This week, in what might be the funniest episode yet, Molly and Emese are joined by co-stars Amy Schumer and Brianne Howey. They get candid about motherhood, career evolution, and their new film, Kinda Pregnant —which unexpectedly led to Amy’s latest health discovery. Amy opens up about how public criticism led her to uncover her Cushing syndrome diagnosis, what it’s like to navigate comedy and Hollywood as a mom, and the importance of sharing birth stories without shame. Brianne shares how becoming a mother has shifted her perspective on work, how Ginny & Georgia ’s Georgia Miller compares to real-life parenting, and the power of female friendships in the industry. We also go behind the scenes of their new Netflix film, Kinda Pregnant —how Molly first got the script, why Amy and Brianne were drawn to the project, and what it means for women today. Plus, they reflect on their early career struggles, the moment they knew they “made it,” and how motherhood has reshaped their ambitions. From career highs to personal challenges, this episode is raw, funny, and packed with insights.

Life is full of challenges and obstacles, but how we respond to them defines our journey. Today, we welcome Rodney Flowers, who shares his incredible story of resilience after being paralyzed on the football field. Through his journey, he discovered powerful life lessons—golden pearls of wisdom—that helped him overcome adversity. His experience was a game changer, and in this episode, we explore how we can transform our own challenges into opportunities for growth and success.

He draws from his remarkable life experience and business expertise to help individuals, teams, and organizations build resilience, achieve their goals, and reach peak performance.

Doctors told him he would never walk again. But Flowers refused to accept that fate. With relentless determination, he pursued his goal to walk again—failure was not an option. Today, he is no longer wheelchair-bound. Since his life-changing injury, Flowers has earned a college degree, an MBA, and built a successful career with the U.S. Department of Defense.
