Episode 11: The Evolution of Mother’s Day

Episode 11: The Evolution of Mother’s Day

This week, we’re talking about Mother’s Day expectations vs. reality. In the early years of motherhood, I had high hopes and got… syrup in my hair. But this year? I cleaned a toilet—and still had the best Mother’s Day yet. Tune in as I reflect on how my perspective has changed over the years, how the phase of motherhood makes a difference, and why it’s totally okay if the day doesn’t feel magical. Whether you spent the day in gratitude, in chaos, or somewhere in between—this one’s for you.

Episode 10: It Takes a Village: Moms Supporting Moms

You’ve heard the saying: it takes a village to raise a child. But what happens when the village feels missing—or never showed up at all? In this episode, I’m exploring the history of the ‘village,’ and how motherhood has changed across generations. I’m also sharing how we can start rebuilding support, one small step at a time—and how I’m participating in Walk a Mile in May to raise awareness for maternal mental health. Whether your village looks like a group chat, a daycare drop-off crew, or a best friend who always texts back, this episode is a love letter to the power of moms supporting moms. You’re not walking alone.

Episode 9: Clawing My Way Back From a Cold

This week’s episode is brought to you by: congestion, exhaustion, and the desperate need for a nap. I’m clawing my way back from a head cold that didn’t knock me out entirely—but definitely made everything feel harder. And as a mom? Sick days don’t come with PTO. I talk about the emotional whiplash of trying to rest while the to-do list multiplies, the chaos that waits for you when you're “better,” and the unique hell of trying to get back in shape when your hormones and head colds are both working against you. Also—can we talk about the man-cold? Because the minute I say I’m sick, my husband’s symptoms magically appear…and they’re always worse. 🙄 If you’ve ever tried to sneak a face mask in between sneezes and snack duty, this one’s for you.

Episode 8: While My Husband Runs, I Rage

This week, we lace up and hit the emotional pavement—because I’m talking all about Mario, my runner husband. Yep, the man who started running after I did, got weirdly competitive, and now clocks in more hours than a part-time job… on his feet. I share the hilarious story of how it all began, the chaos he jogs away from (witching hour, dinner meltdowns, needy pets), and how, even though I lovingly roast his stretching routine, I’m also super proud of him. We also get into the mental load divide—because a mom’s brain and a runner’s brain? Not the same sport. Different leagues entirely. Join me for laughs, lightbulb moments, and maybe a tiny bit of appreciation for foam rollers. 🧘‍♂️👟

Episode 7: Hey Girl... MLM trama

Making friends as an adult is already awkward enough — but add in the residual trauma of growing up in the golden age of MLM culture? Yikes. In this episode, I’m talking about the weird pressure millennial moms feel when it comes to making friends, starting a business, or selling anything without accidentally triggering someone’s MLM PTSD. We’ll laugh (probably at my terrible Lipsense phase), we’ll cringe (shoutout to that Arbonne lady who called me for 5 years), and we’ll talk about how to show up for your friends doing cool things… without the weird “hey girl” vibes. If you’ve ever gotten trapped at a coffee date sales pitch or still flinch when you get a DM from someone you went to high school with… this one’s for you.
