Mother UpAuthor: Gianna DeMedio Simon and Kacie McDonnell Hosmer
Were Kacie and Gianna: gal pals, champagne lovers, and two moms who think motherhood is the most rewarding job weve ever had. But, man, were we not prepared for some of the fine print in the job description. Specifically, balancing being a mom and being YOU. It seems society only allows women to be sexy OR covered in spit-up. But WE want to be both. We want a connection with our children and partner that doesnt come at the cost of the relationship with our own selves. We want to feel confident, beautiful, strong, vulnerable, nurturing, and bold. The connections weve made through our careers in media and our propensity to being social butterflies and collecting friends wherever we go means well bring you a wide range of guests that will add value to your physical, mental, and emotional toolbox.
