Two Moms. Two Kids. Too many reasons to give two shits. Alysia and Sarah share a love of motherhood, cocktails, and sitting down for some real talk. They created the Hitting the Bottle Podcast for parents who need to be reminded that they’re not alone with their thoughts. Sometimes it’s hard to talk about the darkness that comes for some during maternity leave or the fact that you actually don’t want to spend every waking second with your child. We all experience different forms of happiness, sadness, and anxiety - so you don’t have to be a parent to listen and join in on the conversation. BUT we will be talking about vaginas a lot. Because those things are the gateway to creation!
This week Sarah + Alysia talk about sex, gender + (how it's) bullshit! For so long we’ve been separated by social constructs built by each other. To categorize, to regulate, to identify and to ultimately discriminate. This week we sit down to talk about gender roles and their roles in our current society. Spoiler: we don’t believe in gender qualifications and don’t believe any one person must fall into any one category.

Body Talkin'
Trigger Warning: This week's episode speaks heavily about eating disorders and mental health.
After exposing and evoking Alysia's arachnophobia, talking about their 4th of July plans, and some other nonsensical chatter - Sarah + Alysia continue to touch on some hard conversations inspired by a post by @soyouwanttotalkabout. Attempting to destigmatize 'taboo' topics, this week's conversation surrounds Eating Disorders. Sarah goes into some detail about her experience and her new journey into recovery and how difficult it is to just have a body and exist in our society today.
