Mom Guilt, Mat Time, and Mid-Dirty Martinis
#83: This one’s got range, y’all. 😅 In this solo episode, I’m breaking down everything from my new dirty martini obsession (move over, Manhattans) to the raw spiral I had when my son broke his arm when I wasn’t there. We’re talking full-blown panic attack on the freeway, mom guilt that sucker-punched me, and how I navigated it all while driving to speak at a business conference. I also share what eight months of jiu-jitsu have taught me (besides how to choke someone out in public for lying ab...

Marriage, Money, and the Messy Middle ft. Brandee Gaar
#82: Brandee Gaar breaks down how she built a leading Orlando planning firm, survived the COVID zero-events era, and accidentally launched Wedding Pro CEO via daily 10-minute lives and a Clubhouse “morning show.” We talk about the years that looked “successful” but paid nothing, the summers that almost sunk them, her husband quitting (twice going back to serve to keep lights on), and why their standing Friday money/ops meeting is non-negotiable. We also hit mom guilt, kids who truly don’t rem...

The Sex Talk You Should’ve Gotten in Church, But Didn’t ft. Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers
#81: Sex. Shame. Spirituality. We’re going there today. In this conversation with sex therapist and researcher Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers, we unpack the toxic effects of purity culture and how the shame we were taught about sex, bodies, and desire continues to shape us as adults, parents, and partners. Tina doesn’t hold back. She breaks down how abstinence-only education fueled a generation of disconnection, the difference between modesty and moral panic, and why so many of us feel broken when...

How to Start Running (Without Being a Little Bitch) ft. Josh Hedden
#80: In this episode, I'm joined (once again) by my husband Josh, who just came off a 100-mile race attempt at Leadville 3 weeks ago that didn’t go exactly as planned. We’re breaking down what life has been like since the race, how he's processing the disappointment of a DNF (Did Not Finish), and what he's learned as both an athlete and a husband. He also breaks down beginner tips for anyone who wants to start running but feels intimidated by the “go hard or go home” culture + how to ge...

The 100-Mile Race That Shattered My Comfort Zone
#79: We just got back from Leadville, Colorado last week after 16 hours in the car, and 62.5 miles of watching my husband chase the craziest goal of his life… and honestly? I’m not the same. In this solo episode, I’m unpacking the raw truth of what it felt like to watch Josh take on the Leadville 100, how it shifted something deep inside of me, and why I’ve decided I’m done being mediocre. I talk about what it means to push yourself physically to change everything mentally, and why failure mi...

Jodi Wellman, author of You Only Die Once and founder of Four Thousand Mondays, joins me for a conversation that’s as deep as it is energizing. We talk about how grief, boredom, and near-death wake-up calls (literal or not) can be the ultimate invitation to actually live your damn life. We cover: — What it means to live like you mean it — Why “someday” is a dangerous trap  ...

The Genius Is You (But You Gotta Sell It) ft. Helen Thacker
#77: Helen Thacker has been in business longer than most of us have been using Instagram, and she’s got thoughts. After 22 years of entrepreneurship, two six-figure businesses, and raising two boys, Helen’s no stranger to reinvention, risk, and real-life challenges (hi, back injury and burnout). In this episode, we talk about the messy parts of building a business while raising a family, how intuition and work ethic can coexist, and why so many women are playing small when they know they’re m...

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Sara Reardon (also known as The Vagina Whisperer) to talk all things pelvic floor health, pain with sex, birth recovery, body awareness, and her new book Floored.

Pregnant? Maybe. Busy? Definitely.
#75: Look, I’m not saying I am pregnant… but I’m also not saying I’m not. 😅 In this solo episode, I’m catching you up on everything life’s been throwing at me lately, from the unexpected pregnancy scare that had me spiraling (with Google searches and ovulation math) to reflecting on marriage, parenting, and what the hell it means to try and do it all well. I’m getting real about what this next phase of life and business actually feels like: chaotic yet grounded and weirdly stable. Inside the ...

