Don't Put That in the Podcast

Don’t Put That in the Podcast is what happens when a mother and daughter decide their private conversations shouldn’t be so private. 😂 Kerri and Ariana are 17 years apart, bringing two generations and two perspectives to real conversations about family, relationships, parenting, friendships, money, work, aging and everyday life. Expect laughs, disagreements, tangents, oversharing and stories that probably should’ve stayed between us. Nothing is perfectly polished, and someone is bound to say, “OMG… don’t put that in the podcast!” 🎙️

    Episode 8: Losing Family, Finding Freedom | Fallon’s Story (Part 2)

    What happens when becoming your true self means losing someone you love? ❤️ We’re back with Part 2 of Fallon’s story, and this conversation gets even deeper. Fallon opens up about their relationship with their father and the heartbreaking reality that they no longer have one. After growing up in a sheltered, strict Baptist environment, they share what it’s been like stepping into a world they were taught to view differently. From learning how the outside world really works to discovering what unconditional love actually feels like, Fallon is still navigating life, relationships, and the freedom to simply be themselves. We also talk about the difference between being loved for who you are and being accepted only when you meet someone else’s expectations. And Fallon has a powerful message for anyone struggling with their identity, family expectations, or fear of judgment: You deserve to live your life authentically. There are emotional moments, honest conversations, a few laughs, and plenty of things worth thinking about. This is more than a story about religion or sexuality. It’s about family, acceptance, personal growth, and finding the courage to live a life that’s truly yours. 🎙️ Don’t Put That in the Podcast — where a mother and daughter have different opinions and absolutely no shortage of things to talk about! ❤️ Haven’t watched Part 1?

    Episode 7: Raised to Believe, Learning to Be Me | Fallon’s Story (Part 1)

    What happens when everything you’ve been taught to believe growing up begins to conflict with who you really are? ❤️ In Episode 7 of Don’t Put That in the Podcast, Kerri sits down with Ariana’s girlfriend, Fallon, for Part 1 of a deeply personal conversation about faith, family, identity, and finding your place in a world you weren’t fully prepared to experience. Growing up in a strict Baptist environment, Fallon was raised with strong religious expectations and limited exposure to life outside that world. But what happens when you grow older, step outside the environment you’ve always known, and begin questioning the beliefs that shaped your childhood? In this episode, we explore: ⛪ Growing up in a strict Baptist household and the expectations that came with it 🌎 Experiencing the outside world after a sheltered upbringing ❤️ Discovering and understanding their identity as a gay person 💔 The guilt, fear, and internal conflict that can come from feeling torn between religious teachings and personal identity 🧠 Questioning lifelong beliefs while trying to hold on to the parts of faith that still matter 💕 Learning to accept yourself when you’ve spent years feeling that parts of who you are might be wrong This isn’t about attacking religion or anyone’s beliefs. It’s about hearing one person’s experience of growing up within a particular religious environment and navigating the complicated journey toward self-acceptance. And this is only Part 1. Fallon’s story doesn’t end here. We’ll continue the conversation in Part 2, with more about their experiences, relationships, identity, and what it means to find freedom while still carrying the weight of your upbringing. 🎙️ Don’t Put That in the Podcast with Kerri & Ariana Real people. Real stories. Difficult conversations. And perspectives that deserve to be heard. 💬 Have you ever struggled with expectations from your upbringing that didn’t align with who you became? We’d love to hear your experiences in the comments.

    Episode 5: The School System Isn’t Designed for Every Kid 🎒📚

    Is the school system failing our kids, or are we expecting every child to fit into a system that wasn’t designed for them? 🎒📚 In Episode 5 of Don’t Put That in the Podcast, Kerri and Ariana tackle a topic that affects just about every family: PUBLIC EDUCATION! Not every child learns the same way, moves at the same pace, or thrives in a traditional classroom. So why do we continue expecting them to? We’re talking about learning differences, kids who fall through the cracks, overwhelmed teachers, mental health, and why college shouldn’t be considered the only path to success. And let’s talk about REAL LIFE! Why do we graduate knowing things we’ll probably never use but struggle to understand taxes, credit, insurance, and everyday finances? 🤦‍♀️ We’re also asking some tough questions. How much responsibility belongs to schools? How much belongs to parents? And what needs to change so more kids have the opportunity to succeed? We’re not here to bash teachers. We’re here to question a system that doesn’t always recognize the potential in every child. 🎙️ Don’t Put That in the Podcast with Kerri & Ariana Mother and daughter. 17 years apart. Different generations, different perspectives, and absolutely no shortage of opinions! 😂 💬 WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! Do you think public schools are preparing kids for the real world?

