There's so many things, but we've brought her here today because you're going to help us out with the whole birth control situation. Yes,

    Dr. Kelly Culwell: Yes. Happy to do it.

    Jen: Um, so a lot of people of different ages watch MomCave. Like, when I started doing MomCave a long time ago, my kid was a newborn. So, we were talking about postpartum and when can you have sex again? And what can you do? What kind of birth control can you use? Well, it's been a few years. And now a lot of the people that follow here are going into perimenopause. I just got really sad when I said that. I like went off in another land. And so, we've got the new moms that find us still but we've also got a lot of us not so new moms who are going to this other stage of life. So, first of all, what is perimenopause?

    Jen: Hello, okay, we're live. Welcome, everyone, to MomCave LIVE, where we may have lost our minds, but we haven't lost our sense of humor. I'm Jen, and I have author Cynthia Hammer here with me tonight. We have so much to talk about. Hey, Cynthia.

    Cynthia Hammer: Hi, Jen. It's nice to be with you again.

    Jen: Thank you. Yeah, I was a guest on Cynthia's podcast just a little while ago, and I'll tell you all about that. But we'd like this to be interactive so we can read the comments. If you have any questions or comments, just pop them in there, and we'll be watching it and talking with everybody. So Cynthia wrote a book. First of all, congratulations on actually writing an entire book because not everyone can do that.

    Cynthia Hammer: Well, especially if you have ADHD, it's a little hard to do. Yeah. I only did it because I was forced into isolation because of COVID.

    Jen: Oh, we can all blame COVID for good and bad on many things. It made us do some things we wouldn't have otherwise done.

    Cynthia Hammer: I think at least for women, I talked to a lot of women who figured out their ADHD because of COVID. So it was good in that way. They were home watching TikTok and Instagram, and they started recognizing themselves.

    Jen: Right? Well, that is definitely what happened to me and some of my family. So I would love to talk about that. Before we do, I'll flash up the book, and the link to the book will be in the comments, but this is Cynthia's book. And when, oops, see, I'm having all my crazy things happen in here with my screen. We don't need to see you. Okay. So when, umm, there we go. Now we want you to be next to me. The technical difficulties, there we go. Okay, that's much better.

    Jen
    Well, welcome to MomCave LIVE where we may have lost our minds, but we haven't lost our sense of humor. I'm Jen from MomCave. And our guest tonight, I'm super excited to talk to you because I follow her. I watch all her videos, they're super helpful, yet she's also funny and not condescending. And she's gonna tell us how she's gonna tell us about a book that she just put out called, how to parent, but it's not that kind of book. It's not like how to parent I'm telling you what to do. Its parent, its capital P dot a dot, it's the initials parent, which is an acronym. So I'm going to introduce Jackie, tell us why your book's title is an acronym.

    Jackie Santillan
    Well, hi, first of all, thanks for having me this and what a lovely introduction. Thank you so much. Well, okay, so I wrote this book, because I am, I didn't invent parenting. Obviously, I'm not the first parent. I didn't invent gentle parenting. But I've always been a big fan of mnemonics and acronyms to help me remember how to do things. And so I started doing that on my social media, and people really responded. And it's helped them to remember some of the strategies. I think, when you're in the middle of a tantrum or meltdown, or like big emotions of any kind. It's really hard to remember what you've learned either. However you learned it, you know? So it's helpful to have an acronym that you can be like, oh, yeah, I remember when my kids and my kids having a meltdown. And this is what I should do. And so it's a book called How to parent which stands for possibly actually remember everything next time. And every chapter is an acronym or a mnemonic to help you remember what to do in those big situations.

    Jen
    I love that you call it the stop drop and roll of parenting. We all remember to stop drop and roll, right? Yeah, I would definitely misfire prevention.

    Jackie Santillan
    I believe it I would expect anything less. Anyway. Wait, you like you taught it?

    Jen: Welcome to MomCave LIVE where we may have lost our minds, but we haven't lost our sense of humor. Hi, I'm Jen, and I'm here with Tirralan Watkins, who is the Tinseltown mom. Hi, we're going to go live on all the platforms. So give me one second. Let's see if it goes live on Instagram as well. Maybe we're... Oh, wow. Okay, there we are. So, Hi, tell everybody how you became Tinseltown Mom.

    Tirralan Watkins: Well, it started when I was just a child, of course, a daughter. So growing up, I was always pursuing acting. I'm from the Bay Area. So in the Bay Area, I was doing theater and commercials and everything that I could do in the Bay Area. But we all know that the capital of the entertainment industry is Hollywood. Totally. Yeah. So after I got my undergrad degree in communications, I decided to move to Los Angeles to pursue my acting career further. So as I was pursuing my acting career, I, and I'm not telling the full story because it's so long. So, of course, you know, as you're pursuing a career, you do dabble into other things. So at the time, I started my own talk show, a local talk show called "Impact." It was on a cable access station, yes.

