  • The Hardest Help: A Story of Alcoholism, Loss & Hope with Holly Thorton
    Dec 9 2025
    Today's episode is deeply powerful, featuring Holly Thornton, author of "The Hardest Help." I wanted to create a space for Holly to share her vulnerable story about losing her husband to alcoholism at just 36 years old. Through our conversation, we explored the complex journey of supporting a loved one struggling with addiction, the importance of trusting your instincts, and how moms can find strength even in their most challenging moments. Holly's story is a testament to resilience - showing how we can navigate incredibly difficult circumstances while trying to hold our families together. We discussed the subtle red flags of addiction, the challenges of setting boundaries, and the critical importance of supporting oneself through impossible situations. My goal was to create an episode that would make listeners feel seen, supported, and hopeful, even when life feels overwhelming.

  • Protecting Your Peace: Scottie’s Guide to Authentic Living
    Nov 18 2025
    I share a personal journey of self-discovery and the importance of trusting myself. After experiencing a friend's devastating loss, I realized life is too short to chase external validation through Instagram followers or perfect holiday performances. I've learned that what truly matters is being present, listening to my body, and honoring my own feelings. The pressure to be a perfect mom, to say yes to everything, and to meet society's expectations is exhausting. Instead, I'm choosing to protect my peace, redefine success on my terms, and show my kids that it's okay to prioritize your own joy. Every "no" creates space for a meaningful "yes," and by taking care of myself, I'm teaching my children the most important lesson: you are enough, just as you are.

  • How To Say No and Keep The Peace This Holiday
    Nov 4 2025
    I'm diving deep into the art of saying no during the holiday season. As a mom who's been a chronic people-pleaser, I've learned that saying yes when you mean no only leads to resentment and exhaustion. I share my personal journey of trying to make everyone happy during my parents' divorce, and how it left me stressed and disconnected. The key is to prioritize your family's needs first. I recommend sitting down together and discussing what everyone truly wants from the holidays. Learning to set boundaries isn't about rejecting others – it's about protecting your peace and showing up authentically. By saying no with love and clarity, we can create more meaningful connections and teach our children the importance of self-care and honest communication.
