    In an unusual twist - we end season 3 in reflection. From a convo on air about “ball soap” - better known as squatch soap. We jump into the “how it all started” - unscripted amateurs with no plan, but a world of drive. Determined not to let paralysis analysis stop us from putting the rubber to the road. This convo very much highlights our Type 2 and Type 8 (enneagram) personalities - you’re going to be laughing right from the start.

    From cooking in a kitchen that’s on fire - to actually being fired - our paths crossed at the exact time our faith in a higher power was making us unwilling to miss an opportunity like this. What does Mac Hollins have to do with our email reply strategy? Division of responsibility - that’s what - our unique personality differences have both influenced one another, and created a unique space to really lean into our strengths and spirit.

    What’s in a perfect house? What’s makes perfect timing? What about the perfect pet? Or even the perfect job? See where we are going here? The only thing stopping any of us from starting - is likely just a set of limiting beliefs. But in reality - the world (of entrepreneurship) really is your oyster. From Jenny’s 43rd birthday - to our upcoming 1 year podcast anniversary - to unusual pedicures - and wedding photos - we reflect on this year-long journey that has us standing knee-deep in gratitude.

    Reflecting on past goals and expectations, we share wisdom we'd offer our younger selves, questioning societal milestones and contemplating unfulfilled dreams. We discuss the evolving meaning of success and fulfillment, encouraging the younger generation to pursue their passions. Our chat touches on everything from Costco must-haves to holiday traditions, wrapping up with a nod to our incredible listeners. Join us in celebrating our journey, our evolving friendship, and the endless possibilities that lie ahead. Cheers to one year and many more to come!

    We almost forgot to hit record - so get ready to jump right into it. When Jenny starts by serving up a White Knight from “dirty Myrtle”. Between giant turkey legs and swords - and hinge radius changes. We get back to the hard hitting questions - what pants do knights wear? No really - because it’s not shorts - it’s not tights - but it was making it awfully hard to get a photo during the sword fight so 


    The thighs/ quads convo is back on the table - and we’re calling it “sweet meat” as we unpack Raebecca’s type - and she confesses on air - something she’s never said out loud. From yoga outfits - to camel toe - yes, it’s on the table again 
 and this time it’s walking into the grocery store at the exact moment the bus is unloading the residence from the local assisted living community.

    We’re talking about decorating for fall vs Halloween - which holiday is the tiniest bit trashy - and all the surprises we have in store for this season. From glitter skeletons to a girls night with a craft that has us chomping at the bit for late September! (We will share - you’ll want to do this with your friends!).

    And we round it out with a discussion on “looking for a woman who is toned - takes good care of herself” and these insane hinge requests from the 50+ male demographic 
 meanwhile their own photos are a parade of red flags including receding hairlines, the beginning of moobs, and still using the terms “non monogamy” and “finding my relationship style” - god lord and god bless.

    And - Jenny has a birthday coming up - so this convo lands somewhere between the fight against aging and male audacity. Sorry not sorry - but if you’re using a 3 in 1 body wash and you want us to split the check - don’t invite us. Have you heard about the men with dish soap in their showers? Yes - this is real. And no this isn’t about feminism - this is about the fact that perfume, hair care (color/ cut/ products), nails, gym memberships, waxing, skin care 
 don’t ask to split the check.

    Shoutout to Core Power Yoga in Mt Pleasant - the entire team is amazing but Hope & Krista have gifted us with a love for yoga again.Apologies for butchering the yoga quote - here it is - and we continue to digest this 
 “May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears” Nelson Mandela

    An incredible episode - a toe dip (because we’re going to have to have her back!) into the world 
 errr pool of Enneagram with Kelsey Lincoln, a certified Enneagram life coach. This isn’t about strengths and weaknesses - this is about motivation, and what drives people to navigate the world through unique perspectives.

    From first “ick” when you learn your type (and that’s not even easy) to the way you navigate your enneagram in both healthy and toxic ways. She talks us through our types, and yours. We tackle the core motivations that drive the behaviors behind each type : core fear - core desire - core weakness - core longing. Are you a moral perfectionist? A befriender? An achiever? A romantic? An investigator? A loyalist? An entertainer? A challenger? A peacemaker?

    Do we have your attention yet?

