Confusion to Clarity” for support, or to look up other support groups to connect and feel heard with others going through it too.
