Mad Women Podcast Episode eight || Calm In a Time of COVID

Keep Calm, Cabernet On

Well, we can all say with gusto that it’s been one hell of a week. It feels like the new normal changes every five to ten minutes. Amidst the uncertainty of the present, we’ve been finding new opportunities to sink into ourselves and connect with the people we love the most.

The truth is that chaos is always kind of constant, it’s just setting a new bar for itself today. We admire chaos’ ambition. We all will need to find that fire in ourselves to keep the peace even when things feel like they’re falling apart. Cue our latest guest, Sophie Collins, who is a professional peacekeeper amongst many other things. A saleswoman by day at Slack, an entrepreneur and lifestyle blogger by night with her latest venture One Wednesday co-founded with Joni Lind, and a full-time mom, Sophie knows a thing or two about finding self and sanity in the eye of a storm.

Sophie sits down with us to chat balance, organic sleep remedies (unfortunately we’re all out of prescriptions), and the truth about women’s health. And of course, a little COVID is peppered into there too.

One of the blessings in the current global crisis is the time we’re taking now to do the things we never found time for; calling our grandparents, talking that long walk in the forest (if that’s your jam), reading the book that’s been sitting on your shelf for the past year, and of course, drifting into a fresh landscape of podcasts. Oh, and wine. We’re still enjoying wine.

We hope you take a moment tonight to listen and sink into your one, rad self.
