Hi, sweet friends! This Sunday Sweet Edit we head home from visiting family in northern Wisconsin today and, man… There is just something about being in the middle of nowhere where the air is crisp and clean and the stars shine so brightly at night. It’s a little slice of heaven.

Stay tuned tomorrow for our second Gift Guide! This time it’s all about the little ones…

Should a political candidate’s health come into play in term’s of his/her fitness to serve? Should it be public knowledge? Should presidential candidates be required to complete a cognitive test? Jay and I discuss (and disagree on) this issue. Plus, I share a Selena and Hailey update (DID YOU SEE THE PIC?) and we talk about a whole lot of 90’s nostalgia and a few Wait. What? moments…

The One With the 2024 Election – Brand New Information

It’s three days after the general election in America and the Democrats got trounced. Suzanne and Jay are here with a special episode to share their ideas about how the Dems have lost their way, the important changes that need to occur to realign the party, and the silver lining of it all. Plus: Joe Rogan, Bari Weiss, and Suzanne falls down the Diddy rabbit hole. Want more Brand New Information? Connect with us on Instagram @brandnewinformationpod + on Twitter @brandnewinfopodPlus!

On Monday, we had a solo episode! I answered your questions about cravings and anxiety, which led me to a discussion about counting days. Does it help you feel empowered in sobriety? If it doesn’t and instead feels punitive, this episode is for you.

Friday was another bonus episode with another “real mom,” Sarah. If you’re sober curious and aren’t exactly sure how alcohol fits into your life, I think you’ll find this conversation so helpful.

Ditching the Drink with Heather Lowe – The Sober Mom Life

Fellow Wisconsinite and sober coach Heather Lowe loved the way alcohol made her feel from a very young age. She kept her fears that she might have a problematic relationship with alcohol under wraps for decades, until a flurry of life changes and tragedies led to her begin to ‘drink her grief’ instead of feeling it. Heather wanted to blame everything but alcohol for the ways in which she felt like she was losing her grip, so much so that she began to try ‘sober experiments’ to prove to herself that alcohol wasn’t the problem. She was surprised to find, though, that she was feeling better and better during her periods of sobriety.Quitting for real felt terrifying. A longtime party girl, Heather couldn’t imagine losing friends through such a big life change. The honest truth was that she did lose friends, but she developed a much more important friendship along the way – a deep and meaningful friendship with herself. Now seven years sober, Heather works with women in all stages of sobriety to help them navigate their own sober journeys. She wants you to know: There is so much potential in sobriety.

what I wore last week…

(The only problem with my new Prada shearling slides? I can’t NOT wear them every single day. They’re too crazy comfy.)

Suzanne wearing a faux fur jacket and Pistola trousers

I shared this faux fur jacket in my Five Favorite post last Friday because it’s a hands down favorite. I wear it for everyday #momlife because why the hell not. My utility pants are on sale and a great jeans alternative. They’re high-waisted and super comfy.

Suzanne wearing an Anthropology cardigan and leggings

We sold out this gorgeous cardigan earlier this fall, but it’s been restocked! Some sizes are on preorder, but I highly suggest ordering it if you were bummed that you missed out on it the first time. I get compliments every time I wear it. I’m wearing XS.
