Season 2, Episode 8 — Girls’ Trips, Hockey Superstitions & a Swear Jar?

In this episode, Courtney and Kristy kick things off with their ongoing tech struggles and the possibility of recruiting a student over the holidays to help keep them organized. The debate of the day: Should they start a swear jar for Kristy? (The verdict is… still pending.)


From there, the conversation moves into the magic of girls’ weekends. Kristy shares how she met an amazing group of women through her husband’s hockey friends—because in Canada, hockey really is the link to everything. Over the years, their little weekends away have grown into full five-day escapes, and Kristy explains how her most recent trip gave her the reset she desperately needed. Courtney even admits Kristy came back far less grumpy and way more productive.


They also talk about how even Courtney’s daughter and her friends love the “getting ready” part more than actually going out. It’s the chatting, bonding, and life-talk moments that matter most. Cue a debate about a Honda Pilot vs. a CR-V—strictly for the ability to fit more friends for future road trips.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Heard @ The Barre episode without a little hockey. The girls dive into hockey superstitions, including whether Starbucks cake pops are secretly powering the London Knights and Maks. At this point… should they rename the podcast Heard @ The Barre (and Hockey)?


They wrap up by sharing ideas for listeners who don’t have a built-in group for girls’ getaways—like joining a wellness retreat, including one Kristy recently experienced.


A cozy, chatty episode full of friendship, rituals, and the joy of taking time for yourself.
