Hey YOU!
I’m going to keep this one short and sweet. I’ve missed you! It’s tough to find time for writing! It’s tough to find time for living! I’m officially the mother of a one year old! Life is wild! Blah Blah Blahhhh.
I'm writing you today to say hiiii and to tell you about a new project I’ve been working on with my bff Tessa (of The Sobremesa) that we are super excited to share with the world. Can you guess what it is? Okay, okay I’ll just tell you. We’re launching a Podcast called Plus One!
Tell Me More!!!!
Okay! Well this idea has been brewing for years (truly) but over the past five months, Tessa and I have reaaaaally dialed into a lot of feelings together in the midst of some major individual and collective life moments. One day we’ll write a Freaky Friday spin-off where two best friends - a single 30 something year-old living in the big city and her married, new mom counterpart, switch places for a day… But for now, a podcast will have to do! Maybe we’re just obsessed with each other and delusional, but we really believe the ideas that are flowing between us are meant to be shared. We’ve been craving a medium that speaks to us – two mixt women who are navigating some real life shit, while remaining steadfastly determined to celebrate sisterhood, self-growth and full-frontal (as in nudity and unrestrained) joy.
Plus One is a snapshot into this time of our lives - as we navigate being in our 30s, dating, motherhood, friendship, break ups, break downs, the patriarchy, family dynamics, distance, career confusions, identity questions, and so many mixed feelings (nbd).
Expect to cry. Expect to laugh. Expect to feel like you’re at an adult slumber party with your best friends.
And you can find us doing the damn thing right here - as an All Mixt Up production. I’ll still be writing newsletter posts, but this is another thing to add to the mix. We have no idea where this project takes us, and that’s the most exciting part. As subscribers, you’ll automatically have access to all podcast-related content. Episodes will drop weekly on Substack, starting mid-February.
Now excuse us while we figure out how to produce a podcast between now and mid-February…
Are you as excited as we are??? Hope so!
Love,
Jesse & Tessa
