Shelby Clement

In this episode, Shelby sits down with Carly Porter — a stay-at-home mom of three (with baby number four on the way) who has been sharing her real, everyday life online and unintentionally building a community through honest, relatable content.Carly opens up about how social media first started as a creative outlet during the busy and sometimes overwhelming seasons of motherhood. What began as a simple way to connect and share stories slowly turned into something bigger as more people began relating to her raw, funny, and authentic moments as a mom.During the conversation, Carly shares the unexpected moment she received an opportunity to join the NUUDS creator program — something she never saw coming. She talks about the mix of excitement, disbelief, and imposter syndrome that followed, and how this experience pushed her to start taking content creation more seriously while still staying true to who she is.Shelby and Carly dive into conversations many women quietly struggle with: comparison on social media, the fear of judgment, balancing motherhood with personal dreams, and learning how to show up online without overthinking every post. Carly shares what it’s really like to build something online while raising small children and why embracing imperfection has been one of her biggest lessons.They also talk about the importance of setting boundaries with social media, protecting your mental health, and remembering that connection matters far more than numbers or engagement. Carly shares practical encouragement for moms who feel called to create but hesitate because of fear, time constraints, or outside opinions.This conversation is honest, encouraging, and filled with moments that will resonate with anyone trying to navigate motherhood, creativity, and personal growth at the same time.If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s space for you online, whether your voice matters, or if you’re capable of building something while managing the chaos of real life — this episode is a reminder that there is always room at the table.Connect with our guest:https://www.instagram.com/carly__porterCarly Porter is a mom of 3, soon to be 4, based in Southern California.

Kelsey also shares how consistency, faith, and learning to trust her voice played a major role in helping her grow.This conversation dives into the messy middle the years of showing up when no one was watching, the fear of being judged by people who knew her, and the moments of doubt that almost made her stop.

What if your life-changing opportunity was waiting on the other side of simply showing up — even when you feel unsure, unready, or unseen?In this episode, Shelby sits down with Sarah, pediatric occupational therapist, new mom, and fellow NUUDist, whose decision to start posting on TikTok during her postpartum season unexpectedly led to her being hand-selected as one of the NUUDists — opening the door to an opportunity she never saw coming.What began as a deeply personal outlet — a way to cope with postpartum emotions, rediscover her identity, and rebuild her confidence — slowly turned into something far bigger than she imagined. With the encouragement of her supportive husband, Sarah began showing up consistently, not for fame or followers, but simply to feel like herself again. Just days into posting consistently, she received the email that would officially invite her into the NUUD community — a moment that would completely shift her trajectory.Sarah opens up about the emotional reality of postpartum, the isolation many new mothers experience, and the fear that comes with putting yourself out there — especially when people you know are watching. She shares what it felt like to be chosen as a NUUDist, stepping into rooms she never imagined being in, and how being surrounded by ambitious, driven women helped her see a version of herself she hadn’t fully stepped into yet.She also talks about the unforgettable moment she received the NUUD email, the whirlwind experience of meeting the other NUUDists, and how community, courage, and consistency can unlock doors you didn’t even know were available to you.This conversation is raw, honest, and deeply inspiring — especially for anyone who feels called to more but is afraid to take the first step, pivot their identity, or believe that bigger opportunities are possible for them.It’s a powerful reminder that you don’t need to have everything figured out to begin.Sometimes, the simple act of showing up can change your life — and sometimes, it can make you a NUUDist.Connect with our guest:https://www.instagram.com/sarah.difrischiahttps://www.tiktok.com/@sarah.difrischia?_r=1&_t=ZT-93bEhgsnebVSarah is a pediatric occupational therapist currently on maternity leave and stepping into the world of content creation.

In a moment of surrender, she asked God what He wanted her to do next.And then the email came.In this episode, Shelby takes listeners behind the scenes of the Dallas mentorship retreat, the whirlwind snowstorm travel chaos, the imposter syndrome that crept in, and the hallway conversations that challenged her to level up.

Shelby shares why she finally took that step, how working with a Christian therapist has helped her uncover patterns like people-pleasing and emotional suppression, and why healing doesn’t mean something is “wrong” with you. It means you’re willing to grow. From anxiety to burnout to breaking generational cycles, these reflections apply far beyond one area of life.Faith is woven throughout this episode in a grounded, honest way.
