I'm a Mom?!
Becoming a mom is the single most transformative experience a woman could go through. This is a podcast that I wish I heard when I got pregnant. We talk about how priorities, finances, values, and lifestyle, change - a lot. At least, it did for me. I am not your typical blonde, blue-eyed, fit, young, mormon mom influencer with 5+ kids (I just have 2), so maybe you can relate to me a little more....!
This is a real, raw, and relevant podcast for moms everywhere to be encouraged, feel seen, informed, and have some laughs on the way!

EP 13 - Happy New Year & Closing Out Season 2
It is totally normal and okay, and in my opinion, natural and instinctual that moms change their political views after they become moms. I went from progressive to conservative, and I know this is common. It's okay to change your mind!
