What do you do when you simply don't feel like showing up? In this episode of The Hats Podcast, Melissa Dumaz and Kerri Harper-Howie tackle a reality that every ambitious woman, leader, parent, and professional eventually faces: the days when motivation is low, energy is depleted, and yet life still expects you to show up.

202: The Small Talk Hat
Small talk. Argh, right?! Most of us do it. Many of us dislike it. Yet somehow, it remains one of the most important social skills we use in our personal and professional lives. Small talk is a bridge that helps people move from strangers to genuine connection. So, let's talk about small talk: how to make it easier and do it better. Melissa shares why small talk can create anxiety for her as a th

199. What the Guys Said About Season 8
Season 8 was different than all the others. So, we had to mix things up for our closing episodes as well. Episode 198 was all about the highs and lows of Season 8 from co-host Melissa and Kerri's perspectives.

197. The Work/Life Balance Hat - He Said
Men balance life differently than women ... at least our husbands, Khalel and Sanford, do. They even see the need to balance through a different lense. So, co-hosts Kerri & Melissa thought the Hatters could benefit from hearing how they balance their busy lives and careers with our busy lives and careers. They shared some insights even we had not thought of. Listen in so you can get them too! Conn

196. The Good Gift Giving Hat
You've made it through Black Friday (which is not a full week!) and Cyber Monday. So, you may already have gotten all the gifts you will purchase this holiday season. But, if you are still trying to figure out the perfect gift for that last person on your list, this is the episode for you. Co-hosts Melissa and Kerri share some best bets on how to be a thoughtful gift giver, and how to gingerly rec

Connect with us: Facebook Twitter Instagram thehatspodcast@gmail.com Thank you for listening! We tip our hats

194. The Black Man Hat
After George Floyd died, co-hosts Kerri and Melissa felt compelled to record The Black Woman Hat. It is one of the shows most listened-to episodes of all time, and for sure one of the most emotionally raw. On this episode, the co-hosts welcome their husbands to share about being Black men in America - the ups, downs, stereotypes and everything in between. If you've ever wanted real and authentic i

In our busy lives, having a hobby becomes vital. Hobbies decrease stress, increse confidence and can expand your horizons.

Connect with us: Facebook Twitter Instagram thehatspodcast@gmail.com

192. The Date Night Hat
Everybody loves a good date night. And YET! Everybody struggles at times to consistently plan and execute them.

Listen to co-hosts Kerri and Melissa dish about dat

191. The Relationship Evolution Hat
Change is inevitable. For better or worse, change also impacts relationships. Individual interests and ideals change, finances change, family structure changes, and the list goes on. The Relationship Evolution Hat explores what happens to relationships over time and how they can evolve. Listen in as co-hosts Kerri and Melissa welcome their husbands for another episode to talk shop. Connect with u

190. The Role Model Hat
Last week we talked fatherhood, and sometimes fathers are important role models in our lives. But, a role model can come in many shapes and sizes. In this episode, co-hosts Kerri and Melissa explore what it means to serve as a role model (whether you choose to be or not), and how to find one when you need one. Connect with us: Facebook Twitter Instagram thehatspodcast@gmail.com Thank you for list

189. The Fatherhood Hat
Melissa and Kerri both had fathers that were absent for much of their childhood and all of their adulthood. To have active and wonderful fathers in their own households has been a beautifil experience. Listen to their husbands, Khalel and Sanford, talk about their experiences as sons of actively involved fathers and fathers to multiple children. This is a fun and enlightening episode for anyone wh

188. The Reconciliation Hat
Are forgiveness and reconcilitation the same thing? Not quite. While both are extremely important to healthy relationships - which inevitably experience hurt and rifts - they can be quite distinct processes with very different outcomes. If you've struggled with moving past pain in a relationship, go back and listen to episode 24 The Forgiveness Hat, and then fast forward and list to this episode.