    And does it mean to hire and enneagram mentor - Kelsey coaches clients through identifying their enneagram. But then, as a life coach, she teaches you how to navigate your life in your business and a way that keeps you, lack of a better term because she’s not a therapist (but her sister is!), mentally well. You’ll hear us referee this idea of healthy and what health looks like in your enneagram a lot.

    Even better she also has a podcast that she cohost with her sister. They the two ideas of your internal personality and then also mental health to discuss different topics like anxiety and how it presents in the body and then how it presents in each personality type.

    And guess what? She’s a mom (of course she is), of a very young child. What’s that thing? People always say? Full hands - fuller heart. Inspired to learn the skill after first experiencing it at a work retreat - she took on the task of getting certified as a Enneagram Coach during Covid. There really is something so amazing about Moms these talents and have these passions and then bring them to audiences like ours and us.

    Whether it’s your first time hearing about the Enneagram personality type assessment, or it’s your 100th you are really going to enjoy this episode. and you have a full blessing to spend a little extra time on yourself and your wellness - learning about yourself, and investing in yourself. We strongly encourage you to give her a follow or even to reach out to her if you think coaching might be for you (and yes - she does coach teams!).

    We switch gears between guests - for a deep convo about family and legacy after Raebecca returns home for a family funeral. Something about funerals and weddings have us digging into impact and reflecting on our own personal legacies. And somehow - SOMEHOW - the big take away was 
 we’re capable of more, today, tomorrow, and more than we originally thought.

    When did life become about cars, and big houses and status symbols - after sitting in a pew and listening to a true legacy, we can’t help but wonder what we’re contributing to the betterment. And we get into the weeds about how inadequate society likes to make us feel, when they don’t understand our “why” (and we don’t mean just our why, we mean anyones why). Including this completely inappropriate question we field SO OFTEN - “How much money do you make from the podcast?” - rude.

    This journey is about filling our cups - and yours. With humor, perspective, personal growth - we’re tackling the topics that so many of us face. As moms, working moms, entrepreneurs. And naturally that takes us on a left hand turn into college - graduation ceremonies - and our inability to fully be present in our achievements. We dissect our different approaches to control and success - and validation. Dont worry - we talk ALL about our failures, weight gain, beer and boys. Which one of us went to school with the intention to be a kindergarten teacher? You’re going to be shocked.

    And yes - we bring enneagram into this convo - and if you’re an enneagram girl you’re going to want to stay tuned! Next weeks guest is everything ENNEAGRAM - so take the free test and get ready to deep dive into your motivation and drive with our favorite expert.

    In loving memory - James Hare

    We have KIM RUSSO - from On Brand Designs joining us today - and y’all are in for a treat. We accidentally tried to poison her to kick it off - next time we’re talking allergies before we chose a restaurant (we didn’t know)! She’s got the best sense of humor - and she’s a brilliant entrepreneur 
 but she also got right into the weeds with us about her personal life, mentality and philosophy - you know that’s our love language.

    You might not know - you can’t trademark a logo design you’ve built in canva (without some Olympic efforts). Ever considered the impact AI could have on branding - positive and negative? There’s the potential for the same issue - but on a larger scale 
 you’re listening now, right?! Unlock the art of building a strong brand identity from a seasoned packaging design professional who’s shaped the visuals of household names like Tide, Gillette, and Kleenex.

    Our conversation ranges from minimalist design, color psychology, and the strategy behind memorable logos - but it’s more than business. She opens up about the challenges of transitioning from a corporate environment to her personal business endeavors, and even how a past relationship deeply impacted how she does business. It comes as no surprise - but the impact of a supportive spouse or partner can greatly impact your ability to succeed.

    How does owning a business impact your mindset? Hint - she does it with a desk Calendar that’s still set to July 2023. Somewhere between pet portraits - and prioritizing beach time - she delivers a must-listen for anyone struggling with perfectionism or finding their personal brand voice. Kim shares her strategies and mindset tactics on everything from design to how you show up in a design community as a competitor.

    She also gives us another personality analysis tool - the human design. From analyzing work habits, to eating habits. Kim enlightens us on life as a “manifesting generator” - and it comes as no shock that her qualities include lighting up a room, inspiring through energy, goal setting and ambition - and ultimately driving achievement in themselves and those around her. You know what they say - you are deeply impacted by the friends and the circle you keep!

