  • #47 - A Hospital Episode? Merry Christmas…
    Dec 23 2025

    Sure… it’s two days before Christmas. And sure… most people are watching Santa trackers instead of podcasts. But we’re coming in HOT with a hospital episode — and somehow, it’s full of comedy. 🤷🏼‍♀️🎄

    We go live (nurses and all) to capture this from Cal's hospital bed while being treated for a mastectomy expander infection (because nothing says holiday cheer like 2 IV drips of big gun antibiotics and beeping machines).

    We talk about why she’s hooked up to two different drips, losing her boobs not once but TWICE (rude), and how patience is the hardest part of healing — especially when surgery delays have you ready to rip off your bracelet and sprint to the OR. 🏃🏼‍♀️💨

    But in the middle of that frustration, Caley found clarity: she needed those extra moments to process the emotional reality of going fully flat — forever. It wasn’t the plan she wanted, but it was exactly the timing she needed. ❤️

  • #46 - Moms - You're Doing New Years Eve Wrong - TRY THIS!!
    Dec 16 2025

    Before kids, staying up until 1am drinking all the libations was the JAM… but after babies - not so much. You’re tired, they’re tired - and let’s be honest, a late bedtime for them does NOT mean they are going to sleep in. In fact usually that means they’re going to be tapping on your shoulder an hour early no matter how much of a perimenopause hangover you’re harboring.

    This year, we’re giving you permission to flip the script and ring in the New Year in the middle of the day. We’re talking Noon Year’s Eve — guests showing up at 10AM, full-on themes, tini-tiny tables full of kid friendly junk food, adult libations, kid-friendly chaos, grown up converations, and absolutely irresponsible amounts of confetti.

    Ringing in the New Year at 12PM means you can party all afternoon, get the kids tucked in on time, hydrate like a boss, and wake up January 1st feeling like you run the world instead of dragging yourself into another year.

    This episode is your survival guide to celebrating smarter, not harder.

  • #45 - When The Holidays Trigger… Everything
    Dec 9 2025

    Holidays are supposed to be magical… but sometimes they bring out alllllll the emotions — from pure joy to the “why am I crying in Target again?” moments.

    In this episode, we dive into how the holidays can trigger memories and trauma we didn’t even know we were holding onto.

    Caley starts by sharing what she once believed was her worst Christmas ever — the year she wasn’t allowed to sneak-peek the presents under the tree. That tiny childhood heartbreak somehow overshadowed the truly hard Christmases that came later: bankruptcy, brain injury, and even the ones during Whitten’s chemo.

    Megan opens up about some emotional weight she recently realized she’s been storing in her body for years. We go deeper talking about grief, holidays after loss, and giving ourselves grace through changing seasons. Every Christmas looks a little different — and doing our best is enough.