187. The No Agenda Hat - VP Kamala Harris
Black women are having a moment. Asian women are having a moment. Women are having a moment. The United States is having a moment! Vice President Kamala Harris earned the nomination of the Democratic party and is now running for POTUS! This is a MOMENT!! We are excited to introduce The No Agenda Hat series. In each of these episodes, co-hosts Kerri and Melissa will take a beat to talk and record w

186. The Things We Need to Say Hat
We shared recently about the devastating loss of dear friend of The Hats Podcast, Waraire Boswell. His passing reminded us that life is short and we have limited opportunities to say all the things we need to say. So, we tried in this episode to capture some of the messages we want to convey to some of the most important people in our lives. We get raw and vulnerable in this episode. We hope to in

185. The Peer Pressure Hat
At your first high school party, someone passed around red cups holding "punch". When you put the cup handed to you up to your mouth, your nose tells you that this is no ordinary punch! What do you do? What about when the joint is passed around outside the office party? Or, when you go shopping with girlfriends and everybody else is spending amounts of money you know you don't have? Peer pressure

184. The Layoff Hat - The Laid Off Said
"Honey, I got laid off." The words are said. What happens next? Co-hosts Kerri and Melissa's husbands share what happened to them after they had to utter these words ... more than once. Listen in to find out what Kerri and Melissa did right and wrong when they found out their husbands had been laid off, and how both households managed to get to the other side of layoffs that impacted their lives.

183. The Lay Off Hat - The Partner Said
It's a moment so many adults dred - you have to walk into your home or get on the phone and inform your partner or loved one that you have been laid off. What happens in that moment can be groundshifting for any relationship. Will an earthquakegive create a divide in the relationship and household that cannot be bridged? Or will the earth squeeze together creating a mountain you agree to climb tog

182. The Chief Household Officer Hat
CEO. CFO. CMO. CHO? What is a Chief Household Officer? Co-hosts Melissa and Kerri explore this concept in this episode. Households do not run on their own. Somebody has to drive the ship. Sometimes it's one person, in other households there are co-CHOs. Listen in to find out how things flow in Melissa and Kerri's homes, assess how your your household functions, and decide if you want to keep thing

181. The Honeymoon Hat

Melissa and Kerri have very different honeymoon stories. Listen in to hear how they honeymooned, and get

180. The Perspectives Hat
As they say, perception is reality. Your perspective in life, how you see the world, is based on how you choose to perceive things around you. Do you view things through the lense of a victim? Do you assume that people around you are there to support you? Do you see the glass as half-empty or half-full? Does your perspective differ based on the environment in which you find yourself? Listen to Ker

179. The Wedding Hat
Wedding bells are ringing! Actually, neither Kerri nor Melissa got married in churches where said bells would likely ring. They have very different wedding stories, but they have each yielded marriages the co-hosts feel blessed to be in. Listen to their wedding stories and get tips you can use when planning your wedding, being in someone else ceremony or sending off your child in matrimony. Connec

178. The Engagement Hat
It's been decided - you can't imagine life without this person and you want to get married. Yay! It's an exciting time. But, how do you get from that thought to the ring on the finger? Kerri and Melissa's husbands, Sanford and Khalel, joined them for The Engagement Hat. Listen in to how these guys proposed and get some tips to figure out if you (and your partner!) are ready to pop the BIG QUESTION

177. The Supportive Partner Hat
The new component to this season - Kerri and Melissa will welcome their husbands for evey guest episode! It's a big twist, and maybe a little bit of a gamble. But, we are excited to share more from the guests whose episodes have gotten the most listener downloads than anyone else. In the Supportive Partner Hat, Kerri and Melissa (who will still bring you "just them" episodes every other week) talk

176. She Said, He Said, We Said
Hello Hatters! We are so happy to finally be back with you again! This has been our longest hiatus ever - thank you for continuing to listen while we prepared to bring you a season like no other. No, we are not going all Gossip Girl as the title would suggest. Instead, we are bringing you what we have to say on the topics, as well as that of our most populat guests - OUR HUSBANDS!! When we bring o

175. We Talked About All the Things ...
A lot of planning and thought go into publishing The Hats Podcast. We have a LOT of ideas. Some of the episodes from Season 7 have been brewing for years, others a few months. But, they are all topics co-hosts Kerri and Melissa have been passionate about bringing to the listeners. What a rich season it has been! Here's a recap you can listen to and see if your highlights are the same as ours! Conn

174. The Incarceration Hat
What most of us know about incarceration comes from television shows and movies. As we all know, things are not always as Hollywood would have them seem. Prison rights activist Yolanda Williams gives us an up close and personal look at life behind bars - how a preacher's kid could end up there and redemption that can be found in the act of wrongdoing. Yolanda's story is fascinating and inspiring.