    “Raise your vibrations - have positive energy - and be in gratitude. And it is not easy.”
    - Kim Russo (on being a successful entrepreneur)

    Hosting a kids birthday? We’ve got some tips - adult beverages and don’t be stingy on the slices. We said it. We love celebrating your kiddos but we don’t need to be starved and parched - these parties cost us all a few brain cells - help a girl out.

    Septic does Debby, or is it the other way around? If it wasn’t one thing, it’s another. Water is everywhere - from Jenny’s yard to Raebecca’s ceiling, we are drowning in Mount Pleasant. But when does hair washing trump everything else? At what point are you willing to get in your swimsuit and head out into the rain for a hair wash.

    We get a little deep into a few personality epiphanies about how people view us. As a retired/ semi retired people pleasers - we dissect the idea that there are people who will think you are the nicest person ever, and in the same breath someone else can view you as the nastiest person ever. And both can be right. The ability to match energy is quickly becoming one of our shared strengths. Even better? When someone thinks that you can think their thoughts.

    Somewhere between planning your own funeral and the cremation debate - we navigate the fact that one of us - often starts their convo 30% into their thoughts - leaving the other fairly bewildered at times. And the other is entirely too literal. Which - has its own unique complexities.

    This weeks episode lands somewhere between family plots, the lawn mower (yes, our IT guy wants to be left on the front lawn), our favorite Olympic stories - and the incredible impact the women had on this year’s Summer games. This one will leave you in tears - and you better shed them now because Jenny’s not letting it happen at her service.

    You thought we took you on a journey with the camel toe episode - but you weren’t ready for the fart walk talk. Jet set to unpaid water bills - we overshare (as always).

    How did a Turkish shooter with minimal gear bag a silver medal or how a nerdy engineer transformed into an Olympic heartthrob on the pommel horse? Where are the romance writers at - surely we’re running this moment into a few spicy novels, right? Something about taking those classes off, gives them the Clark Kent polish - and stands on business.

    Something about Snoop - the Olympic Spirit - celebrities like Flava Fav supporting athletes so they can compete at their best, these games have been unforgettable.

    Jenny jumps off a plane - and right into recording - after a week long trip with her dad and daughter. How old is too old for Universal - and at 40+ can we just expect to get wrecked when we ride a rollercoaster? The summer is winding down - with our final hurrahs with close family members - daddy daughter days - as adults. Something about it gives us the warm, cozy feeling - and we dig into filling our own cups as school begins and summer ends.

    It wouldn’t be an episode if we didn’t get personal. We recount Raebecca’s email inbox struggles - including an unpaid water bill. From the day she moved in. From ceiling struggle stress to email subject lines - why “YES” felt like “NO” - and the short story of how this happens.

    And then farts - kiddos to those couples who can do it. But - could you? Where’s the line between freedom and farts in your relationships? And we want you to weigh in - because we’re on the same page but it’s the one where you get the stomach ache from holding it in. We talk friends who have saved their marriage - through farting, don’t believe us? Give a listen.

    How did we get here, you ask? One of us joined yoga - and apparently we both share a massive fear of yoga farts. It’s all fun and games 
 until someone farts.

    We kick it off - talking love languages and our favorite resident nocturnal animal. After a 17 hour drive home and a sunrise view of the Statue of Liberty, we are again ships in the night. A front porch t shirt drop - and today’s recording - are the few moments we stole before one of us was back to jet set. And in classic style - we’re taking you with us on this catch up session.

    The act of showing someone you’re thinking of them - will forever be one of our favorite love languages. It’s not just a t shirt - it’s a gesture. And in typical mayhem fashion - we add some depth - debating the qualities of our favorite spirit animals.

    And a theme - you know your girl loves a theme. And she headed out to NKOTB in a hot pink bodysuit and silver jellies, coloring the rest of us green with envy. Somewhere between thunderstorms and gas lights - we are still finding romance in the everyday.

    And - what’s more romantic than a quickie? We end today’s episode with a conversation about prioritizing family and friends. From scheduling time - and protecting it - no diff than you would a doctors appointment or time with your stylist - how do you ensure you get time with your people? There’s always room for flexibility - and the impromptu quickie. It’s the balance of both for this duo.

