Description

What if your everyday chaos was proof that you’re doing more than enough?

In this episode, Amri Kibbler and Erika Hanafin share a funny, honest, and deeply relatable conversation about managing modern motherhood, co-parenting, and the little hacks they use to stay grounded amidst the chaos. From snackable workouts to navigating blended families, they unpack what it really means to “lean into being” in the thick of life.

Whether you’re running a company, raising a family (or both), this episode reminds you that structure and softness can coexist—and that you’re not alone in the mess.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why productivity isn’t always the answer—and how both hosts redefine daily wins through non-negotiables and routines that actually work.
• The different ways the “mental load” shows up in marriages, parenting, and even grocery planning.
• How Erika’s divorce and Amri’s cancer journey shaped new resources to support moms in tough seasons.
