  • In this solo episode, I share my experiences and insights on managing solo parenting while Mark was away for five days.

    I discuss the challenges and reflections I had during this period, emphasizing the importance of connecting with your partner before they leave, setting yourself up for success, having support systems in place, and planning fun activities for the kids.

    I also highlight the significance of maintaining low expectations, not burdening your partner with issues they can't fix while away, allowing space for integration upon their return, and intentional reconnection. I offer seven practical tips for surviving when your partner is out of town, making this episode a valuable resource for anyone in a similar situation.

  • In this episode, Bri converse's with Lindsay Lockett, exploring her journey through nervous system healing and trauma. Raised in a challenging environment within evangelical Christianity, Lindsay reveals how her background of emotional neglect and abuse shaped her life. Over time, she began questioning her deeply held beliefs, leading to a deconstruction of her faith. Her difficult journey through severe anxiety, PTSD, and ultimately healing involved therapy and an exploration of emotional patterns inherited from her mother. Lindsay shares tools for nervous system regulation, the importance of awareness, and improving relationships, like her marriage, by addressing abandonment triggers.

  • In this episode, we dive into a deeply personal and enlightening conversation about parenting, mental health, and the power of community. We start with an unexpected connection made through our children that blossomed into a meaningful friendship, leading to a conversation on a critical article from the US Surgeon General about the mental health and well-being of parents. We explore the stress parents face today, discuss why this generation feels more pressure, and reflect on how societal changes, such as post-COVID isolation, are contributing factors.

    We also break down the article’s proposed solutions—paid family leave, childcare improvements, and mental health investments—and offer our perspective on why they may fall short. Drawing from our own experiences and work as relationship and intimacy coaches, we discuss the importance of deep community connection and the role it plays in supporting mental health for both parents and children.

    Key Topics Discussed:

    The challenges of making new friendships as adults and parentsUS Surgeon General’s advisory on parents’ mental health and why stress levels are higher todayThe lack of community and support for modern parentsHow societal and generational shifts have impacted the parenting experienceProposed solutions for parental stress and why they might be missing the markThe importance of investing in both mental and physical healthThe critical role of relationships in breaking cycles of divorce and disconnection for future generations

    Takeaways:

    Parenting today is filled with unique stressors, and the lack of community exacerbates mental health challenges.Societal shifts and technology have made it harder for parents to feel supported, but by prioritizing connection and deep support systems, we can break negative cycles.Solutions to these challenges go beyond paid leave or mental health investments—they require a fundamental shift in how we nurture communities and support parents through their journey.

  • In today's first solo episode, Brianna answers a common question they get from clients & listeners, which is: "what conversations should my husband/partner and I have prior to having a baby?"

    Sure there's talks of picking out baby's name, what to put on the registry, birth plan, etc, but what about what comes AFTER having the baby? What does life look like? How will each partner navigate their new roles & keeping up with the demands of everyday life?

    THESE are the conversations that are equally if not more important to have. By doing so each partner will feel more supported, it can help elevate a considerable amount of stress and it will actually help the couple to stay even more connected as they raise their new baby.

    In this episode:

    The inevitable changes in relationship dynamics when expecting a child.Clarifying the unique role your partner plays during the early stages of parenthood.The significance of building a network of friends, family, and professionals.Prioritizing self-care routines for both partners.Setting realistic expectations for bonding moments.

    If you found this episode helpful, please share it with friends and family who may be embarking on their own parenting journey. Have your own questions about relationships, intimacy or parenting? DM us on Instagram and we'll share them in our stories or on a future episode!

  • This week Brianna discusses how scar tissue can effect women's health and how to heal it.

    After experiencing a radical hysterectomy in 2015, Dionne quickly learned how little support there is for women post surgery. She first discovered a drastic impact on her sleep due to the change in hormones, then she learned she would not only have to advocate for her health, but help to educate her doctors along the way.

    With 27 years of experience as a therapist, Dionne has created various services and products to inform, instruct & give practical advice to women. She is passionate about helping other women and spreading awareness of the heroine's journey of hysterectomy women.
