Sage Sisters

This week’s episode is a true October Smorgasbord; equal parts mom life, tech talk, and random obsessions.

Anne’s highs include kids conquering rollercoasters (and surviving a few ride mishaps herself), plus her latest Amazon obsession: a velvet comforter set that’s giving cozy fall vibes. Kate’s catching up after a Vegas trip, a family visit, and the mystery that is “tainted love.”

We’re chatting football close calls, Taylor Swift and parenting, and Anne’s new fascination with van life and ostrich travel pillows. Then we dive into big headlines, from Australia’s social media age ban to New York City suing Big Tech for creating a youth mental health crisis.

Plus, this week’s Tech Tip: how to empower kids through bystander training for bullying because speaking up matters.

It’s a wild ride (pun intended), but that’s mom life  and we’re here for all of it. 🎢💚

Tech Tip: Bystander training for bullying - How to talk to your kids.

• Kate: Good Instincts SunScreen

Sage Haven: Safer Messaging App for Kids

This week, we’re getting real about marriage, kids, and everything in between. How do you keep the spark alive when you’re also trying to raise tiny humans? How do you balance being parents and partners? And what does it look like to prioritize your relationship when your spouse is the one who will be with you long after the kids grow up and move out?

We’re sharing our own stories, the wins (and fails), and the funny little ways we try to stay connected through the chaos. Because marriage after kids is hard — but it’s also worth the laughs, the effort, and the late-night ice cream dates.

Tech Tip: When is bullying severe enough to reach out to the school or even the authorities?

Obsessions:

• Kate: Salt and Stone Neroli & Basil Extra-Strength Aluminum-Free Deodorant
• Anne:  Revlon Sugar Scrub Exfoliatant Lip Balm

Sage Haven: Safer Messaging App for Kids

This week we’re going off-script and answering the kinds of questions we usually keep to ourselves. We’re sharing:

• a worry we’re ready to let go of,
• something we’re currently learning about ourselves,
• our small wins of the week,
• the questions we wish someone would ask us,
• the thoughts we’re afraid to say out loud, and
• where we’d go if we could just disappear for a day.

It’s raw, funny, and a little vulnerable...like a group chat with your closest friends. Grab your coffee and join us as we open up about the things moms (and women) don’t always say out loud.

• Venus Williams’s triumphant, feel-good return to tennis.
• What a recent youth-sports survey is really telling—and what school and life lessons we might be missing.
• Why Olivia Rodrigo’s “pretty isn’t pretty” lyrics hit so deeply—especially when raising girls navigating self-worth, comparison, and beauty standards.

This week, Kate & Anne are putting each other in the hot seat for the ultimate Would You Rather: Mom Edition. From dreamy parenting perks (never packing a school lunch again) to hilariously impossible scenarios (get an extra hour of sleep every day or an extra $50 magically appear in your wallet every week?), nothing is off-limits. We’re mixing in marriage moments, everyday life dilemmas, and just enough chaos to keep it interesting.

Play along as you listen and see if you’d choose the same way we do… or if you’d totally call us out. Spoiler: there will be laughter, questionable logic, and a little too much honesty.
