    Maggie Smith On Nighttime Rituals, Rewiring Our Thoughts & Managing Stress (EP325)

    Joining me today for her second appearance on the show is author Maggie Smith. Maggie joined me back in November to discuss her book, You Could Make This Place Beautiful, which I'll be sure to include in the show notes. But today she's here to talk about her newest children's book, My Thoughts Have Wings.
    She wrote this children's book in hopes that kids could rewire their thoughts and develop positive thinking habits at bedtime. So today we're going to discuss the inspiration behind her book, the importance of bedtime rituals and strategies for managing stress and negative thoughts. Maggie also shares from her positivity in daily life.

    Really Very Crunchy with Emily Morrow (EP323)

    Really Very Crunchy with Emily Morrow (EP323)

    I'm not the 'crunchiest' person but I aspire to add more of a 'crunchy' touch to my life so I was thrilled to speak with Emily Morrow, creator of the hilarious Instagram account, Really Very Crunchy. Emily has garnered over two billion views and over two million followers in two years with comedy sketches about the stereotypical “crunchy” moms. Her mission? To relieve pressure from being the perfect mom and bring lightheartedness to the serious issue of toxic products, and well, people. In today's conversation we discuss: simple swaps for a crunchier lifestyle, financial considerations, balancing crunchy choices with non-crunchy ones, navigating family relationships as crunchy moms, and more...

    Beyond the Baby Years: Clearing the (Heavy) Clutter with Alissa Henry (EP322)

    Beyond the Baby Years: Clearing the (Heavy) Clutter with Alissa Henry (EP322)

    The set up of today’s conversation is slightly different than previous episodes. Alissa has been a previous guest on the podcast so we just jumped right into our topic: the struggle of infertility and the emotional process of letting go of baby items. In our conversation, Alissa discusses the mindset shift from holding onto hope to embracing gratitude for what she already has. She also emphasizes the importance of not feeling alone in this journey and encourages listeners to consider decluttering as a positive step forward. Many of you have reached out asking how to declutter those items you just can’t let go of - specifically baby items - and my hope is that this conversation provides some answers for you - even if your only takeaway is more confidently knowing that you aren’t alone.