    Last week’s snail trail episode was the podcast version of the quickie - and y'all had lots to say about it. We questioned the chaos of it - but you came back and said it was one of your favorite episodes! Something about hearing you say “it felt like I was in the car with you guys” or “on the couch with you” or “at your girls dinner” will always mean so much. We welcome the feedback, and while we know we will continue to grow - we would be remiss if we didn’t snag the opportunity to celebrate your voices and thank you, for everything.

    What’s - in a name? Scooby is back. And she’s never been to a fireworks stand. A simple visit to an American institution helps us dip our toes into the pool of rage 
 but, it’s not what you think.

    What if the simple joys of a local diner experience are being overshadowed by our obsession with perfection and high costs? By our ability to give “feedback”. Has the ability to complain freely ruining our joy? Since when did breakfast have to be brunch? If we created a food truck - would you come? Where did feedback end, and “complain culture” begin? Is competition to blame - or are we just top tier whiners?

    Ever wondered how social media and authenticity intersect in a world dominated by complaint culture? We dive into how relatable, genuine posts can outshine the curated content flooding our feeds. With personal anecdotes and dining experiences, we examine how critical online reviews, particularly those that are unwarranted, can harm small businesses.

    Are men and women different in their approach to complaints? Would your rather - service over the meal itself? Where’s the line - where’s the limit - and who is to blame?

    Thought we weren’t talking marketing today? Think again. We delve into the pressures new businesses face and the significance of bravery in fostering growth and innovation. Inspired by Jesse Cole and his revolutionary Savannah Bananas, we highlight the value of risk-taking and learning from failure - and yes, sometimes that means quirky skincare routines featuring beef tallow and snail mucin - is comparison the thief of joy?

    It wouldn’t be us - if we didn’t express heartfelt gratitude to our listeners, the "Scoobies," you are the charm to our mayhem - the grace to our chaos. Thank you.

    Here’s a not so fun conversation - and another dive into our candidness : today’s podcast sound quality isn’t our best. And while we discussed re-filming it - we decided that showing our vulnerability was more important. Thank you for giving us the grace and understanding - we know, that you know, that we value and take pride in our work - and we also know that life isn’t always “perfect”. Here’s to standing in the gap.

    Do you get to pick your niche, or does your niche pick you? We tackle the “promise, our website is almost finished” convo - because it’s been on our minds, but our plates have been really full. And in the spirit of gritty, our clients come first. Which cascades into a conversation about how “leaders eat last.” The idea of serving your customer and your team first - always.


    And wouldn’t you know it, the minute somebody mentions food we can’t help but dig into our idiosyncrasies as we take a left-hand turn to learning a whole lot more about one another, from deli meat to wiggly chicken. We still don’t know which one of us missed lunch - but that’s the only plausible explanation for our 5 min left turn into pure food comedy. Praying yall are in the same page as us 
 (please - let us know!)

    Tune in as we recount an encounter with the "McDonald's man" on Hinge, whose unsolicited dietary advice was an instant dealbreaker. This man openly asked for the opportunity to sit one of our team members down and have “a talk” about her food habits - and essentially said, “maybe after we’ve talked I’ll take you to dinner”. Audacity must be on sale somewhere.

    This leads us to brainstorm a tongue-in-cheek business idea: coaching men on how to improve their online dating profiles. We even ponder the charm of niche dating sites like FarmersOnly.com, envisioning a Hallmark-style romance amidst Christmas tree lots and charming farmers. It's a fun, light-hearted segment that explores the quirks and frustrations of modern dating. And ultimately marketing mindset - we just can’t help ourselves - this truly is our passion.

    We start with a dose of therapy - because sometimes you have a moment, whether is 6 donuts or a forgetful moment - and it’s best just to tell someone, to lay it on the table 
 errrr the podcast. If you’ve ever had to buy a whole new wardrobe at Target, because you forgot your suitcase at home, you’re in good company.

    Tales of the tallow - Instagram got the better of us (once again) when we stumbled upon a a reel touting beef tallow face cream. What seemed like a bizarre skincare trend has turned into an amusing anti aging experiment. Toss in a handwritten note - because we bought the beef from a small business (say that 5 times fast) - and big promises from simple ingredients and you’re speaking our language.

