In this episode, we talk about the quiet, subliminal messages we tell ourselves about what we wear, and how challenging them can change the way we see ourselves.

In this episode, my mom and I talk about the days of watching live TV as a family and how much content has increased in volume so quickly. And yet, we still need to, and want to, produce more media, like this podcast.

In this episode, my mom and I talk about how jean sizes mess with the way we see ourselves and how perceptions of “healthy” and “skinny” have shifted across generations. I also share a personal story about trying to lose five pounds for a wedding…and how it completely backfired.

In this episode, my mom and I use the month of May as an opportunity to rethink what it really means to show up for friends and family. There’s so much pressure to express support through expensive gifts, or just cold hard cash, but what about the smaller, more meaningful ways to be there for each other?
We share fresh ideas for showing up that don’t revolve around spending money, and explore how simple acts of support are more important than ever in our increasingly disconnected culture. Because who doesn’t need a little love while running a half marathon in the middle of winter?!

My mom and I couldn't help but take you along on a rant we had about the giving and receiving of feedback in our culture. We don't actually put value on it, but expect it everywhere, all the time.
Although we offer wise words, we don't expect your feedback, but we appreciate it if you feel compelled to share with us. Thank you for listening.

Jaynanne thinks it’s just about going outside to be with nature and Mary thinks it’s about taking the time to take care of something. What do you think?

In this episode, my mom and I bring it back to one of our favorite topics—clothes! We dive into how work attire has evolved over the decades (and even in just the last few years) and what your outfit says about you. This episode was recorded after a workday where I, for once, wore sweatpants. Was I cranky because of the sweatpants, or just because? You can decide. Thanks for listening! - Jaynanne

I’m not going to lie—this episode is all over the place. But no matter where we go, we keep coming back to one thing: how much we’re missing real connection and community. And honestly? Hyper-consumerism is making it worse. So, how do we fix it?

In this episode, my mom and I dive into all things clothes and how we have way too much of it. I’m guilty of having bins and bins and my mom has found a way to turn every room into a closet. We discuss how media and art constantly highlight our overconsumption of clothes, yet the industry keeps selling and we keep buying. Even Grandma chimes in (via text), reminiscing about how they only bought clothes for the kids’ church outfits.

In this episode, my mom and I talk about the importance of kindness to others. Simple acts of kindness can feel lost in the noise of negativity that floods our minds through the media. But showing kindness—even on the days when we struggle to give that same grace to ourselves—is underrated, and we’re here to bring it back.

After a much-needed break, my mom and I are back—and, honestly, we're a little angry about it. Just kidding! But we are diving into the emotion of anger, what it brings up for us, and why this time of year is actually a great time to reflect on it.
Give it a listen for some laughs (spoiler: I get angry with mom).
