The great Nora Ephron (think: When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless in Seattle…duh!) used to say “everything is copy” — meaning that everything that happens to any of us in life is fair game to write about, dream about, and talk about… and we agree. Enter: Everything is Copy, a podcast by Susannah Hutcheson & Audrey Skelton, two copywriters who said peace out to our previous careers in publishing and teaching to do what we want for a living instead.

    #35: Our Personal, Professional & Rapid-Fire Goals for the New Year

    Most ~goal-setting practices~ are way too time consuming if you ask us… One or two hours to write down all our hopes, dreams & desires for the new year? It’s a no for us (like seriously, we do not have the time). Today we are sharing our own lil’ goal-setting workshop that LITERALLY took us each 10 minutes to complete—but gave us sooo much clarity and direction heading into 2023.  We’re sharing some things we’re thankful for from this year, plus the things we’d like to leave behind in 2022, as well as our personal, profesh, and relationship goals for 2023—and some fun ones like a trip we want to take, habit to try, reading goal, word of the year & more! Get your pen out and jot down your own answers to these prompts if you want to feel a little lighter going into next year! We LOVE an efficient moment to get our thoughts and goals organized & can’t wait for you to join us for this one!

    #33: A Different Approach to Buying Gifts for People That They’ll ACTUALLY Love & Use (+ Our Hilariously ~Us~ Holiday Wishlists)

    Do you have that person on your gifting list who’s *impossible* to shop for? Orrrr, maybe you just opt out of gift giving when you get stumped on what to get people?  Hiiiiii, Audrey here, and that second one is ME. My family members have low-key flagged me as a gift hater and will all but apologize when sending me something in the mail, lol (but seriously, where are my fellow anti-clutter girlies?!). The thing is, I DO appreciate a meaningful gift… I’m just not so great at picking them out for others. Luckily, Susannah is literally the most thoughtful gift giver I know—she always gets her loved ones things that are practical, personal & meaningful (without spending crazy $$$ on a bunch of people in her life). I asked her all the questions I (selfishly) wanted to know about her process for picking out gifts, like how she comes up with such creative ideas that don’t murder her wallet, how she shops for people who have everything they need, her thoughts on gift cards, and her go-to gift ideas that pretty much anyone would love.  Plus, I’m sharing an easy formula for buying kid gifts AND we both share our top 5 things on our own holiday wishlists (that are SO us, it’s laughable). If you still have holiday shopping to wrap up (pun intended 🎁), do NOT miss this episode!

    #32: Susannah Interviews Audrey on Marriage, Managing Motherhood & Business, and Changing Everything for Your 21-Year-Old-Self

    And we are back AGAIN with another in-the-fam interview — with Audrey in the hot seat this week! If this is your first time listening or you don’t know Aud yet, get ready. Audrey manages to be one of those people that you could tell everything to (and want to), and is the most put-together, down-to-earth, hilarious person around. She lives in Sonoma County with her husband and son, is expecting a new bb any week now, and is a copywriter, a home chef, a wine lover, a fellow online shopping fanatic, and Sus’s partner in crime in all the things. Audrey and Sus dove deep into everything from Audrey’s corporate villain origin story and her #toxicera as a 21-year-old all the way to finding true peace at 31 and managing things like motherhood, marriage, and business…. and there are a few teary moments, too. We can’t wait for you guys to listen! Follow Susannah: @susiebhutch / susiebco.com Follow Audrey: @audskelton / audreyjoann.com

    #31: Audrey Interviews Susannah on Finding True Confidence, Chasing Dreams & Making 10-Year-Old You Proud

    It’s us! We’re back! Well, we’ve been here – but after a busy few weeks hosting the MOST FUN guests on the show, we’re bidding November farewell with just an Aud x Sus episode… but not just any A x S ep. We’re changing things up by taking turns interviewing each other so you can get to know each of us even better… And Susannah is the lucky one in the hot seat first this week! If you’re new here, Susannah is a brilliant copywriter out of Dallas who is beyond witty, easygoing, and genuine— and she has perfected the art of capturing, polishing, and showcasing her clients’ unique voices in a highly strategic yet approachable way. She’s a BIG cycle class girly, loves her oat milk lattes, has the cutest dog named Holly, influences her friends (i.e. Audrey) to buy way too many things, can literally read a book in 2 hours, and travels more than anyone… yet doesn’t visit Audrey in Northern California NEARLY enough. But we digress… Sus shared so many fun tidbits about her journey from journalist to teacher to copywriter/business owner, what she’d tell others starting their own business, her goals for the next year, tea on her dating life & so many other fun facts and stories! We hope you love this one! Let us know what you think when you listen! Follow Susannah: @susiebhutch / susiebco.com Follow Audrey: @audskelton / audreyjoann.com

    What the eff happened to dinner parties? Seriously? They were a THING in our parents’ day, but the art of fun, elegant dinner parties has sorrrrt of fizzled out.

The gals behind the hosting company Hauste are making throwing a killer party (small or large) easy, beautiful & exciting again… and showing the rest of us in our 20s/30s how to host with confidence. Whether you’ve felt like you don’t have it in you to host special gatherings (like Audrey) or you’re easing into your own hosting era (like Susannah), we promise, you’ll feel inspired to throw a tablescape together, whip up a fav recipe (or even just some cocktails!) & create a vibe to make memories with your loved ones in your home… JUST NEVER ON PAPER PLATES K? (You’ll hear allll about this hot take in the ep. 😂) They share their best tips to make it so simple to host a dinner party, leave perfectionism behind, and be your extra self – tablescapes, themed playlist & all. Honestly, couldn’t be us realizing this week’s episode ALL about hosting is coming out the actual day before *THE ULTIMATE DINNER PARTY* (aka, Thanksgiving). Y’all know we don’t have our stuff together that much to intentionally plan it like this, buttttt whether you’re hosting the holiday this year or just showing up with stretchy pants – you’re gonna want to tune into this ep. Promise. Like, we don’t play favorites but this might be our favorite episode yet?? Can’t wait to hear what you think! Let us know when you listen!
