  • SIDE-HUSTLE SUMMER W/ YOUR BEHIND THE SCENES BFF KATE

    SIDE-HUSTLE SUMMER W/ YOUR BEHIND THE SCENES BFF KATE
    May 27 2025
    This summer Kelly and Lizz are getting you your next side hustle. They'll be featuring women who have taken matters into their own hands and started a side hustle to bring some extra money home. They're kicking it off this week with Kate, creator of Your Behind the Scenes BFF to talk all things virtual assistants. But before that there are a couple things Kelly and Lizz must get into. That includes a short recap of Lizz's trip to Arizona and why it will probably be the last family trip for a while. In the meantime, Kelly is hacking her summer. First, she's organized her car specifically to include things she and the kids will need this summer. Then, she has made her kitchen into a fitness haven and is bringing her friends along for the ride! And a quick update on making a "to do" list for your husband... it works! Moving on to Kate, she explains how she got into the world of being a virtual assistant and how her background as a teacher led her to help others do the same. She talks about finding the skills you already have and making it work for a client. Plus, the importance of shooting your shot and how to determine your rate as a virtual assistant. Before she leaves, Kate gives us a super easy chili recipe for Ditch the Drive-Thru.

  • IT'S NOT NAGGING IF IT'S ON A LIST

    IT'S NOT NAGGING IF IT'S ON A LIST
    May 20 2025
    Lizz is getting ready for a vacation, her first with the whole family in a LONG time! Matty has been working for the last few family trips so it's sorely needed. But can Kelly survive without Lizz? Will Lizz survive the trip with the sudden onslaught of the terrible twos? At Kelly's house, she's preparing for George's impending birthday. This gives the ladies time to talk about birthday traditions. They discuss which ones they have begun for their kids and some of these ideas you're going to want to start for your kid's next big day! Speaking of advice, Kelly got some great marriage advice from her mother-in-law. If they aren't doing the chores you're asking them to do, put it on a list. Men are more likely to do it if it's written down because it's not nagging if it's on a piece of paper. In Last Three Transactions, Kelly and Lizz have been shopping as they get ready for summer. Kelly is preparing for the kids spending a lot of time at home with a pack of half cones, a fairy garden and an uncrustable maker. Meanwhile, Lizz is getting her yard ready with a new weed pulling device she can't stop raving about. Plus, colorful masking tape that will keep your kids entertained for hours and Matty's pajama find. Kelly is getting concerned for Nissan in Industry News. With all the stories of layoffs, plants closing and projects canceled, could this spell disaster for the car brand? Finally in Ditch the Drive-Thru, a listener submitted sausage recipe reveals Lizz's geography mix-up. Today's episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠Clean Simple Eats⁠⁠.

  • CROC GIRL SUMMER

    CROC GIRL SUMMER
    May 13 2025
    We need to talk about those Mother's Day expectations. Did you get to relax? If you've got young ones, the answer is most likely no. Once again, for Mother's Day Kelly just wants to be dad for a day. But not all was lost, she did get some new Crocs. Unfortunately, Tyler got her two pairs with the instructions to return the ones she didn't want. So her present just made more work. But speaking of Crocs, talk about a brand that has been able to adapt with changing trends. There are so many brands that haven't been able to do the same. Where are Juicy Couture and Tom's shoes? Speaking of trends, Kelly is predicting that the next big food trend is pistachios. Lizz needs to talk about the new version of Rodney Atkin's song "Watching You" with his now 23 year old son. Is this what she has to look forward to? It's making her dread the day her sons grow up and start to sing in cursive (which is a thing). Moving on to some more enjoyable moments in music, Kelly and Lizz are presenting the Model Line-up of kids songs that go hard! These are the ones that you don't turn off when it starts to play and the kids aren't around. Yes, there are a lot of Disney tunes on this list. Who had the better picks - Kelly or Lizz? George's birthday is quickly approaching and Kelly is giving up her "no birthday parties every year" rule and planning a big bash. Will there be a reptile guy? Yes! But please no gifts... Will anyone actually abide by that rule? Maybe it's time to give up that rule too because not everything is worth having a take on. In Industry News, the 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee is on the way and there is a lot to talk about. Plus, why not to freak out about the new car seat standards are nothing to freak out over. Finally, in Ditch the Drive-Thru a listener sent in a pineapple pork chops recipe that is perfect for summer. And stick around through the end for the Chat GPT hack you're going to want to use tonight! Today's episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠Clean Simple Eats⁠⁠.
