The Also Mom Podcast

Monet Moutrie is a birth photographer based out of Denver, Colorado. In her infinite spare time (ha), she co-founded Birth Becomes Her, where she teaches the art and business of birth photography, spreading awareness and doing her part to normalize a variety of birth experiences. As if that weren’t enough, she’s also mom to three little girls—Lucy, Eliza, and Dorothy.

Erin Boyle is the founder of Reading My Tea Leaves, a blog where Erin writes about slow, simple living in a big city. She is also mom to Faye, who just turned five, and Silas, who’s two and a half.

If you live for carefully chosen things and thoughtfully considered words... and if clutter hurts your soul, then you’re going to love Erin Boyle. Side benefit: This episode is probably going to inspire you to finish your most recent Konmari-ing attempt.

Dana is the founder and CEO of Dana's Bakery, a direct to consumer bakery specializing in French macarons with an American twist, and also mom to Leni, who's almost three, and another baby girl due later this summer.

In this conversation, we talk about motherhood, entrepreneurship, and some of the little life stuff in between.

Hannah is a photographer, a content creator, a seeker of beautiful things. A knitter, a calligrapher, a surfer, a skier, a freaking medical doctor, and, of course, she’s also mom to two little boys, Oscar and Wilf.

We talk about how and why she used her long British maternity leave to re-engage with her creative side, how that helped ground and recenter her as she redefined her new postpartum identity, and her thoughts on Instagram in general, which I personally find to be quite refreshing.

In addition to sharing beautiful, healthy recipes on Instagram, Robin is a nutritionist, a fitness afficionado, a former model, and also mom to 8 month old Poppy.

Robin's fitness and modeling backgrounds have informed much of who she is these days, as a mother and otherwise, but in ways you might not expect. She has a refreshingly gentle take on mothering intuitively, on how she and her husband think about parenting together, and on how she thinks about her creative pursuits going forward.

I love a good entrepreneur hero’s journey, and Nell’s is a solid one. Here, Nell and I talk about how she’s juggled motherhood and entrepreneurship, how she built a thriving business while simultaneously growing a thriving human, and what she’s sacrificed—both knowingly and unknowingly at the time—along the way.

Alicia Quinn—who you likely know by her self-described alter ego, Alicia Sacramone—was the team captain for Team USA’s gymnastics team at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, where she helped the team earn a silver medal. These days, in addition to coaching gymnastics here and there, broadcasting for the SEC Network, and keeping fit with the help of her side project “The Gympire,” Alicia is also mom to Sloan, who’s 2.5 and Teagan, who’s 8 months.

MacKenzie Miller Kozlowski (@mackenzieyoga) is a world renowned yoga teacher and also mom to 1.5-year-old Adler. She shares about how she’s transformed since becoming a mother, how meditation has helped her process her grief after miscarriage, and why she’s so inspired to support mothers with the platform she originally created to share great pictures of fancy backbends.
