This week, in what might be the funniest episode yet, Molly and Emese are joined by co-stars Amy Schumer and Brianne Howey. They get candid about motherhood, career evolution, and their new film, Kinda Pregnant —which unexpectedly led to Amy’s latest health discovery. Amy opens up about how public criticism led her to uncover her Cushing syndrome diagnosis, what it’s like to navigate comedy and Hollywood as a mom, and the importance of sharing birth stories without shame. Brianne shares how becoming a mother has shifted her perspective on work, how Ginny & Georgia ’s Georgia Miller compares to real-life parenting, and the power of female friendships in the industry. We also go behind the scenes of their new Netflix film, Kinda Pregnant —how Molly first got the script, why Amy and Brianne were drawn to the project, and what it means for women today. Plus, they reflect on their early career struggles, the moment they knew they “made it,” and how motherhood has reshaped their ambitions. From career highs to personal challenges, this episode is raw, funny, and packed with insights.

Send us a text Have you ever made a mistake that left you feeling gut-punched and doubting yourself? This week on Secrets in Medical Device Sales, The Girls of Grit tackles a topic that’s tough to admit but essential for growth: making mistakes. They share their own experiences of mishaps in the field and the hard-earned lessons they’ve gained. In this episode, you’ll learn the secret to overcoming errors with integrity, humility, and resilience. From acknowledging your mistake to seeking feedback and rebuilding trust, they break down four practical steps to turn setbacks into comebacks. This episode will remind you that mistakes are inevitable—but how you respond defines your character and career. You’re not alone; with the right mindset and support, you can rise stronger than ever. Tune in for a dose of honesty, grit, and actionable advice to help you navigate the tough moments in sales—and life. Own it. Learn from it. Grow through it. Must-Hear Insights and Key Moments Owning Mistakes: Success starts with accountability. Mistakes happen to everyone, but how you handle them—honestly and with integrity—sets you apart. Own it, address it quickly, and maintain trust in professional relationships. Steps to Recovery: Overcome mistakes with four key steps: acknowledge the error, apologize if needed, learn from the experience, and seek feedback. The Case of the Missing Equipment: F orgetting critical equipment for a case was a hard lesson for Anneliese, but it reinforced the need for preparation.
