Babies, Boobs & Besties for 21 Years: A Kristen + Kelly AMA

⚠️ Trigger Warning: discussion of pregnancy loss Episode 172. This week, Kristen is joined by one of her ride-or-dies of 21 years, the fabulous Kelly Bores—visiting from Charleston, SC—for an episode packed with nostalgia, motherhood realness, questionable 2000’s fashion choices, and a dash of Golden Girls energy. Kristen and Kelly dive into Kaia’s very first Christmas, reflect on the magic (and exhaustion) of newborn life, and laugh their way through the evolution of… well, everything: - Their first tattoos (including the return of the tramp stamp??) - Boobs before and after baby - The “Raise Your Glass” VPR special—and a never-before-seen clip of Kristen she legit does not remember filming They get honest about: - How friendships shift after kids - How pregnancy and postpartum surprised them - How their relationship dynamics have changed since giving birth - Body image—especially why it’s important not to speak negatively about yourself around your kids - What Kristen actually moved to LA to pursue (and how old she was!) Plus: 🦃 Thanksgiving at Brittany’s 🍼 Must-haves for the newborn trenches ❓ A juicy Ask Me Anything This one’s cozy, candid, a little chaotic, and full of heart—like any great catch-up between best friends of two decades.
