I am so lucky to have such a close family, and I do not take it for granted. One of my favorite people EVER is my cousin, Jaclyn Braverman (Jackie, Wacks, Auntie Wacks, etc.). Our grandmothers were sisters, but she honestly is my fourth sister. The way she has shown up for me my whole life and especially when my dad died, is honestly indescribable. I am so excited for you to meet her! We talked about how we handle grief (she also lost her dad), her dating life, the debate of whether to freeze her eggs, and all her must-know hair product recs (SHE’S AN AMAZING HAIR STYLIST).       This episode is brought to you by Wandering Bear, Vince Camuto, Sackville & Co and Kean Health.   Wandering Bear is the best cold brew you can get without leaving your house.

When did loving yourself become so hard? So many people I know, including myself, are champions of self-doubt. UGH. When I learned about Jamie Varon, I knew we all needed to hear from her. Jamie is a writer, designer, digital course creator, and creative consultant! Jamie has never shied away from sharing the many authentic facets of being human—and her new book, Radically Content, is no different. Searingly honest, it chronicles Jamie’s journey from the depths of self-hatred, depression, and anxiety into the lightness of self-love, self-trust, and hard-won joy and happiness. During our chat, we talked about finding self-worth, how to not sabotage ourselves, genuinely listening to your needs, building self-trust like a habit, and so much more.   Her writing has been seen across the internet for over a decade, from her early days of personal blogging to features in Teen Vogue, HuffPo, GOOD, Complex, and many more. Over the years, her long-form essays and short-form prose have garnered millions of reads and views, using her signature style of combining personal stories with universal themes.     This episode is brought to you by Chime, Macy's, Just Thrive, and Evite.   Continue your credit journey with Chime.

I found Dr. Becky Kennedy on Instagram during the pandemic and loved everything she posted about. It hit home in so many ways. She is a clinical psychologist and mom of three, named “The Millennial Parenting Whisperer” by TIME Magazine, who’s rethinking the way we raise our children. She specializes in thinking deeply about what’s happening to kids and translating these ideas into simple, actionable strategies for parents to use in their homes. We talked about setting boundaries with our anxiety, tips for helping our kids sleep on their own at night, the best ways to argue in front of kids, and counteracting what you don't want to do because you don't know an alternative option and much more!   Dr. Becky's goal is to empower parents to feel sturdier and more equipped to manage the challenges of parenting. She recently launched a game-changing, first-of-its-kind platform, Good Inside Membership. It is a dynamic parenting hub that offers Dr. Becky’s complete parenting content collection, a judgment-free, like-valued community, and access to Good Inside-trained experts––all in one place.

I’ve been shopping at BANDIER for YEARS!! You know this if you shop my stories and website :) I jumped at the chance to speak with its founder, Jennifer Bandier. We chatted about the realities of building a business from the ground up, the power truly believing in yourself can have, and the trials she dealt with going through IVF.   BANDIER is a luxury, multi-brand, activewear retailer known for its premium selection of active and after-wear. It was only after a major foot injury that the idea for a multi-brand activewear store emerged, as Jennifer noticed a lack of such shops within walking distance—none of which carried the sort of elevated fitness apparel she was searching for. She opened the first BANDIER brick-and-mortar in Southampton the following summer of 2014. BANDIER is headquartered in New York, NY with store locations in New York and Texas, and Melrose in Los Angeles, as well as an e-commerce shop with global distribution.         This episode is brought to you by Macy’s, Perelel, Ettitude, and ThirdLove.   Macy’s has got everything you need to show off the newest version of you this spring.

Ugh, just thank gosh for Timmy and him being my co-host this week. We went on a trip to Florida to get away and see some family. We hit Miami, Palm Beach and the Keys. I love, love, love traveling and could do it constantly, especially to the water. Salt air, oceans, food, weather, the spontaneity - I just love it. However, there is a big difference between a true vacation and traveling with a toddler, which we classify as a trip. In this vacay recap, we shared how we dealt with the ups and downs of traveling with a kid, our favorite moments, TSA drams and packing tips. PLUS, I give you (and Tim) an update on where we are with IVF, AND we digress into a side conversation about our thoughts on plastic surgery- we don’t always agree but tune in. It’s fun. Also, don’t forget to head to whitneyport.com/florida-trip-2022 for a post on everything I wore, used and loved while traveling.

Thank you all so much for your unwavering support during this journey! Sharing a lot of very personal information can be really difficult at times especially when it’s the result of feeling pressure. In this instance, I feel very in control of what I am putting out there as I’m choosing when and how I want to share. I really wanted to record a couple of episodes about my specific fertility journey. I wish I had something like this to reference when I started the process. I hope this is helpful to those considering having kids or about to start looking into fertility. In this episode, I covered the details of testing I did to gear myself up for IVF, how all of the hormones affected me, what stage I’m at in IVF and the personal and financial costs this all has. I will continue next week with more on this journey!         This episode is brought to you by Modern Fertility, Macy's, Perelel, and ettitude.   Modern Fertility is offering our listeners $20 off a test when you go to ModernFertility.com/withwhit. That means your test will cost $139 instead of the several hundred or even a thousand plus dollars it could cost at a doctor’s office.   If you have very important plans to laze in the sun, then get your vacay necessities at Macy’s.
