The Christmas countdown is on, and we're catching up on ALL the things, like how to muster up motivation when your business battery is dead, why our stockings are the only thing Santa fills, and the annual debate of “will we ever stop buying Christmas gifts for adults?”. We chat about what it’s like running a business as a mom, especially during the holidays, thrifting Christmas presents, and making fun the secret sauce to getting things done. We laughed, we ranted, and we maybe shed a sentimental tear (Lauren definitely did)!

👯‍♀️ Today’s Banter Includes:

• How to find motivation in your business again (or make peace with not having any)
• Our tricks for making the boring parts of work actually fun
• Should we treat ourselves as a reward… or to get started?
• End of year money & goal planning with the ultimate “financial barn” date night
• Blood Boilers: AI customer service and group texts no one wants to be in
• 30-Second Therapy: Why “it is what it is, but it’s not what it will be” is our new mom motto
• Little Luxuries: past us serving future us, Christmas sheets, candles, and more
• Gotta Gab About: Christmas traditions we love, including thrifting gifts and stuffing our own stockings

Heyyyy besties! We've got a lot to gab about today, like our thoughts on extended breastfeeding (and our inability to relate), holiday party marathons, and the never-ending search for an available babysitter. We’re also talking about our newest opinions on business funnels and marketing. Come for the business tips; stay for the shameless secondhand Christmas chat, screen time confessions, and general blood boiling over Walmart red onion reviews (do people actually do this?! We have to know.). We’re so glad you’re here!

👯‍♀️ Today’s Banter Includes:

• The business funnel breakdown: social media, email, podcast, and selling authentically
• Our very real feelings about rage-bait breastfeeding content
• Why finding babysitters is a part-time job (and our Facebook group hacks)
• Holiday party season - how many Christmas parties is too many?
• Secondhand Christmas gift wins
• Hacks for holiday hosting (hello, kid charcuterie boards and notes from last year)
• The screen time widget, app limits, and our quest for less phone brain rot
• Millennial memory update: we have more waterbed info!

We are RISKING IT FOR THE BISCUIT today - recording while our kids are napping (or “pretending” to be sick). We’re chatting about how we’re keeping our businesses moving along. One of us is lazy-geniusing her podcast guest schedule, and the other has no self-control when there’s a brunch invite. 💁‍♀️ Plus, we’re diving deep on important life matters: are we supposed to be this tired? Why do men fall asleep faster than humanly possible, and what even happened to waterbeds?

👯‍♀️Today’s Banter Includes:

• Rebecca's “lazy genius” hack to book podcast guests on her schedule
• Why Lauren can’t get motivated to work, and tough-love time-blocking advice
• The wild evolution of sneaker trends
• The never-ending Halloween candy saga and how we’re managing Trick-or-Treat loot
• Our husbands’ superhuman sleep skills (and why our kids are trained to wake up Dad)
• The little luxuries we’re loving right now
• Millennial Memories: candy stand games, clap-on-clap-off technology, and whatever happened to WATERBEDS?!
