Who teaches us what to do when we know something is wrong with our baby, but we don’t know what? When Nelle was struggling, figuring out that she had cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA)—and then finding the formula that finally gave her relief—felt like jumping through hoop after hoop while questioning myself the entire time. In this episode, I sit down with pediatrician Dr. Michael Milobsky to talk about CMPA, how it can look like colic, the formula options available, and how parents can advocate for answers when their baby is uncomfortable. We also talk about our own experience with Nelle, why Neocate ultimately worked for her, and what I wish I’d known when we were in the thick of it.

—

In this episode:

- The difference between colic and cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA)

- Signs and symptoms worth discussing with your pediatrician

- How to talk to your doctor if you suspect CMPA

- The benefits of extensively hydrolyzed (eHF) and amino acid-based formulas

- The difference between Pepticate and Neocate formulas

- How our family ultimately found the right formula for Nelle

In this rerun episode: I have one baby. Kailyn Lowry has seven. So obviously the first thing I asked her was how the f*ck her body has done that.

I've been a Kailyn girly since the original Teen Mom days, so sitting across from her felt like a full circle moment from my own MTV era. Bonus: within thirty seconds we'd figured out she was a Laguna girly too. Match made in heaven.

Kailyn has been a person in public since she was 17. Most of the women she came up with on MTV aren't here anymore. Kailyn is. She has millions of followers online, has built three podcasts, a podcast network, a book club, a publishing imprint, and a physical sports business in Delaware while raising seven kids with five different men. She also lives next door to one of her exes. They share a driveway. He can see into her kitchen window. Yes I asked her what that's like.

We get into the baby daddy speed round (one word per ex, you're welcome), how she found out about the cheating on TikTok and turned the whole thing into a three-part Patreon special because everybody else was profiting off her pain so why wouldn't she, the c-section shelf, the beads she bought at Hobby Lobby because of her ADHD, and why she has to apply a full year in advance to move out of Delaware.

Kailyn is one of the sharpest business minds I've sat across from. She also might be a little unhinged in the best possible way. Buckle up for a fantastic convo.

We’re told to validate every feeling, regulate our nervous systems, avoid trauma, limit screens, and somehow raise independent, resilient humans. So… have we made parenting way too complicated? This week, I’m sitting down with clinical psychologist, bestselling author, and conscious parenting expert Dr. Shefali to talk about why being a “good mom” has a lot less to do with perfect parenting than we think.

We get into conscious vs. gentle parenting, how our own childhood wounds show up in our kids, and why trying to get everything right might actually get in their way. Plus, we talk about the “manosphere,” smartphones and social media, the mental load between moms and dads, postpartum pressure, and why sometimes the best thing we can do as parents is simply calm down and trust ourselves.

—

In this episode:

- Conscious parenting vs. gentle parenting

- How childhood wounds affect parenting

- Regulating yourself before your child

- The rise of the “manosphere”

- How we raise boys vs. girls

- Postpartum pressure and asking for help

- Why good moms can have struggling kids

We talk a lot about what happens to women when they become mothers-but what happens to men when they become dads? This week, I’m sitting down with dad of four, attorney, entrepreneur, and Come Together podcast host Abe Lichy for a conversation about the side of parenthood we don’t hear nearly enough about: what dads are actually going through.

We talk about the pressure men feel to provide, protect, and quietly fix everything, why keeping that stress from your partner can actually create more distance in a marriage, and the surprisingly simple ways we can make each other feel seen after having kids. Plus, we get into raising children in a world of iPhones, Roblox, social media, and AI, why Abe wants his kids to have as much of an analog childhood as possible, and what reality TV has taught both of us about identity, attention, and knowing who you are outside of the version people see on screen.

—

In this episode:

-Why dads often hide their stress instead of talking about it

-How trying to “protect” your partner can create resentment in a marriage

-The pressure men feel to provide, protect, and hold everything together

-Why acknowledging your partner can make a bigger difference than you think

-Raising kids without smartphones and social media

-Why Abe refuses to give his 11-year-old an iPhone

-The problem with Roblox and the endless-loop economy of kids’ technology

-Giving kids an “analog” childhood in an increasingly digital world

-Reality TV, identity, and the danger of becoming addicted to attention

-What Abe hopes his four kids will someday say about him as a dad

Seven months postpartum, and I’m finally starting to feel a little more like myself- but motherhood has a funny way of making every step back toward yourself feel complicated. In this solo episode, I’m sharing an honest update on where I am now: taking my first girls’ trip without my daughter, navigating the guilt of going back to work, rebuilding my strength after pregnancy and a C-section, and realizing just how long “postpartum” can actually last.

We talk about the pressure to be everything at once, why taking care of yourself can feel strangely selfish after becoming a mom, and the village that’s made it possible for me to find a rhythm that finally feels sustainable. Plus, an update on Nell, what we’ve learned about her CMPA, and a few of the baby products we’re loving right now.

—

In this episode:

- The anxiety and guilt around leaving your baby for the first time

- Going back to work and missing the moments you’re not there for

- Rebuilding strength after pregnancy and a C-section

- Why I regret not exercising more during pregnancy

- Pelvic floor health and the things women should be taught much earlier

- Why postpartum can still feel very real seven months later

- Building a village, asking for help, and finding a sustainable rhythm

- An update on Nelle, CMPA, solids, sleep, and our current baby favorites

Caissie Levy won a Tony Award this year after more than two decades on Broadway. The speech went viral — not because of who she thanked, but because of who she didn't forget. The babysitters. The young women who traveled with her, lived with her family, and loved her kids when she couldn't be there. It was the most honest thing said on that stage all night.

In this episode, Caissie gets real about what it takes to build a life on Broadway while raising two kids — the schedule that keeps you from bedtime six nights a week, the moment she walked away from a new show because her son needed her, and why becoming a mom made her better at her job, not worse.

—

In this episode:

- Why Caissie thanked the babysitters at the Tonys — and what they actually meant to her career

- The Broadway schedule nobody talks about and what it costs you as a mom

- The moment she chose her son over a new show — and what happened next

- How motherhood made her braver, not more cautious, in her career

- Why the heartbreak and the joy of being a working mom always seem to show up at the same time