    Jen: The internet's, yes, cable access.

    Tirralan Watkins: Yes, your cable access. Yeah, yeah. So I was doing my show on cable access 20-plus years ago, and actually, my first Tinseltown mom before I became Tinseltown mom was Sherri Shepherd. It was before she was a mom as well, but she was my first guest, yeah, for my show. So I did the show, and I interviewed an Olympian and some other actresses, comedians, etc. While I was still pursuing my acting career, eventually, at my church, I decided to join a small writing group called..

    Jen: See, it says "live." It says "live." We're completely live. Welcome to MomCave LIVE, where we may have lost our minds, but we haven't lost our sense of humor. Tonight, I'm live with my buddy Meredith. You might know her from "That's Inappropriate." All things that are inappropriate. We're just doing great. Are we halfway through summer?

    Meredith Masony: I think so. Well, my kids go back to school on August 10.

    Jen: So you go back to school much sooner than us.

    Meredith Masony: Yes, Florida goes back, but we were out on May 25.

    Jen: Oh my god. Okay, so we're just shifted. It's the same thing. I'm trying to make us go live on all the platforms and go live on Instagram. Let us know if you're watching. Leave a comment on Facebook. Say hello. We're going to talk about how we survive with kids during the summer. So, Meredith, do you have a busy summer?

    Meredith Masony: Well, let's see, my kids are 17, 14, and 12. My oldest just got back two days ago from seven days at a pole vaulting camp. When my daughter leaves, he leaves again on Friday for another pole vaulting camp. My daughter leaves on Sunday for a week at a camp in Tennessee, which isn't even in the same state as we are. And then she comes home on Saturday, and I get to wash all of her clothes, repack everything, and then drive her to her next camp the day after.

    Jen: Oh, wow.

    Surviving Busy Schedules and Enjoying a Staycation.

    Meredith Masony: At that camp, she's going with my youngest. Today and tomorrow are the only two days this summer that all of my kids were home at the same time. So we decided to make a quick staycation out of it, just so we could spend some time with them. It's been brutal with sports, camps, and everyone's activities......

    Amanda: Hello. Thank you for having me

    Jen: Of course. So, dude mom makes me assume that you have dudes as opposed to dudettes in your life. Is that it?

    Amanda: That is an accurate but funny story. I have had people email me and like see, like little pitches or something. They're like, Oh, hey, dude, you see that as my name. And I even had somebody once think that I was a dude who was a mom. So clarify, I am not a dude. I am a mom.

    Jen: Yes, right. But you did tell me you're from California originally. So that's very like dude, like, yeah. Cool. So I heard about your book. And I thought that would be fun to talk about. So, everybody, Amanda has a book, which I could probably put on the screen at some point. But we'll get to that. It's on Amazon, of course, where all the books are. And tell us about the book, what's it called, and what's in it.

    Amanda: It's 50 Things to Do in Baby's first year. And it is a book that is written more, not from like, the 50 Like milestones that you need to cover as a parent or anything. It's more about keeping your sanity as a mom, and yeah, that you should do to maintain yourself and your humanity because I don't know about the rest of you guys, but that my mother, my early mothering days nearly snatched the humanity away from me...

    Jen: That’s not her speed at all. If you don’t know Dena, she’s One Funny Mother in all the places, and she is a very funny mother, and the best thing is, I can’t believe you go live every single day. In the morning, right?

    Dena Blizzard: I do. With no plan and no content to speak of. And then we just find out what the world wants to talk about in the morning.

    Jen: Amazing. I really admire that because I don’t think, I don’t want to talk to anyone in the morning. Anyone in the morning for like, a long time and my, I’m never like ready. I see you in the morning. Sometimes I see you pop up going live when I’m driving my kids to school. And I’m often still in my pajamas with like, no makeup on and you know…

    Dena Blizzard: Not all the time. Well, the funny thing is if there were people here I wouldn’t want to talk to any of those people. But random strangers like on the internet. I’m like, come on in. Let’s have a cup of tea. And let’s just talk about nonsense so.

  • We know you've heard the old saying it takes a village! In this day of age, we understand it may be hard, but not impossible, to have your own village.

    Jen and Florence Ann Romano discuss the importance of building a "village" of supportive relationships, particularly for mothers. They emphasize that building a village isn't always easy, and it takes time and effort to find the right people who align with your values and personalities. Florence also stresses that having a full social calendar doesn't necessarily mean you have the right people in your life, as the right people should "fill up your cup, not deplete it." She shares her personal experience about how one of her best friendships was formed through a mutual friend and how she encourages readers to share their own stories of how they met their best mom friends.

    Florence Ann Romano: I'm so happy to be here. Thanks for having me.

    Jen: Florence has a book that's about to come out any day now. Right?

    Florence Ann Romano: February 21st. I dream about it at night. I get nervous. I wake up in the morning. I'm like, is it February!?

