This week, we’re diving deep into the wonderful world of periods — what they say about your health, hormones, and fertility. Sarah sits down with Kirsten Karchmer, Women’s Health Expert, Author of Seeing Red, and Founder of Conceivable Technologies, to decode what’s "normal", what’s not, and how to actually make your cycle work for you.

If your period changed after kids, if you’ve ever wondered whether it’s postpartum or perimenopause, or if you just want to feel more in sync with your body — this one’s for you!

If you’re also drowning in “fun” family activities, this one’s for you. Grab your PSL and let's have a good laugh before we all collectively lose it.

This week on Bottle Service, Sarah sits down with a true powerhouse: Mia Funt, Co-Founder and President of ByHeart. If you’ve walked down the formula aisle at Target, Whole Foods, or Walmart, chances are you’ve seen ByHeart—a company that’s been changing the game in infant nutrition.

In this episode, Mia gets real about the formula industry, breaking down what parents should know as consumers, and sharing her perspective on the stigma and mom guilt that so often surround formula feeding. She also opens up about her own motherhood journey of raising three kids while building a company from the ground up, and what it’s really like to juggle family and entrepreneurship.

Whether you’re navigating feeding choices, motherhood, or just looking for inspo to get back into work, this one's for you!

Who knew that the life of a Showgirl included wiping butts, cleaning out throw-up buckets and scooping poop from the bathtub? NOT THIS GIRL. Sarah spends the week solo parenting two sick kids, contemplates the exploitation of mothers by the patriarchy and tries to hold it together long enough to hear the new Taylor Swift Album. It's a wild ride, buckle up!

We've got not one, but two fabulous guests today, Tori Dietz and Tayla Burke, the hilarious duo behind the motherhood podcast Did We Just Become MILFS!

This episode feels like grabbing lunch (and a couple of mimosas) with your mom friends. The walls come down and the conversation gets real. We’re talking mom-shaming, the hacks currently saving our sanity, and how to keep that MILF energy alive… even on the days when you’d rather just dress like Adam Sandler 😂

It’s fun, candid, and packed with those honest mom moments we all need more of. PLUS we’re doing a podcast swap this week! So make sure to check out our episode on the Did We Just Become MILFS podcast too!

This week on Bottle Service, we’re joined by the amazing Katie Beach — mom of 2 (soon to be 3!), content creator, and one of the brightest lights in the motherhood space. If you follow Katie on Instagram or TikTok, you already know her for her refreshingly real yet positive take on mom life... which, let’s be honest, is the content we all need more of!

In this episode we cover SO MUCH— from navigating the “roommate stage” with your partner, to embracing life as a Type C mom. Going for baby #3, building "the village", being in the “dead parents club,” and of course, a few of the countless parenting hacks she’s become known for.

For anyone else DEEP in the motherhood trenches, this episode is for you!
