   Number 2: Schedules, LEGO Obsessions & Knowing Your Worth

   Back-to-school season is here, and Jill, Melissa, and Kelly are diving into the chaos, memories, and everything that comes with getting kids back on a schedule! They debate the pros and cons of keeping kids busy—does a packed schedule keep them off their phones and out of trouble, or can it sometimes be too much? They also take a trip down memory lane talking about the toys their kids grew up with and why LEGO has become such a huge obsession for kids and adults. Jill is still holding a grudge against Erno and refuses to talk to him, even though he’s trying to make peace. Plus, they share advice for those moments when you—or someone else—makes you feel like you’re not smart enough. Kelly opens up about having a slight learning disability her whole life and reminds everyone that learning differently doesn’t mean you aren’t smart—you’re just smart in different ways.

   Number 3: Robot Massages, Self Checkout & Laundromats!

   AI is taking over—and Jill, Melissa, and Kelly have a LOT to say about it! The moms chat about the good, the bad, and the downright strange side of AI, from Kelly getting a massage by a robot to self-checkout taking over everywhere and the disappearing art of genuine customer service. Melissa is back from LA after a fun trip with Kenzie celebrating Romeo’s 2nd birthday and cheering on the Dodgers. She also shares a heartbreaking story about a family in her neighborhood who recently lost their home in a fire, leaving them with nothing. Then things take a surprising turn when Melissa and Kelly reveal how much they actually love going to the laundromat—and why they think they could open one of their own! Melissa’s would be pink and happy, while Kelly’s would have a bar. 😂 Jill has never been to a laundromat and is ready to see what all the hype is about! Plus, the moms offer advice to a new mom who is getting ready to return to work. Jill can especially relate as Riley is navigating the same transition. Have a question for the moms?

   Number 4: Broadway, Birthday Cake & Morgan Needs A Bath

   This week, Jill, Kelly, and Melissa are talking birthdays, big moves, Broadway and more. Kelly’s dad just celebrated his 80th birthday, and Kelly shares how she turned a plain tiered Sam’s Club cake into a personalized masterpiece with a little DIY decorating. The moms also get real about decluttering after helping their kids move and seeing firsthand just how much stuff we accumulate over the years. While they all have special keepsakes from their kids that they’ll treasure forever, Jill has an important message: your kids probably don’t want all your stuff… so DECLUTTER! And yes, that means she is staying out of HomeGoods. Melissa is also getting ready to take the train to NYC to visit Kenzie, who will soon make her Broadway debut in & Juliet! Melissa thinks Kenzie may be a New Yorker at heart after falling in love with the city. And then things take a turn… Kelly recounts a recent issue of getting so sick that she started wondering if she had the dreaded “salad virus.” Unfortunately, her own dog Morgan became an innocent victim, and now Kelly has a whole new problem: how do you get that smell out of your dog?!

   Number 5: Coffee, Controversy & Could We Do DWTS?

   The moms kick things off by showing some love to women-owned golf brands and talking about the importance of supporting women in the industry following the recent golf ad controversy. Meanwhile, Kelly is trying to make some healthier choices and maybe shed a few pounds—starting with an apple for a snack! Naturally, that leads to a very important discussion about everyone's favorite types of apples. Melissa has one thing on her mind the moment she wakes up: COFFEE. She truly believes people who don't drink coffee are missing out on one of life's greatest joys...but how much coffee is too much? Melissa shares that she's been called for jury duty, leading the moms to reflect on the difficult questions surrounding the Lindsay Clancy case. They discuss how challenging it would be to make a decision in a case like that, what the outcome could mean for future cases involving mental illness, and why it's so important to check in with yourself and prioritize your mental health. A Speakpipe question brings up Dancing With The Stars. Would Jill, Kelly or Melissa ever compete on their own? Would they do it with one of their daughters? And perhaps most importantly...why has no one ever put a mom/daughter team up against another mom/daughter team?! Have a question for the moms?
