What really goes on inside Cheer Moms Anonymous?

In this episode, we’re joined by Gina Bartel, the voice behind the wildly popular Cheer Moms Anonymous community, where moms share the real, raw, and sometimes hilarious questions they might not ask anywhere else.

But this time… we flipped the script.

Gina brings some of those anonymous questions to the show, and I give a dad’s perspective—unfiltered, honest, and sometimes completely different from what you’d expect. From competition drama to gym dynamics, parent pressure, and everything in between… nothing was off limits.

This episode is a fun, eye-opening look at the cheer world from both sides of the parent aisle—and a reminder that moms and dads might see things differently, but we’re all just trying to show up for our kids.

If you’ve ever sat at a comp and thought, “Are we the only ones dealing with this?”… trust me, you’re not.
