iMomSoHard: Cutting Through the Noise by Owning Who You Are

Feeling hopeless? Nihilistic? Convinced that the human race is going to hell in the proverbial handbasket? After you’ve marinated in the dark side of parenting, head over to #IMomSoHard for the antidote. Kristin Hensley and Jen Smedley are a duo of comic moms who bring the hilarious about the real s**t that moms worry about: Spanx, trying on bathing suits, sagging boobs, lying to your kids, post-childbirth lady parts that resemble “a basset hound with its head out the window, just flapping in the wind,” and of course, wine. Lots of wine. In other words, the self-deprecating moms of #IMomSoHard have turned being weird into a comedy empire. That’s why we’re proud to call them Rare Breeds. The now-infamous “trying on a bathing suit” video that nearly broke the Internet was Kristin and Jen at their best: real, vulnerable, and funny as hell. In this episode, hosts Sunny Bonnell and Ashleigh Hansberger discuss with Kristin and Jen what it means to follow your weird, be your authentic self in a world that tells you you're not good enough, and how they've made being weird into a career. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/rarebreedshow/support

The Novogratz: Burn the Plan

Audacious Rare Breeds don’t really suffer from a lack of big, reckless, borderline ridiculous ideas. You know, because you’re like a piñata filled with wild, complicated dreams that no one else thinks can ever come true. You’ve gotten used to your close friends, siblings or parents grabbing you by the shoulders and shouting, “What the hell were you thinking?” It’s the plan that keeps you up at night. Not making a plan, exactly, but the idea that you have to have one. Your career or your business will shape your future for decades. Why restrict it based on a plan that you won’t even stick to? Why not steer the ship based on your vision and what brings you satisfaction and joy? That’s a better way to get where you want to go, both in our view and that of Cortney and Robert Novogratz. The Novogratz, as they’re known, are a husband and wife design and architecture powerhouse who seem to excel at everything, including parenting. They’ve been creating gorgeous spaces for living and playing for twenty-five years, including redesigning what seems like half of New York in their distinctive style that blends vintage and modern touches, reimagining entire city blocks; and renovating the Hollywood Hills castle where they live with their seven—yes, you read that right—children. They have books, their own retail brand, shows on Bravo and HGTV, and a pretty audacious life. But how? How does this couple basically run the world while living a life that looks like the subject of a feature in Envy the Fuck Out of Us magazine? We asked them and they told us why the audacity to burn the plan is the key to their success.
