Cori and Rachel catch up on the big move. The moms talk about empathy and weight of never taking a day off of motherhood. Daycare hits a wall but inspires a new dream. Rachel celebrates her birthday. If you’re looking for an escape from the chaos of everything going on right now, this episode is it!

This week, the motto is: fake it til you make it. The moms wonder: where is the line when there’s a public meltdown? Rachel and Cori talk through the drama around The Resilient Jenkins, the narrative of boys being “left behind,” and how they talk about college with their kids. Dressing the part as a professional woman who is also a mom is getting more difficult. Cori talks about the upcoming transitions in her life.

What a week! Rachel and Cori discuss fall activities with little kids gone awry, a birthday party recap, Rachel’s road trip with her mom that ALSO went awry, the nightmare of a c-section scar reopening, 17 diapers, more TikTok drama…believe us when we say it’s a juicy one.

This week, the moms are talking survival with two: bedtime, sleep, schedules (or lack thereof), behavior - and how you really just don’t know what kind of mom you’ll be the first or second time around. Rachel tries a new dance class, and Cori tries ChatGPT to solve her parenting problems.