Big Therapy Energy ft. Ally Hoffman
#74: This episode might as well come with a co-pay. I’m joined by the incredible Ally Hoffman—licensed therapist, founder of Safe Space Healing Collective, and the type of human who lives and breathes what she teaches. With a background that spans music industry chaos, PR, and a full-circle moment into the therapy chair (as both client and practitioner), Ally brings a no-BS approach to healing that’s grounded, real, and refreshingly relatable. We go deep on what it actually means to do “the w...

Connection Isn’t Complicated (We Just Make It Weird) ft. Kate Terentieva

In this episode, I’m joined by Kate Terentieva, founder of Off The Record—a connection card game built to help you skip the surface and get straight to the good stuff. We talk about everything from growing up as the go-to “deep chat” friend to building a product that’s helping people have conversations that actually matter.

Doing the Inner Work... and Still Getting Sh*t Done ft. Christiana Garza
#72: This week, I’m sitting down with Christiana Garza—mom, mentor, co-founder of Her Society, and the kind of woman who’s built a business and a life with both backbone and soul. We’re talking about what it really means to show up for yourself in motherhood, in business, and in the messy middle. From losing her dad at 24 and becoming his caretaker, to moving across the world and facing identity shifts head-on, Christiana brings the kind of honesty that doesn’t just hit—it heals.

My Husband’s Running 100 Miles (Literally, Not Metaphorically)
#71: We’re back with an episode that’s part love story, part therapy session, and part "why would anyone do that to themselves?"—and it’s all happening from a hotel room in Amarillo, Texas (cue the romance). In this episode, I sat down with my husband, Josh Hedden, to talk about his completely casual plan to run 100 miles through the mountains. Yes, on purpose. We get into the gritty stuff—how he went from “running is dumb” to training for an ultramarathon, what it’s really like prepping your...

Grief, Growth & Getting Back Up ft. Mikayla Chaparro
#70: Mikayla Chaparro didn’t just pivot—she rebuilt. The last time Mikayla came on the podcast, she was walking through the raw, immediate aftermath of losing her son, Valor. It was tender, heavy, and still too fresh to fully unpack. In this episode, Mikayla returns—still grieving, still growing, and now stepping into a completely new season of life. We talk about what has shifted in the last few years since, not just in her business and motherhood journey, but in who she is as a woman. This ...

You Don’t Need Brand Photos—You Need Balls
#69: In this solo episode of Ironically Serious, I show up with a black eye, a pile of business hot takes, and absolutely zero apologies. (If you’re watching the video version—yes, I really did record this with a full-on face bruise.) I’m diving into how Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has totally shifted my mindset—physically, mentally, and emotionally—and how it’s made me show up differently in my business (and life). Spoiler: discovering your inner grit is cheaper than another branding course. Then we...

What They Don’t Tell You About Building a Community ft. Amanda Smith
#68: What do you get when a former teacher builds a national women’s community, plans a conference for hundreds, and somehow still manages school pickup? You get Amanda Smith. In this episode, I sit down with the founder of Dallas Girl Gang to talk about what it really looks like to grow a brand, rally a community, and keep your sanity intact while doing it. We’re unpacking Amanda’s leap from classroom to CEO, how she created one of the most recognizable women’s networks in Texas, and the beh...

29, Flawed, and Figuring Shit Out
#67: I took a little break (not from podcasting, just from pretending I have my life together) to enjoy spring break with my kids, and now I’m back with thoughts. I’ve officially entered my last 6 months of my 20s, and naturally, I’m deep in reflection mode. In this solo episode, I’m taking a look back at the last decade—what I’ve learned, what I’ve let go of, and what I’m bringing into this next chapter (hint: fewer energy drinks). In this episode, we get into: → A mini spring break re...

Getting Choked Out for Personal Growth
#65: I’ve been on a kick lately (literally)—because somehow, I signed myself up for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. And let me tell you, nothing humbles you faster than getting choked out by a 13-year-old. In this solo episode, I’m diving into: → Why I decided to start rolling around on gym mats with strangers and how it’s shifting my mindset (spoiler: it’s more than just learning how to choke someone out) → The real reason setting medium goals is keeping you stuck (yes, I said it) → How pushing through...
