Beskrivelse

Raise your hand if you've heard "getting your body back" one too many times. In this episode, Tempestt and Jhshell get real about what that phrase actually means to them now and spoiler: it has nothing to do with fitting into pre-baby jeans.  From Jhshell discovering she has diastasis recti (ab separation) and finding her groove with early-morningPilates, to Tempestt canceling her gym membership, getting a SoulCycle bike, and accidentally losing 5 pounds by going vegetarian for a month this is the honest, messy, 18-months-in version of the story.  Plus the conversation that hit different: how the way we talk about our bodies in front of our daughters is making both of them rethink everything including what they say to themselves in the mirror.

episode Pop Culture Hits Different When You're a Mom | Euphoria, Olivia Rodrigo & Scandal cover

Pop Culture Hits Different When You're a Mom | Euphoria, Olivia Rodrigo & Scandal

Your monthly pop culture fix is here and we had a LOT to say. We're starting with the Euphoria Season 3 finale (spoiler warning at the top we give you a heads up before we get into it). Rue's story ending the way it did hit different, especially knowing about Angus Cloud's real-life passing. Then we get into Olivia Rodrigo getting dragged for wearing a baby doll dress and her quote about how we normalize pedophilia by blaming girls for what they wear. Then Kerry Washington and Tony Goldwyn showed back up together on Actors on Actors and we absolutely could not hold it together. We also ended up in a real conversation about raising daughters on pop culture whether we're doing them a disservice, at what age kids should be watching Love Island (spoiler: not yet), and why we'll be pushing Disney Plus hard for a while. Two suburban moms, one authentic conversation. New episodes every week. If you liked this one, share it, leave a review, and let us know what pop culture moments you want us to break down next.

episode One Mom's Honest IVF Journey: Over 100 Shots, PCOS, and the Son Who Made It Worth It cover

One Mom's Honest IVF Journey: Over 100 Shots, PCOS, and the Son Who Made It Worth It

We're joined by our friend Monique — a women's health pelvic floor physical therapist — for one of the most real conversations we've had on this show.Monique walks us through her full IVF journey: being diagnosed with PCOS and fertility issues just months after going off birth control, skipping straight to IVF when doctors told her natural conception wasn't an option, navigating 100+ injections, the $20,000 sticker shock (and how insurance changed everything at the last minute), and what nobody on TV ever shows you about the process.She also opens up about the emotional side — why she took the news more calmly than most, what made her want to quit mid-injection, and how becoming a mom changed everything she thought she knew about herself.If you're on an IVF journey, thinking about it, or just want to understand what someone you love might be going through — this one's for you.Monique's practice: derizziopt.com (mobile in-home visits, DFW area — pelvic floor, postpartum, prenatal, fertility support, and more)Follow us: @twomomstooomuchcoffeeTwo Moms Too Much Coffee — real talk, no filter, always overcaffeinated.
