  • Ever feel like you're stuck in the “I-can’t-ask-for-more” rut? Like if you even think about wanting abundance, someone’s going to pop out and say, “Not for you, Mom!”? Well, spoiler alert: That’s total nonsense. In this episode, we’re shaking up your mindset, your beliefs, and maybe even your to-do list (because abundance doesn’t wait for a clear calendar).
    Get ready to ditch the people-pleasing, toss out those limiting beliefs, and finally understand why success doesn’t need to look like a Pinterest-perfect life. Cathy Heller, host of the Abundant Ever After podcast, and the author of the new book, Abundant Ever After: Tools for Creating a Life of Prosperity and Ease joins us as we talk about how personal growth & abundance can come from unexpected places, how success can be redefined beyond traditional metrics, and why on earth do so many women feel they don't have the right to ask for more?!
    If you’ve ever thought, “Do I want more than I should?” the answer is a loud, unapologetic NO! Trust us, you’ll want to find 30 minutes to tune in because abundance is waiting, and it looks fabulous on you.

  • Why do so many of us moms think we deserve a gold star if we manage to do everything on our own, without a single helping hand? Seriously, when did “exhausted and lonely” become the standard for success in motherhood? Spoiler: it’s not. Because let’s be real—we all need a community to stay sane, avoid burnout, and actually enjoy this wild ride called parenting.
    In this episode, we’re talking with Florence Ann Romano, personal growth strategist and author of Build Your Village: A Guide to Finding Joy and Community in Every Stage of Life about why it’s time to ditch the guilt of asking for help and embrace the magic of real, meaningful connections. From the six types of people you absolutely need in your circle to why finding your tribe is more important than ever, we’re covering it all. Turns out, the secret to surviving motherhood isn’t doing it alone—it’s knowing who to call when the toddler tantrums hit hard.
    So, let’s stop pretending we can do it all solo and start building the kind of community that lifts us up. After all, a happy mom is one who knows when to ask for help, lean on her people, and laugh through the chaos. 🌟👯‍♀️✨

  • Tired of trying to be the holiday superhero while clinging to your last shred of sanity? If you’re the one orchestrating the holiday magic (and probably losing a little hair over it), this one's for you. We’re diving into that festive frenzy where moms end up juggling gift lists, holiday cards, and 27 different kinds of cookies while wondering if there’s enough wine in the world to survive it.
    Today, we’re serving up some much-needed real talk about setting boundaries and ditching those holiday perfection traps. Forget the Instagram-worthy gingerbread house and focus on what actually brings joy. Spoiler: It’s not the perfectly frosted sugar cookies but maybe letting someone else handle dinner (yes, store-bought counts).
    And hey, if the thought of one more Christmas card makes you twitch, skip it. This season, we’re all about delegating, saying no, and choosing self-care over burnout. Because let's be honest—your happiness is worth way more than a picture-perfect holiday mantel.

  • Ever found yourself color-coding your family’s Google calendar while stress-eating a half-eaten granola bar you found in the bottom of your purse for lunch? (No judgment, we’ve all been there.) In this episode, we’re tackling that sneaky little habit we call “toxic productivity.” You know, the one that whispers, "You’re not doing enough," even when you’re crushing it like a multitasking superhero.

    Our guest Israa Nasir is a New York City-based psychotherapist, founder of WellGuide—a digital community for mental health awareness, and author of the new book: TOXIC PRODUCTIVITY: Reclaim Your Time and Emotional Energy in a World That Always Demands More. 

    We’re going to break down why being busy doesn’t always mean being productive and how trying to do it all might actually be burning us out faster than our kids can say, "What’s for dinner?" Spoiler alert: multitasking is a lie, perfectionism is overrated, and squeezing in some actual fun might just be the secret sauce to a happier life.

  • Ever walk into a room and completely forget why you’re there? Or start a task, only to get distracted by five other things along the way? Yeah, we feel you. Turns out that what we often chalk up to “Mom Brain” might actually be ADHD. And no, you’re not just scatterbrained! 
    In this episode, we're diving into how ADHD sneaks up on moms, how it presents differently in women (hello, multitasking gone wild), and why routines—though they seem impossible—can be total lifesavers.
    So, whether you’ve got Mom Brain, ADHD, or the ultimate combo of both, grab your headphones and get ready to embrace the mess with a little grace—and a lot of humor.

  • Ever wonder how a famous actress from Mad Men and comedian/writer/actor who wrote for and performed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon handle parenthood? Spoiler: It’s hilarious! 
    In this episode, we sit down with Arthur Meyer and Stephanie Drake who make up the dynamic duo at ABC Parenting (TikTok, YouTube & Instagram) to explore how they’ve turned the chaos of raising kids into comedic gold. Arthur is a comedian, writer, and actor who wrote for and performed on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" for 8 years, and Stephanie is an actress best known as Meredith, Don Draper's ditzy but well-meaning secretary, from the hit TV show "Mad Men". 
    From serious roles to seriously funny parenting bits, they dive into how humor keeps them sane through diaper disasters, tantrum tornadoes, and bedtime battles. Plus, why breaks from parenting are crucial (because who doesn’t need a snack and a scream sometimes?) and how laughter can ease kids' fears and melt down stress.
    Join us for unlimited laughs, sanity, and some solid “you’re not alone” moments!
