🧊 #BadMumSquad | 👻 #SleepTightFrights

This week, Amanda sits down with a true hockey mum legend—Alysha, mum of four, including three hockey players, and married to the man who’s coaching all three… while also serving as the head coach for their hockey association. We’re not saying she runs on caffeine and adrenaline—but we’re not not saying it.

When she’s not in the stands, the locker room, or behind the wheel of her SUV-turned-equipment-van, Alysha’s diving headfirst into her next big adventure: launching her very own creepy podcast, Sleep Tight Frights.

👻 Yep, she’s swapping whistles for whispers—with spooky bedtime stories perfect for listeners who love a little chill before they sleep.

🎧 In this episode:

• The unfiltered truth about being married to “Coach Dad Supreme”
  
  
• How to survive when your life revolves around the rink
  
  
• Why launching a scary story podcast was the perfect creative outlet
  
  
• Balancing chaos, creativity, and cold arenas
  
  
• BONUS: A full episode of Sleep Tight Frights is included at the end!
  
  

If you’ve ever juggled a team schedule, snack duty, and spooky bedtime routines—this one’s for you.

📲 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you tune in.

💬 Tag a hockey mum who’s doing all the things (and maybe haunting the rink too).
