Parenting, Phones, and Presence

Ever feel like life is flying by and you’re not sure what you’ve actually done? In this honest, unfiltered solo, K+L reflect on the past year, revisit disappointments, and redefine what their dreams look like now—reminding us that honoring who you’re becoming matters more than sticking to old plans.

K+L share their biggest breakthroughs of 2025, from building healthier relationships to resetting their mindset around money, success, and self-worth. You’ll also hear their communication tools for creating deeper intimacy, and how to finally align your choices with what you desire most.

This episode will inspire you to audit your patterns, confront what’s been left unspoken, and cultivate magnetic connection in your career, friendships, and romantic life.

We also talk about:

• The truth about productivity, overwork, and why rest still feels “off limits”  
• Relationship realities: how couples fall into roommate mode (and how to reignite real intimacy)  
• The honest conversation every couple should be having—treating your relationship like your most important investment  
• The power of hellos, goodbyes, and small moments to build trust + secure connection  
• Parenting in the phone era: what our habits are really teaching our kids (and ourselves)  
• Navigating personal + collective identity changes: stepping into a new you in 2026  
• Systems, scaling, and building a business that supports motherhood + freedom  
• Healing, spiritual awakenings, and listening to what your body is really telling you  
• Embracing the unknown, building resilience after disappointments, and liberating deeper self-expression
