Episode 14: @worldofdelulu Slapshots, Switch-Ups & Side Hustles

    Posted April 28, 2025

This week, we’re stepping into the World of Delulu—where the grind never stops, the sports never sleep, and the mom hustle is real. Meet the badass behind the Etsy shop @worldofdelulu, a hockey + baseball mama managing two kids at major crossroads: one aging out of junior hockey in college, the other making a last-minute pivot from competitive baseball to a brand-new sport right before graduation (cue the chaos). We talk about the emotional rollercoaster of aging out, supporting your kids through athletic identity shifts, and turning hockey slang into a thriving apparel business. It’s real, it’s raw, and it’s a whole lot of delulu magic.

From the rink to the Etsy grind—this mum’s got hustle, heart, and a whole lotta delulu.

One’s aging out of hockey, the other’s switching sports at the buzzer—meanwhile, she’s  just trying to pack orders and not cry in the car.

Episode 12: Tournament Mums; Wine, Whistles & WiFi

Welcome to the chaos, baby!

In this episode, I’m diving headfirst into the wild world of tournament weekends—where the hotel hallways are lawless, the gear bags are massive, and the coffee's never strong enough. Whether you’re the overpacked mom, the wine smuggler, or just trying to stream the game with one bar of service, this one’s for YOU.

I’m talking hotel disasters, rinkside madness, broken wifi, snack stand drama, and all the unspoken truths about being a full-on tournament warrior. No guests, no filters—just me, my stories, and a big ol’ love letter to the hockey moms who hold it all together (barely).

So grab your travel mug, turn up the volume, and let’s talk wine, whistles, and wifi.
