This week on HotRod Mess, Angie sits down with the powerhouse herself — Dr. Tara Chute, an OB/GYN turned unstoppable businesswoman — to talk about what it really takes to walk away from the comfort zone, chase freedom, and rebuild life on your own terms.

Tara opens up about the moments that pushed her over the edge — the endless hospital hours, the rotating shifts, the pressure to always be “on,” and the burnout that comes when you’re pouring into everyone else and forgetting to refill your own cup. She didn’t change her profession… she changed the rules of how it was played.

Now the doctor is the boss, calling her own shots, creating her dream practice, and finally designing a career that fits her life instead of the other way around. We dive deep into what that transition looked like — from the scary first steps to the eye-opening lessons, and the unfiltered reality of what it means to become your own CEO while still being a mom, wife, and woman trying to find a little peace in the chaos.

Tara shares how her husband became her rock through the entire journey — the late-night talks, the doubts, the risks, and the support that made her leap possible. Their dynamic is raw, honest, and inspiring. Together, they flipped the script — proving that success doesn’t always mean sacrificing your sanity or your family.

You’ll hear Tara’s take on the learning curves that hit hardest: the business side no med school ever teaches you, the self-doubt that creeps in when you step outside the system, and the joy of watching patients find her again — not in a hospital hallway, but in a space she built from the ground up with heart, hustle, and hope.

If you’ve ever dreamed of breaking free from the burnout, starting your own thing, or just wondering what happens when a woman decides enough is enough — this episode is for you. It’s about courage, balance, messy growth, and rediscovering what “having it all” really means when you build it your way.

So buckle up, because this is not your polished-perfect-doctor story. It’s a HotRod Mess of reinvention, resilience, and real-life lessons from a woman who traded exhaustion for empowerment — without ever giving up her purpose.

Grab your coffee, pour some chaos, and join Angie and Dr. Tara Chute for a raw conversation that’ll make you laugh, nod, and maybe even rethink what’s next for you.

Tune in to HotRod Mess — where real life meets horsepower, and women like Dr. Tara Chute remind us that the messiest roads often lead to the most beautiful destinations.

Welcome back to another episode of HotRod Mess, where the coffee is strong, the mics sometimes work, and life refuses to stick to the script.

This week, Angie and Alex kick things off with a solid caffeine buzz and a full dose of mom-life comedy. The mics weren’t on (because, of course they weren’t), the conversation went everywhere, and somehow, between all the laughs, the chaos, and the caffeine shakes, a story came together — a story only HotRod Mess could tell.

It’s the kind of morning where the smell of HotRod Strong Coffee fills the house while you’re trying to figure out who’s actually functioning. Angie’s running on caffeine and mom instinct, while her adult college kid is battling the hangover of the century — the kind that makes you rethink every “I’m grown now” speech they ever gave.

From the chaos of parenting adults kids, to the younger boys, to the girl of chaos "Ricky Tan", daughter, to laughing about how even the simplest things (like turning the mic on) somehow go sideways, this episode is packed with real-life, relatable madness. The kind that every parent, business owner, and overworked human can nod their head and say, “Yup, that’s me too.”

☕ And through it all? Coffee. Not just any coffee — HotRod Strong Coffee (all natural) — the only thing keeping the gears turning and the laughter flowing. It’s bold, it’s smooth, and it’s built for mornings where you need horsepower just to get to noon.

This week’s chaos includes: 🔥 The moment we realized the mics weren’t even on — but kept talking anyway. 🔥 Mom vs. The Hangover Kid: a caffeine-fueled showdown. 🔥 The mystery of the “lost car title” — because someone always loses something. 🔥 That fine line between parenting, friendship, and letting them learn the hard way. 🔥 And the glorious reminder that laughter (and coffee) fix almost everything.

If you’ve ever had a day that starts in chaos, rolls through caffeine, and somehow ends in laughter — this one’s your people. It’s not polished, it’s not perfect, but it’s real. That’s what makes it HotRod Mess.

Because let’s face it — when the mics are off, the kids are hungover, and the coffee’s doing all the work, that’s when the best stories happen.

So grab your mug, sip something strong, and join us as we turn another real-life mess into a moment worth laughing at.

This week on HotRod Mess, Alex and Angie are breaking down what it really means to be honest, strong-willed, and a little bit wild — while still trying to deal with men who haven’t exactly caught up. 🙄

Alex shares her dating updates and lessons learned from modern men, while Angie dives into what it’s like balancing old-school love with new-school independence — and the grace her husband gives her while she grows (and occasionally goes feral). 💋

It’s raw, it’s funny, it’s every woman trying to keep her crown on straight while dealing with a man who “means well.”

Parenting advice says “stay calm, use your gentle voice”… yeah, okay Susan. This week, Angie and Alex are taking a wild ride on the parenting crazy train — no quiet cars allowed! From reliving the toddler meltdowns to teenage side-eye, we’re breaking down the myth of “peaceful parenting” and laughing our way through the chaos.

Because sometimes, the best parenting moments happen when you’re two seconds from losing it — and that’s perfectly okay.

🚂 Buckle up, grab your cold coffee, tequila or whatever, and come laugh with us as we remind every mom and dad out there: you’re not failing, you’re just on the express route to survival.

Life’s messy, but getting organized doesn’t have to be perfect. In Part 2 of Organized Chaos, Angie challenges you to pick just one task this week, commit to it, and see what happens. Will it feel awkward? Will people call you “feral” for standing your ground? Good. Embrace it. Because progress doesn’t start with perfection—it starts with one small step.

Life doesn’t stop just because you’re trying to keep it together — and neither do I. In this episode of HotRod Mess, I take you along in the Escalade while running errands and share my personal technique for holding my chaos together.

This isn’t about perfection; it’s about finding rhythms, hacks, and little systems that make the day flow when everything (and everyone) is pulling in different directions. Think of it as real-world organization for real-world mess.

If you’ve ever felt like your life is a mix of schedules, family, and constant “on-the-go,” this one’s for you.

👉 Tune in to hear how I manage to keep the HotRod Mess rolling — with humor, honesty, and a whole lot of reality.
