2020/02/05

In the spirit of expanding upon last week’s episode about how to create a successful moms group, I wanted to bring someone onto the show who could dive into those friendships a bit more. Making friends as an adult is very different than how we made friends when we were younger. Our needs are different, the setting in which we make friends are different. So many elements of adult life—marriage, kids, moving, job changes—all of these complicate our efforts to make friends and can leave some of us

023. 5 Tips for Starting a Successful Moms Group

Motherhood can feel pretty isolating, especially in the first few weeks and months after your baby is born. Or when there are other big changes in your life like moving to a new town with your kids in tow. There will always be different seasons within your motherhood journey--even motherhood itself is a season—and those journeys, every one of those seasons are easier, lighter, and feel more do-able with support. And there is nothing like the support of a solid, loving moms group. There are lots of

2020/01/22

Parenting in the age of social media feels tricky, doesn’t it? I’ve found that a lot of parents feel insecure when it comes to rules about social media and how to approach it. We need to talk about it more and find ways to feel confident in our parenting in general, but especially when it comes to phones and social media. That’s why I’ve invited Dr. Sarah Sarkis on to the show today to start that conversation and help us navigate these tricky waters. Dr. Sarah Sarkis is a psychologist, writer, and

Trigger Warning. Sonya Niess has returned to the show today. She was my first guest in Episode 2 when we talked about expectations and motherhood. If you haven’t tuned in to that episode, I highly recommend going back and listening to it. It really is the first part of a very powerful story. And one that contains transformative perspective for any mom. At this point, the title has probably clued you in to what happened next on Sonya and Naia’s journey. Please know that this is a trigger warning

Me time when you're married with kids? Yup. It's possible. But how? How can there be any time for anything when everyone else's needs feel so important and our schedules are so busy? It's enough to leave any parent asking "what about me?" This happened to my husband Chris & I. We felt like our needs weren't getting met, our schedule was a mess, and we'd get resentful if the other person got to go do something by themselves and we didn't. And then things changed. Not magically overnight, but

You know the jokes… how moms can’t go to the trampoline park or even sneeze without peeing a little? We’ve just come to accept it as annoying and kind of funny at the same time. What if I told you there is something that can be done about it? That bladder issues after baby are common but not normal? It’s true! And today’s guest, Angie Peters, is here to share valuable insights about pelvic floor health and physical therapy with us. It turns out there are a LOT of options that don’t just involve

Today’s episode is coming to you on a Friday instead of a Wednesday this week because a lot of us will be celebrating Christmas on the 25th and we’ll be more than a little distracted on that particular Wednesday…plus Hanukkah & Solstice begin on the 22nd and Kwanzaa & Boxing Day on the 26th and and and…the list of celebrations is huge in the month of December.

Let me start off by saying this interview did NOT go in the direction I thought it would. Lisa blew my mind with her insights and loving suggestions. She is a true healer and helper and I could not be more excited to share her with you! Back in 2014, Lisa had a blog post go viral: Raising Girls Who Are Includers Instead of Mean Girls (https://www.lisamccrohan.com/2014/09/raising-girls-who-are-includers-instead-of-mean-girls/) You’ve probably read it…it is still making the rounds on social media over

The topic of CBD is surprisingly one of the most requested from my listeners! Maybe you’ve heard moms talking about CBD in passing or have seen it mentioned online. Maybe you’re not 100% sure what CBD is, maybe you already know, maybe you use it, maybe you’ve thought about using it, or maybe you’re one of many who aren’t even sure if it’s legal or not? It doesn’t matter which of those describes you…this highly anticipated episode is for you! There are a lot of takeaways from today’s show as we pull

12 Idea for Living in Gratitude Aloha Mamas! At this point in the podcast, you’ve heard me mention a few times that I feel moms & families are suffering from disconnect (on a lot of levels) but especially when it comes to gratitude. We have intellectual gratitude--(I mean, of course we’re grateful for our family!)—we think it, but what about actual gratitude? And by “actual” I mean action based. What actions have we taken lately to express our gratitude to loved ones? It’s this disconnect

Slowing down and being more present in our everyday lives—with ourselves, with our children, with the seasons—I know many mamas would like to do just that, but how? How can we take care of ourselves and be present as moms when we are so busy and fed constant contrary messages about #allthethings we

Have you ever tried acupuncture? Do you use it and love it like I do? Are you too scared of what it might feel like & never tried it? What is acupuncture supposed to do anyway? Can it help you pre-pregnancy, during pregnancy, or even postpartum? Today we're diving into these questions and so much more with our amazing guest, Dr. Eva Ross.

Something’s wrong, something’s off. It can feel like that sometimes as a mother. Moms are busy, stressed, tired, don’t know how to slow down, doubt themselves… why? What’s causing all of these negative emotions? All of this disconnect? Too much on our plates? Expectations? Demands? Well, honestly, there are probably more factors than I can list. But the more important question: What are we going to do about it? One of the puzzle pieces in this stressed-out bigger picture is that we’ve stopped