    We tiptoe into the reason “influencers” are dying out - whether we buy based on celebrities or tv star recommendations (the surprising answer is, no) - and why genuine product recommendations from friends are worth more than any flashy ad. * Hint - trust is big around here. And then we unpack the power of social presence, and why likes and followers, aren’t how we gauge social media impact.

    This episode is all Amazon - we pull back the curtain on the Amazon Influencer Program and our love-hate relationship with online shopping. From the brutal commissions for affiliates (3% - that’s $30 for every $1,000 sold, YIKES) to the name Amazon almost had 
 Cadabra. Which brings up a great point - the importance of branding and a strong marketing strategy. Because Cadabra 
 sounds an awful lot like cadaver.

    In celebration of Prime Days - we share some personal shopping favorites, including a face sculptor, cooling sheets, and a conversation about balancing support for small businesses with the lure of two-day shipping. And of course - because we are who we are - we can’t help but remind you that Amazon started in a garage - in 1994. There’s still time to chase the dream or do the big thing. Trust us. Whether it's beauty tips, home decor hacks, or just some good old-fashioned humor, this episode has something for everyone.

    HAPPY 4TH of JULY! The intro you don’t know you needed - from singing to considering voice lessons and the idea that “people will do anything for money”.

    Ever wondered if your perfectionist tendencies are a product of your genes, or just a learned behavior? Join us as we unpack the fascinating world of nostalgia, performance anxiety, and the pressures of perfectionism, all from Jenny’s husband’s childhood bedroom filled with old trophies and memories.

    Did you know anxiety is genetic? Join us as we consider whether or not that’s why we survived evolution - our ability to please and our ability to be strong contributors.

    Don’t miss our take on "Inside Out 2" and how it introduces new emotional dimensions that resonate with kids. As the universe feeds us repetitive themes - nostalgia - anxiety - and romance - we hit pause and unpack each one because nothing is by accident. And if the universe is trying to get our attention, we’re determined to pause and to listen. And somehow - in typical mayhem fashion - we discuss the unique roles we see one another in 
 1776. From butter churning to chopping wood and fixing wagons - we take you on a left hand turn, back to “not history” class.

    As we navigate through the complexities of personal boundaries in relationships, our discussion becomes a heartfelt reflection on how to maintain friendships while protecting our peace. From a friend feeling excluded to balancing alone time, we share real-life experiences that highlight the importance of setting and respecting boundaries. And we discuss peace - and romance. The simple romance - or the “glimmer” as we later heard it referred to - of finding gratitude in the simplest of things.

    Emphasizing the value of self-worth and platonic love, (yes - the kind we don’t talk about enough - the love we learned from our girlfriends) - we reflect on the journey of moving past the need for validation and embracing those who uplift us. Tune in for a mix of thoughtful reflection, humor, and heartfelt moments as we explore what makes summer and life so sweet.

    Happy 4th to you and yours !
    - Jenny & Raebecca

    Spoiler alert: Our answers might surprise you!

Reflecting on unforgettable escapades—whether it’s navigating the winding roads of Italy or hosting some unforgettable guests—we celebrate our growth one laugh at a time.

    What if your partner could read your mind? Would you prefer cozy nights in or thrilling adventures out? Join us as we tackle another unpredictable game “would you rather” - revealing our own awkward yet hilarious experiences. We dig deep into partner preferences, the joy of missing out (JOMO), and the quirky ways we all use social media. From the nightmare of joining a family obsessed with holiday 5Ks to comparing the allure of a killer wardrobe versus being a smooth talker—no stone is left unturned.

    Get ready to “have the time of your life” this week (yes, we’re alluding to the reel). We take an episode to catch up with Christina Smalley (THE Christina, our first ever guest and licensed family therapist), sharing all the hilarious and heartfelt moments from Raebecca’s daughter's 9th birthday to the nerves around Amy's upcoming Muay Thai fight. From the chaos of transitioning from summer break to our comical resistance to seeing the doctor over a nasty case of pink eye, this episode is packed with relatable summer struggles and plenty of laughs.

    We also take a deep dive into the art of balancing personal fulfillment with parental responsibilities. Filling your cup? Or just over filling your time? Are we accidentally contributing to our own overwhelm? Where do we drawn the line as parents, and participation. And when do need to check ourselves - and the example we are setting for our children - from family dynamics to the dynamics of friendship 
 who else will set their expectations for how these exist in adulthood? Christina helps us unpack how, prioritizing our needs can positively influence our children, teaching them the value of self-care and passion.

