Imperfect Inspiration: Recent Episodes
Brit Brown
Aspire to inspire but let's keep it real because we're all mad here! Tune in with Brit to discuss the bedlam involved in being millenial with a mid-life ADHD diagnosis managing multiple small businesses, raising five kids, and a marriage without (somehow) forgetting where she put her brain. Practical, honest conversations about how to manage being a neurodivergent millennial in a world that celebrates and rewards toxic productivity and achievement.
Others: How did you meet your husband?
Me: Oh he was deployed in Iraq and I sent his friend a boob pillow and he wanted to know who sent it to him.
This story and more with my incredible Guestpert Amanda DeMaris who is not only a military spouse of a deployed soldier but an Army Veteran herself. Listen in as we dish about some of our favorite and not-so-favorite military stereotypes and why going to Disney six weeks on a whim is always a great idea.
We dish all about being milspouses and all the magic of the hurry up and wait life we've come to love. Come dish with us.
Love,
The Management

One of the funniest humans I know stopped by to talk about all things comedy and musicals and collegiate sorority skit making and frankly I couldn't be more thrilled! Cass Maher is an absolute force of nature when her knees allow her to be. Not only does she write, perform, and promote improv and sketch comedy in Chicago, she travels to perform and is all the things I want to be when I grow up.
Listen to us chat about how she got started, why she stans Kate McKinnon, and despite being low-key obsessed with musicals, why she boycotted the Tony's this year. Be better, Broadway. Be better.
Love,
The Management

Cass says, "New(ish) musical I listen to on repeat: Dear Evan Hansen. Okay so this is actually my guilty pleasure musical because the play is problematic af. Hot take: Evan Hansen is actually the irredeemable villain..... but the music is phenomenal."

Jake swoops in to save the day with a last minute podcast about all the things Team Brown. We play the Newlywed Game and roast our kids ranking them in order of worst to meh. Don't worry, we love them. But also...kids are a mess. We should probably just get that out of the way now.
We talk about why Britney is abysmal at video games, where we'd like to travel again someday, and why our house is ALWAYS so loud. Does that ever go away? We hope so.
Love,
The Management.

Pour yourself a drink and pull up a chair! In this episode of Love, The Management we dissect what it's like to live with neurodiversity. What it's like to raise kids with and build our lives around Autism, ADHD, OCD, Tourette's, and various other neurological disorders that make our families uniquely fantastic. From everything to crappy trick or treat traditions to Sherlock Holmes, we're breaking down what it's like to live on the other side of "normal". Because we're all mad here.
Love,
The Management.
