Hype Girls, Separation Anxiety & Lack of Control

Marketing & Mayhem

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.
