Two podcasters I've listened to for YEARS are tackling a new series this summer on friendship (the topic on everyone's tongue). I was so excited to welcome Kristen Meinzer and Jolenta Greenberg from the How To Be Fine podcast (formerly By The Book) to the show to talk about their podcasting roots, their relationship as business besties, their experiment of living by the advice of self-help books, and their latest project on friendship.

Read MoreI have followed photographer Kate T. Parker on Instagram for years now and continue to be inspired by her depictions of her fierce and dynamic daughters (and their friends). I love seeing her raw and authentic sports photos since I have two little athletes in my house. You'll probably recognize Kate's work from her books Strong Is the New Pretty and Play Like A Girl.
In this BONUS episode, I wanted to chat with Kate about her origin story, her work, and especially her new book Force of Nature.
Read MoreOne of the things I've been working on personally this summer is examining and resetting some of the systems in my life, mostly professionally related, but also personally. Kevin Miller’s book and this conversation came at the perfect time. Identifying what motivates you can be such a key to your success.
Read MoreI met author Alli Worthington over a decade ago when we were both in the mommy blogging world, and I've long looked up to her as an entrepreneur and innovator in the online space. And while I was a mommy blogger back then who didn't write much about motherhood, Alli was creating conferences, writing books, and raising FIVE boys and a stepdaughter.

Read MoreCan men and women be "just friends"? Kerith & Lee are here to answer that OF COURSE they can. Their unique friendship story starts with a surgery that results in hours-long phone marathons and a friendship that stretches across time and gender roles.
Read MoreIn this busy season I’m so aware of how neglectful I can get about my own self care. When life feels crazy, the first thing to fall to the bottom of my priority list is ME. And I’m becoming increasingly aware of what I’m teaching my own children in this realm.
So when Toye Penny reached out to share 4 ways to “Model Well-Being for Generations to Come” I knew I needed to hear what she had to say. Toye shares helpful, thoughtful and practical ways to love the next generation by loving ourselves well first.
Read MoreI'm working on my next book, and while I can't give you too many details yet, I would love your help on one particular aspect:

This next project is all about friendship, and I'm collecting unique friendship stories that could potentially be used in the book or part of a podcast series on the same topic.
Read MoreThis BONUS episode is for anyone who wants to understand how influencers are making money every time you swipe up, or if you want to learn how to make that money yourself.
The truth is, a LOT of people you follow online, especially if they have any kind of a platform, they are using affiliate links. This can be an important part of your income stream if you are someone who creates content online. And some people are extra smart and savvy about it, like my friend and guest today Jessica Turner, from the blog The Mom Creative.

Read MoreThis episode is for anyone who struggles with her inner “good girl.”
I read Break the Good Girl Myth: How To Dismantle Outdated Rules, Unleash Your Power, and Design a More Purposeful Life by Majo Molfino this summer and the whole idea resonated with me: identifying as a good girl, wanting to be seen as a good girl, and simultaneously wanting to get out of that trap.
Even at 40-something, I am still dismantling these parts of my identity, and I could see myself - and so many of my friends - in the five different types of “good girls” that Majo writes about.
Read MoreWelcome to this BONUS episode of the 10 Things To Tell You podcast, I am so excited to share another author interview, especially because Myquillyn Smith - aka The Nester - has been someone I’ve followed online for YEARS and years, but we had never actually spoken until we recorded!
Myquillyn has influenced the way I think about my home through her blog and then social media and then her books, starting with The Nesting Place, and then the Cozy Minimalist Home, and now, her latest release this fall titled Welcome Home. Her book and our conversation revolves around decorating your home for the SEASONS without buying a bunch of expensive decor that you then have to store, and also signaling to yourself and to your family the cycle of the year - EVEN when you live in Southern California where the temperature doesn’t change much.
Read MoreIn this BONUS episode, Jenna and I talk through a few of the reasons white women statistically stay silent about important issues:
Laura Tremaine has 10 Things to Tell You.
I live in Los Angeles. I'm a reader, a podcaster, a wife, and a mom.
At all times, I have (at least) 10 Things To Tell You. And I know that YOU have 10 Things To Tell.
This place is about connection, with each other and with ourselves. We can only do this by opening our eyes and seeing others and (even harder) by letting ourselves be seen.
Let’s tell our stories.
Let’s share our stuff.
I’ll go first.
