Trusting Hope Again: Infertility, IVF, and Pregnancy Loss with Ashley Rose
Infertility and pregnancy loss touch so many lives, yet so much of the pain is carried in silence. There are appointments no one knows about, disappointing results, and questions that don’t have answers, all while work continues, friends announce pregnancies, and people ask how you’re doing. How do you keep showing up when you’re anything but “fine”? How do you let yourself hope again when hope has hurt this much? And how do you support someone you love through something you may never have experienced? In this episode of Twenty Something, Olivia sits down with Ashley Rose to talk about her journey through infertility, IVF, and the loss of her daughter, Ruby. After years of trying to become a parent, Ashley was six months pregnant when she learned at a routine appointment that Ruby had passed away. Ashley opens up about grieving the daughter she fought so hard to have, feeling angry at God, and finding her way forward with her husband. Together, Olivia and Ashley explore what it means to support someone whose pain you can’t fix, make room for joy without feeling guilty, and find the courage to try again without knowing how things will turn out. Ashley also shares the fear and hope that accompanied her pregnancy with her son, Rocky, and why finally bringing him home didn’t mean the struggle was over. She speaks honestly about postpartum depression, anxiety, and getting the help she needed. Whether you’ve lived through these experiences or want to better understand someone who has, this conversation is an invitation to look beyond “I’m fine,” show up for each other, and open yourself to the possibility of trusting hope again.

Her words were ultimately used in his sentencing, and today, her abuser is in prison.Gina opens up about the red flags she ignored in the relationship, the fear and manipulation that kept her stuck, the shame that made her hide what was happening from the people she loved, and the moment she looked in the mirror and realized she didn’t recognize herself anymore.Olivia and Gina discuss why people stay in relationships they know aren’t healthy, how people-pleasing can slowly teach you to ignore your own boundaries, what abuse can look like when there aren’t obvious signs from the outside, and how to support someone you love who may not be ready to leave.But Gina’s story doesn’t end with what happened to her. Olivia and Gina also talk about rebuilding confidence, learning to trust yourself again, strengthening your voice through small everyday moments, and deciding what you will and won’t accept in a relationship.

You Don’t Have to Lose Yourself to Become a Mom with Kylee Noorlander
Can I be a good mom and still miss my old life? Can I love my kids more than anything and still want time alone? Can I be ambitious, love my career, and not feel guilty for wanting something outside of motherhood?These are the hard questions so many moms ask themselves — and the ones we don’t always say out loud.In this episode, Olivia sits down with Kylee Noorlander, founder of Come Home Collective, to talk about what it actually looks like to become a mom without losing yourself in the process.Kylee became a mom at 21, and she opens up about loving motherhood while also grieving parts of the life she thought she would have in her twenties. Together, they talk about the guilt of wanting more, the pressure to be everything to everyone, the identity shift that comes with motherhood, and why taking care of yourself is about so much more than “self-care.”They also get into career and motherhood, comparison, nervous system regulation, learning to trust yourself, letting go of the life you thought you were supposed to have, and figuring out what you actually want your life to look like.Because maybe the question isn’t whether you can do motherhood perfectly. Maybe it’s: How do you build a life where you can deeply love your kids and still recognize yourself inside of it?Kylee recently launched the Come Home Method, a program designed to help women do exactly what this episode is all about: get more connected to who they are, what they need, and how they want to live.Twenty Something listeners can use code TWENTYSOMETHING for 20% off the Come Home Method.Follow Kylee on Instagram at @comehome.collective.

Richard is the author of Listen, Learn & Love: Embracing LGBTQ Latter-day Saints and has spent years listening to and sharing the stories of queer Latter-day Saints through his podcast, which now has more than 900 episodes and 8 million downloads.Richard shares how serving as a YSA bishop changed the way he understood and supported queer Latter-day Saints, and why listening to people’s lived experiences became such an important part of his own faith journey. Together, Olivia and Richard talk about shame, belonging, personal revelation, same-sex marriage, church participation, suicide prevention, allyship, and what it really looks like to become a safe person for the people around you.They also get into the questions that don’t always have easy answers: What do you do when someone you love feels like their identity and their religion are asking them to choose between two parts of themselves? How do we support people without trying to decide their path for them? What can we do to make our homes, churches, and communities safer places for queer people? And with rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation so high, what does meaningful support actually look like?This conversation isn’t about having every answer, but it is about listening better, loving people more deeply, and making room for honest questions, complicated experiences, and real faith.Connect with Richard: Instagram: @papa_ostler Podcast: Listen, Learn & LoveConnect with Olivia: Instagram: @twentysomething_podcast TikTok: @twentysomething_podcast YouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnett

How to Stay Informed About News and Politics Without Losing Your Mind with Spencer Joseph, 10x Emmy-Winning Journalist
Politics and the news can feel impossible to keep up with. There’s always another headline, TikTok, breaking story, opinion, or person telling you what you should believe; and sometimes trying to stay informed just leaves you feeling even more overwhelmed. So what do we do? A lot of us get overloaded and stop paying attention altogether.In this episode, Olivia sits down with 10x Emmy-winning journalist Spencer Joseph to talk about how to actually stay informed without letting the news, and all the emotions that come with it, consume you.Olivia and Spencer also talk about how algorithms shape what we see, why your social media feed can make one perspective feel like the only perspective, how to spot bias and lies, how to hear people you disagree with without abandoning your own beliefs, and why it’s okay to say, “I don’t know enough about that to have an opinion yet.”Spencer shares what he’s learned from years working inside the news industry, including how stories get reported, why breaking news rarely gives you the full picture, how to recognize more trustworthy sources, and why going back to original documents, videos, and reporting can completely change the way you understand a story.If politics stresses you out, you’ve stopped following the news altogether, or you just want to become a more thoughtful and informed person, this episode gives you practical ways to understand what’s happening in the world without letting it take over your life.Connect with Olivia: Instagram: @twentysomething_podcast TikTok: @twentysomething_podcast YouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnettConnect with Spencer: Instagram: @SpencerJosephTV
