    Two Weeks, One Hairbrush: Mexico, a Snowstorm and Christmas Plans

    Who is he? Britt has been seeing someone, it has turned serious, and this is the first time she talks about him. It starts with a drive she will not forget. (We are still laughing.) Ana is back from Mexico and needs to explain a hairbrush. Then it is Christmas, a DM that asked Britt to "admit" something, and an elf on the shelf with a lot to answer for. We did not plan this episode. It shows. It is also the one we would send to our best friend. The Sidenote Podcast is the show you wish was just your group chat made audible. Britt Paley and Ana Vigh talk about building businesses, raising families and trying to stay friends with themselves. If this one made you laugh, send it to the friend you would text about it, and leave us a review so more of her can find us. 🤍

    Welcome to Our Group Chat: Divorce, Stepmom Life and Wanting a Baby

    On the first episode of The Sidenote Podcast, best friends Britt Paley and Ana Vigh finally hit record on the conversation they've been having in the group chat for years. Britt talks about walking out of the life she thought she'd have and building The Glow Lab on the other side of it. Ana gets honest about stepmom life, the unconditional love that somehow comes with conditions, and how lonely trying to conceive can feel. Plus a $21 burrito, mothering without a mother, and why the brave choice always costs you the version of yourself you thought you'd be. If this felt like your group chat, follow the show so you never miss a Thursday. Britt: @brittpaleyy · Ana: @anamaria.vigh
