#423 - Rachael Harris on Balancing Motherhood and Hollywood

Author: Berty Boy Productions March 19, 2026 Duration: 1:51:55
Rachael Harris joins me for a really honest conversation about life, motherhood, and what happens when everything slows down. We talk about her career in Hollywood, the quiet seasons that no one really prepares you for, and how she found her way back to what she truly loves doing. We also get into parenting, relationships, and the work it takes to break patterns and show up differently for your kids. Rachael shares what she’s learned from her marriages, raising two boys, and learning to finally ask herself, “what do I actually want?” --------------------------------------------------- Sponsors Shopify - Sign up for your $1 per month trial and start selling today at https://shopify.com/wife --------------------------------------------------- Our Next book club will be Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic by Bunnie Xo Amazon - https://amzn.to/3P1swn9 Bookshop https://bookshop.org/a/97615/9780063445192 --------------------------------------------------- Call (818) 949-8536 to leave a voicemail with a question for LeeAnn (and sometimes Bert) that might be answered in a future episode! --------------------------------------------------- Fully Loaded at Sea 2026 Presale bertkreischercruise.com/presale Stream LUCKY on Netflix https://www.netflix.com/title/81713944 PERMISSION TO PARTY WORLD TOUR is on sale now: http://www.bertbertbert.com/tour --------------------------------------------------- LeeAnn Kreischer talks to friends about marriage, family, and being married to the life of the party, comedian Bert Kreischer! --------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW LEEANN: Facebook▶ https://www.facebook.com/wifeotp  Instagram▶ https://www.instagram.com/leeannkreischer  iTunes▶ podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wife-of-the-party/id1343348729  Official Website & MERCH▶ https://www.wifeotp.com Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review the podcast!

Hosted by LeeAnn Kreischer, Wife of the Party offers a backstage pass to the chaos and comedy of a life lived in the spotlight's shadow. This isn't just a podcast about being married to a famous comedian; it's a raw, funny, and surprisingly educational look at the realities of partnership, parenting, and maintaining your own identity. Through candid conversations with a rotating roster of friends, LeeAnn delves into the unvarnished truths of marriage, the beautiful mess of family life, and the unique experience of sharing your home with a human tornado of energy like Bert Kreischer. Each episode feels like a late-night chat with your most honest friend, one who isn't afraid to laugh at the absurdities while sharing hard-won wisdom. You'll hear stories that range from hilariously relatable to uniquely surreal, all grounded in LeeAnn's genuine perspective. From Berty Boy Productions, this podcast blends comedy with heartfelt moments and practical takeaways, making it a listen for anyone navigating their own relationships or simply curious about the person who keeps the party going long after the microphone is off. It’s about finding the humor in the everyday, the lessons in the chaos, and your own voice within the noise.
