    Episode 18: Getting Used to a Body That Keeps Changing

    Our bodies are always changing, but it can feel different when you really start to notice it. In this episode, we talk about the different phases women move through, from puberty to perimenopause and beyond, and how our relationship with our bodies shifts along the way.

    Episode 17: Making Space for Creativity When Life Feels Heavy

    Lately, life has felt a little heavier than usual, and we’ve both been noticing how easy it is to push creativity to the side when things get stressful. In this episode, we talk about how we’re gently bringing it back in, without pressure or expectations. We share what creativity looks like for each of us right now, how it’s shifted over time, and why it feels less like a hobby and more like something we actually need. It’s not about doing it perfectly. It’s about finding small ways to reconnect with ourselves in the middle of everything.

    Episode 16: Motherhood, Grandmotherhood, and Everything We Don’t Know

    Braelyn is stepping into motherhood. Lynne is stepping into grandmotherhood. And neither of them pretends to have it all figured out. In this episode of Everything In Between, they talk honestly about entering a completely new chapter of life and what it feels like to navigate something you have never done before. They reflect on how knowledge used to be passed down through in-person communities, family, and close relationships, and how today’s parents are navigating a completely different landscape filled with endless information online. From advice overload to trusting your instincts, this episode explores what it means to learn in real time, ask questions, and figure it out as you go. It is a conversation about change, uncertainty, and stepping into something new without a roadmap.

    Episode 15: The Power of Mindset

    In this episode of Everything In Between, Lynne and Braelyn dive into the way our thinking shapes the way we experience almost everything in life. From business decisions to relationships to how we interpret challenges, mindset quietly influences how we move through the world. They talk about the stories we tell ourselves, the habits of thought that help or hurt us, and how small shifts in perspective can change the direction of an entire situation. This episode is about awareness, curiosity, and the power of choosing how you frame what happens to you. Sometimes the biggest change doesn’t come from changing your circumstances. It comes from changing how you see them.

    Episode 3: Lazy Girl Job or Healthy Boundaries?

    Do you really need to grind for 8 hours a day to prove you’re working hard? Or is there a smarter way to think about productivity? In this episode, Lynne (Generation Jones) and Braelyn (a millennial) explore the generational divides shaping the workplace — from the boomer “badge of honor” mindset of long hours, to millennials embracing efficiency, flexibility, and balance. We talk about the rise of “lazy girl jobs,” whether you can actually get 8 hours of work done in 4 focused ones, and the tools we use to set boundaries. It’s a conversation about hours vs. outcomes, boundaries vs. burnout, and how each generation can learn from the other to reimagine the future of work.

    Episode 1: If You Give A Mouse A Cookie

    Sometimes one small choice changes everything. In our very first episode, we (Lynne & Braelyn) dive into the “cookies” that set us on the paths we’re on today. For Lynne, it was running for mayor of her town: an unexpected leap that reshaped how she saw herself and her future. For Braelyn, it was picking The Sims back up during the pandemic, sparking a viral Simstagram account and a career she truly loves. Along the way, we laugh and reflect on how the smallest domino can lead to the biggest changes. Welcome to Everything In Between.
