Solo Update: Life in the Burbs15 Feb 202300:45:07

In this solo episode, I share where I’m at emotionally, what I’ve been loving, and what I miss about NYC two and a half weeks into suburban living. I talk about how our basement and backyard have truly been game changers for our family, how I did *not* get my shit together with furniture for the new house, and how I feel generally calmer in the suburbs versus the city. I also discuss the features in the house that I love (hello double vanity), things I’m still getting used to (hidden homeownership costs), and things I truly miss about the city (visiting friends and yes, the convenience of trash rooms.)

 

 

Key Takeaway / Points:

  • How the basement and backyard have been game changers for our family
  • On not getting my shit together with furniture
  • On feeling generally calmer in the suburbs vs. the city
  • On the joy of the double vanity in the bathroom
  • Things I’m still getting used to around the house
  • The hidden costs of homeownership
  • Liam’s recent sleep regression
  • Things I miss: the ease of seeing city friends and…a trash room

Sitting Down with My Sisters: Family Dynamics, Anxiety, Jealousy, and More16 Nov 202200:46:10

The episode you all have been requesting since the beginning! In this episode, I sit down with my two sisters, Lucy and Madi. We discuss respecting their varying boundaries on social media, whether our birth order accurately reflects who we are, and how our personalities differ. We also get into each of our relationships with anxiety, how our relationships with each other have evolved over time, and whether we deal with competition in our relationships and as mothers, since Madi and I have sons who are very close in age. 

 

 

Key Takeaway / Points:

  • Protecting Madi and Lucy’s boundaries on social media
  • On birth order and why we are each quintessentially the youngest, middle, and oldest children
  • How our personalities differ
  • How we are each like our mother, Cindy
  • Each of our relationships with anxiety and mental health
  • How our relationships have evolved over time, from hardships to becoming friends again as adults

The Idea of Having a Second Child07 Sep 202200:43:01

In this solo episode, I explore all of my thoughts around the idea of having a second child – purely conceptual, not a pregnancy announcement! I discuss the recent pressure I’ve felt that it’s “go time” for Kid Number Two, our Month 15 bliss with Liam, and the fear of disrupting our current groove with another baby. I also explain our surprise pregnancy with Liam, and why that’s feeding my own uncertainties about another conception and postpartum experience. Finally, I read listener stories about feeling scared of giving less to your firstborn, being much more confident as a second-time mom, and deciding to be “one and done” and grappling with feeling secure in that decision.


Key Takeaway / Points:

  • On the idea of transitioning from one to two kids
  • Feeling the sudden pressure that it’s “go time” for another child
  • Finally finding balance between work and being a mother
  • Observing friends’ timelines with having Baby Number 2
  • Our surprise pregnancy with Liam and my uncertainties about conceiving again
  • The fear of going through the emotional and physical toll of pregnancy again
  • Not wanting to disrupt the current bliss with your first child
  • Those who have felt much more confident as second-time moms
  • Those who have decided they are “one and done”
  • Why we should never pressure women to have more – or any – children

Comparison is the Thief of Joy24 Aug 202200:34:41

In this solo episode, I unpack my emotions around the concept of comparison and dive into why I (and many others) believe it is the thief of joy. I talk about my history with comparing, some recent examples of how it has gotten in the way of my happiness, and what I think causes the comparison. Specifically, I discuss the role my ego plays in it all. Full disclosure, I took an edible right before recording this episode and it definitely hits midway through, so this is also an inside look into my *edible therapy sessions* that I reference as one of the reasons why I love cannabis

Cutting Through Diet Culture Noise and Elevating the RD Industry with Culina Health Co-founder Vanessa Rissetto, RD15 Jun 202200:48:56

In this episode, I talk to Registered Dietician and co-founder of Culina Health, Vanessa Rissetto. Vanessa shares how an insatiable curiosity about nutrition inspired her to switch from a career in marketing to getting her degree in nutrition, why RDs historically haven’t gotten the recognition they deserve, and how she operates as a no-bullshit leader in health and nutrition. We talk about the inflammatory nature of diet culture, why Vanessa is sometimes a provocative voice in the industry, and how she’s determined to elevate representation in the RD world and provide accessible nutrition resources for all.


Key Takeaway / Points:

  • Thoughts on “What I eat in a day” videos
  • Postpartum weight and body confusion
  • Navigating anti diet culture as an RD
  • The difference between RDs and nutritionists
  • Being a POC dietician leader in a predominantly white space
  • How to eat to avoid blood sugar spikes
