Hi! We're fresh off Spring Break over here. I'm sitting down solo to recap the whole trip with the family - all the pretty places we went, the hours we drove, and the sweet nostalgia of The Cheesecake Factory. I'm feeling relieved to be home and sink back into a routine, and this is a good ol' honest check-in about where I'm at. Everything feels messy in the way that life does when you return from a long trip, so I'm talking myself through living with mental and physical clutter, starting vs. finishing, and why trying to "reset everything" never really works for me. Instead, I'm trying to focus on letting simpler, smaller things land. Nothing groundbreaking, just a real in-the-moment check-in if you've been feeling a little scattered too.

Hello! In this seriously helpful episode, I sit down with therapist Stevie Blum for a conversation that will feel deeply familiar to anyone who looks like they have it together on the outside, but feels completely overwhelmed on the inside. Stevie works with high-functioning women who are capable, successful, and seemingly calm - but internally are stuck in cycles of overthinking, self-doubt, and constant mental pressure. She introduces the concept of the "SWAN" (Successful Women Appearing Normal), and explains why so many women today are quietly exhausted from living in their heads. Together we unpack the gap between awareness and actual change, why traditional therapy can sometimes leave us feeling stuck, and what's really happening in the brain when we spiral. Stevie shares practical, tangible tools to help interrupt anxious thought patterns, move out of analysis into action, and build real self-trust. We also get into jealousy and comparison as signals rather than flaws, how to stop judging your emotions, and what it looks like to create your own "Personal Operating Manual" for a calmer, more aligned life. Thank you so much Stevie!

Today, I have the pleasure of sitting down with Courtney Kelly, founder of Courting - a tennis-inspired brand rooted in nostalgia, community, and seriously good style. What started as an idea for a tennis themed coffee shop (and even a matchmaking app) evolved into a full collection that blends performance, functionality, and fashion in the coolest way. We talk about the real story behind Courting - from growing up around tennis in the 90s to reimagining what the sport looks and feels like today. Courtney shares what it actually takes to build a brand from the ground up: trademarking your idea, pushing through endless design iterations, and learning when to trust your instincts. We also get into starting something new later in your career, navigating stability vs. risk, and letting go of the idea that there's a "right" timeline for success. Plus, a behind the scenes look at what it's been like working together on the collection, and why tension, honestly, and creative trust are the magic ingredients. Courting is about more than just tennis fashion, it's about community, self-expression, and doing something because you genuinely love it.

Today we are revisiting a powerful conversation from the With Whit archives with holistic psychiatrist Dr. Ellen Vora that still deeply resonates. In it, Dr. Vora unpacks the difference between "true" and "false" anxiety and how our bodies often hold the clues to what we're feeling. We get into how physical imbalances like sleep, hormones, and blood sugar can affect our mental health, and how learning to listen to our bodies can help us respond with more clarity and compassion. With so many of us navigating stress and uncertainty, this conversation feels more relevant than ever- and the perfect time to revisit.

Hello hello, we are here. We are swamped with things, crazed, and late on our episode, but we are here and doing the best we can. What's been going on with us? We get into all of it. Plus, our thoughts on what we've been watching - Love Story, more weekly Timothee Chalamet commentary, debating whether or not we want to go to the Elton John Oscars After Party, the goodness of French onion soup, and lots more from the Port-Rosenman Kitchen Table Chronicles. PS. Timmy has 24 Hours to let me know if you want to come to the Elton John After Party with me. Thank you for being here with us!

This week felt heavy, not catastrophic, not dramatic, just layered. I'm sharing about our recent surrogate embryo transfer and finding out it didn't take. Even when you know the statistics, hope quietly builds a future in the back of your mind, and each time that future dissolves, the grief is real. I talk about what it feels like to move through disappointment when your life is objectively full and beautiful, and how gratitude and grief can sit side by side without canceling each other out. I also get into the complicated tension of ambition and motherhood. Missing a camping trip with Sonny and Timmy. Launching new projects. Turning 41. Wondering how I want to be remembered - as ambitious, present, steady, joyful? Can you be all of them at once?

This episode is really about capacity and how much we can hold. Absence and abundance. Career momentum and family tenderness. Disappointment and deep gratitude. Maybe adulthood isn't about resolving the contradictions. Maybe it's about becoming spacious enough to carry them.

Hello hello, it's Date Night! We are in a limbo waiting period with our surrogate, taking things day by day and trying to stay grounded in this very lovely LA sunshine. Timmy is gearing up for a solo El Cap camping trip with Sonny and an entire grade's worth of kids and parents...so unpacking a little anxiety there. We talk about our mini credit card audit, spiraling about subscriptiong "scams", and debating money mindsets. From there, it's the usual wander: skincare routines, planking goals, New York food disappointments, and all the things the internet is obsessing over - Carolyn & JFK Jr, Summer House, AI Vegetable videos that yell at you. Come hang.

In celebration of The High Confectionary's new chocolate bar launch (!!), I'm sitting down with Sarah Fennel, founder of Broma Bakery and the baker extraordinaire who helped bring our new chocolate bars to life! Sarah is behind some of the internet's most beloved dessert recipes, but this conversation goes way beyond baking. She opens up about her complicated relationship with food growing up, how control and anxiety showed up for her as a teenager, and what recovery has actually looked like over time: not a neat "before and after", but as something layered and ongoing. She shares so openly about disordered eating, family instability, and how baking became not just a creative outlet, but a way back to joy. We get into the origin story of Broma Bakery, the food memories that shape us, and how she built a full career around dessert (and without cutting corners or stripping the pleasure out of it.) And of course, we talk about cannabis - evolving past party culture, using it intentionally, and discovering it as a tool to feel lighter, gigglier, more present, and more yourself. Plus, the BTS of creating The High Confectionary's new chocolate bars, the flavor development process, and why precise dosing changes everything - especially for women who want to enjoy without going overboard. 

This conversation is funny, honest, and joyful, a reminder that dessert and cannabis, at their best, are both about enjoyment, connection, and letting yourself feel good. We love you Sarah!

This week is a little bit of everything. From family moments and Grammy's fashion to beauty treatments, big feelings, and a rapid-fire dive into everything that's been on my mind lately. I'm sharing a real check-in after an emotional day, how I let myself feel it without spiraling and letting it consume the whole week, and why giving yourself space to process matters more than pushing through. I get into life updates, surrogate updates, tiny joys, motherhood moments, style and beauty obsessions, travel thoughts, Valentine's Day musings, and the questions I'm asking myself as I move into a hopeful, busy new chapter. It's candid, all over the board, and very much how my brain is feeling these days. Thanks for being here with me!

After a loud, full, and surprisingly joyful work trip to New York, I'm unpacking what it actually means to feel aligned, even when calendars and to-do lists feel overwhelming. From building things I genuinely love, to unlearning rigid ideas about productivity, to navigating parenthood, partnership, creative work, and big to small life moments, this episode is a good ol' rambling check-in. A reminder that not all work looks neat, not all interests need a plan, and sometimes the best things come from simply following what feels fun.
