Planned-ish is the parenting podcast for people who love a good plan… but also know life rarely follows one. Hosted by Alexandra (planner, mom of twins, hosting enthusiast) and her husband Joe (reluctant co-host, golf & football guy, hilarious dad), this show brings real talk, big laughs, and zero judgment to the beautiful chaos of modern parenting.
Every other week, we unpack the mess and magic of raising kids, managing relationships, navigating careers, and keeping your sanity somewhere in between. With recurring segments like The Debrief and the Elite-ish 8, we bring the kind of conversations you’re already having at home or late-night texts with your friends.
Expect guests who do cool things, actually helpful insights, and a podcast that’s fun, real, and never takes itself too seriously — because parenting isn’t perfect, and we’re not pretending it is.
Let’s figure it out as we go — Planned-ish style.
