With Whit

I am making it my mission to surround myself with empowering women. It is so important that we lean on each other to lift up and motivate ourselves to do more! I walked away from my conversation with Meena Harris so freaking inspired. We cover everything from parenting to being of service to ambition and so much more. Meena is an attorney, author, mother, entrepreneur, founder of the groundbreaking Phenomenal Woman Action Campaign and is recognized as an influential voice for women's equality. Most recently, Meena was the Head of Strategy & Leadership at Uber. Additionally, she has advised major brands on corporate citizenship, social responsibility, and diversity and inclusion. In June 2020, Meena published her first book, children’s book Kamala and Maya's Big Idea, which is based on a true story from the childhood of Meena's mother and aunt. Next year, on January 19th, 2021, Meena will publish her second children’s book, Ambitious Girl.  Visit PhenomenalGirl.com to purchase Meena’s books, Kamala and Maya’s Big Idea and Ambitious Girl.     This episode is brought to you by KiwiCo.   KiwiCo is redefining learning, with hands-on projects that build confidence, creativity, and critical thinking skills. There’s something for every kid (or kid-at-heart) at KiwiCo. Get 50% off your first month plus free shipping on any crate line with code WITHWHIT at kiwico.com   This episode is brought to you by Jenny Life.   Jenny Life makes it FAST and EASY for women to know their families will be taken care of with life insurance that's uniquely built for your needs. Visit JennyLife.com/WHIT to get a free quote.   This episode is brought to you by Pique Tea.    Pique Tea delivers full spectrum health compounds from the finest teas and superfood plants to support healthy digestion, immunity, and calm energy.

WE ALL HAVE TO VOTE. After the first presidential debate, I was overwhelmed to say the least. I really wanted to talk with an expert about questions I had about where we are in politics and the election. Political strategist, Emily Tisch Sussman, and I discuss feelings after the debate, political anxiety, voting by mail, women’s rights, her hope in politics, the importance of holding your representatives accountable post election and so much more.  Emily has been at the forefront of executing strategy for the progressive movement in America for more than a decade. She is a leading democratic political strategist with over 200 appearances on MSNBC, CNN, Fox News, HLN, and CBS, and nearly 100 in the past year. Her views are also frequently featured in national news outlets including The New York Times, Newsweek, Reuters, and Politico. Emily is the host of popular politics podcast Your Presidential Playlist, formerly Your Primary Playlist, a guide to the 2020 presidential election that quickly became a must-listen for those tapped into politics. The podcast features all women guests including Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Stacey Abrams, and Cecile Richards, has received several features on Apple Podcasts and Stitcher, and was named one of Refinery29’s Best New Podcasts for 2020. She is also a member of the New York Bar, earning her J.D. from Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law.  Go to Vote.org for more information one how to vote. For more information on voting and politics, listen to Emily’s podcast, Your Presidential Playlist and follow her on Twitter @emtsuss and Instagram @yourpresidentialplaylist.  Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I cannot tell you how beyond grateful I am for my career. It has given me the ability to truly pursue my dreams like designing a clothing line and candle collection and it allows me to create this beautiful life with my husband, Timmy, and Sonny. However, my multi-faceted business brings along a number of stressors which can bleed into my personal life. During my chat with Kelsey Murphy, Business and Life Coach, we discuss how to battle that negative internal dialogue we all struggle with when we feel anxious and overwhelmed. She explains that by creating a Three Year Manifesto of your dream life you can prioritize what is most important to you in your life and business. Kelsey has worked with Fortune 500 companies, like Facebook & Twitter, industry thought leaders like Marie Forleo and her BSchoolers, as well as celebrity nutritionists, coaches, and other brilliant people creating meaningful businesses and lives. Her coaching work has been featured in Forbes, Business Insider, Huffington Post, LiveStrong, Living Healthy, and more. When Kelsey's not coaching, you can find her hosting the Whiskey & Work podcast giving her wise (and sometimes comical) advice on navigating the waters of business, life, and relationships.

As promised, here is more from my chat with Lauren Conrad! I feel like we could have gone for hours. In this episode, Lauren and I catch up on all things THE HILLS, our reality tv obsessions, motherhood and a really fun round of rapid fire questions! Enjoy! Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

By far the question I get asked the most is, “Are you still friends with Lauren?” For the longest time I would answer, “We are still friends, but we don’t really keep in touch.” That was the truth, but I also wondered if there was an issue between us that was unresolved. In part one of my two part talk with Lauren, I finally get to the bottom of it, plus so much more. Lauren and I went through something completely life-changing together, and when it was over we went our separate ways. Business, family, fame, life, everything that has happened since the show ended, and we’ve never talked about it. I don’t think I’ve ever had a more important catch up session. Lauren is a television personality, New York Times bestselling author, fashion designer and philanthropist. In 2009, she launched LC Lauren Conrad exclusively at Kohl’s. In 2013, she co founded The Little Market whose mission is to build sustainable partnerships with artisans around the world by connecting them with customers through an online marketplace and to empower women artisans to rise above poverty and support their families. AND, in August 2020, Lauren launched her beauty brand, Lauren Conrad Beauty. It is an eco-conscious brand that meets the desires of cosmetics consumers at a price point that everyone can enjoy without sacrificing quality. I attempted to up my eyeliner game with help from the eyeliner expert herself. We are getting into EVERYTHING. Hope you love! Visit JennyLife.com/WHIT to get a FREE quote right now.

Sonny is really testing us when it comes to sleep. He is delaying bedtime and waking up way too early. We needed major help! Timmy and I had a Zoom call with our sleep expert, Alanna McGinn, for some advice and tools. Yes, having a Sleep Expert may sound nuts, but you guys, sleep is EVERYTHING! If we utilize experts for our mental and physical, why shouldn’t we for something we do for half of our lives?? That is a rhetorical question.  Alanna is the Founder and Sleep Consultant of Good Night Sleep Site, Parent Prep Educator, Stress Management Coach, Director for the International Association of Child Sleep Consultants (IACSC), and serves on the faculty of the Family Sleep Institute. She has helped us sleep train Sonny since he was born and is a true savior. Everything she tells us to do works. We stick to her rules and Sonny adjusts so naturally. It’s actually really crazy. I hope all you parents find this conversation helpful!!
