We love a good vision board moment… but sometimes? You can’t soft life your way to hard goals, so put in the reps, sis!

This week, we’re talking about the sweet spot between soft hustle and hard results: staying consistent when it’s boring, why “thinking like a man” doesn’t mean becoming one, and the mindset shifts that keep us moving when life feels meh.

From Laura’s “women be women but with male mentality” hot take, to Leni’s second-time-around baby registry reality check (spoiler: TikTok lies), we’re diving into:

✨ Manifestation with momentum
✨ Consistency as the ultimate flex
✨ The TikTok buys that flopped and the ones that actually slap
✨ The Aspire podcast ep that has us rethinking the work we really put in (shoutout to @aspirewithemmagrede and host @emmagrede for the inspo)

Whether you’re chasing that next career move, chasing toddlers, or chasing clarity, you’ll feel seen in this one.

Job interviews, baby bottles, and a sprinkle of identity crises, served warm with a side of figuring it out.

In this week’s episode, Laura and Leni catch up on all the beautifully messy things happening behind the scenes: prepping for baby number two, navigating post-layoff job interviews, leaning on ChatGPT like a situationship (questionable but comforting), and juggling job apps and baby bottles like it’s an Olympic sport.

We’re talking:
✨ How to shift your mindset around uncertainty
✨ The magic of perspective (and showing up for yourself)
✨ Why manifestation actually works better with action
✨ And how even the messiest weeks can teach you something

Plus, Leni shares takeaways from “You Are a Badass” by Jen Sincero, a book that’s giving off major “what you send out comes back to you” energy.

Whether you're applying to jobs, deep in your wellness era, or just trying to make sense of 3,000 Amazon baby registry items, this one's for you.

We didn’t plan this. But maybe that’s exactly the point.

In our very first episode, we’re unpacking how unexpected change, "hi, layoffs" pushed us to create something we actually believe in.

We talk about what it means to be two Latinas navigating career pivots, identity shifts, and the messy, magical middle where clarity isn’t guaranteed, but connection always is.

Wait… What’s Next? was born out of uncertainty, but it’s rooted in honesty, humor, softness, and real conversation.

This is our story and the beginning of a space for the in-betweeners, the soft hustlers, the big feelers, and anyone asking what comes next.

We don’t have it all together, but we’re showing up anyway.
