Episode Description:

In this episode, we sit down with Lauren Roscopf, the creator behind @aloprofile, who shares how she walked away from a traditional 9–5 to build a full-time content career while raising two little ones. Lauren opens up about the messy middle of entrepreneurship, growing a loyal audience of nearly half a million across platforms, and what it really looks like to “do it all” as a mom.

We also talk about the loss she experienced between her two children, how it shaped her perspective, and why she’s so intentional with the content she shares. Plus, we get into her incredible eye for interiors and how she’s created a home that feels stylish and lived in.

Whether you’re a mom, a creator, or just trying to figure out your next chapter—this one’s full of honesty, heart, and really good takeaways.

Episode Description:
In this episode, we’re diving into how motherhood evolves—not just emotionally, but practically. We’re talking about how your time and your money shift as your kids grow. From the early days of diapers and sleepless nights to the school years packed with sports, activities, and new routines, we break down what these transitions really look like.

We share how we’ve experienced these shifts firsthand: where the hours go, how the budget reworks itself, and what each season demands from us. We also offer a few simple ways we try to buy back time, stay grounded, and give ourselves grace as we navigate the changing pace (and cost!) of motherhood.

Whether you’re in the thick of the baby phase or already managing multiple calendars and carpools, this episode is a reminder that you’re not alone—and that it’s okay to evolve with your kids.

What We Cover:

• The time-money-health triangle and how it shows up in motherhood
• Surviving the early years when time and energy feel nonexistent
• The school-age shift: new routines, new expenses, and a different kind of busy
• How the big-kid and teen years shift your role—and your wallet
• Time-saving hacks that help us reclaim pockets of our day
• Why motherhood requires strategic scheduling and emotional leadership

Segment Breakdown:

Intro:

• Quick catch-up between Christina and T (plus a shoutout to our recent episode with Courtney Cecil)
• Setting the stage: how motherhood evolves—and why time and money are two currencies that constantly shift

Segment 1: The Early Years – Survival Mode

• Running on fumes and cold coffee
• Diapers, babysitters, and buying every gadget in hopes of a little ease
• Feeling needed constantly, but somehow invisible

Segment 2: The School Years – A Shift Begins

• Gaining a sliver of time (but still on a tight schedule)
• Embracing mini windows of freedom like a barre class or coffee with a friend
• Preschool pickups, sports signups, and the start of structured chaos

Segment 3: The Big Kid & Teen Years – You’re the Ride, the Listener, and the Leader

• More independence for them = a different kind of work for you
• Your calendar becomes their calendar
• Bigger purchases replace daily small ones—travel teams, tech, and tutoring
• Reclaiming pockets of time with smart hacks (bring your laptop to practice!)
• Leading with emotional steadiness and quiet strength

Segment 4: What We’ve Learned

• “Time is currency. And so is money. And both shift dramatically in motherhood.”
• Tips for embracing the season you’re in:
  • Give yourself grace
  • Ask for help
  • Prioritize little moments for yourself—no matter your kids’ ages

🎀 Pink Spotlights:

T’s Pick: Showing Up Matters
T reflects on attending Voices, a moving event supporting the Jewish community and her dear friend Jessica. She shares the power of showing up for friends from all backgrounds—and how being present matters more than having the perfect words.

Christina’s Pick: Miss Mouth’s Messy Eater Stain Treater
We joke about the name (because it’s a mouthful), but this little bottle actually saves clothes—yours and your kids’. Every mom needs one in her arsenal.

Final Thought:
Yes, you can hack your schedule and stretch your dollars—but don’t forget: this is just a season. It won’t always be this full, this chaotic, or this tender. Give yourself grace. You’re not b