    After a silly intermission where we tackle gender roles and trimming bushes (no, not another body hair removal chat)- gas leaks and snakes - we jump into a deep conversation about boundaries. Who they protect - and when to know when one was very much needed. Hint: if there’s drama 
 well, where there’s smoke, there’s fire. A candid conversation about current relationships, recent boundaries, and the reactions we’ve have to face after. Christina guides us through what reactions we’re responsible for, and which ones we are not.

    Todays guest -
    Christina Smalley, Licensed Family Therapist
    Perinatal Mental Health Advocate

    We take a chance to recap Italy - and in perfect algorithm cadence 
 it’s taken over not just Jenny’s feed but also Raebecca’s and we’re here for it! The food, the beautiful people - but bless, the driving was something else. Leave it to Jenny to google translate the motion sickness of her crew, overseas.

    Would you believe it - we’re hitting the road! We manifested it early this year - and we’ve got a table - and a local Muay Thai fight - and we’re planning what to wear 
 at the same time we’re talking about french fries for breakfast 
 make it make sense. And in classic mayhem style - we unpack hash browns, Waffle House, a local brunch spot (shoutout to Big Bad Breakfast) and how extra we can make a simple breakfast side. Is smothered enough?

    Summer is here - we’re talking schedules, the beauty of being unscheduled, the balance of sports and workbooks and how we “get it all done”. And we take the chance to talk about a recent we project we just finished. Brand guide, and all. We talk about the difference in “brand guides” and the Gritty Gal difference. As promised - it’s more than just a pretty package delivered to a client’s inbox - we talk about the how, and what we’ve done to see this client up for success. Even better, we will be there to help implement the strategy we set as a team. As Jenny often says, we truly care about where the rubber meets the road. And for a second, let us talk you you about the difference between love and marriage - when it comes to branding.

    Would you believe us if we said - there’s now a reel - a dancing video 
 just when you thought we weren’t going to do it 
 we did. In the words of Taylor, “are you ready for it”?. From taking the weekend off, to a hype girl who actually tells you that you did a great job driving around with your gas tank on E
this is a great balance of Marketing & Mayhem, and after all, isn’t that the spirit you came for?

    We hope you’re ready for pure MAYHEM this week 


    We jump right into morning routines - hydration - and our salt/ electrolyte obsession. Summer is here - school is ending - and we both share excitement and angst over balancing our multiple roles this summer. But we’re reminded that often times, Mondays become Fridays before you even know it - and we’re lucky to have some flexibility in our day to day 
 and kiddos who enjoy one another’s company. Because that’s going to come in handy when we’re working poolside this season of life!

    We don’t talk about marketing - but we do talk booty shorts, camel toes - and our favorite sports bras (Amazon). We also talk about one of Raebecca’s favorite social media accounts - and dig a little into their authenticity and what makes them so likeable (@littleherculette Peyton Bucher ). And - what is the real story behind booty shorts at the gym 
 and we play a game of would you rather (that potentially will make your stomach flip just thinking about it).

    And finally - we’re talking about love languages again. This time - Acts Of Service. Is there a direct correlation to being a first born daughter, and this specific love language? Whether we're bonding over a meal train or pondering the art of gift-giving, it's clear that small gestures can hold immense power and show a certain depth of love for someone. Kicking off the summer with smores breakfasts and a case of the sillies - this week is a fun one!

    Unlock the secrets to a seamless synergy in business as we chat with Kelsey Klim and Kollin Chupa, the founders of K Squared Marketing.

    These marketing powerhouses - who might 
 just might 
 dress in the same outfit OFTEN, take us in their journey from event planning and management to owning their own marketing firm. We jump into conversations that range from pumpkin patches to crisis management and find 
 there really is something to be said for business partners who can complete one another’s sentences.

    What REALLY matters when it comes to marketing - your brand message, your voice, your core values and your call to action. It’s a lot more than a pretty brand guide. And while we love those - we also know business leaders who didn’t do extensive research into their logo or their color scheme. Leaders who jumped right into “doing”. But there’s positive and negative to both.

