  • Welcome to the Minivan Mamas Podcast!

    Hey! We're the Minivan Mamas - Alexa and Cherish.

    We record from our minivans every week, because quite frankly that’s the quietest place we could find.

    Join us each week as we spill the tea - all while drinking our diet cokes. We dive into all the things real life & motherhood such as- mom fails, why-didn't-anyone-tell-me-that-about-postpartum, best and worst marriage moments, all the junk we find in our vans, and taboo topics. Basically all the things you talk about with your girl friends.

    Motherhood is hard enough and you shouldn't have to go through it alone.

    Let's do this together, buckle up!
