March 09, 2020 I Ate My Feelings and They Were Delicious (16)
We've all eaten our feelings before, right? I know we're not the only ones. In this episode, we talk about our favorite trigger foods -- the ones we just can't stop eating once we start. We'll also talk about a couple things that may help you create some barriers so maybe next time you only eat one sleeve of Thin Mints instead of two. (We are not medical professionals by any stretch of the imagination.)

February 17, 2020 Mothering during Cancer with Lara MacGregor (13)
On this week’s episode of Murky Motherhood, we welcome our very first guest! Lara MacGregor, founder of Hope Scarves, joins us for a conversation about mothering during cancer. We talk about how to ask for help, how to support people going through a trauma like a cancer diagnosis, and more.
About Lara
Audrey's cousin Lara was 30 years old and 7-months pregnant when she was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. She talks about the complete and utter shock of receiving a cancer diagnosis during her 3rd trimester (with a 2 year old son at home, too). Lara's journey doesn't end there - years later, her cancer metastasized which makes her now a stage 4 metastatic breast cancer patient. She lives life over cancer daily and chronicles her experience on her blog My Hopeful Life and podcast A Hopeful Life.
We are so thankful to Lara for taking time to share her hope with us!