    Jen: Almost, it's almost February. So the book is called "Build your Village." We all know the saying, you know, it takes a village to raise a child. Sometimes it's really, really hard to find that village. I feel like I'm wandering the earth, being like, where is this village? Where are these people? Because some of the villages I've wandered into haven't worked out or don't make me feel as welcome. You got to find your village. So that's what we're going to talk about today. Right? Yeah. Florence, tell us a little bit about the book, how it came about, and everything.

    Florence Ann Romano: I'm just I'm holding it next to him because, honestly, not even just because we're doing this live, but because it's like always sitting here in my chair with me.

    Jen: It's like another baby, you birthed another baby.

    Florence Ann Romano: I mean, here it is, this is the galley copy. The reason why honestly, I wrote it was during COVID, I was looking at what was the common denominator for all of us going through it. And all of us knew on a global level what it felt like to lose our community to lose our village, to lose our people. And it started me thinking about the.......

    Jen: Welcome to MomCave LIVE where we may have lost our minds, but we haven't lost our sense of humor. I am Jen and our guest today is Samantha Reynolds. And she's gonna pop on the camera any second. Hi, Samantha.

    Samantha Reynolds: Hello. Hi, Jen.

    Jen: Are you a SAM or Samantha?

    Samantha Reynolds: I'm totally a Sam. Yeah, I'll clean my room if you call me Samantha.

    Jen: Good. I want to be like, you know, casual. So I felt like Sam is much more than smart, casual. Cool. Okay, so. So if you don't know who Sam is, she goes by the nom de plume- Is that how you say it? The very fancy way of saying her writer's name. Her name is Bent Lily on Instagram. And despite being a mom like the rest of us and having a real job and everything, Sam writes a poem every single day for how many years now?

    Samantha Reynolds: Well, I can count because my son's 12. So yeah, 12 years. Holy...

    Jen: Holy moly. Okay. That's there's so much to unpack there. And I can't wait to do it. Janice said hello from the Bronx. Hey, hello, Janice. If you have any questions for Sam, just pop them in the comments, and I will read them out loud. So, Sam, okay, tell me about when did poetry start?

    Samantha Reynolds: So I was given advice. I don't know if you remember this, but I was get advice when I was pregnant. Like this first year of you being a mom, and this first year of your new baby's life. It's so fleeting, like it's gonna fly by, before you know it, it'll be gone. And really,it might be hard, but like, really try to savor it. Because, you know, before you know it, you know, this little like infant phase will be over. And I was on deck for it. Like I'd you know, I've been reading, doing yoga. I was like, ready, I was like, I'm gonna meditate my way through this, I'm really going to be observing. Sorry, I'm--

    Jen: I'm laughing at you after you.... Go on.

    Samantha Reynolds: And then you know, like it was it actually in some ways, it wasn't... He was a pretty good sleeper. ........

    Debbie Ausburn:
    Hi, how are you?

    Jen:
    Good. Great to see you. The title of your book is exactly what we want to talk about here. And it’s “Raising Other People’s Children: What Foster Parenting Taught Me about Bringing Together a Blended Family.” So we have a lot of blended families that are around here on MomCave. And we’ve got their foster families, their step-parenting families, grandparenting families. Every kind of family imaginable, and we need to know how to make it work.


    Debbie’s background and how she got started in this field.

    Debbie Ausburn:
    I’ve done all of it, except biological families. I’ve never had any biological kids. But I’ve collected seven kids and 10 grandkids.

    Jen:
    Wow. Okay, so you’re the stepmom to seven kids?...

    Jen of MomCaveTV:

    Welcome to Momcave LIVE, where we may have lost our minds, but we haven’t lost our sense of humor. I’ve certainly lost my mind. I’m Jen. I’m happy to be here doing live, which we haven’t done in a while. And we have a special guest today, which is, tada. They’re going to show her in 3..2..1.. Maia Haag. From “I See Me!” books. Maia is here, because she is going to talk with us about holiday traditions. So first of all, Maia is the co-founder of “I See Me!” books, which are personalized books. They’re awesome. We’ve had a few in our family. And they have a new one coming out for Christmas that we’ll talk about. Maia, I assume you’re a mom. Yes?

    Maia: I’m a mom of three. Yeah.

    Jen: I knew there were yes, multiple children.

    Maia: Mom three times over.

    Jen: So do you have any, like, what’s your biggest holiday tradition that you do in your family?


    Family Holiday Tradition: Santa always drops a Present on our roof by mistake

    Maia: We have two big ones. I would say one is Santa always drops a present on our roof, by mistake, with his sleigh and so every Christmas morning the kids run out. And my husband uses a rake and there’s snow on the roof because we live in Minnesota. We have to find the present on the roof and rake it down. And it always bounces off the driveway, so it can’t be anything too electronic, and it’s soggy because it’s been sitting in the snow.

    Jen: It’s something that can’t really get wet, right?....
