In this episode, I’m taking you inside our Palm Springs trip - how I made it happen (the juggle is real!), the booking strategies I swear by to get great rates (my hotel hack will seriously surprise you!), and the little things that made it feel so good once we were there.

We’re talking slow mornings, pool time, and the kind of reading that you can’t put down (yes, I’m sharing my thoughts on Strangers by Belle Burden - the book everyone is talking about right now).

I’m also sharing a few current favourites - from Lola’s new vitamins to the creator I keep coming back to when I want something easy and comforting - plus the small things that are making life feel a little more enjoyable lately.

And because I know how chaotic this season can feel, I’m giving you access to my FREE Summer Calendar Template - the exact system I use to map out camps, travel, and everything in between. You're going to be so organized!

It’s honest, a little all over the place in the best way, and feels like a real catch-up - let's hang out for a bit!

The Mom Flow Podcast — Episode 4

In this episode, I’m kicking off a new segment I’m calling Petty Rants™️ - because we all have those small, slightly irrational things that just… get under our skin. I’m sharing mine (and yes, Coachella content is on the list).

Then we get into a very real conversation around The Valley - specifically Kristen and Luke’s postpartum dynamic, and my honest take on the pressure, expectations, and what’s actually fair during that phase.

And of course, some recos and catch-up along the way - the kind of conversation that feels like a voice note from your mom bestie.

In this episode of The Mom Flow Podcast, I’m sharing a mix of life lately, real talk, and a few things I’ve been loving - starting with some recent recommendations and podcast listens that are worth adding to your list.

From there, we get into a more personal conversation around friendship - including a real-life situation I recently navigated with someone who didn’t show up for me when my mom passed. I’m sharing how that conversation unfolded, what it brought up for me, and how it ultimately strengthened the relationship.

We also talk about adult friendships more broadly - what they actually look like, how I show up as a friend, and what I value most in the people I keep close.

And to round it out, I’m sharing some parenting hot takes - the things I do with Lola that might not be everyone’s approach (and that’s okay). Consider this your reminder that there’s no one “right” way - just what works for you and your family.

As always, this is honest, unfiltered, and feels like a voice note from your mom bestie.

This one is a true Q&A - and you guys asked everything.

From how to not feel defensive when people make comments, to prioritizing my mental health as a busy mom, to the real conversations around marriage, sharing your kids online, if I grew up with a dad… we’re getting into it and diving into topics I’ve never spoken about before.

I also share a bit more about what I’m doing right now with my health (and what working with my Naturopathic Doctor actually looks like), plus a couple of things I’ve been loving lately - including a podcast reco and a cashmere find I’m fully obsessed with.

It’s a little bit of everything, very honest, and exactly what it would sound like if we were catching up one-on-one or if my voice note landed in your unread text inbox.

In this first episode of The Mom Flow Podcast, I’m sitting down for a real, unfiltered life lately catch-up. I’m sharing what the past few weeks have actually looked like behind the scenes - from navigating grief after losing my mom, to trying to find my footing again in the day-to-day.

We get into the small things that have been helping me move through it all - leaning into creativity through home projects, creating routines that feel comforting, and slowly rebuilding a sense of normalcy in a season that feels anything but. I also open up about where I’m at with my health right now, including starting to explore perimenopause and advocating for better support as women - something I feel so strongly about.

This episode really sets the tone for what this podcast is going to be: honest, evolving, a little all over the place at times, and deeply real. Think of it like a voice note from your mom bestie - the kind where you just hit record and say what’s actually on your mind. No pressure to have it all figured out, just figuring it out together.
