  • Episode 26: Friendships in Every Season (from Middle School to Motherhood) & How Friendships Evolve
    Aug 14 2025

    Episode Description:

    Female friendships can be magical, messy, and deeply meaningful. But they also evolve—and sometimes dissolve. In this episode, we’re digging into the unique dynamics of women’s friendships: what makes them thrive, what causes them to fade, and how we’ve seen our own relationships change over the years.

    We talk about:

    • The friendship qualities we’re most drawn to in this season of life
    • Why one-on-one connections can feel deeper than group dynamics
    • How our friendships have shifted from middle school to motherhood
    • The difference between social friends and close friends—and why we need both
    • Handling moments when you feel left out
    • What loyalty really looks like (and what it’s not)
    • How to be intentional about cultivating stronger, healthier friendships now

    We also share personal reflections on how motherhood, marriage, and career have reshaped our circles—and why we’ve learned to value depth and ease over quantity.

    Getting back into reading again (don’t get too excited—she’s only made it through two books this summer), but swapping 15–20 minutes of scrolling for a few chapters before bed has been a game-changer for relaxing at night.

  • Episode 25: "Filtered": Beauty, Body Image, Botox & Being Real in a Touched-Up World
    Aug 7 2025

    Episode Description:

    In a world of filters, fillers, and constant comparison, how do we raise daughters to feel strong, beautiful, and worthy—exactly as they are?

    This week, we’re taking a real and unfiltered look at beauty, confidence, and the body stories we carry. From the first moments we became “body aware” to how that awareness has evolved through motherhood, we open up about the subtle ways society shaped us—and how we’re breaking the cycle for our girls.

    We’re talking:

    • The first time we became self-conscious about our bodies
    • What actually makes a woman feel good (beyond the mirror)
    • The love/hate dance with filters, Botox, and enhancement
    • Scripts and strategies for raising confident daughters
    • Simple “mirror moments” and daily practices to repair your own body story

    Our goal? To start seeing ourselves with more kindness—and to model that for the next generation.

  • Episode 24: “This Too Shall Pass”: Burnout, Balance & the Quiet Work of Getting Your Spark Back
    Jul 31 2025

    Episode Description:

    In this honest and soul-stretching conversation, we open up about what burnout looks like right now—not the dramatic kind, but the slow, sneaky version that shows up as irritability, lack of motivation, and wondering why even the things you used to love feel heavy.

    We reflect on Tom Hanks’ quote, “This too shall pass,” and how that one line hits differently in the thick of motherhood, changing careers, and trying to stay inspired when you’re just… tired. Christina shares her own experience with career burnout and what it’s been like to start questioning what’s next—possibly even returning to a 9–5. We also talk about letting go of the pressure to be constantly inspired and productive, and how to come back to yourself gently, one small win at a time.

    Takeaways:

    • Burnout in motherhood often shows up as low-key exhaustion, overstimulation, and a sense of losing yourself—especially when you're constantly "on."
    • Career burnout can happen even when you’re technically doing what you love. Christina shares why she’s been craving structure, support, and the spark of collaborating with others again.
    • It’s okay to question what you’ve built—and to want something different.
    • “This too shall pass” applies to both the hard and the magical; nothing lasts forever, and that’s both comforting and bittersweet.
    • You don’t need to wait for inspiration to strike. Sometimes, just doing the next small thing is enough.
    • Letting go of the pressure to do it all can help you return to yourself. Rest is part of the process.

    Playing tennis with her 12-year-old son. It’s a shared love, and she’s cherishing the chance to do something together that’s active, bonding, and totally theirs.

    Christina’s Pink Spotlight
    Quality over quantity bags. This summer, she's been carrying two Quince favorites on repeat:

    1. Taupe woven sling bag – 100% leather, two straps (shoulder + crossbody), fits all the essentials, and looks good with everything. It’s perfect for everyday and travel.
    2. Ivory woven clutch – buttery soft, under $150, and the ideal event or date night bag.

    Both are timeless, elevated, and have made getting dressed feel a little more effortless.
