Southern sayings, honest reflection, and big plans ahead.

We’re breaking down the euphemisms and traditions that define Southern culture, reflecting on what 2025 taught us about podcasting, and sharing our goals for the year ahead as hosts and moms. Grab a glass of sweet tea and join us for a candid, behind-the-scenes conversation about growth, intention, and what’s next.

In today’s episode, Cassandra briefly turns into a robot (technology humbles us all), and then we get into the real story.

Kassundra Evans shares how a carefully planned path toward law school gave way to a career in cybersecurity—and why that pivot wasn’t accidental, but catalytic. We talk about the Women in Tech Single Mothers program and how access to the right rooms, the right support system, and a network of powerhouse women can radically change the trajectory of a career—and a life.

We go beyond buzzwords to unpack why cybersecurity matters in our day-to-day work, not just for companies, but for families. From protecting data to protecting kids, Kassundra breaks down the practical systems and mindset she uses to stay secure, grounded, and (mostly) sane as the CEO of her household.

This episode is about reinvention, resilience, and the universal truth no one escapes: parenting is hard, careers are nonlinear, and none of us are doing this alone—even when it feels that way.

If you’ve ever questioned your career path, your capacity, or how you’re supposed to hold it all together, this conversation is for you.

Friendship gets a glow-up in your 30s and 40s. On this episode of Coffee Meets Cloud, we’re getting real about the evolving nature of friendships - from finding your people while managing careers and kids, to outgrowing relationships that no longer fit, to the unexpected joy of deeper, truer connections.

We unpack why adult friendships feel different (and harder), how working moms build and maintain community, and the unspoken rules that emerge when time, energy, and bandwidth get real.

Expect laughter, relatable stories, the group chat moments we all know, and the reminder that you’re not alone in craving connection.