173. The Politician Hat
It's a presidential election year. So, it is only right that we hear from a politician, right? The Hats Podcast is excited to welcome Pasadena School Board Member Patrice Marshall McKenzie to the show to discuss the transition from supporting elected officials to becoming one. Patrice shares with us how politics can be conciliatory and practical, and serve the best interests of all constituents. H

172. The Blended Family Hat
The Brady Bunch. The most iconic American blended family. With a few bumps in the road smoothed over by a loving mom and dad, they made combing two families into one all look so easy. But, navigating stepparenting, disciplinary styles, new spouses, new siblings and many other issues that arise in the course and scope of creating a new family where one previously existed can be extremely challengin

171. The Accountability Hat
If you are going to wear many hats in life, you will have to hold yourself accountable to yourself and others. Accountability to yourself allows you to set boundaries that prevent you from becoming overwhelmed. Accountability to others opens the door to trust and relationship building. Listen to this episode which answers the following questions about accountability: What does it mean to be accou

170. The Feminine Energy Hat
What is the little thing that makes you speak a little softer, kinder, or more gently? How does that little thing interact with the impulse to drive hard to get results and advocate forcefully? Some say that we are describing the competing energy forces inside of all of us - feminine versus masculine energy. This was not a topic co-hosts Melissa and Kerri knew much about. So, unbeknownst to them,

169. The Competitive Spirit Hat
Are you driven to always be number one? Do you jump through hoops to be the best of the best? If you answer either of these questios yes, you may have a strong competitive spirit. But, does being competitive mean always going against others? Does it also mean detracting from the success of others who inevitably beat you sometimes? Find out the answers to these questions and consider whether your c

168. The Women in Law Enforcement Hat
People of color have mixed experiences with law enforcement. Rarely do we get an insider's perspective behind the badge. And, even less frequently do we hear the voices of women officers. The Hats Podcast wanted to have this conversation, and former Secret Service Agent Holli Draines agreed to have it with us! Holli's story of life in law enforcement is inspiring, and a wonderful reminder of those

167. The Digital Detox Hat
If you are listening to this episode, then you may not be in the middle of a digital detox because you have to find us digitally! But, we hope that what you get out of this episode is that a digital detox, while necessary from time to time, can take many different forms. You can go cold turkey and sequester away in a cabin in the woods with no electricity, keep everything the same but reduce socia

166. The Healing Through Sisterhood Hat
Pioneering podcaster Dr. Joy Harden Bradford of the wildly successful podcast Therapy For Black Girls joins The Hats Podcast to talk about how women can heal through sister relationships. There is nothing quite like that moment when passing another woman and receiving the smile and nod that say "Sis, I see you!" And, those laughs and tears shared over brunch? Whole television series have been root

165. The Hope Hat
Hope is the fuel that keeps us charging forward during the most difficult circumstances. When we consider the state of world - or, even our own lived experiences - living in a state of hope can feel naive. This episode of The Hats Podcast helps you see why hope is not naive, but necessary. And, co-hosts Kerri and Melissa give tips to move through the inevitable bouts of hopelessness you will encou

164. The Medically Assisted Death Hat
Any time we discuss death, the subject is emotional. This time it's emotional and controversial. The law in California changed some years ago to make the state one of the 11 that allow doctors to give people a lethal dose of medicine to end their lives. There are rules and circumstances that must be followed and exist, respectively. Returning to the show for a third time, guest therapist Thomas Pi

163. The Gossip Hat
"Girl, did you know that ...." Anytime a conversation starts this way, there is a good chance you are gossiping. But, what exactly is gossip, what are its consequences, and are there moments when gossip is a good thing? These are the issues Kerri and Melissa explore in this episode, while sharing personal stories about how gossip has impacted their lives. Connect with us: Facebook Twitter In

162. The Foreplay Hat
Foreplay is not what you think it is. Well, it probably includes things that automatically come to mind. But, it can (and, arguably should) be so much more than something that leads to sex. If you've never thought of vacuuming as a form of foreplay, this episosde is a must-listen for you! Sex therapist and radio show show Dr. Jeshana Avent-Johnson schools us on many of the ways foreplay extends be

