14% of students in public school have an IEP (Individual Education Plan). But as a parent, getting the evaluation and services you want from the school district is often challenging. Join me as I chat with author Aaron Wright as we discuss our respective journeys with the school district and what we have learned so far. If you are just starting out on this path, unhappy with your current services, or have a suspicion your kid might be behind and needing extra help, this one is for you!

Making the decision to grow your family is a hugely personal decision, unique to every couple. Sometimes the decision is obvious, sometimes it's a "woops" and sometimes, it's deliberate. Join me as I chat with Rachel Olson about making the decision to have another baby after her second was premature. We talk about coping with Mom Guilt, how having a third changes the family dynamic, and what it's like going back to ground zero after you've crossed the diaper hurdle.

Everybody knows that stress is a libido killer. And by this point we are well aware that living through a global pandemic is pretty stressful too. Join me as I chat with social media superstar Tova Leigh about how she realized her libido has taken a major dip because of the pandemic, why she's ok with it (for now), and what she plans to do about it moving forward. We talk about why it's important to normalize the natural ebbs and flows of sex drive and a woman's body parts. We might also confess to our kids walking in on us during lockdown #1. Oops!

Did you know that one out of sixty kids these days are being diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum? That means if you know 60 kids, statistically speaking one of them is Autistic. Today we go behind the scenes with Wendy Garafalo about what it's like to be in charge of raising one of these extraordinary, but very different, kids. We talk about how to be a good friend to a mom who is on this journey, and why neurodiversity is cool and should actually be celebrated. If you have neurotypical kids, but know someone or know of someone who is on the spectrum, this one is for you.
Wendy Garafalo is a wonderful mom and advocate for Autism awareness. Her company makes adorable hats, shirts and jewelry and proceeds benefit charities that help these amazing kids. Check out Iam-love.org

I chat with Scary Mommy Staff Writer & Social Media Powerhouse, @21stCenturySAHM about why motherhood is harder than she expected, and how being a mom is different than it was when we were growing up.

This is a great episode for moms struggling with identity or feelings of unfulfillment or guilt for wanting something more, even when they know they are so blessed and love their kids dearly. We also talk about the joys of homeschooling kids during Covid and not wearing a real bra since March. Join us!

I chat with Allison Cullen about how having a baby totally altered her brain structure, resulting in a massive career shift!

If you're new to Human Design, it's a tool that combines personality tests, the Chakra System and Astrology to help people live with more energy and in the flow of life. Allison talks about how she uses Human Design to be a better mom, wife and even to manifest a savings account! A really fun and interesting conversation, join us!

Did you know that 95% of your beliefs about yourself and the world are governed by your subconscious? Did you know that your subconscious is fully formed by the time you're about 7? What if instead of having to heal your inner child as a grown up, your inner child was actually OK because your parents made a conscious effort to build a healthy subconscious in you from the start? Join us as we chat with April Behunin, a RTT Therapist and Hypnotist about how to build a healthy subconscious in your children. Hear her custom affirmations for her children and why just reading "The Secret," isn't really enough.
April Behunin has graciously offered $50 off to our listeners for your first RTT session. Use promo code "NOSEX" at checkout

Join me as I chat with certified sommelier Sarah the Wine CEO, and hear her recommendations for the perfect wines for Happy Hours at Home. We cover cabs, pinots, whites and rose, because, let’s face it, we’ll all be hunkering down for a while. I also ask her all the things you’ve always wanted to ask a sommelier but never had the chance, like: How long can you keep an open bottle of wine? Are those wine preservers really worth it? Which is better, a wine club from a winery or a curated mix? And, does red really give you a worse hangover?
Sarah is a Certified Sommelier and wine enthusiast who has a passion for teaching others about wine. Through her podcast and blog, she hopes to make wine less intimidating and more approachable to everyone!
She has graciously offered 10% off to our listeners for personal wine tasting events. Please DM her on IG and mention “No Sex in the Suburbs” for the discounted rate.
