Tired, Fat & Sad

In my life, I have never felt more tired, fat, and sad at the same time, then when I was PREGNANT! I'm telling you what guys, pregnancy is no joke and I was not prepared. Don't get me wrong, there are SO many amazing and beautiful things about being pregnant and there are so many out there who CRAVE getting pregnant but unfortunately are unable to. I really am so grateful I was able to experience it. Man that shiz is tough. I wanted to start a series to get different perspectives on pregnancy to help those who are searching for answers when it comes to this crazy unique time in life. Today I sit down with one of my besties and she takes us through her pregnancy journey - It's a good one guys! 

We have finally arrived to the holiday season of 2020 people. This monstrosity of a year is finally coming to a close and I say, let's FREAKING KILL IT. Today my beautiful husband and I read some spooky stories for some Halloween fun. Have the best Halloween ever guys. Be safe.

On this episode it's just you and me. Today I dive into a couple moments in my life where I have felt Tired, Fat, and Sad. I discuss the moments themselves, and tips and tricks that helped me move through the hard times to come out on TOP! 

I kid you not when I say this is on the TIPPY TOP of my list for my most favorite podcast episodes! You know the story of the AMAZING gal, pushing through hard things and coming out on top... now that's a story I can get on board with. That gal, my friends, is exactly who Bethany Barnett is. Today I get to chat with her about her journey through difficult circumstances and how she came out CRUSHING IT. We talk about her booming business and how she got started with that. She also has some amazing tips for any new single mommas out there.. She's just the best and YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS ONE. So do it, right now.  

Man you guys this one is a GOOD ONE! On this episode I sit down with John Livingston and we chat about his unique family and how amazing they are. John married my aunt Grissel about 8 or so years ago and she is fresh out of the Dominican Republic and John.. well John is about as white as you can get. We dive into the logistics of marrying someone from a far off land and we also touch briefly on the big age gap he has between his kids. These are the REAL life moments that this podcast is all about. I can't wait for you all to hear this one :) 

Single moms... just HOW?!?!? How in the heck do you do it? I have so much respect for single moms and all that is on their shoulders so I wanted to sit down with one and get the tea. Kari Ann Sewell is now married, but was a single working mom for a LONG time. She's got so many good tips for how to thrive if you are a single bad ass momma or just a person in general, so LISTEN UP PEOPLE. If you learn anything from this episode, and there is A LOT of knowledge, it's to follow your damn gut. If you have anything you REALLY want to do, or something you feel called to do, just have some faith in yourself and DO IT! 

When my skin is out of wack on my face I find myself feeling Fat and Sad more often. This episode isn't just for the ladies my friends, this episode is for EVERYONE. Who doesn't want a new way to really just pamper yourself? Taking care of your skin is so important but it is really only marketed to women when in reality, men really need to take care of their skin as well. If you've ever wanted to start your skin care journey, this episode is for you. Me and the GORGEOUS McCall give you a beginners guide to skin care. We give you a great starting point and I hope it gets you excited about taking care of that beautiful face of yours. 

What makes a man more tired and sad than being a spouse?.. I'd say being a Dad. Oh my goodness being a parent makes you SO tired and SO sad but SOOOOO freaking happy and fulfilled all at the same time. How the heck does this happen you may ask? Well, have a kid, and you'll understand :) In this episode I sit down with my handsome hubby and ask him all about being a new Dad. We go through the process from deciding to be a Dad, to pregnancy, to labor and delivery, to bringing the babe home.. ALL THE THINGS! Hopefully the new Dads out there can relate and the soon to be new Dads can get a bit of info about what they are getting into! 

What makes us feel tired and sad... hmm.. career and work? Ummm YES! Making a passion or hobby into a career is something SO many people are looking to do, but unfortunately it's not always that easy and sometimes we just do NOT have the patience or the drive to make it happen for ourselves. But if you're someone who's wanting to STEP IT UP and turn your passion into something that brings in that MONEY then this episode is for YOU! Zoey White is one of my dearest friends and also one of the people I know that is making dollars doing something she LOVES and something she has always loved. I pick her brain to figure out how she did it, and let me tell you, there are some GOLD NUGGETS in this episode. Get ready to feel motivated as hell!      

One of my favorite ways to get through the Tired, Fat, and Sad moments in my life is honestly just to laugh about it. It's the one thing that helps my mood genuinely change. Here's a lighthearted episode to make you LAUGH and hopefully realize life for you, isn't too shabby. I mean unless you're one of these people.. then we feel for you. Wyatt Johnson and I read some CRAZY ridiculous relationship stories that we found online and may or may not have shared some of our own stories as well! Get ready to laugh my people.. and laugh good.
