  • 5 Dating Tips for Single Parents

    Happy Hump Day, Tribe. This week, Good Moms talk about what dating actually looks like when you’re a parent (the boundaries, the red flags, the late-night texts). The balance between protecting your peace and still wanting to feel something.

    Erica and Milah share five dating tips for single parents, not from a rule book, but from lived experience. If you’re outside, cautiously outside, or just thinking about stepping back in… this one’s for you.

    In this episode the ladies talk about:

    • Why dating to be “saved” always backfires
    • Learning how to be alone (and why it becomes fun when you make it a vibe)
    • Being honest from the start and dating from a friendship-first foundation
    • How to spot double standards, and red flags before you’re attached
    • Why you should never blend families too fast or “play house” too soon

  • Manifesting A Revolutionary Partner Feat. Lizzy Jeff

    In this episode, Erica and Milah sit down with Lizzy Jeff. The ladies talk about what it’s like to build something over a long period of time, how priorities change as you get older, and the quiet shifts that happen when you stop forcing yourself into certain timelines.

    The conversation moves through aging, work, creativity, femininity, and cannabis culture, with Lizzy sharing stories from her 10 years building Zen & Kush and what she’s noticing now about rest, embodiment, and how her body plays a role in decision-making. They also touch on relationships, partnership, and how being clear about what you want can look different in each phase of life.

     

    In this episode, you can expect to hear:

    • What it actually takes to sustain a creative project over a decade
    • Conversations about getting older and rethinking timelines around success and life
    • How femininity, leadership, and sensuality can exist at the same time
    • Cannabis as part of ritual, culture, and community
    • Thoughts on rest, embodiment, and listening to your body
    • Reflections on love, dating, and clarity around relationships

  • Spiritual STD's and Jumping Timelines

    Can a toxic ex leave you physically itchy?

    In this episode of Good Moms talk about energy transfer, "spiritually transmitted demons", and what it takes to reinvent yourself when the old version of you no longer fits. From de-centering men (and why that conversation is misunderstood) to centering yourself in a way that finally feels grounding, the girls unpack how survival identities can overstay their welcome.

    The girls talk honestly about watching close friends finally leave relationships that no longer serve them, how one big decision can completely change your timeline, and why telling your friends the truth (even when it’s uncomfortable) can be an act of love.Erica shares a vulnerable mushroom realization that made her understand why an old, hyper-guarded version of herself needed to be laid to rest, not erased, not shamed, but honored and released.

    Growth is messy, honesty matters, and sometimes the bravest thing you can do is let go of what once kept you safe.

    Happy New Year Tribe, 

    Erica and Milah are happy to be back but are easing into the new year! The ladies chat about Milah's bachelorette party and how she's "retiring" from lesbianism (for now), insecurity vs. preference, UN-learning saving people, and why sometimes you just want snacks and molly water lol.

    • What it means to be “too healed to hoe,” and how sexual freedom can evolve without shame

  • The MAGA Hat in Bali

    Happy holidays tribe!

    In the last episode of the year, Good Moms reflect on what they will and won't carry with them into 2026, how doom-scrolling quietly messes with your mood, and why anxiety can show up even when life is “fine.” They open up about guilt of doing well while the world feels heavy, parenting in a hyper-digital world, and admitting you don’t actually have it all figured out! 

    In this episode you can expect to hear: 

    • Erica’s pool-side Bali experience with a woman wearing a MAGA hat and how it reminded her to protect your energy
    • Taking your children’s phone away, opening an honest conversation about technology, trust, safety, and how childhood conditioning influences parenting decisions.
    • Erica and Milah talk about feeling stretched thin while trying to show up for work, kids, partners, family, and friendships and realizing that spreading energy everywhere isn’t sustainable.
    • Why you need to go further in your boldness
    • How Good Vibes retreat has cultivated real community and lasting friendships
    • Intuition, mushrooms, listening to the body, and discerning what information and energy to trust.
    • Relying less on the internet and more on inner knowing.
    • The episode closes with intentions around release, presence, and entering the next chapter with clearer boundaries, stronger discernment, and a commitment to boldness.

  • Your Pre-Holiday Grounding Session Feat Lizzy Jeff

    This week, Good Moms are resurfacing an episode we know you probably need right now.

    As the holidays creep in with family drama, emotional burnout, pressure to “be on,” and zero time for yourself, we wanted to bring back a conversation that helps you slow down and remember your power before the season sweeps you up.

    We’re revisiting our episode with the magical Lizzy Jeff because it’s grounding, soothing, and low-key a whole self-care ritual in audio form. If you’re already feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or like you need a little feminine reset…this is the one.

    You’ll hear:

    • What “toxic goddess culture” looks like in real life (and why you don’t have to be perfect to be in your goddess bag)
    • How to reconnect with your feminine energy on the days you don’t feel divine at all
    • Simple rituals, herbs, roses, and sensory practices that help you get back into your body
    • How to deal with emotional sensitivity without spiraling
    • Why your perception of yourself matters more now than ever
    • How to actually use your “goddess toolbox” when life gets chaotic

    We brought this episode back because it genuinely brings you back to you, your softness, your intuition, your pleasure, your peace. And with everything this season demands, you deserve a reminder that you’re allowed to slow down and honor yourself too.
