MELISSA: What is your particular morning routine and particular nighttime routine?
BRIDGETTE: My mornings look a little different now that I have a baby. I typically get up, brush my teeth and tongue scrape before having a big glass of water. My husband typically makes me eggs and oatmeal for breakfast while I pump and then I wash it all down with a matcha. If I have the time I then go and do a quick 5 step skincare routine and then I’m off for the day!
MELISSA: How do you take your coffee?
BRIDGETTE: I’m actually a matcha girl! I make an iced matcha with oat milk and maple syrup every morning!
MELISSA: Ok, yum. I need to try that…What are your go to brands that are particular to you? Tell us your go-to denim, white t-shirt, bra or underwear, shoes, PJ’s or brand you splurge or invest in?
BRIDGETTE: Right now I’m loving re/done denim / white tee would be “Wilfred” brand from Aritzia, nursing bra from Spanx and Cuup underwear are the softest ever! I’ve been loving my Ugg slip ons or the pillow slides from Amazon, pajamas for me lately have been sweat pants from Brandy Melville and a crop top for easier nursing, I’ll splurge on Reformation (love that they are sustainable) and I’ll pretty much impulse buy anything from Free People.
MELISSA: Particular favorite song to blast in the car?
BRIDGETTE: One of my husband’s unreleased new songs.

MELISSA:Particularly challenging time in your life that you were able to grow/learn from?
BRIDGETTE:I’d say my college years were hard, I felt a lot of pressure to be liked and loved by others so deeply that I left behind a lot of my morals and changed myself to fit a mold I didn’t need to fit. I’ve learned that I’m an acquired taste (like a good glass of wine) so not everyone is going to get me or like me but that’s ok.
MELISSA:Particular moment you are most proud of?
BRIDGETTE:Not to be cliche but the moment I became a mom.
