Summary
In this week’s episode, Gretchen shares the very surreal, very emotional news that she is having a baby boy, and why this pregnancy already feels so deeply connected to Moose, motherhood, and the little god winks along the way.
She talks about trusting her mom intuition, the sweetness of their gender reveal with Lennon, nursery plans, and the wild reality that motherhood can make you softer and more sentimental, but also a little more feral when it comes to protecting your babies.
Gretchen also shares why she is sunsetting the podcast for now, and leaves listeners with the big reminders she wants them to carry forward: don’t be a dick, but have a backbone, stop letting other people’s opinions infect your life, don’t settle for the wrong person, stop arguing with people committed to misunderstanding you, and remember that confidence is built through evidence, not affirmations.
It’s emotional, honest, a little chaotic, and very Gretchen. A soft pause, not a goodbye.

| 0:03.8 | Motherhood has made me like a raging bitch. |
| 0:07.3 | For right now, I'm going to sunset this podcast. |
| 0:10.0 | Don't be a dick, but have a fucking backbone. |
| 0:15.5 | D-bad, baby. |
| 0:16.7 | That stands for don't be a dick if you're new here. |
| 0:18.8 | And we're not sugar-coating shit. |
| 0:20.3 | So let's get into it, shall we? |
| 0:25.7 | Hi, my gals. |
| 0:28.5 | How are we doing? |
| 0:29.1 | By the time you listen to this, you know that I'm having a baby boy. |
| 0:33.2 | I am so excited. |
| 0:34.8 | It is so surreal to say that, like, I'm going to have a son. Troy is like my son. I'm going |
| 0:40.1 | to have a son. He was dead set that it was a girl. I was dead set that it was a boy. You always trust |
| 0:46.2 | the mom. You always trust the mom's intuition. We didn't find out Lenin's gender until birth. |
| 0:50.9 | And I painted the ceiling of her nursery pink like this room. It's actually a color |
| 0:55.7 | called Dead Salmon, which is a terrible name for a fucking paint color, but it's a gorgeous pink. And Troy was like, what if it's a boy? I was like, there is zero percent chance that it is a boy. And for everyone, it's like, you know that gender. No, I fucking didn't. No, I didn't. So anyway, when I got pregnant, I was like, |
| 1:11.8 | I just have a feeling that this is a boy. And when I saw our first ultrasound, I said, that is a baby boy. And I said the exact same thing with Lenin. Like, when Lenin was like a little blub, like so, so, so small, I said, that's a girl. And when I saw this baby, I said, that is a boy. It was so fun. |
| 1:28.4 | The gender reveal was so beautiful. Colleen, our photographer, absolutely nailed it. And so did Lennon. I was so shocked. We didn't even like practice or anything. We did the thing where I made a pink bouquet and I made a blue bouquet. And then Colleen, the photographer, I gave her my phone. I was like, click this test result, |
| 1:45.2 | look at it. It should say like fetus sex and she's like, oh my gosh, I've done this before. And so she looked at it and handed Lenin the blue bouquet. And Lenin like walked right up to us. And it was like the most perfect thing in the entire world. I said in my newsletter, I was like, I was so shocked because not finding out with Lenin until birth was so fun. |
| 2:04.4 | I literally... entire world. I said in my newsletter, I was like, I was so shocked because not finding out with |
