Never Wiser

This week we go into depth about the events leading up to LeAnnas birth, how Annily almost had to become a nurse and deliver baby Jay in the living room, and of course tears are shed at some point of the episode. We'll be back in a few weeks after LeAnna recovers a little more, and our schedules line up better.

Step into our world as we share our struggles of trying to juggle careers, religious commitments, motherhood, marriage, and mental health. Quite frankly, we don't have a solution to any of it. Join our raw conversations filled with insights, laughter, and the genuine struggles of finding balance in the chaos of life.

Welcome to a special episode as we mark our podcast's one-year anniversary! Join us in this reflective conversation where we delve into the lessons learned during this journey. We discuss how the podcast has shaped our perspectives, challenged our thinking, and opened new avenues of creativity. Tune in to hear the behind-the-scenes stories, the moments that resonated with us, and the evolution of our ideas. Plus, we share exciting plans for the future, offering a glimpse into what lies ahead on this continuing podcasting adventure. Thank you for being part of our community as we celebrate one year of vulnerability and meaningful conversations. love your bffs a+l

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! In this week's episode we put a twist on love day and opted to discuss not our romantic love lives, but the love life we have with ourselves. This self love episode is a blend of inspiration, motivation, and practical advice that will guide you towards a more profound connection with the incredible person you are. We chat about the difficulties of self love, how to combat the human nature response we have which is to be mean to ourselves, and discuss our own personal struggles with self love. We laugh and cry while also giving our best advice and thoughts about how social media impacts our ability to see ourselves in a positive light.

From awkward first dates gone wrong to bizarre encounters with Tinder matches, we leave no stone unturned in recounting the weirdest, funniest, and most traumatizing moments from our dating escapades. With a healthy dose of humor and a touch of empathy, we explore the ups and downs of searching for love in the digital age. But it's not just our own stories we're sharing. Get ready to laugh, cringe, and maybe even shed a tear as we dish out juicy details from the dating lives of our friends and acquaintances. From ghosting to oversharing, no dating faux pas is too taboo for discussion.

This week we read stories from anonymous community members about times they experienced kindness from strangers, the people around them, and their loved ones. We chat about LeAnnas baby shower and new baby boys going home from the hospital outfit, and Annily shares what's keeping her same through her TTC journey.

This week we explore the art of uncovering joy in the mundane moments that often go unnoticed. Maybe it's a fun cup, a morning ritual or a solo laundry party.
