Send us Fan MailSit down with the founders of 'Mom Brain Media' to find out what it really means to build a brand and a life without relying on outdated “bro sales tactics,” and instead lean into authenticity, intuition, and connection. This is a conversation about trusting your voice, owning your story, and creating in a way that actually feels aligned.These women challenge the narrative around “mom brain,” reframing it not as forgetfulness, but as expansion. Motherhood sharpens you, deepens you, and stretches your capacity in ways that make you more powerful, not less.What does it really mean to “market like a mother ... ”? How do you build something meaningful while raising a family, carrying the mental load, and still holding onto your own identity?This episode is for the woman who knows she’s capable of more and is ready to build it her way.Special Thank You to Our Alpha Cat SponsorA HUGE shout-out to Kava Culture Lewisville.Kava Culture Lewisville is a place to gather, unwind, and experience an alcohol-free environment rooted in tradition and intention.Learn more: https://kavaculture.com/lewisvilleMidroll commercial credit: Ti King To keep prowling visit @galontheprowl on Insta and YouTube or stop by our website www.GalontheProwl.com

Send us Fan MailIn this powerful and intimate episode of Gal on the Prowl, host Jessica Spawn sits down with filmmaker and film educator Natasha Paris for a conversation every woman needs, especially during the holidays.While the season is often portrayed as cheerful and full of connection, many women experience it through the lens of grief, loss, and quiet heartache. This episode explores what happens when the holidays don’t look like the movies, and how we can better support the people we love (and ourselves) during those moments.Jessica and Natasha share a rich creative history dating back to 2011. Their journey has included film festivals, creative wins, setbacks, and even traveling to Paris, France for Filmapalooza... but this episode focuses on something deeper than filmmaking.In this conversation, we talk about:• Navigating grief during the holidays• How to support someone experiencing loss (without saying the wrong thing)• Letting go of the pressure to “be okay”• Friendship, creativity, and showing up with compassionJoin the conversation! If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and share it with someone who might need it. You never know who’s quietly struggling this season.Follow 'Gal on the Prowl' for more heart-led conversations, creativity, and real talk.Special thanks to Modern Acupuncture for being our Alpha Cat Sponsor.
