Two Moms, Too Much Coffee

Raise your hand if you've heard "getting your body back" one too many times. In this episode, Tempestt and Jhshell get real about what that phrase actually means to them now and spoiler: it has nothing to do with fitting into pre-baby jeans.

 From Jhshell discovering she has diastasis recti (ab separation) and finding her groove with early-morningPilates, to Tempestt canceling her gym membership, getting a SoulCycle bike, and accidentally losing 5 pounds by going vegetarian for a month this is the honest, messy, 18-months-in version of the story.

 Plus the conversation that hit different: how the way we talk about our bodies in front of our daughters is making both of them rethink everything including what they say to themselves in the mirror.

Your monthly pop culture fix is here and we had a LOT to say.

We're starting with the Euphoria Season 3 finale (spoiler warning at the top we give you a heads up before we get into it). Rue's story ending the way it did hit different, especially knowing about Angus Cloud's real-life passing. Then we get into Olivia Rodrigo getting dragged for wearing a baby doll dress and her quote about how we normalize pedophilia by blaming girls for what they wear. Then Kerry Washington and Tony Goldwyn showed back up together on Actors on Actors and we absolutely could not hold it together.

We also ended up in a real conversation about raising daughters on pop culture whether we're doing them a disservice, at what age kids should be watching Love Island (spoiler: not yet), and why we'll be pushing Disney Plus hard for a while.

We're joined by our friend Monique — a women's health pelvic floor physical therapist — for one of the most real conversations we've had on this show.Monique walks us through her full IVF journey: being diagnosed with PCOS and fertility issues just months after going off birth control, skipping straight to IVF when doctors told her natural conception wasn't an option, navigating 100+ injections, the $20,000 sticker shock (and how insurance changed everything at the last minute), and what nobody on TV ever shows you about the process.She also opens up about the emotional side — why she took the news more calmly than most, what made her want to quit mid-injection, and how becoming a mom changed everything she thought she knew about herself.If you're on an IVF journey, thinking about it, or just want to understand what someone you love might be going through — this one's for you.Monique's practice: derizziopt.com (mobile in-home visits, DFW area — pelvic floor, postpartum, prenatal, fertility support, and more)Follow us: @twomomstooomuchcoffeeTwo Moms Too Much Coffee — real talk, no filter, always overcaffeinated.

You're Googling toddler activities before the whining even starts. Sound familiar?This week we're asking the question every mom thinks but doesn't say out loud — are we doing too much for our kids? Or are we doing exactly what we have to because the world doesn't make it easy?Tempestt and Jhshell get honest about boredom, redshirting boys, raising mixed Black and Colombian kids with full identities, and the stuff we do for our kids that's really just for ourselves.What we get into:→ Why letting your kid be bored might be the best thing you do this week→ Redshirting boys — is it helicopter parenting or just smart?→ Raising mixed kids and doing "extra" on purpose→ The real reason we jump in before they even ask for help→ Are we doing this for them — or for us?Two moms, two mixed families, one honest conversation. No perfect answers.New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one — and drop a comment telling us something you do for your kid that you know they could do themselves.

Motherhood has a funny way of making you care deeply about things you never thought twice about. In this episode, we talk sleep schedules, car seats, sippy cups, babysitters, routines, toddler clothes, and the very specific parenting opinions we accidentally developed after becoming moms.

Are crunchy moms onto something… or are we all just trying to survive parenting in America?

In this episode of Two Moms Too Much Coffee, we talk about the “crunchy mom” stereotype and realize we might be a little more crunchy than we thought. From homemade oat flour and almond milk to low screen time, ingredient labels, birthday cupcakes, baby wearing, and the mental load of trying to make healthier choices for kids, this conversation gets very real very fast.

We also talk about:

- Why “natural parenting” has become so popular

- The pressure moms feel around food and parenting choices

- Added sugar and toddler snacks

- Screen time and modern parenting

- Homemade snacks vs processed foods

- Cloth diapers, homeschooling, and “unschooling”

- Parenting in America and why so many moms feel forced into researching everything

- The difference between being “a little crunchy” and full granola

And yes, Tempestt admits she basically survived on Purple Skittles and Mountain Dew in high school.

If you’ve ever read ingredient labels in the grocery store for 20 minutes, transferred berries into glass containers, or said “my kid doesn’t need cake,” this episode is for you.

Happy Mother’s Day from Two Moms Too Much Coffee.

In this episode, Tempestt and Jhshell talk about the real things they wish someone had told them before becoming moms. From constant mom guilt and postpartum anxiety to friendship changes, body image, grief, therapy, medication, and the pressure to have another baby before you’re ready, this conversation gets honest fast.

They also talk about what changes when you become a mom of two, why motherhood can shift your friendships, and how learning to give yourself grace may be one of the biggest lessons of parenting.

This episode is for every mom who loves her kids deeply but still feels tired, guilty, stretched thin, or changed by motherhood.

Topics include:
Mom guilt, Mother’s Day, first year of motherhood, becoming a mom of two, postpartum anxiety, friendship changes after kids, body image, parenting while grieving, therapy, medication, and giving yourself grace.

Pop culture is doing the most right now and we had to talk about it.

This week on Two Moms Too Much Coffee, we’re breaking down the latest reality TV chaos, including the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives expansion that has everyone confused. Are they even Mormon anymore? And of course, we revisit the Taylor Frankie Paul situation and what it means for MomTok moving forward.

We also shift into something a little lighter with our millennial hearts thriving over Hilary Duff and Demi Lovato being back on tour. There’s something about seeing these women step into this era as moms that just hits different.

Plus, we get into the unexpected celebrity family crossover with Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence officially becoming in-laws and grandparents. It feels like a cultural moment we didn’t know we needed.

If you love reality TV, pop culture updates, and hearing moms talk about it the way you would in the group chat, this episode is for you.

Make sure to follow, rate, and share with your favorite pop culture mom.

If you’ve ever looked put together in public but felt completely overwhelmed five minutes before, this episode is for you.

Today we’re talking about the gap between social media motherhood and real life. From chaotic mornings that somehow turn into picture-perfect brunch photos, to toddler meltdowns, feeding struggles, and the pressure to be a “perfect mom.”

We get into:

• Why social media makes motherhood look easier than it is
• The truth about gentle parenting vs real-life reactions
• Mom guilt around daycare, working, and needing alone time
• Honest “mom fails” including feeding struggles, diaper bag disasters, and survival mode parenting
• Why not loving every phase of motherhood is completely normal

This is one of those episodes where we say the quiet parts out loud. If you’ve ever felt like everyone else has it together except you, you’re not alone.

Listen, laugh, and feel seen.

This week on Two Moms Too Much Coffee, we’re keeping it real with a brand new unfiltered series where we just talk. No script, no structure, just real mom life as it happens.

We get into one of those weeks where everything goes wrong. From a daycare injury and urgent care visit to the flu hitting right before a kid-free vacation, this episode is the definition of “when it rains, it pours.”

We also talk about:

• Toddler sleep regression and night wakings

• The anxiety of kids getting sick before big plans

• How motherhood changes your ability to actually relax away from your kids

• The moment you realize your child will be fine without you (and you lean into it)

• Random life updates, including gardening and making mom friends as an adult

If you’ve ever had a week where nothing goes as planned, this one will hit.
