COOL MOMS is a bi-weekly podcast hosted by Elise Peterson featuring mothers who prioritize their passions. "We're not like regular moms; we're cool moms."
Kara Brothers is working on not always getting it right. Which may be a bit of a challenge for the mother of two who, as the President of Starface, has spent nearly the last 4 years boldly ushering the company into cult-like success. Kara and I sit down and discuss what it means to honor all of her different facets, the loneliness of struggling with her mental health postpartum, and how honoring her childlike self with an insatiable sense of yearning keeps her going. (We both really geek out over one another…listen until the end for me embarrassing myself gushing over Kara and our “Ask A Cool Mom” segment)

EP 42- Work Doesn't Come First with Ryan Norville
"If I could daydream it, I could make it happen," shares Ryan Norville on our zoom call that felt like two old friends reconnecting. The artist and owner of floral design studio, Oat Cinnamon, never thought she would be working with florals for a living. The Harlem born mom of two spent the beginning of her career being challenged with balancing corporate life and her personal, spiritual practices. Norville chose taking the path of integrity and intentional growth when she decided to bootstrap her business. Listen in as Ryan and I spend much of the call giggling, discovering parallels between our life philosophies and professional trajectories, and what it means to dream in order to create.
