This week, we’re talking about Mother’s Day expectations vs. reality.

In the early years of motherhood, I had high hopes and got… syrup in my hair. But this year? I cleaned a toilet—and still had the best Mother’s Day yet.

Tune in as I reflect on how my perspective has changed over the years, how the phase of motherhood makes a difference, and why it’s totally okay if the day doesn’t feel magical.

Whether you spent the day in gratitude, in chaos, or somewhere in between—this one’s for you.

You’ve heard the saying: it takes a village to raise a child. But what happens when the village feels missing—or never showed up at all? In this episode, I’m exploring the history of the ‘village,’ and how motherhood has changed across generations.

I’m also sharing how we can start rebuilding support, one small step at a time—and how I’m participating in Walk a Mile in May to raise awareness for maternal mental health.

Whether your village looks like a group chat, a daycare drop-off crew, or a best friend who always texts back, this episode is a love letter to the power of moms supporting moms. You’re not walking alone.

Parenting is supposed to be a team effort, right? So why does it sometimes feel like the weight isn’t evenly distributed? In this episode of Thoughts from My Rage Walk, we’re talking about The Balancing Act—that tricky, guilt-ridden, sometimes infuriating feeling when parenting feels… uneven.

Lately, I’ve been noticing that my husband puts a lot of intentional time and energy into his 14-year-old, while our 4-year-old twins get the overstimulated, “just trying to survive the chaos” version of us. Is it just me, or do dads seem to shine in one-on-one, big-kid mode, while moms are left drowning in toddler insanity? We’ll talk about how this dynamic plays out, why it’s so frustrating, and whether I’m being petty or just pointing out the obvious.

If you’ve ever felt like the default parent or wondered how to make things feel a little more fair, this one’s for you. Let’s vent, let’s laugh, and let’s figure out how to not resent our partners (too much).

🎧 Tune in for some real talk, some questionable solutions, and—at the very least—the comfort of knowing you’re not the only one feeling this way.

This week’s episode is brought to you by: congestion, exhaustion, and the desperate need for a nap. I’m clawing my way back from a head cold that didn’t knock me out entirely—but definitely made everything feel harder. And as a mom? Sick days don’t come with PTO. I talk about the emotional whiplash of trying to rest while the to-do list multiplies, the chaos that waits for you when you're “better,” and the unique hell of trying to get back in shape when your hormones and head colds are both working against you.

Also—can we talk about the man-cold? Because the minute I say I’m sick, my husband’s symptoms magically appear…and they’re always worse. 🙄

If you’ve ever tried to sneak a face mask in between sneezes and snack duty, this one’s for you.

This week, we lace up and hit the emotional pavement—because I’m talking all about Mario, my runner husband. Yep, the man who started running after I did, got weirdly competitive, and now clocks in more hours than a part-time job… on his feet.

I share the hilarious story of how it all began, the chaos he jogs away from (witching hour, dinner meltdowns, needy pets), and how, even though I lovingly roast his stretching routine, I’m also super proud of him.

We also get into the mental load divide—because a mom’s brain and a runner’s brain? Not the same sport. Different leagues entirely.

Join me for laughs, lightbulb moments, and maybe a tiny bit of appreciation for foam rollers. 🧘‍♂️👟

Making friends as an adult is already awkward enough — but add in the residual trauma of growing up in the golden age of MLM culture? Yikes.

In this episode, I’m talking about the weird pressure millennial moms feel when it comes to making friends, starting a business, or selling anything without accidentally triggering someone’s MLM PTSD.

We’ll laugh (probably at my terrible Lipsense phase), we’ll cringe (shoutout to that Arbonne lady who called me for 5 years), and we’ll talk about how to show up for your friends doing cool things… without the weird “hey girl” vibes.

If you’ve ever gotten trapped at a coffee date sales pitch or still flinch when you get a DM from someone you went to high school with… this one’s for you.

Let’s talk about money—specifically, the guilt that comes with NOT bringing any in as a stay-at-home mom.

Why does not having 'my own money' make me feel like I’m not contributing, even though I’m literally working nonstop?

In this episode, I dive into the emotional weight of financial dependence, the pressure to start a side hustle (even when I was already running on fumes), and why we need to stop tying our worth to a paycheck.

If you’ve ever justified a $6 coffee purchase like it was a major financial decision, this one’s for you. Let’s break the guilt cycle together!

Family vacations—what a joy, right? Except in the early years, they’re more like survival missions where Mom does everything, and the only thing relaxing is the drive home (when the kids finally pass out). In this episode, I’m joined by my sister as we reminisce about the chaos of family vacations—from packing nightmares to the exhaustion of “vacationing” with little ones.

We talk about how it eventually does get better (seriously, there’s hope!), laugh about my disastrous spring break trip to the mountains (spoiler: I fell down an entire mountain), and swap stories about past trips that were equally challenging and hilarious.

So grab a drink, put your feet up (since you never get to on vacation), and join us for some laughs, some venting, and a little reminder that one day, family trips will actually feel like vacations.

Motherhood is often painted as a magical, sing-songy adventure—think Enchanted, where princesses befriend pigeons and make dresses out of curtains. But let’s be real… sometimes, it feels a lot more like Nightbitch—where the exhaustion, the loss of identity, and the sheer chaos turn you into something a little more primal.

In this episode, we’re diving into the stark contrast between these two films—how Amy Adams plays an Enchanted  princess, showing us the polished, fairy-tale version of her character, while her role in Nightbitch taps into the raw, unhinged reality Motherhood. We’re talking about the rage, the absurdity, and why so many of us feel like we’re morphing into something wild just to survive.

If you've ever looked at your messy house, your unbrushed hair, and your feral children and thought, Yep, I’m one full moon away from transformation—this one’s for you. 

 Tune in and let’s embrace the chaos together.

Welcome back

to Thoughts from My Rage Walk! Today, we’re diving into the exhausting, hilarious, and sometimes mind-numbing reality of managing a household while your partner blissfully ignores the chaos. From the never-ending invisible checklist to the sheer audacity of filling a water bottle at the worst possible moment, we’re unpacking the mental load of motherhood, the selective hearing of husbands, and why I might just start pre-filling that damn bottle out of spite.

If you’ve ever found yourself rage-walking over your partner’s ability to “just not see” what needs to be done—this one’s for you. Let’s vent, laugh, and remind each other: we are not alone in this madness.

Tune in, and let’s rage together!
