    We Started a Business with No Money, a Newborn & No Plan

    Welcome to Bite Hard - The podcast for the girls who feel everything deeply.  Episode 5: We Started a Business with No Money, a Newborn & No Plan Everyone loves talking about successful businesses. Very few people talk about what it looks like at the beginning. The sleepless nights.  The self-doubt.  The bank account that makes your stomach drop.  The clients who say no.  The moments where you wonder if you've made the biggest mistake of your life. In this episode, I'm taking you right back to where yours.haus began. Just one month after our son Paxton was born, Jack lost his job. We had rent to pay, two little kids, Christmas bills piling up, and no idea what came next. Instead of searching for another "safe" option, we decided to bet on ourselves. That's how yours.haus was born. I take you behind the scenes of everything - how we came up with the name, built our website ourselves, landed our first clients, priced our services, handled rejection, balanced running a business with a newborn and toddler, and what it's really like building something from scratch when failure doesn't feel like an option. This isn't a "how to get rich" episode. It's an honest conversation about taking risks, backing yourself when nobody else can do it for you, and building something before you feel ready. If you've ever dreamed about starting a business, changing careers, chasing an idea, or simply taking a leap you've been too scared to take… I hope this episode gives you the little push you've been waiting for. In this episode we talk about:  Starting a business after redundancy  Building yours.haus from scratch  Starting with little money  Finding your first clients  Pricing your services  Dealing with rejection  Running a business with a newborn and toddler  Balancing parenthood and entrepreneurship  Why perfect timing doesn't exist  The reality of building something from nothing Sometimes the scariest season of your life ends up becoming the one you're most proud of.

    Postpartum When You’re Running on Love and No Sleep

    Welcome to Bite Hard - The podcast for the girls who feel everything deeply.  Episode 4: Postpartum - When You're Running on Love & No Sleep This episode is for every mum who's ever wondered... "Why does everyone else seem to be coping better than me?" Because the truth is... they're probably wondering the exact same thing. In this episode, I'm opening up about one of the hardest seasons of my life. We talk about sleep deprivation, postpartum mental health, the emotional toll of having a baby with severe reflux, and what it feels like when you're surviving on broken sleep and pure love. I share the reality of caring for a baby who's in pain, the frustration of not feeling heard, the guilt of trying to split yourself between two children, and how exhaustion can quietly change every part of your life—including your relationship. We also talk about the parts of postpartum that don't get enough airtime: the loneliness, the comparison, the physical changes no one warns you about, and the moments that are so chaotic you have no choice but to laugh. This isn't an episode about having all the answers. It's about reminding you that if you're in the thick of it, you're not failing. You're surviving. And sometimes, that's more than enough. Topics discussed: • Postpartum mental health • Sleep deprivation • Infant reflux • Parenting a baby who won't sleep • Mum guilt • Life with a toddler and a baby • Relationship changes after children • Postpartum recovery • The realities of motherhood • Finding humour in the hard days If you're listening while rocking a baby, driving in silence for five minutes of peace, or wondering whether anyone else feels the way you do... This episode is for you 🤍 Follow Bite Hard: Instagram: @bitehardpodcast TikTok: @bitehardpodcast YouTube: @_courtneystubbs Because life can bite hard sometimes... but you don't have to go through it alone.

    Loss, Love & Motherhood

    Welcome to Bite Hard - The podcast for the girls that feel everything deeply.  Episode 2: Loss, Love & Motherhood This episode is one of the most personal I've ever recorded. We're talking about pregnancy, loss, motherhood, birth, and all the messy emotions that come with becoming a parent. I share the story of my first pregnancy at 20, the experience that shaped the way I viewed my body, choice, and motherhood for years to come. We talk about grief, healing, and how some experiences can stay with you long after they're over. I also take you back to the moment I found out I was pregnant with Penelope just eight months into my relationship with Jack, how we told our families, and why his reaction told me everything I needed to know about the kind of father he would become. Then we're getting real about pregnancy. The nausea, the isolation, the vomiting, the fear, the parts no one seems to post about online, and why surviving pregnancy is sometimes more than enough. I share the birth story of Penelope, from induction to holding her in my arms for the first time, and the overwhelming emotions that followed. And finally, we talk about baby number two. The heartbreak of thinking I was pregnant and finding out I wasn't, falling pregnant with Paxton, navigating Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG), the physical and mental challenges of a second pregnancy, and the birth that completed our family. This episode is for anyone who has experienced pregnancy, loss, motherhood, fertility struggles, birth trauma, overwhelming love, or simply wondered if they're the only one finding it all a little harder than Instagram makes it look. Because motherhood is beautiful. But it's also messy, exhausting, emotional, complicated, and life-changing. And I think we should talk about all of it. 🤍 Topics discussed: • Pregnancy loss & abortion • Falling pregnant with Penelope • Pregnancy anxiety & isolation • Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG) • The birth of Penelope • Paxton's pregnancy & birth story • Motherhood & identity • Relationships during pregnancy • Lessons learned through loss, love & parenthood Follow Bite Hard: Instagram: @bitehardpodcast TikTok: @bitehardpodcast YouTube: @_courtneystubbs Because life can bite hard sometimes... but you don't have to go through it alone.

    Nice Guys Finish Last (that's a good thing)

    Welcome to Bite Hard - The podcast for the girls who feel everything deeply. Episode 1: Nice Guys Finish Last (And Why That's a Good Thing) If you've ever mistaken chaos for chemistry, stayed way too long in a relationship that was breaking you, or wondered why the "nice guy" never seemed exciting enough... this episode is for you. In today's episode, I'm sharing my entire relationship history—from first loves, heartbreak, cheating, situationships, and some truly questionable life choices, all the way through to finding the healthy, stable love I never thought I'd be attracted to. We're talking about toxic relationships, self-worth, healing, learning to trust yourself again, and why being single might be one of the most important things you'll ever do. I also share some deeply personal experiences, including pregnancy loss, navigating relationships that left lasting scars, and the lessons that ultimately led me to my partner, Jack. This isn't advice from a therapist. It's a conversation from a girl who's made a lot of mistakes, learned a few things the hard way, and hopes her stories make you feel a little less alone. Because sometimes the people who break your heart teach you exactly what love isn't... so you can finally recognize what it is. In this episode: ♡ Why "nice guys finish last" is actually a good thing ♡ My toxic relationship history (yes, we're naming names... kinda) ♡ Cheating, situationships & learning the same lesson repeatedly ♡ Pregnancy loss, healing & finding your voice again ♡ The rockstar era 👀 ♡ How I met Jack and knew he was different ♡ The biggest relationship lessons I've learned so far ♡ Why healthy love feels nothing like chaos Content Warning: This episode contains discussions around pregnancy loss, abortion, emotional manipulation, infidelity, and unhealthy relationship dynamics. 🎙️ Follow Bite Hard Podcast Instagram: @bitehardpodcast TikTok: @bitehardpodcast  YouTube: @_courtneystubbs ♡ New episode every week. Because life can bite hard sometimes... but you don't have to go through it alone.
