Welcome to Weird and Hormonal!

  Former military and government employee turned romance writer—because handling classified intel was way less stressful than crafting the perfect steamy scene. I swapped combat boots for plot twists, government reports for happily-ever-afters, and I’m still tactical... just with more kissing. Currently surviving perimenopause and medical gaslighting in Northern Utah with an 18-year-old about to launch into college, and yes, I’m preparing for that mission with caffeine and silent panic. I also live with two ridiculously spoiled dogs who think they run the house. Plot twist: they do.

Weird fact: I can carry on an entire conversation, answer emails, and make dinner—all while secretly doing Kegels like it's an Olympic sport. Gotta keep everything strong and in place... because gravity is real, and so is prevention. Multitasking level: expert.

I've been best friends with this incredible woman for over 40 years — my go-to girl, secret keeper, and partner-in-crime. She knows all my embarrassing stories, my weird habits, and still sticks around like it’s her favorite hobby. Honestly, I can’t do life without her... mostly because who else would remind me of all the stuff I want to forget

 Hi, I’m Becky Isbell—mom, Mimi, small business owner, dog lover, devoted wife, and podcast co-host. I’m originally from Oklahoma but moved to Texas for love (and let’s be honest, better Mexican food). I run on Dr. Pepper Zero, a good sense of humor, and just enough sleep to be functional.

Weird fact? I once worked for a traveling circus. A real one—with elephants, popcorn, and life choices that seemed perfectly reasonable at the time. I’ll tell you all about it... if you bring snacks.

These days, when I’m not running a business or sneaking another dog into the house, you’ll find me quilting in my “Sew Suite” or planning something slightly unhinged but totally heart-driven.

  I’ve been best friends with Tawnya for over 40 years—she’s the calm, I’m the chaos, and together, this podcast is where we let it all out—the laughter, the hot takes, and the hormones.  Weird and Hormonal is our place to let loose, share the wild ride, and remind you that being weird and a little hormonal just means you’ve got stories worth telling.
