We expect ourselves to just know how to do this motherhood thing—as if instinct alone should carry us through every tantrum, milestone, and hard conversation.

But here’s the truth no one says out loud enough: every time your child enters a new phase, you do too.

In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to be “new” again and again throughout motherhood—and how to let go of the pressure to get it right the first time.

You’re not failing. You’re not behind. You’re just learning alongside them. And that’s not weakness—that’s love in action.

So if you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “I should know how to handle this by now…” —this episode is for you.

Press play, take a deep breath, and remember: we’re all new here.

We weren’t planning to talk about mom rage that day… but once we opened the door, there was no closing it. This episode felt like a deep exhale.

We’re talking about those moments when everything builds up and you go from “I’m fine” to “I’m going to lose it” in two seconds. And how most of us don’t even realize how much we’re holding in.

If you’ve ever scared yourself (or your kids) with how mad you got or felt the guilt that comes after you are so not alone!

This episode is honest. It’s raw. And it might be exactly what you need to hear today.

In this episode,we sit down for a real, relatable chat about how hard change can be—for us as adults, and for our kids.

We open up about the emotional rollercoaster of transitions, the unexpected ways our own traits show up in our children, and the deep challenge of watching our kids struggle with things like anxiety, fear, or new experiences.

It’s honest, a little messy, and full of moments that will make you nod along and feel a little less alone.

If you’ve ever thought, “Why is this so hard?” or wondered how to support your child through big feelings while navigating your own, this episode is for you.

Let's be honest....our kids are the loves of our lives and the reason our jaws clench sometimes.

In this one, we're saying all the things you think but don't always say outloud- like why the sound of snack bags opening makes us irrationally angry, or how asking "can I have a snack?" after not eating dinner should be a punishable offense. It's OK- our kids annoy the heck out of us sometimes. Doesn't mean we love them any less! Just means we're moms.. with ears, nerves, and a very short fuse by bedtime.

Hit a play for a funny, real talk episode that'll have you laughing and nodding the whole way through.

Marriage doesn’t just “change” after kids—it evolves, unravels, and reinvents itself over and over again.

In this episode, we’re walking through the real stages of marriage through motherhood—from the pre-baby honeymoon phase, to the roommate vibes of the baby years, to school-age co-managing, and the slow, quiet choice to either reconnect or grow apart.

We’re talking resentment, emotional capacity, calendar chaos, and the little moments where you suddenly realize:“Wait… when’s the last time we even talked about us?”

Whether you’re in the thick of toddler tantrums, realizing your partner feels like a coworker, or you’ve found your way back to each other—this one’s for you.

What happens when you’re an OG influencer used to showing up online—but postpartum anxiety hits you like a truck, and no one sees it?

In this episode, I sit down with Julia Dzafic a longtime lifestyle blogger and local influencer, to talk about what reallywent on behind the scenes after becoming a mom.
We cover:

• How she kept posting while silently battling undiagnosed postpartum anxiety
• What finally led her to seek help and start medication
• The guilt, the healing, and what feeling like herself again really looks like
• Why comparison online is crushing moms and how to stay in your own damn lane
• What she wishes more people would say out loud

If you’ve ever felt like you were falling apart while everyone else looked fine—this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen in and remember: you’re not doing it wrong. It’s just hard. And help is a strength, not a weakness.

This week, we’re getting sentimental — in the best way. ✨
You know those moments when you're rocking your toddler, watching your kids play, or folding another pile of laundry, and you suddenly feel a pang of this won’t last forever? That’s what we’re talking about.

In this episode, we explore what it means to feel nostalgic for the moment you're still living. We share memories from our own childhoods, how they shape the way we mother today, and reflect on what it must feel like for moms who are a little further down the road — whose kids are growing up or already grown. How do they hold these memories? What do they wish they had known then?

It’s tender, reflective, and full of heart. Relatable to any mom. Whether you're deep in the little years or starting to look back on them — this one’s for you. 💛
