Chasing The Spark

Katie Gouldner & Heather Henry

Welcome to Chasing the Spark! We're Katie and Heather—two women, two sisters and one mission: finding the sparks in life's everyday chaos, all while connecting with others along the way.

We're moms, we're multitaskers, and we're juggling homes, careers, kids, and everything in between. But this podcast? It's our chance to carve out something just for us, to connect with you and each other. Each week, we chat about the mess and the magic of life: from the rollercoaster of motherhood to the books that light us up, the cleaning products that actually work (hallelujah!), career challenges, and the little hacks that help keep our homes and lives from falling apart.

We're not out there chasing inspiration every day, but we find those sparks in the everyday moments and joyful discoveries that make life interesting. It's about connecting with each other, sharing stories, and celebrating those small sparks that remind us we're not alone on this crazy journey.

So grab a drink, get comfy, and join us for real talk, plenty of laughs, and the reminder that no matter how busy life gets, there's always a spark waiting to be found—and a connection to be made.
