132: Adaptogenics and Burn Out: A Healthier Way To Destress - Ep.132

B is for: Buttrock Br*ke Bad words we don't say Brooke's singing career We've developed a sort of online/digital fatigue since 2020, and after watching Raw Beauty Kristie's video about how instant gratification has made creating content so incredibly grueling, we started thinking...is this how we've started to treat manifesting for our greatest good? If we don't get something immediately, are we just turned off of the idea of manfesting altogether?  When did we get so goddamn tired?         Want your question or story featured on the show?

Once upon a time, we had a mothering series that we loved soooo much, we had to *kinda* bring it back.  If you listened to that series (or you've just been around for a while!) you know already that there's a lot we wanted for ourselves from our mothers that we couldn't get, for different reasons. There's a lot lying beneath the surface when it comes to our reasonings for choosing not to have kids, or to wait til later, or to adopt. A lot of pain, a lot of fear, a lot of confusion, and quite honestly? A lot of disinterest in several of the things that come with carrying a child and raising one. Episode 129 delves into a few more unfiltered truths of the mothering wound – those lasting impressions etched by our mothers, whether born from absence, emotional detachment, or unresolved yearnings  – and how it can affect your choice as an adult to go down the path of being a mother yourself. What happens when you start to rethink motherhood? Is there a cut off? When is it too late? Who was your mother before she was your mother? And what if you never get to find out? The time period we're both in right now (late 20's) is so heavily marked by the yearning for autonomy and the societal expectations surrounding embracing parenthood. When is society going to celebrate the choice to NOT have a baby? What if the key to you changing your mind lies in pressing a little harder on the bruise to see what caused it?

ALL THE SHIT MOM DIDN'T TELL YOU: A Limited Series   There's a million and one things that a woman's vagina can do besides give birth. And a lot of 'em? Aren't fun. At. All.   Let's face it - we tend to air it allll out on this show. The good, the bad, the ugly, and the downright PAINFUL.  Because everything valuable we've learned about our bodies, we've learned in the past 7 years or so (thanks to the good ole internet and the normalization of women's bodies on social media) we realize that there are probably a LOT of you out there who learned sh*t the hard way, or haven't learned it at all, either. Leave it to us to discuss this shit. Tune in for some laughs (and some gasps, seriously, who knew this kind of terror could exist?)
