Mocktails Or Messy

01/24/24 • 43 min

Ever wondered how the transition from a carefree, single life to the whirlwind of motherhood affects a woman's sense of self? Grab a mocktail or messy cocktail and join us in an honest exploration of a sober-curious lifestyle, the evolution of parenthood, and the beauty found in the chaos of raising tiny humans. Ryan & Kelly reminisce about the days before children—how pregnancy prompted Kelly to put the wine glasses down and how our adventures have shifted from solo exploits to family escapades. We're toasting to milestones and sharing personal anecdotes, like the time a champagne cork made a surprise attack during our recording, all while affirming the enduring bonds of friendship that have only strengthened since our middle school days.
Life throws curveballs, and they don't always miss. When a breakup brings our world crashing down, we're right there in the trenches together, unpacking the messiness of separating lives entwined both personally and professionally. From family squabbles to career consequences, we're diving into the resilience it takes to start over and the invaluable role a solid support network plays in the healing process. Expect a few laughs too, as we recount those moments that make you double-take, like bizarre requests from a med student oddly fascinated with feet and the unexpected health tips that emerge in the most unlikely conversations.
The journey doesn't end with the laughter, though. We're opening up about my battle with postpartum depression and anxiety, contrasting my vastly different experiences with both children. We celebrate being better equipped the second time around and emphasize the importance of preparedness and support in navigating these challenges. So, as we wrap up this episode of "Mocktails are Messy," we're raising our non-alcoholic glass & traditional alcoholic for the normies to the power of friendship, the courage it takes to rebuild, and the warmth that comes from mutual support. It's not just about the mess—it's about finding the joy and humor in every spilled drink and unexpected spill of life.
