They started a podcast because they were jealous of their  husband's hobbies. But more importantly, to chat with each other, and others, about the messy and memorable moments in life.

The Morning Meeting is a podcast creating an inclusive environment to normalize and amplify rarely talked about experiences.

As moms, wives, educators, and entrepreneurs, Sarah and Jess explore their female experience in a 
cozy atmosphere that’s inviting, funny and warm. 

It’s like you just sat down with two friends, poured a glass of wine or cup of tea, to have a laugh while talking about the real stuff.
