    32 - Bleacher Creatures

    Send us Fan Mail Are your weekends completely ruled by bleachers, parking lots, and tournament schedule apps? You are definitely not alone. In Episode 32 of Becoming Burnham, Kristina and Kat dive deep into the real, hilarious, and sometimes overwhelming world of being a sports parent. From managing blended family schedules across two households to surviving 12-hour weekend tournaments without losing your mind (or your cooler), we’re covering it all. We tackle the rising costs of travel sports, sideways sideline parent behavior, burnout, and how to navigate the hard moments when your kid wants to quit.

    31 - Perimenopause and White Claws

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when the ground beneath you begins to shift? In episode 31 of Becoming Burnham, we explore the quiet onset of perimenopause, focusing on the unexplained physical changes and the realization that we were never taught how to navigate this transition. Alongside the physical evolution, we look at the social one: the unique heartache of maintaining adult friendships when you barely recognize the season of life you're in. This is a conversation about awakening to yourself and refusing to dismiss your reality as merely "stress."

    30 - The Whole First Day

    Send us Fan Mail If you've got a kid starting school this year, you already know all about that first day feeling, somewhere between excitement and low grade panic. We just lived through it ourselves, and instead of just posting a cute photo and moving on, we wanted to actually sit down and talk about what it was like. The mornings, the goodbyes, the waiting, the pickup, all of it. If you're in the middle of your own first week, we think you'll recognize a lot of this.

    29 - Back to School and Barely Ready

    Send us Fan Mail Back to school season is here, and Kristina and Kat are diving into all of it this episode. From the supply list scramble and questionable shopping trips, to the nerves of finding out who the teacher is, to trying to wrangle everyone back onto a bedtime schedule after a summer that had absolutely none, they're covering the stuff every parent is living through right now. It's not just about the logistics either, they get into how it actually feels watching another school year kick off, the excitement mixed with the little bit of grief that summer's over. If you're in the thick of it too, this one's for you. Grab your coffee and come laugh through the chaos with us.

    28 - The Generational Plot Twist

    Send us Fan Mail A while back, Kat shared the mind-blowing realization that she discovered she was adopted at thirty-six years old, leaving everyone on the ultimate cliffhanger right at the DNA test. Today, we are breaking the silence on what happened after the spit hit the tube. From mind-bending family ironies and generational adoption echoes to dealing with a chaotic biological father writing from Nevada, we are diving deep into the messy, unfiltered reality of genetic discoveries.

    27 - A Whole New World

    Send us Fan Mail Once a year, Kat and Kyle take an adults-only trip to Disney, no kids, just each other. Kristina and Kat talk about why that matters so much: prioritizing your marriage isn't selfish, it might be the best thing you can do for your family. They get into how to reconnect, how to recharge, and how to build a village at home you actually trust, so you can turn your mom-brain off for a few days.

    26 - Everything Feels Overwhelming Lately

    Send us Fan Mail Most of us were never taught how to balance being strong with actually letting ourselves rest. We learned how to push through, how to show up, how to hold it together. And for a lot of people that becomes the only setting they know. So when the overwhelm starts building, we just keep going because that's what we do. In this episode Kristina and Kat talk about what it looks like when you've been strong for so long that asking for help feels foreign, why rest only feels okay when you've earned it, and what it actually looks like to make a change that sticks. Not a whole new routine… just one intentional thing that starts protecting your energy before it's already gone. This is one of those conversations that might make you feel seen in a way you weren't expecting. If that sounds like something you need, this one's for you.

    25 - The New American Dream

    Send us Fan Mail Happy 4th of July weekend, this will be a quick one! Tomorrow marks our nation's 250th anniversary, and I am flying completely solo because Kristina is officially off the grid on vacation—meaning I have full control of the mic. Today’s episode is a raw, unfiltered reality check on what 'security' actually means in 2026. Working in corporate HR and talent acquisition, I spend my life trying to bring humanity to the corporate machine. But when you watch someone close to you give a decade of their life to a company only to have the system pull the rug out right before a holiday weekend, it hits different. Between that reality check and just taking my daughter Ella to see Hamilton in Nashville, the historical parallels are screaming at me. Pull up a chair, because we are doing a hard 'village audit' on corporate loyalty, true independence, and who actually has your back when the system defaults.