    Is there such a thing as a bad client and where do you draw the line? In a society where image, perception and instant gratification currently drive many business models - what would it take to create a sustainable business model? Where do you draw the line between brand recognition and the kind of marketing that grabs your attention? Is there ever a time to compromise? What if it calls on your own values and integrity and 
 isn’t meeting them? And how much does self awareness play into how you choose clients?

    From bad pictures to murders - you’ve considered a marketing team but have you considered one that can handle crisis management? Someone who protects your story, your integrity and your reputation while you’re busy building and living?

    Did you use ChatGPT to learn how to change a tire? Today is the day we unpacked the power of ChatGPT tell you how we give your and we talk to you about how we use it to break the cycle of writer’s block or even to help in efficiency when it comes to creating copy or content. We also challenge Chat GPT to create content - for a tire salesman/ sales page, because why not?

    But even better we kick it with a conversation Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. Before she was the performer, you guys know now she was a songwriter and she’s written songs for acts as big as Little Big Town.

    Have you heard about some the latest social media trends, the idea that “followers” as a concept might actually be dead, but engagement still reins queen? Conversation about longer length reels beginning to make a bigger impact.

    Between long runs and left turns - camping trips - and the existential question of “why doesn’t Disney have a library”? And was the beast, from Beauty & the Beast a dog or a lion? Help! We dive into high school, and Napoleon Dynamite

    We’re on one this week - hope you’re ready for some major laughs and nonsense right out of the gate this morning! From our podcast “link” to shark week - we jump right into what it would take for the two of us to host a variety show and why your Instagram messages go unread for long periods of time.

    Have you had a chance to watch “The Idea Of You” yet on Amazon Prime? (PS you’ve got a chance to win the book!). Don’t get us started how different a movie adaptation from a book, and this one was a tough one for us but it also got us started on some of our more recent reads and in typical mayhem fashion, we take a left-hand turn to talk about sports and spicy books.

    What does it mean to end your “no” journey - and start your “yes” journey? We unpack this idea of how isolating “no” can be - and how it really represents the need for protection and boundaries.

    This last year has represented a lot of change and a lot of growth for both of us, but it really comes down to the conversation of saying yes, and how many more doors and opportunities open as you start to embrace that philosophy, especially coming out of a healing journey or a space of deep growth. It’s sort of what came first, the chicken or the egg? Did we start saying yes and so bigger opportunities or did the opportunities come and we couldn’t risk it by saying no?

    And as we close - we open up about our love for slow mornings, the “slug life” - because that’s where it’s at. For Mothers Day and let’s be honest 
 whenever we can take a second to hit pause on the pace we keep - we get deep about the gift that is time. That’s our favorite. Whether it’s with girlfriends or whoever saves you space when you need it, there’s something so special about the recognition and emotional connection that is time together.

    Stand & Defend - holds a lot of heat and a few triggers so read the intro carefully please!

    Yes - it’s Keon Coleman (not Campbell - sorry, these are unscripted and no one’s perfect). #billsmafia

    Shoutout to BODEGA in Mount Pleasant, SC - we had the The Gropfather & The Shredded Cheese

    Have you ever had the moment as a mom where you feel like you’re trying so hard, but nothing is coming together? Well that just happened to us, and it’s the reason that we don’t have our kids on an episode for you guys this week. Join us as we go into the heartbreaking detail of the Mother’s Day episode that isn’t - and ultimately is another fail, but also a testament to our ability to overcome and also accept . Isn’t that just a giant part of motherhood and the journey we’re together?

    This week we take you on a journey from growing up, watching America’s Funniest Home Videos, and a theory we’re developing about why that turned us into adults who love reels. We tackle room service, The Apple Watch “scheme”, and one of our favorite movies “The Breakup” with Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn.

    And even though you invite us into your homes and your cars, every Thursday for a listen, find out why you don’t want us in your kitchen, baking. We share some of our kids favorite memories - from dropkicking rotisserie chicken to torching Easy Mac (3 times, all on accident). And remind ourselves that it’s the little things that they remember - the imperfect - and maybe just maybe those are actually the big things . They are literally watching us every day as we face adversity, and we walk through failure and we show love.

    A giant happy Mother’s Day to all of the moms out there because of all the hats to wear and all the jobs we have, this one is the hardest and the most rewarding, and you probably don’t hear it enough! You’re doing amazing, you’re beautiful and we see you. We love you!
