This month's episode is a little different from our usual tone, because life as we know it suddenly has a different tone. Alana & I are sharing what life is like as we are experiencing this worldwide event through our own personal lenses. We're sharing what's working for us during this time, what's not working, and what we're loving. We really got vulnerable & practical in this episode, we hope that it will help you navigate your own thoughts and feelings today. Wishing you health and peace, friends!

We'll be the first to admit it: Making new friends as an adult is hard. Heck, simply maintaining old friendships is hard.Today we sat down with friendship researcher (Yep! It's a thing!) Noelle Rhodes for an honest, refreshing, and PRACTICAL conversation about the importance of female friendships. If you're struggling to find true connection or you find yourself settling for "virtual friendships" over real-life friendships, you don't want to miss this episode!

Can we be honest? Finding, building, & maintaining healthy, thriving friendships seems a lot harder in adulthood. But one thing's for sure, we ALL need friendship in our lives. It's a form of human connection, self care, and fun! That said, it's often easier said than done. We get it. If you're feeling frustrated or discouraged by this area of your life, then come close and listen in, sister, because we're getting real about what it takes to create, nurture, and maintain lasting healthy friendships.

Last month on the podcast we explored the theme of Comparison, as we shift gears into this month's theme of Friendship, we can't think of a better transition than THIS week's episode! Pursuing your passion can feel lonely at times but one of the best ways to combat comparison is to find your people, connect with them, & support them. One way we do that is through a mastermind group. Curious about what a mastermind is or how it works? Today we're introducing y'all to the members of our mastermind group.

Well it's been minute since we've recorded a proper behind the scenes episode, but don't worry, we're covering it all in this ep! Alana & Amber each share one thing that's working, one thing that's not working, and one thing they're loving so far in 2020! We're including all the fun links below so you don't have to worry about FOMO, but mostly we just hope these episodes create a bit of space for you to consider what your answers to these questions would be!

One of the reasons we created this podcast is because we believe that leaning into our God given gifts and strengths truly helps us become better mothers. Today on the podcast we sat down with Becky Keife, author of No Better Mom for the Job to discuss how we can parent with confidence, avoid the pitfalls of comparison, celebrate our individual strengths as as a mom. Ladies, if you find yourself stuck in negativity, insecurity, or overwhelm, do not miss this one! You are the best mom for this job!
info_outlineWe say this all the time around here: YOU ARE MORE THAN ONE THING.
Whether you find yourself stepping into a new season like motherhood, opening a business, or moving towards a dream in your heart, it can become tricky to navigate holding this new thing that takes up so much of your heart along WITH all the other hats you wear in a day.
Today we sat down with Tayler Paterson, a mama in that tender, transitional season of raising a little one while going after her big dreams. Tayler is an American who fell in love with a Kiwi and moved to New Zealand to build a life with him. (Y'all. They met on Instagram and you have to listen in to hear Tayler share their story because it is THE ACTUAL BEST!)
In 5 years they've walked through a lot of big transitions- they've gotten married, had a baby, opened a coffee business, and they each have other jobs they do on the side. We loved Tayler's honest and helpful insight on how we as mamas can stay sane as muli-passionate women, mother wholeheartedly, and hold multiple dreams at once.
