Each episode is a chat about the things that join us together as women and humans on this earth and make you go “whoa, I thought I was the only one”, but then you find out you’re not the only one and you feel relieved.

We share stories, interview real extraordinary people, laugh, become inspired, and give permission to fail.

It’s those real, raw, vulnerable conversations that let us know that we're not alone in having so many questions about life, sustainable living, beauty, fashion, slow living, and about being a woman.

    Can We Ditch the Hustle? The Modern Woman's Balancing Act

    Can We Ditch the Hustle? The Modern Woman's Balancing Act

    Feeling the summer squeeze? In this episode of The Bella Femme Podcast, Amber and Emily chat about the pressures of Hustle Culture and wonder what ever happened to, "It Takes A Village"?! We explore the challenges of affording summer activities for kids, the rise of "quiet quitting," and the trade-offs between side hustles and self-care.



    So what's up with the clash of hustle culture and the dream of a supportive village? We explore the challenges modern women face:


    Summer Expenses: Can you afford a comfortable summer with kids while "quiet quitting"?
    Side Hustle vs. Second Job: Balancing work, self-care, and dreams of financial freedom.
    Healthcare Hurdles: How healthcare costs force parents to choose between side hustles and family time.
    The Side Hustle Conundrum: Is the constant hustle worth sacrificing personal well-being?
    Is "Clocking Out" Possible? Exploring the entrepreneurial nature of side hustles and the pressure to always be "on."
    Where's the Village? Discussing the shift from community support to the relentless pursuit of individual achievement.

    Join us for a frank conversation about finding balance, prioritizing self-care, and reclaiming the "village" spirit in a world obsessed with hustle.

    Skirts on Guys? Exploring Gendered Fashion, LGBTQ+ Fashion Wins & The Future of Inclusivity

    Skirts on Guys? Exploring Gendered Fashion, LGBTQ+ Fashion Wins & The Future of Inclusivity

    Join us for a vibrant discussion on fashion that breaks free from gender norms! We're delving into the world of gender-fluid fashion! Have you seen men rocking skirts and other traditionally "feminine" clothing? Is it a passing fad or a sign of a more inclusive fashion future?

    Fashion isn't just about clothes – it's about self-expression. Fashion's a rainbow, not a binary!

    We'll also celebrate iconic LGBTQ+ fashion moments that pushed boundaries and celebrate self-expression. From fabulous drag queens to the power suits of trailblazing women, we'll revisit some history-making style statements.

    Happy Pride + Happy Everything!
