2025/12/19

I mentioned that I’d never cut my own Christmas tree…and my mom immediately corrected me.She sent a voice note telling a childhood story I don’t remember at all —but my sister confirms it’s true.It’s a small moment, but it turned into something bigger about memory, family, and how the holidays carry stories we don’t always remember living.Short.Cozy.Unexpected.

Episode 18 - The Tribe I Left Behind!

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/12/09

Leaving my people in California felt like tearing away a whole piece of my identity… but somehow, here in Texas, me and my kids are actually thriving. And the craziest part? It’s because of the tribe I left behind. The way they raised me, loved me, and toughened me up without even knowing it.In this episode, I open up about missing them, appreciating them, and realizing they quietly prepared me for a life where I could stand on my own — even when things got terrifying, like surviving a literal

*MINI EPISODE - Interview with Auntie

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/12/05

Auntie gave me 5 min to interview her during her Thanksgiving visit, and we got into all the good stuff — kitchen magic, family traditions, and our little movie-theatre adventure where she was livin’ her best life in that reclining seat with her great nieces. Her accent is thick, but her love is thicker! She even wrapped the episode with the most iconic “BYE BEBÉ.”Short, sweet, and perfect for your morning listen…

Thanksgiving Rewind

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/12/02

This week on Shhh My Kids Are Asleep, we’re running it back to Thanksgiving — fun, comedy, and a whole lot of love. My aunt came to visit, and listen… she did NOT play in the kitchen. Her seasoning? Legendary. Like, “remember this for future generations” level.We spent most of the holiday cooking shoulder-to-shoulder — Eastern Indian butter chicken, gumbo, crawfish étouffée, and of course the Thanksgiving spread. The kids jumped in to help (because honestly, children are way less complicated than

Episode 17- A creole Thanksgiving!

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/11/24

It’s Thanksgiving in the Nix house… and this year? It looks a little different.A surprise family guest shows up, the great silent-volume debate makes an appearance (how loud is “quiet,” exactly?), and I’m trying to figure out how to grow into a new space while making traditions of my own.The kids might cook with me… which is either adorable or mildly terrifying. I also face the sad, humbling truth that I am now the undefeated baked-mac champion by default because I moved states and left all my

**Bonus Episode-Sleepover Vibes at 12:10AM

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/11/21

If you grew up having late-night cousin talks, this episode is exactly that energy.Birds in parking lots, theme-park churros, chickens built like The Rock, pigs, plants, French words, and the moment someone says “I gotta pee.”Just pure late-night girly giggling nonsense. 🌙💖

**Bonus Content Micah's Bird Fear

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/11/20

Okay… this might be the most unofficial, unplanned, un-studio-approved bonus clip I’ve ever dropped — but it’s too funny not to share.My cousin Micah was here visiting, and we ended up having a late-night birthday chat about irrational fears. She told me hers is BIRDS (I’ll allow it), and then I accidentally made it worse by telling her what a group of crows is called.She looked it up.She shrieked.The end. 😂The audio is giving “two cousins on the couch at midnight whisper-talking while the house

Episode 16 Irrational Fears

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/11/18

This episode is basically a throwback to all the random fears that shaped us — and the new ones motherhood unlocked like some kinda DLC pack.I talk about how, as a kid, I just straight-up copied my older sister’s fear of roller coasters because… hello, older siblings were the blueprint. And then there was my penguin era — yes, penguins. Danny DeVito as the Penguin in Batman? Core memory. Traumatizing. I spent YEARS thinking penguins were basically tiny villains with plans. Working at SeaWorld

Episode 15 - Birthday Week!

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/11/11

It’s my birthday week, and I’m feeling young enough to have fun, but old enough to know better. 🎂In this episode, I talk about what it’s like growing older in a brand-new place, finding comfort in the quiet, and realizing that confidence sometimes just means knowing your limits.From being the mom who plans everyone’s birthday but her own, to whispering about a surprise visit from my cousin (yes, for my birthday!), this one’s equal parts cozy, honest, and funny in that “I get it” kinda way.Press

Bonus Episode: The 5:45 A.M. Dish Rant

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/11/07

It’s early. Too early. The dishes are still dirty, my husband’s boots are sitting in the middle of the living room, and apparently, I’m the only one who sees it 😩. So yeah — I did what any tired mom would do… took photos, sent them to the family group chat, and started scrubbing before sunrise.This 5-minute whisper rant is brought to you by frustration, love, and a whole lot of coffee. Stick around to hear if I get caught mid-recording 👀#ShhhMyKidsAreAsleep #BonusEpisode #MomLifeUnfiltered

Episode 14 - Texas Schools

Shhhmykidsareasleep ·

2025/11/04

From Poppies to Bluebells!Everything’s bigger in Texas — and the schools are no different 😅 After moving from California, I quickly realized that my kids’ new campuses came with clear backpacks, lanyards, and about three times as many students.In this episode, I’m chatting about the little (and not-so-little) differences between California and Texas schools — from morning drop-off routines to the way parents and teachers connect. It’s not better or worse, just different — and we’re figuring it out
