Join Kat for an honest and open talk with professional musician and fellow mom, Brittni Fiddler, about what it's like to balance a career you love while also juggling the many demands of motherhood. Spoiler alert.. it's not easy! Plus, Brittni tells us who saved her ass recently, and Kat asks Brittni the tough questions in a riveting round of this-or-that.
Kat investigates the myth that working moms can "have it all". PS: why are we supposed to want it all?
SO. Many. Questions.
Who knew that the raspberries and the weeds could yield so many helpful lessons about momming and human-ing?! Join Kat as she delves into topics such as shifting your perspective, pruning out what doesn't serve you, and nourishing the relationships that feed your soul. (Warning - bad gardening jokes and puns were used in the making of this episode).
Time! That thing there's never enough of. In this episode, Kat explores the topics of time, energy, choice and priorities. Plus - the 2 degree shift we could all be doing that could make a massive difference!
The pod is 1 year old! In this anniversary episode, Kat delves into the topic of self-care, what it is and - importantly - what it ISN'T.
Join Kat as she reflects on some of the awesome people and moments, both big and small, that totally saved her ass lately. Also - 2 new motherhood mantras!
Comparison is the thief of joy, so why do we do it? How the urge to compare shows up in life and in parenting, and some ideas for how to tame the beast. Plus, Kat's Win/WIP this week: the stories and narratives we tell ourselves.. they're everywhere!
Instead of "New year, new you", how about "New Year, new...you fill in the blank!" Choose your own adventure. And don't forget to look for the proof that the universe has got your back.
Change is hard. Ending relationships is hard. Is it better sometimes to "untie" rather than cut ties? Is it even possible when human egos and hurt feelings get in the mix? Kat also explains why the podcast (and her life) have been on hiatus lately.
In this quickie episode, Kat hits all the highlights - and lowlights - of her week. In her WIN/WIP, Kat celebrates the little win she had this week (fitness related!), and talks about her current work in progress and attempts to feel "unstuck". Kat also talks about the kind stranger who saved her ass, the passage from Untamed that made her feel seen, AND introduces the new Motherhood Mantra segment!
Is fatigue a losing battle when you're a mom? Has it simply become part of the mom "badge" that we all wear, and we are supposed to accept that we are going to be tired - all the damn time? Also - the tension between getting enough rest, and getting enough done in a day; and the fascinating yet eerily apt concept of Revenge Bedtime Procrastination. Plus, a WIN/WIP segment where Kat talks about successfully "surfing the urge", and the audiobook she listened to this week about post-concussion syndrome that totally made her feel seen.
In Part 2 of the All Things Poop saga, Kat B. and Maia G. talk alllll about baby poop! There was just so much to talk about when it came to poop, that we had to do a number 2 (haha, get it).
Mom friends.. why you need some & how to find them! Kat talks with one of her mom besties, they share their mat leave meet-cute and some tips for finding your tribe.
Everything you wanted to know, but were too afraid to ask (or didn't know to ask)! Join Kat and her mom friend, Maia G., for a light-hearted, informative and very frank discussion about all things poop.
In this episode, Kat talks about getting back into the swing of things at work... how good it can feel to rediscover that part of yourself, and the mom guilt that can come along with it.
In this episode, Kat explores ideas of failure and success in motherhood, and how this job is totally different from any job she's ever had - in part because you get thrown in the deep end with no training whatsoever! She also discusses the concept of matrescence (like adolescence, but becoming a mom), and the extremely kind thing Kat's friend said to her this week that saved her ass.
This week, Kat B. talks about the parenthood paradox...the bigness and smallness of motherhood. You know, the way that motherhood can be simultaneously amazing and awful; magnificent and mundane. Also - why toxic positivity needs to be kicked to the curb, and the thing that made Kat really feel 'seen' this week.
It's the inaugural episode of The Days Are Long Podcast! Join Kat B. as she talks about embracing imperfection in motherhood, celebrating the little wins and the small, but important, thing one of her mom friends did that totally saved her ass this week.
