The Plus Side-ish Podcast

This week, we’re diving back into 90s childhood — a magical time when kids roamed the neighborhood like semi‑supervised raccoons, drank Capri Suns like electrolytes, and learned all their life skills from cartoons that probably shouldn’t have been teaching anything. We’re unpacking the chaos: Dial‑up warfare, off‑brand snacks, and the kind of “go play outside” parenting that built character… and q...

Episode 9 is pure unfiltered mom‑life mayhem: 75 false starts, glowing legs, broken equipment, and two best friends trying (and failing) to act like they have it together. Between toddlers screaming “HELP!” over empty snack bowls, feeding Babybel cheese to the TV, swallowing gum like it’s a hobby, and debating whether the sky just “needs a nap,” this episode is a beautiful disaster. No plan, no po...

Episode 8 is… a journey. Not a straight line, not a circle — more like a toddler’s scribble with safety scissors. We bounce from haircuts to our beloved hairdresser to bizarre hobbies nobody asked about, and somehow end up on the Funny Farm of life with absolutely zero transitions. It’s unhinged, it’s random, it’s peak Plus SideISH: a whole lot of everything and somehow still nothing at all. If yo...

Whether you're grieving a person, a pet, a job, or just the fact that yo...

In this episode, Leah tackles the exhausting reality of grown-up chores—from laundry that multiplies like gremlins to dishes that somehow reappear five minutes after you finish them. She breaks down why “soaking” is just code for “I gave up,” and why vacuuming is the only chore that actually respects your time. You’ll hear stories of stair-related soap disasters, cleaning-induced identity crises,...

Halloween in August? Leah says yes—with cobwebs, confidence, and a scarecrow named Gary. In this delightfully defiant episode of Plus Side-ish, we explore the dopamine-fueled joy of premature spooky season, the science behind seasonal rebellion, and why decorating early is less about timing and more about unapologetic self-expression. From fog machines in the living room to emotional support ghoul...

Welcome to The Plus Side, where chaos meets charm and real life refuses to be filtered. In this debut episode, Leah talks about why this podcast exists, what “the plus side” actually means, and how embracing the mess can be the most joyful rebellion of all.
