    I’ve always wondered how moms, especially of multiple children, can have a thriving career and a loving family. Jamie attributes this to figuring it out as she’s goes, seeking the feeling of aliveness, and being brave enough to live a full life with a vibrant, beating pulse. I’m this episode, you’ll also hear us talk about: How it’s good to feel things—that’s how you grow.The importance of female friendships—and where/when they pick up where our partners may drop off.

    SE3: EP 033 - Eli Harwood @Attachmentnerd - How to Get Your Child to do Hard but Necessary Things

    There are hard things we should get our kids to do, and then there are the necessary hard things they have to do...but don't want to do. These types of "hard but necessarys" are different for every household. In Eli's house, her "hard but necessarys" are getting her children to brush their teeth. In my house, it's getting my son to tolerate shots after his run with environmental shots. And it changes with every season. So my question to one of the most followed licensed therapists and mother of three is, "How do we get our Children to do Hard but Necessary Things?" In this conversation we explore all the paths on the "how to," and Eli throws in tips for how to do it all with a partner that might not be on the same "conscious" parenting path as you.

    SE3: EP 032 - Amanda Rogove - A Modern Mom Using Ancient Practices

    I’ve been looking forward to this conversation with Amanda Bacon from Moon Juice on being a modern mom who also uses ancient practices. This is a really interesting practice, especially as modern convenience items and lifestyles are burgeoning before our eyes. In a world when convenience was once in a while, now it feels everyday. With illnesses, allergies, and autoimmune challenges becoming more prevalent, it begs us to ask, “What are we doing differently than just thirty years ago?”  This conversation is an exploration in applying ancient wisdom to our modern practices. What’s realistic? What’s idealistic? Amanda shares a homesteading dream of hers, and confesses that it’s possibly just a dream…because she loves both the generation and growing of her thriving business and family life. I hope you enjoy this exploration we begin to excavate for curious minds. Let us know what you thought about this episode. Please rate and review the podcast on Apple podcast.

    SE3: EP 031 - Gillian Fein - Lalalunchbox

    Gillian helps us get a little more creative with our kids lunchboxes while adding a bit more diversity into that boring, cold lunchbox. She also discusses how she handles having life threatening food allergies in a house that is “the spot” for her children and all of their friends to hang out.  Let us know what you thought about this episode.

    SE3: EP 030 - Charbel Abrache, Seylou Bakery - Baking with Whole Grains

    Just on the other side of his whole grain baking failures was a world of opportunity, waiting for him to fail enough to find it. Charbel started as a traditional pastry chef and got into whole grain pastries after working at Blue Hill Farms in NY.  I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I do. I especially love when Charbel talks about failure and how his wife, Andrea, encouraged him not to give up. It was just at his breaking point that he discovered this new/ancient art of baking, and thank heavens he did. It makes me wonder, when I feel like giving up, what could be on the other side of giving it a just few more weeks of effort? Let us know what you thought about this episode.

    SE3: EP 029 - Danika Brysha - Raising Healthy Children Without Projecting Our Past Body and Eating Challenges Onto Them

    I finally get a chance to sit down and chat with Danika Brysha, founder of Self-Care Society and treasured model friend of mine from “back in the day.” Danika and I have both overcome so many body challenges—eating disorders, orthorexia, body Dysmorphia and more. Now, in our new season of life as mothers, we dive into how we’re navigating raising healthy children without projecting our past body and eating challenges onto them. It’s a tricky topic and I hope our conversation gives you a few takeaways to help you along your journey.  A couple of my favorite things in this conversation are: When Danika talks about intuitive eating and how this philosophy and approach to health could be improved uponBody and food neutrality, and Getting back in touch with our bodiesLet us know what you thought about this episode.

    SE3: EP 027 - Ingrid D'Aquin - Befriending Imposter Syndrome

    Oh man. Or should I say, oh mama? Ingrid D'Aquin is my personal life coach. In this episode, we jump right into the challenges modern moms have once they become mothers. Choosing work paths as a mother--navigating work from home, staying at home, or working outside the home. We talk about the importance of sisterhood, not competing with other women, and letting your spouse or partner parent in their own way. My favorite part of this episode is towards the end, when Ingrid talks about doing what matters to you. Not Instagram or an algorithm. Because we don't die with our followers. We die with the memories we made and the energy we created.  Note to listener: There are F* bombs and profanity in this episode. They felt essential so I left them in. If littles are around, you may want to pop your earbuds in. If you haven't already, please consider leaving a review for this podcast on Apple Podcast.
