Motherish

Can you believe it?! .. Motherish Moments, the podcast, turns one! This little baby, our little project that we started not really knowing what we were doing, is celebrating its first year. Our babies have grown and this amazing community has grown with them. We are so grateful and we are excited because the best is yet to come!

We cannot speak about family without mentioning our siblings: that little brother or little sister who have now grown up to be the "funcle" and cool aunt. Some say they are the unsung heroes in our village, and others may argue they add the fun to the chaos. Today Pamela & Karen dig a little deeper and discuss how their relationships with their siblings, Paloma & Miguel, have influenced our thoughts on our current & future babies.

S02E15 - Siblings

With Thanksgiving around the corner we take a pause among the chaos to recap what we are grateful for. From the smallest & silliest things, to the major blessings we can't take for granted. We hope this exercise of listing what you’re grateful for also puts you in a thankful state of mind.

Today Pamela & Karen chat about "the invisible list." As mothers we continue to not only add more and more things to our daily to-do-list, but we actually also manage an entire other invisible to-do list on the side. YUP! Things that just get done magically. Today we vent and talk about how we could manage to be and, most importantly, manage to feel more productive as we tackle this “invisible list.”

You probably know by now that Karen is all about celebrating EVERYTHING! In this week's episode, Pamela surprised Karen during their recording and did some real-time celebration for Karen's Birthday as they took a trip down memory lane talking about Karen's childhood.

She’s a mother of three and the lead pastor at Vous church in Miami. Pastor DawnChere Wilkerson joins us for a heart-to-heart conversation about how she manages the pressures of motherhood, womanhood and leading a community. She's here to remind us that even in our darkest season we must lean on each other, let go, believe and inhale faith, exhale stress.

Pamela & Karen have a candid conversation with Argelia Atilano about how and why we should take risks, both personally and professionally, and why it's important to reinvent ourselves and take actions when we are constantly mom-dreaming.

Some see it as an extreme measure, others see it as a luxury, many don't even know much about it - today we're talking about oocyte cryopreservation, fancy word for egg freezing. Why aren't more women familiarized with this option? And what is it exactly? We all know our biological clocks are ticking so why aren't we doing more to preserve our dreams of being mothers? Today Pamela shares her journey of freezing her eggs as we chat with fertility expert Dr. Hernández-Rey.

Feeding your baby, meal prepping, or even just making a simple dinner for your family can seem like overwhelming tasks when you're trying to juggle the care of kids and keeping your household together. Today we talk to Food Director at Real Simple, freelance writer, culinary instructor, and personal chef Jenna Helwig about how we could keep it simple in the kitchen!
