    The Invisible Backpack

    The Invisible Backpack

    Today we are so excited to be joined by Erica Djossa who is the CEO and founder of Momwell. She is a psychotherapist specializing in maternal mental health with over a decade of experience. It's time we talk about the motherload - this invisible backpack of responsibilities that, more times than not - gets handed to mom. Erica is steadfast on helping people navigate the complexities of motherhood, and helping mothers find a version of motherhood that is sustainable for your mental health and your relationship. We also discuss how gender norms, unrealistic pressures, and socialized expectations have created an unworkable system - sometimes leading to resentment in your partner.

    So how can we create a division of labour that is manageable for you and your partner?

    Humble Badass

    Humble Badass

    Today we have the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Jessica Drake, a trailblazer in the adult industry. From her performances with Wicked Pictures™️ to her various roles as a writer, director and sexual wellness authority, jessica has solidified her status as a renaissance woman and one of the adult industry’s most illustrious stars. As a self-identified global humanitarian, it is Jessica’s time invested in healing, working alongside, and educating the public of which she is most proud.

    We explore the life & happenings of Jessica's luminous career. We also venture into the topic of Perimenopause, which is a phase before menopause that affects many people, often starting much earlier and impacting more lives than commonly realized. Menopause is a journey experienced by billions, yet shrouded in mystery and misconceptions. It’s more than just a phase; it’s a powerful transition, a natural metamorphosis that heralds a different kind of intimacy and self-exploration. 

    Let's talk about it.

    Enjoy!

    Are you ok?

    Are you ok?

    The human mind is a complex thing. The things we do. The way we think. Sometimes you have to ask - am I okay?
    Today we are chatting about the intrinsic nature of our thoughts and actions. Why do we do things the way we do - and why do we feel the way we feel? Do you find it hard to be as happy as other people? Or do you think extremely happy people are not actually that happy? The internal dialogue that plays on repeat in our brain can be a blessing and a curse at times, and can ultimately have a massive impact on your mental health and your outward view on the world. Join us today and let's talk about some of the oddity's of the human mind.

    In this episode, we touch on topics related to mental health and make light-hearted jokes as we believe this form of humor can bring us together, and act as a way of healing for many. We want to emphasize that we fully recognize the seriousness of mental health issues and the importance of seeking professional help. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, we encourage you to reach out to a mental health professional or your trusted support system.

    Your mental well-being is important to us.

    Enjoy!

    Aloha!
    As we slowly make our way back into Eastern Standard Time - we invite you to join us on a much needed unloading. We just go back from Hawaii over the weekend and we are still recovering. Today we chat about our adventure. I discuss why i'm the best version of myself when i'm around water - and Brittany shares a hilarious story about her Diamond Head hike and Riley's Global cheer competition. (Spoiler - she won!)

    Make sure to watch full podcasts on Youtube if you want to join the discussion on weather I'm blonde or not!

    Please - decompress with us, but first and foremost - let's laugh!

    We are so fortunate to be able to connect with so many people every week. We can only hope that this podcast brings a little bit more happiness to your day and/or provides you with new tools to help you in your lives.
    So we figured on today's episode, we do a little less talking, and we hand the mic to you!
    You have questions! We would to. We answer your burning questions about us, the podcast, and our life! You've asked some great questions - and you deserve answers!

    We also discuss some smaller random topics including "Tags on clothing, are they getting out of hand?" no, seriously... how long before we have the entire Oxford dictionary hanging on the back of our necks?

    As always, we are incredibly grateful to all of our listeners. We would not be able to do this without you - literally. Your loyalty does not go unnoticed.

    Thank you for joining us every week!

    Enjoy!
