    028. Let Go, Let G — Detaching Your Worth From the Outcome [VIDEO]

    We are FINALLY back with a solo! This week's episode is inspired entirely by a conversation we had driving home from a shoot last week, talking about emotional attachments in business, workaholism, and questioning the foundation of what it is that really drives you.

    We start with two rando stories, followed by our fav would you rather, and as always, waste no time transitioning from laughing our asses off to getting deep in our feels.

    This episode is an important topic to discuss and gets you thinking deeper about finding ways to honor yourself so that your professional worth isn't founded upon external validation.

    We love you guys so much, see you soon!

    027. The Halfdays Pitch — Behind the Veil of Betting on Our Dreams (feat. O.Ski Films)

    027. The Halfdays Pitch — Behind the Veil of Betting on Our Dreams (feat. O.Ski Films)

    2024 is the year of making sh*t happen. Sometimes that comes with being completely delusional and going out on a whim to chase those lofty goals. 

    This is the behind-the-scenes, unfiltered story of the Halfdays Pitch (if you’re unfamiliar with it, check it out here). The three of us joined forces and decided to publicly pitch a female-owned ski brand called Halfdays and to our surprise, we got the co-founder's attention in 47 minutes. 

    Here at Work Wives, we aim to pull the veil behind it all, so while the pitch got some eyes on it, we wanted to invite you into the chaos that ensued and what it truly took to deliver the product we did. It was necessary to have our gal Ori on to tell the tale. 

    Excited to see where this takes us, thanks so much for being here! xx

    026. How Working Yourself to the Brink of Death Changes Everything (feat. Adam and Netta Swartz) [VIDEO]

    026. How Working Yourself to the Brink of Death Changes Everything (feat. Adam and Netta Swartz) [VIDEO]

    We are so excited and honored to welcome Adam and Netta to Work Wives Unscripted. Coming from two entirely different backgrounds, life led them to each other in an incredibly unique, destined-to-be way after experiencing life-changing individual experiences (to say the least).

    Netta had just finished serving two years in the Israeli army, while Adam had just healed from a Craniotomy after his brain tumor diagnosis.

    This is a story that is so much greater than highlighting two inspiring entrepreneurs, it’s a story about your internal relationship with self, experiencing a drastic “wake-up” call, navigating grief, finding profound love when you least expect it, and building a life anew. 

    We could’ve talked to them for hours as there are SO many dynamics to this story, but we hope this episode serves as a reminder to design a life that honors your spirit and your needs, finding balance in chasing your dreams and investing in the people around you. 

    Adam is the founder of Umbrla Supply, a streetwear and home goods brand that donates a portion of its proceeds to brain tumor research. 

    Netta is the founder of her new brand, Ima Urban Wellness. She’s a Holistic Nutrition Professional and Yoga Instructor, combining mind, body, and spirit practices, on a mission to help you connect with your highest, and most whole self. She offers personalized programs focused on food alchemy, movement, or the entire 360 experience.

    025. STOP PRETENDING U KNOW HOW TO DO UR OWN TAXES (feat. Our Accountant) [VIDEO]

    025. STOP PRETENDING U KNOW HOW TO DO UR OWN TAXES (feat. Our Accountant) [VIDEO]

    You guys, we're shaking our heads at ourselves that it's been nearly a month since an episode dropped, maybe that's why we named the last one "God Help Us in 2024" because to put it bluntly, we've been busting our a$$es. But you know we always come through because we're here to offer you some hot tips from our favorite and very own beloved accountant, Ed.

    He swooped down and saved us like baby birds, tucked us under his wing, and now we soar into tax season making them as enjoyable of an experience as they can be! In other words, he's incredible.

    Join us this week as he answers all of the tax season questions that we all need to know but are too afraid to ask, including things like:


    When is it a good time to consider hiring an accountant? 
    How can people best prepare before hiring an accountant? 
    Covering all things considered legit business write-offs
    Explaining the difference between an LLC and an S-Corp
    Small business owner icks that Accountants hate
    Quarterly taxes, are they required?
    What triggers an IRS Audit?
    How can we lower our tax liability?

    And SO much more. Go make that money and feel blessed to pay taxes, because it means your business is profitable!! 

    EPISODE DISCLAIMER: Correction regarding the discussion about FAMLI. The cutoff before an employer has to match the .45% is 10 employees (the episode mentioned 5) SECURE is what is a 5-employee cutoff. For FAMLI, business owners have to take .45% out of each employee’s paycheck (as the employee’s contribution) and only have to add .45% as the employer contribution when they have 10 or more employees.

    024. God Help Us in 2024 [VIDEO]

    Happy New Year!! Even though we ended 2023 joking and also semi-crying about "failed" manifestations for the year, (quotations b/c we hate that word) we're just as delulu entering 2024 but with new tactics and fun revelations. Join us this week for tips when it comes to goal-setting, our new obsession with Human Design, and building a vision board. You also get a first-hand look at the Christmas miracle we accomplished all thanks to Santa's Hung Bros.

    2024 is here and it's entirely up to us to make it a year where we look at ourselves in the mirror and say, "You fckn did it."

    If our podcast has sparked joy, brought you laughs, or even helped you feel less alone, reviews make our day and we would absolutely love to hear from you!

    Amazing resources talked about in the episode:

    023. When the Manifestation Fails [VIDEO]

    023. When the Manifestation Fails [VIDEO]

    Happy Holidays, our beloved Wives! Buckle up for the ride of this episode because it's packed with all of our favorite things that make this podcast what it is. To make it even better, it's CHRISTMAS.

    Join us for a good laugh, cry, a few minutes to pity ourselves, and then as always, end on a full circle moment with high notes of optimism and excitement for the new year.

    We break open our journals to read through and live react to all of the manifestations we wrote out for 2023. Although more manifestations didn't come through than those that did (lol) maybe it's a good lesson to not be too tied to "failure" and redirect the intention of a goal in the first place.

    Also, stay tuned for Santa's Hung Bros content on our Instagram. We love you all so much! Enjoy your holiday and we'll see you in 2024. *muah*

What did we do to deserve Jill and Kathryn?!

I have been following these girls on Instagram for a while, didn’t know they were best friends, just loved both of their work for different reasons. Seriously so talented. So you know when they launched this podcast I was ready to soak it all in! I don’t know what I was expecting but honestly it’s been better than what I expected. They give amazing insight with raw and organic delivery. They are freaking HILARIOUS and personal, and they just make me feel so much better about all my insecurities as a new female-freelance videographer. I don’t know a lot of female videographers where I live so it’s hard to find someone to confide in about all of it. These two make me feel seen and heard and just not alone. I look forward to this every week and it always seems like the topic each week is exactly what I need to hear specifically at that time.