161. The Hip Hop Hat
Happy 50th Anniversary hip hop!! Tracing the roots, trunk and branches of hip hop music in one podcast episode is an impossible task. Festivals, documentaries, movies, articles and so much other media has been produced this year alone to celebrate this iconic, unapologetically Black art form. Co-hosts Kerri and Melissa could not think of a better way to usher in the next 50 years of hip hop than t

160. The Work/Life Balance Hat
In the past 159 episodes, co-hosts Kerri and Melissa may have led you to believe that they are living the dream of perfectly balanced lives. Not so much! In this episode, the co-hosts explore the idea of whether true "balance" is possible; and, if it is how do we get there; and, if it isn't, how do we reconcile with not showing up 100% in every area all the time. Their discussion is enriched by th

159. The Addiction Hat
Drugs. Gambling. Food. Pleasure. Thinness. We can become addicted to anything. In this episode, guest therapist Gali Barak gives us an inside view into her own struggle and recovery from addiction, insights on how to help loved ones seized by addiction and help understanding and responding to the humanity behind addiction. Co-host Kerri, a self-proclaimed sweet treats addict (she explains this in

158. The Apology Hat
Apologizing has become an art form everyone needs to master. It used to be that apologies were about preschoolers hitting each other on the yard, a spouse betraying a spouse, a boss being overly critical. Now, an apology can be the difference between international humiliation, death threats and losing you entire livelihood. Cancel culture is real. In this episode co-hosts Kerri and Melissa talk ab

157. The Suicide Hat
Having been personally touched by suicide death, co-hosts Kerri and Melissa have been wanting to talk about suicide for quite some time. The word suicide gives rise to so many emotions - fear, shame, guilt, remorse, frustration and more. Listen to two bold and beautiful Black women discuss their lifelong and ongoing struggles with mental illness and suicidal thoughts. Together, T-Kea Blackman and

156. The Stress Eating Hat
Finals are coming up. Tomorrow is your BIG INTERVIEW. Your kid is having a hard time with math. Yesterday your mother had a biopsy and you are waiting for results. The list of stressful situations in any Hatter's life is infinitely long and varied. It can be very tempting to eat your way through these difficult times. In fact, there is science behind why we do so. Listen to this episode with guest

155. The Empathy Hat
Did you know empathy is different from sympathy? Many people think they are synonymous, but they are not. They are both important building blocks in relationships and necessary to see and fully recognize the humanity in others. But, they manifest differently and yield different responses to others. Are you an empathetic person? If no, can you adopt a more empathetic mindset? Find out more about yo

154. The Joiner Hat
Raise your hand if you have been a member of a relationship (moms, friends, children), professional (lawyers, doctors, singers), activity (runners, chess players, anime) or any other type of organization. Co-host Kerri is the epitome of a joiner having been a member of at least 4 organizations since college, co-Melissa not so much! Wherever you lie on the joiner spectrum, this episode answers the

153. The Infertility Hat
We have been wanting to talk about infertility. It would have been great to include this episode in the Focus on the Family Series. But, we needed the right guest and we finally got her on the mic. Listen to newscaster Jeannette Reyes share her painful, beautiful and unique story of how taking command of her own health alerted her to very unexpected infertility issues and her path to having a love

152. The Hiatus Hat
Have you ever wondered what people on a show do when the show goes on a break? We have! So, we decided to share with you what we - co-hosts Melissa and Kerri - did during our rather extended hiatus between Seasons 6 and 7. Not only that, but we share some insights into why taking a hiatus maybe helpful (and, sometimes necessary), and how to overcome obstacles to taking a hiatus. Why you should t

151. What's Been on Your Mind?
Dear Hatters, YOU have been on our minds for these past weeks of our hiatus! We are so very happy to be back with you and launch Season 7. Surely, this will be a lucky season. Why? Because we are finally getting the chance to have so many of the conversations we've been waiting months and years to have! Listen to the our Season 7 opener to get a peek under the tent on Season 7, which starts next w

150. Was Season 6 Too Close for Comfort?
We said we were going to get up close and personal, and BOY DID WE!! We covered so many different heart gripping topics with wonderful guests and by sharing our own personal stories. We did not expect the season to be as rich and deep as it turned out to be, but we are proud of all of that was revealed. In this closing episode we share our favorite moments ... and, there were many! Connect with an
