I'm The One Pushing: A podcast for moms who live outside the box episodes

  • 17. Tina Poppy // Sperm Delivery
    Ivette has a little taste of a juicy yet perfectly elegant 2010 Domaine de la Chevalerie "Bretêche" Bourgueil Cab Franc with singer/songwriter/vintage fashion guru/mother Tina Poppy. They talk about growing up in Milwaukee, procuring sperm from a bank, how her boyfriend shuttled her donor's low-count semen, her water birth dreams going down the drain, and delivering a nine-plus pound baby girl without any drugs. Ouch is right.

  • 15. Kathleen Dennehy // When Someone else Pushes Her

    Ivette attempts a Chardonnay wine tasting with writer/mother Kathleen Dennehy. They only drink a little bit of an "oaky" (oaky is not okay in Ivette's wine play book) 2014 Au Bon Climat from Santa Barbara. They talk about open adoption, foster child adoption, racial issues, social problems, gender fluidity, teenage rebellion, Catholic guilt, and trying to have sex while the kids are asleep. Not necessarily in that order.

  • 14. Sharla Sumpter Bridgett // Keeping Childbirth Polite

    Ivette drinks a sriracha-infused Bloody Mary with producer/mother Sharla Sumpter Bridgett. They talk about trying to keep childbirth "polite," raising two girls, the biggest cliché that is so true ("it all goes by so quickly"), potty training, breaking every rule on co-sleeping and sleep training, channeling Beyoncé, and "brookies."

  • 13. Alex Cohen // On Motherhood and Roller Derby

    Ivette drinks buzzy ITO EN canned tea with radio host/author/mother Alex Cohen at KPCC Southern California. They converse about her awkward teenage years, her roller derby days as Axels of Evil and Smother Theresa, talking her husband into having a baby, struggling with breastfeeding, navigating mommy politics and judgment, overcoming self-doubt and becoming all the mom she can be, and how she wants to hand-deliver radio compassionately through customized modern air waves that can get to you faster than a Lyft driver. Check out her parenting podcast "The Brood," and don't miss her "Morning Edition" on KPCC on your way to work. www.imtheonepushing.com
