This week on Doing It All, we’re joined by Shanika Hillocks—brand strategy and marketing consultant, storyteller, and true multi-hyphenate. Her career journey is a masterclass in trusting the pivot.

We talk about how her roots in hospitality laid the groundwork for everything that followed, from top agencies to building a brand of her own. Shanika opens up about navigating transitions with intention, the power of storytelling as her throughline, and why betting on yourself isn’t just a moment, t’s a mindset.

A warm, honest, and inspiring conversation that reminds us “doing it all” looks different for everyone and that’s exactly the point.

This week we’re live from the steps of City Hall with Council member Chi Ossé--NYC’s youngest City Council member, and a force who’s gone from protests to politics without missing a beat.
Before City Hall, he was a prominent voice in the BLM movement. Now? He’s passing major legislation like the Fare Act, challenging the status quo, and redefining what leadership looks like.
We talk:
The transition from activist to elected official
The pressure of making real change from inside the system
His go-to local restaurant
The one law he wishes he could pass (spoiler: you’re gonna want it too)
NYC didn’t get quiet for this one but Chi’s message cuts through the noise. He’s doing it all and doing it his way!

This week on Doing It All, we’re joined by the powerhouse duo behind one of the biggest true crime podcasts out there—Mandy and Melissa of Moms and Mysteries. These two are not only full-time podcasters, they’re moms, now longtime friends, and genuinely hilarious humans. In this episode, we talk about what it really looks like to juggle parenting, podcasting, and friendship (spoiler: it’s not always graceful, but it is real)
They share how they went from meeting at a moms group to recording on one mic at a kitchen table. And now, years later, they’ve built a chart-topping podcast with a fiercely loyal following. We also dive into the cases that have stuck with them the most, how they balance the heavy content with humor, and the behind-the-scenes moments that keep their friendship strong. And of course… we had to detour into a little Real Housewives of Potomac tea, like Boston tea party level ☕️
If you love true crime, honest conversations, belly laughs, and women carving their own path, this episode is a must-listen.

This week, we’re talking about what it really looks like to try and plan your peace. How we attempt to manage self-care, meltdowns, and the endless chaos of life like they’re just another task on our calendar.
From the Sunday reset that never resets anything, to the moments we realize we’ve hit our limit mid-laundry… this episode is a little funny, a little too real, and a lot of yep, I’ve been there.
Plus, we share a few listener stories that reminded us: you’re not alone if the only thing you’ve “accomplished” this week is keeping it together.

This episode starts off... a little different. Let’s just say the universe gave us some unexpected background noise and we decided to roll with it. (You’ll hear it. You’ll know.)
We’re back with just the two of us and we really brought the chaos this week! In this episode, we’re talking everything we’re loving right now from cozy products to the music we have on repeat. We also dive into four MESSY listener letters that involve third wheel drama and secret job offers.
This one is pure fun and we know you’re going to be screaming right along with us.
