    Becoming the Grown-Up: Parenting, Panic, and Finding Peace in the Chaos

    In this episode, the hosts get real about what it looks like to grow up, raise kids, and still try to have a life. They swap stories about New York nights out, messy family dynamics, and the emotional whiplash of moving from “I’ll figure it out later” to “I’m responsible for everyone.” They unpack how hard it is to hold big dreams while juggling bills, kids, and mental health, and talk about the small rituals and boundaries that keep them sane. At its core, this is an honest conversation about becoming the adult you needed, without losing the parts of yourself that still want fun, freedom, and possibility.

    Turkey, Tantrums & Two-Lane Roads: Surviving Thanksgiving with Kids

    In this episode, Anissa & Jess channel full debrief on Thanksgiving like it’s a post-game press conference. We’re talking: traveling with small children who behave like tiny drunk adults, family dynamics that could use a referee, and what it’s really like doing the holidays in the middle of nowhere with two-lane roads and farm vibes. They get into the real parenting stuff—why positive reinforcement actually works better than yelling, how to survive travel with kids without faking your own death, and why “having it all” during the holidays is usually code for “I cried in the bathroom between courses.” If you’ve ever tried to juggle nanny search, family expectations, rural living, and tiny humans hopped up on sugar and no sleep, this episode will make you feel wildly seen, slightly attacked, and very much not alone.

    Hot Mess, Warm Hearts: Relationships, Red Lights & Raising Tiny Dictators

    Jess and Anissa are back in the chaos closet, pretending podcasting is self-care while their kids bang on the door. In this episode, they spill on relationships, parenting, and how they’re using wellness tools like red light therapy and sarcasm to stay alive through the holidays. They get into the messy reality of modern couples: trying to grow as humans without breaking up, setting boundaries without feeling like the bad guy, and keeping the spark alive when you both fall asleep at 9:30. There’s talk of Thanksgiving expectations (spoiler: keep them low), finding joy in tiny moments, and why humor might be the most underrated form of therapy. If you’re a parent, in a relationship, or just trying not to lose your mind at a family gathering, this one’s basically free group therapy—with better jokes. Keywords: podcasting, relationships, self-care, red light therapy, parenting, personal growth, Thanksgiving, humor, couples, boundaries, wellness
