    Dear Primas, Let's Facetime

    🎙️ Dear Primas, Let's FaceTime… 📱💌 Primas, answer the FaceTime because we have THINGS to discuss. 😂 This week feels less like a podcast episode and more like one of those FaceTime calls where you start with, "Okay, what are you watching right now?" and somehow end up talking about books, kids, sauna strangers, and everything that happened this week. Kristi and Clari are catching up on what we're currently watching plus the books we've been reading and listening to lately. 📚📺 And then… we need to discuss the sauna. 😂 From discovering that sauna reading might actually be the ultimate sweet escape to some very interesting people-watching moments, apparently the sauna has become its own source of entertainment. We're also catching up on the kids, their latest activities, balancing screen time with getting outside, and what family life is looking like lately. Basically, this episode has no agenda, just the kind of conversations you'd have when your prima calls and says, "Wait, I have to tell you something…" In this episode: ✨ What we're watching right now 📚 What we're reading + listening to 🔥 Why sauna reading might be elite 😂 Our latest awkward/funny sauna encounters 👀 Shows we have THOUGHTS about 💌 Kid updates + family life lately ☕ Finding little pockets of downtime in everyday life So grab your cafecito, put your headphones in, and pretend we're all on FaceTime together. And primas—we need recommendations! 👇🏼 What are you watching or reading right now? 💌 If you don't have a prima to FaceTime, you have us.

    Dear Sweet Escape

    🎙️ Dear Sweet Escape ☀️💌 Primas… can we talk about the sweet escapes that keep us going? Whether it's a solo Target run, an evening walk, a workout, a coffee in silence, or just getting out of the house for an hour, sometimes the smallest breaks make the biggest difference. In this episode, Kristi and Clari are catching up after a busy summer filled with travel, family visits, kids' activities, and trying to find a rhythm that works. We're talking about the routines that help us stay grounded, the flexibility motherhood constantly demands, and why communicating with our partners about what we need isn't selfish, it's necessary!! We also chat about: ✨ Creating routines that actually work for your family ✨ Getting out of the house with kids (even when it's a whole production) ✨ Why moms need breaks before they reach their breaking point ✨ Summer schedules, family visits, and balancing everyone's needs ✨ Finding little moments of self-care without the guilt If you've ever ended the day thinking, "I feel completely gassed," or wondered how other moms manage to pour into everyone else while still taking care of themselves... this conversation is for you! So grab your cafecito ☕, take a deep breath, and come hang out with your primas! Because sometimes your sweetest escape is simply knowing you're not doing this alone. 💌 👇 We'd love to hear from you in the comments: What's your version of a "sweet escape"? A walk? Reading? Golf? A Target run? Tell us! We're always looking for ideas. 🤍 🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

    Dear Quarterly Check-In

    🎙️ Dear Quarterly Check-In 💌 Primas… consider this your official quarterly life update. 😅☕ In this episode, Kristi and Clari are catching up on all the things the good, the messy, and the very real. From unexpected illnesses and trying to survive the never-ending germs that come with kids, to fitness goals, family life, and figuring out how to take care of ourselves while taking care of everyone else. We're sharing what's been working, what's not, and the little things currently getting us through this season. Of course, we also dive into what we're watching, reading, and obsessing over lately because you know the group chat always ends up there. 📚📺 Think of this episode as grabbing a coffee with your primas and saying, "Okay, what's been going on with you lately?" Because sometimes life doesn't need a big theme or a perfectly wrapped lesson. Sometimes you just need a check-in. So grab your cafecito ☕ and come catch up with us. 💕 If you don't have a prima to send a life update to, we're your primas. 💌 Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Life Updates 01:44 Dealing with Illness and Family Sickness 06:45 Fitness Goals and Motivation Challenges 13:46 Self-Care, Routines, and Personal Growth 19:40 Entertainment Picks: Shows, Books, and More 29:22 Balancing Motherhood and Personal Time 38:59 Reflections on Life, Sleep, and Self-Improvement 48:39 Closing Remarks and Future Plans    Resources Libby App for free books and audiobooks - https://libbyapp.com Kalahari Resort in Round Rock - https://www.kalahariresorts.com Ellen Hildebrand's books - https://www.ellenhildebrand.com Schitt's Creek on Netflix - https://www.netflix.com/title/80044950 Handmaid's Tale on Hulu - https://www.hulu.com/series/the-handmaids-tale-3f4f7b4f-4f4f-4f4f-8f4f-4f4f4f4f4f4f Vibration Plate on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/s?k=vibration+plate Raven Hood series by Kristi Delafuente - https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Raven+Hood+series

    Dear Chat, How Does One Make Friends...As An Adult?

    🎙 Dear Chat, How Does One Make Friends…As An Adult? Primas… why does making friends as an adult feel harder than dating?? 😅 In this episode, Kristi and Clari are getting real about something we don't talk about enough: how to actually make friends in this season of life. Between motherhood, busy schedules, and just being a little more… aware (and maybe a little more tired), putting yourself out there can feel awkward, intimidating, and honestly, a little vulnerable. We're sharing our own experiences the good, the awkward, and the "should I text her or is that weird?" moments along with practical ways to meet people, build genuine connections, and find your people in a world that doesn't make it as easy as it used to be! Because friendships don't just happen like they did when we were younger! They take intention, effort, and sometimes a little courage. If you've ever thought: "Why is this so hard?" "Where do I even meet people?" "Is it too late to make new friends?" Primas… this one is for you. 💕 If you don't have a group chat like this yet, we're your primas 💌 Grab your cafecito ☕ and let's figure it out together.

    Dear Millennial Mom Behavior

    Primas… can we talk about the fact that we're señoras now?? 😅 Like… we grew up in the 90s with dial-up internet, LimeWire downloads, and parents yelling "get off the house phone," and somehow now we're the ones packing lunch boxes, scheduling dentist appointments, and reminding our kids to drink water. In this episode, Kristi and Clari unpack the very specific species that is the millennial mom. The moms who grew up riding bikes until the streetlights came on… but now track their kids' location, Google/ChatGPT every symptom, and send calendar invites for playdates months in advance. We talk about how technology shaped our generation, the social media habits we swore we wouldn't have (but somehow do), and the parenting styles that make millennial moms… well, millennial moms. From nostalgia about our childhood to the way we're raising our kids today, this episode is a funny, honest look at the behaviors that define this era of motherhood. Because let's be honest, we're still youthful, still figuring it out, and just trying to raise good humans while remembering where we put our caffeine. ☕ If you're a 90's baby turned señora, this one is for you. 💅Share this with a 90's baby who is now someone's mom 😅 Grab your cafecito and come laugh with your Primas.
