Stay ConnectedAfter swapping stories and stiff drinks about the challenges of adulting with friends, Heather decided to create a space where she could gab about her experiences while spotlighting experts; from #bossbabes to parenting whispers, and she is bringing you along for the ride.
Each episode will feature raw moments, hilarious stories, expert tips and guidance to help listeners discover their secret sauce to finding their rhythm between work and motherhood.
Welcome to “A Space for Sōl.”
It’s been a little over two weeks since… well we can’t really say since (*COUGH* Heather + some others may not be caught up yet)...happened on GOT. It’s also been two years since we had babies and have two on the way. We’re not sure we’re really recovered from either yet…
Whether you’re battling the why from the finale of your latest show, a sick Taco Tuesday hangover or adjusting to mom life, recovery from even positive things like a vacation has you wanting a vacation. Today on the podcast we’re talking about recovery mode, balance and how implementing rituals can help keep your flow so you don’t end up in overload.
We loved the founder of Wanderwell, Cait's guest blog about burnout. There are some great tips in there and a sexy retreat calling your name if you need a little fiesta by the mar to celebrate Global Wellness Day. Margaritas included.
Any who.. enough chit chat, time to tune in to the episode!
We know how much everyone loved Episode #13 when Emily, the founder of Genetic Garden, joined us for the first time so we brought her back! During that episode we barely scratched the surface of a SUPER interesting topic to us - hormones.
Today’s episode dives in deep to hormones, PMS and how to manage these surges of emotions … we even chat about male PMS (we are certain it’s a thing). Bottom line nutrition has a lot to do with your hormonal waves so this podcast is a must listen!
Tune in and don’t forget to check out Emily’s blog on hormones that goes with our podcast content today. We also had a guest blogger, Carie from Luxe Skin Studio, on the blog this week breaking down hormonal acne.
AANNNNDDD… we won’t spoil the surprise but our friend Jess from @Shutthefigup (who was a guest on our podcast last week) has put together a little giveaway that launches tomorrow so make sure you’re following us on social so you can get the deets on what it is and how to enter.
It’s National Anxiety + Depression Awareness Week and we’re diving into this topic on today’s podcast. We have both dealt with a small level of anxiety during postpartum + job transitions, and today our guest Jess, founder of Shut the Fig Up, is sharing about her journey with anxiety and panic disorder that lead her to her passion around managing her mental and physical health through health and nutrition.

Happy Mother’s Day (week) to all the mamas + ones you know out there! We think it deserves more than a day so today and all week we’re celebrating you, your mama’s, our mama’s, our fur baby mama’s out there. We see you workin’!
It’s such a blessing to be a mama, but we wouldn’t be here without our own. We shared an interview with them on our blog earlier this week which was really fun! Sitting down and hearing their memories and thoughts on being a mom was great to hear. We recommend doing it with your mama, over wine… because we can’t have wine but you should. #beateamplayer
We’re a little goofy on this episode, a little raw about our best and worst moments as mothers and a whole lot of fun. We hope you love it as much as we did!
It’s like the holidays over here as we write this! Weare announcing so many things!!! AAHHHHH.
Ok, so where do we start...
This week we dive into when is the right time to go for it because every day is "one day" or "day one" until you decide to take that step forward. Clearly this inspired us because it’s Day One for us. Brooke announces her personal “day one” for her new venture during this episode, that’s all we can spill for now!

This week’s episode is one of those “tough but needs to be talked” about episodes. We’re so blessed to have our dear friend Ashleigh Azzari share her story about her journey with infertility in honor of Infertility Awareness Week.
We know women out there struggling to conceive or recently experienced infertility challenges and it is something that is close to our hearts as we support them through these moments. Motherhood starts in all different ways, and on today’s podcast we will hear about Ashleigh’s personal journey.
Let’s get real. Let’s get in it with each other. Let’s get ready to support one another. Even in the lowest points of her journey she still finds the silver lining and we’re pretty sure regardless you’ll be laughing during this episode like you always do.
It’s one of the many reasons we love her - she’s raw, real and real good at keeping a positive mindset amidst any challenge. #youreourgirlAsh
To say we’re excited is a SERIOUS understatement. We’re giddy like kids on Christmas over here waiting for it to be April 17, 2019. WHY!!!

"Ain’t life grand” - pretty sure that’s the saying (Heather always messes the cliche sayings up so can never be too sure) and honestly it is.
We’re managing work and motherhood pretty well over here not taking for granted how blessed we are to own our own 24… BUT (you knew that was coming) it’s still a slight shit show when we break down the aftermath of how we got here.
Motherhood is some serious business. We’re talking about managing a small and unreasonable dictators known as toddlers, businesses, the postpartum mess that is our new existence, new emotions, husbands. So why not have an episode about getting real on it and laughing about how ridiculous some of our stressors are.
We just read this article on Ellie Moms yesterday about toddlers and it pretty much sums it up. Now, here’s this week’s episode to sum up how “Babies Change More Than Your Bodies.”
We dedicate this episode to our amazing children who have changed our hearts, minds and bodies in ways we never imagined… and hopefully will be billionaires to pay us back one day. #kidding #kindof
Earlier this week we talked about cravings and just writing this made us have them all over again. What is it about Oreo’s that are so comforting? We actually talked a lot about Oreos along with DNA nutrition, health, epigenetics and scratch the surface about hormones in our latest episode featuring the founder of Genetic Garden, Emily Brown. Emily provides clients with exercise and nutrition recommendations based on genetic data and lifestyle factors while educating her client on their predispositions and any environmental factors that may influence them. Together, epigenetic information will be interpreted to create an effective plan with health and fitness practices that traditional genetics alone cannot reveal. Tune-in to hear our test results, how Emily is like a wellness matchmaker and why trying her DNA nutrition program is right up our (and we think your) alley. THE GIRLS GAB ABOUT The unique work Genetic Garden does How Emily’s program is different from 23 and Me Hormonal Cravings: lots of Oreos! The difference between allergies and sensitivities What Brooke + Heather found out from testing How to get started with Emily (she’s offering 25% off all month)
Heather’s baking another delicious baby so we have pregnancy on the brain. It’s round two so she’s heading into this one a little more experienced. We felt inspired to share all we’ve learned along the way and take a moment to share how her pregnancy is going so far.
Today’s podcast shares things we wish someone would have told us, will she find out the gender, first trimester update and how far she’s willing to drive to satisfy a craving - it’s all in there! And… fair warning lots of womanly talk about body parts, bodily fluids and all the other fun things pregnancy brings.
It will either be a good laugh for other moms out there or a nice dose of birth control for those yet to be mama’s. You’re welcome! ;) Anyone want to babysit?
Tune in and if you missed last week’s episode it's not too late to catch up!
