Mandy turned 30, and she did not come to play. Welcome to Mandyland, the over-the-top birthday bash with a mechanical bull, carnival games, a bartender, themed decor, and main character energy in every corner.

In this episode, we’re breaking down what it takes to throw a party people will actually talk about for years. From choosing a theme and sourcing props to budgeting, food, drinks, setup, and all the little details that make guests feel like they stepped into a full experience, we’re sharing the real behind-the-scenes of planning an unforgettable event.

We also talk about growing up in an event-loving family, what our parents taught us about hosting, and how to make a party feel fun, personal, and iconic without losing your mind in the process.

Perfect for anyone planning a birthday, themed party, shower, girls’ night, or just looking for an excuse to make life more fun.

In this episode, Mandy and Alyssa are officially entering their romanticize-your-summer era. They’re chatting all things summer plans, slow routines, coffee shop runs, outdoor hangs, friendship, self-care, and the tiny little rituals that make the season feel more fun and meaningful.

From their favorite spots in Arizona and San Diego to paddleboarding, biking, phone-free meals, calming nighttime routines, and making actual plans with friends, this episode is your reminder that summer doesn’t have to be extravagant to be memorable. Sometimes it’s an iced coffee, a cute walk, a good playlist, and being present enough to enjoy it.

Think of this as your guide to making summer feel intentional, relaxed, and a little more magical.

What does a doula actually do? Do you need one if you're planning an epidural? And what should you really pack in your hospital bag?

In this episode, Mandy sits down with Alyssa, a birth doula and resident birth nerd, to talk all things pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. Alyssa shares what it's actually like supporting families through birth, the different types of doulas, and why having the right support team can make a huge difference in your experience.

We dive into how to prepare physically and mentally for labor, why laboring at home can help you avoid unnecessary interventions, what every mom should know before heading to the hospital, and the biggest myths surrounding natural birth. Plus, we discuss practical ways partners can show up during labor and how to set yourself up for a more confident, empowered birth experience.

Whether you're currently pregnant, planning for the future, supporting a loved one through birth, or simply curious about what really happens behind the delivery room doors, this episode is packed with education, real-life insight, and plenty of birth talk.

Topics covered:
• What a doula does (and doesn't do)
