This week, Janelle is joined by her first-ever guest, Madison LeBlanc Barbosa, creator, mom of two with a third on the way, and the woman behind the viral Monster-In-Law series.

 

They talk about how Madison unexpectedly built an online community, why so many women feel isolated after becoming mothers, and how her Monster-In-Law stories completely took on a life of their own.

 

Janelle and Madison also get into some of the wildest themes that keep showing up in submissions, why in-law dynamics often go sideways long before kids enter the picture, and what happens when expectations around support, boundaries, and control collide.

 

This chat is funny, eye-opening, and the kind of conversation that makes you feel a little less alone if you’ve ever thought, “it can’t just be me.”
