Is parenting today harder than it was 40 years ago? My mom, Donna Shadwell, joins us to kick off Season 2 with an honest, hilarious, and sometimes brutally real conversation about motherhood—then and now. From why she never planned to have kids (until she did) to the social pressures, mental load, and overwhelming expectations of modern moms, we compare notes across generations.

She shares why she wouldn’t have kids if she were 29 today, how parenting has changed (for better and worse), and what today’s moms need to hear. Plus, plenty of laughs, childhood stories, and a little unsolicited grandma wisdom.

Tune in for a deep dive into the past, present, and future of motherhood!
