Summary
In this episode of After Hours With Amanda, I’m talking about comparison, content creation, women judging women, motherhood, childfree conversations, working moms, stay at home moms, and what we teach our tiny queens when we tear each other down. This is a long voicemail about fake nails, ASMR rage, Comparison Katie, Julie Jealousy, losing my job in 2020, falling into content creation, and why someone else’s life does not have to threaten the value of yours. If comparison has been loud lately, come sit with me for a bit. We are doing our best.

| 0:00.0 | Okay, I want you guys to know that I had started recording in the episode got lost. |
| 0:07.1 | Literally, by episode, you're gone. |
| 0:11.1 | So this is me re-recording because I am dedicated to our time together. |
| 0:14.4 | Welcome back to After Hours with Amanda. |
| 0:16.4 | Should I change the name of the podcast and just call it 30-something? |
| 0:20.6 | I'm this close to calling it 30 something. |
| 0:22.6 | Because I feel as though we talk about so many things. And it definitely is on the parenting |
| 0:29.4 | spectrum for sure. But we talk about so much stuff that I just feel like it's like 30 something. |
| 0:33.7 | But then would only people think who they were for 30 year olds? |
| 0:39.5 | Also, why does everyone think your life ends at 30? |

| 1:02.1 | One of my friends called it 40 and fearless. Sign me up. It sounds like a movie trailer. |
| 1:10.7 | But on the side note, y'all, I would love to upload a video this week of us sitting and chatting together. Hold on one second. I'm taking a drink. |
| 1:18.3 | But the amount of just anxiety that I get doing the video podcast to find the quiet space, |
| 1:22.3 | to find the time, kept me from uploading one the last two weeks. So we're not letting week three go by without a new podcast. That is not happening to us. That is not she. That is not who we |
