how i got here, why the bubble exists, all the messy in-between. no highlight reel. its time to go all in on whatever it is my soul is calling me to. and I think, it might be all of you!

the world just watched the biggest World Cup in history close out on home soil — 48 teams, three host countries, and the tournament's first-ever halftime show — and your girl needed someone who actually knows a corner kick from a header to break it all down. enter Nicole, football fan, forever babble buddy, and this week's very patient guide through the offside rule.

we're recapping the whole beautiful mess: Spain outlasting Argentina 1-0 in extra time at MetLife, Ferran Torres coming off the bench to bury the winner in the 106th minute, and what might've been Messi's last World Cup bow. Nicole tries to explain why a 1-0 game is somehow thrilling, i ask the questions you're too embarrassed to google, and we get into the part that actually gets me every time — a whole planet holding its breath together for one bouncing ball.

whether you screamed at a screen for a month straight or you're just here for the vibes and the snacks, pull up a chair. this one's for the die-hards and the "wait, which team are we cheering for" crowd alike.

Today we are digging a little into some vulnerable, yet important topics with my Mom. I am helping to understand my perspective when it comes to religion and Relationships.

Please join me and Riley on a journey of finding ourselves authentically against a lot of odds, really. <3

Come with us as we discuss a disagreement and work though it together. there are just. couple of curse words... Let me know if you identify with our dynamic at all.

The second half of the beginning of a conversation with my mother. Today we dig into her childhood a little and how that may have affected her parenting and future life. It's a bit ADHD, but so are we. Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy!

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas week and a Happy new year. I will see you in January for the second half of that conversation with my Mom, and I have quite a few ideas cooking. Wishing you and yours the best,

Cherie

Its possible I am switching to a shorter format for at least some of these episodes, so here's a little babble about rocking the boat with your holiday responsibilities, and putting yourself higher up on that list... <3