    Episode 4: The Dad I Never Really Knew | Reconnecting as an Adult

    What happens when someone is your biological parent—but has never really been a consistent part of your life? In Episode 4 of Don't Put That in the Podcast, Ariana opens up about growing up without really knowing her biological dad, the different times they've reconnected over the years, and what those relationships have looked like at different stages of her life. Most recently, a phone call that was supposed to be just a conversation turned into more than an hour of talking-and this time, it felt good. We talk about childhood questions, complicated feelings, expectations, forgiveness, boundaries, and what it's like trying to figure out a relationship with a parent when you're already an adult. There isn't necessarily a perfect ending or an answer to what happens next. Sometimes a good conversation can simply be a good conversation—and maybe that's enough for right now. Don't Put That in the Podcast with Kerri & Ariana Mother + daughter. 17 years apart. Two perspectives. Very little filter. #DontPutThatinThePodcast #MotherDaughterPodcast #FatherDaughter #FamilyRelationships #Podcast

    Episode 3: Solo Travel — Learning to Be Alone Without Being Lonely ✈️

    Ariana did something that might not sound like a big deal to everyone—but for her, it was. She packed up, grabbed her dog, and took off for a few days completely on her own. 🐾✈️ In Episode 3 of Don’t Put That in the Podcast, we talk about Ariana’s little “soul-cleansing” adventure, why being alone has never come naturally to her, what made her finally take the trip, and what she discovered when there was nobody else there to share the experience with. We get into the difference between being alone and being lonely, the things we sometimes put off because we’re waiting for someone to go with us, and why sometimes you just have to GO. Could Kerri happily travel alone? Would Ariana do it again? And did a few days with nothing but herself and her dog actually change anything? 😂 🎙️ Don’t Put That in the Podcast with Kerri & ArianaA mother and daughter, 17 years apart, talking about real life from two very different perspectives. Follow along, subscribe, and come back next week—because Episode 4 gets a little more personal. 👀 #DontPutThatInThePodcast #SoloTravel #MotherDaughterPodcast #WomenWhoTravel #Podcast

    Episode 2: Letting Go Is Part of Loving Them

    Sometimes loving your child means making a decision that absolutely breaks your heart. ❤️ In Episode 2 of Don’t Put That in the Podcast, Ariana opens up about making the incredibly difficult decision to let her daughter move out of state to live with her dad—and what it’s been like navigating motherhood from a distance. We talk about missing milestones, learning when to hold on and when to let go, grief, mental health, and being there for your kids even when you can’t physically be beside them. This episode gets a little heavier than usual, but don’t worry… we’re still us. 😂 There are tangents, laughs, probably some oversharing, and definitely a few things that probably shouldn’t have made it into the podcast. ⚠️ CONTENT NOTE: This episode includes discussion of suicide, grief, and the loss of a young person. Please take care of yourself while listening. ❤️ If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis:
In the United States, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, available 24/7. If there is immediate danger, call 911. 🎙️ Don’t Put That in the Podcast

    Episode 1: Why Are We Doing This? 🎙️

    Well… we actually did it. 😂 Welcome to the very first episode of Don’t Put That in the Podcast! In Episode 1, we’re introducing ourselves, talking about why a mother and daughter decided starting a podcast together was somehow a good idea, what we hope this turns into, and giving you little teasers throughout about some of the topics and stories coming in future episodes. Did we stay on topic? Absolutely not. There are tangents, random stories, interruptions, lots of laughing, and just enough chaos to give you a pretty good idea of what you’re getting yourself into. We promise future episodes will be a little more focused. Or at least… we hope they will. 😂 Welcome to Don’t Put That in the Podcast with Kerri & Ariana—where apparently the things we probably shouldn’t say out loud are exactly the things we’re putting in the podcast. 🎙️🩷 #DontPutThatInThePodcast #MotherDaughterPodcast #NewPodcast #PodcastLife #RealTalkPodcast
