Hey listeners and welcome to the Yes Woman’s support group. It’s where we go to commiserate and try not to lose our da*n minds when it feels like we’re planning and handling EVERYTHING for our families. **record scratch** Wait a minute - is this really the best way for us to live our lives? By packing our schedules, saying yes to everything, and trying to keep up the (impossible) image of being Super Mom?! NO. When it comes to bei...

We live in a time where there is just a lot of things… and we’re not market experts or anything, but we don’t see it getting any better. Enter: Katy Wells. Katy Wells is a Declutter Expert a...

Let’s talk about the p-word today, shall we?  That’s right people, we’re talking about PERFECTIONISM and the crushing pressure that comes along with it. If you’ve ever struggled with your self confidence, felt like whatever you do isn’t good enough, or make decisions based on what others will think about you - you might be living as a perfectionist. Living like this is not only a fast track to chronic unhappiness, it’s a burden yo...

Parents of teenagers - this episode is for YOU!! It’s time to be honest - fill in the blank: “I wish my teen would just _______________”.

Being the parent of a teenager can be a baffling, confusing, and unchartered experience; so many teens seem unmotivated! But why? Well, that question is more than a little ...

In case you didn’t know, the “one size fits all” approach to life is BS. Here’s what we mean: being productive, living minimally, embracing motherhood, and everything else we’re trying to do 24/7/365 looks different for everyone! Today, our podcast guest is talking all about finding ways to be successful in your life - ESPECIALLY at the start of the day - in a way that works for YOU. Desirae Endres is the host of the top-ranked po...

The 90s were sick… like literally, sick. Here’s what we mean: the popular body type of the day was being Kate Moss skinny. If you missed the 90s or just weren’t old enough to remember Kate splashed across all the magazines, trust us, it was an unattainable look.  While it’s easy to fall into feeling like we’ve come a long way since those days we want to face the truth: that the way women’s bodies are treated, the messages we recei...

Remember the end of the movie Freaky Friday when Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan both have a better understanding of each other because they have literally walked in each other’s shoes? Or how about the movie Brave when Merida’s Mom finally GETS her daughter because she’s been able to parent differently? Shifting parent-child relationships are all around us.  Today, we’re giving you all the ingredients to embrace the chaotic li...

I. D. K. The three most dreaded letters in the alphabet for Moms everywhere. There’s nothing more conversation halting than the “I don’t know” response when you ask your kids what they learned, how their day was, what they want to eat… anything. We’re not sure if it’s some kind of kid code or what, but we know it’s definitely not helping us have open and honest conversations that give us insight into their lives and potential stru...

Here’s why we love the 40 hour work week: Everything you do while you’re on (or off) the clock for work is financially rewarded… right? Laughing. Out. Loud!! No matter if you’re currently working full time or the last ”official” job you held was in high school (SAHMs we see you!!) we know that the effort you put forth at work each day is not always rewarded financially or at all (again, SAHMs, we see you!). If that’s the reality o...

If we’ve said it once we’ve said it a thousand times, being a Mom is like living life in a pressure cooker. Okay, we’ve never actually said that but we’re saying it today, and we mean it! Being a Mom comes with a lot of joy and happiness… and stress and worry and self-doubt and pressure and… the list goes on and on. If you feel like you’re in a funk lately (or ever) - like you just can't do anything right or enjoy things that norm...

What’s YOUR number one priority? If you’ve listed off your top five and you still haven’t mentioned yourself… welcome to motherhood.  We get it - with the constantly revolving door of activities, social engagements, food making, errand running, and just existing, it is EASY to prioritize everyone and everyTHING else before yourself. And we’re here today, with the help of our incredible guest Nithya Karia, to tell you to stop that!...

So you’ve been listening to our podcast for awhile now. It’s actually been so long that you’re afraid to ask… what the heck IS Mom guilt?! It’s that pit in your stomach you get when you’re headed for a weekend away with your girlfriends and feel like you need to meal prep for your entire family so they don’t starve to death while you’re gone (that’s not going to happen - fyi). Or the constant messaging from the world to be gratefu...

Oh that precious moment when you welcome your daughter into the world. It’s full of so many emotions: joy, love, and excitement about all the bows you can put in her hair (if that’s your thing). But then there’s the inevitable and uninvited comment from a family member or sometimes the random stranger in the grocery store: “What a sweet little bundle! But just WAIT until she’s a teenager!” Insert. Eyeroll. Here. We’re done default...

Unpopular opinion: Sometimes, the gifts we get on Mother’s Day are more work than they’re worth. Mother’s Day is right around the corner. That’s right people - gear up for breakfast in bed and the crumbs/spilled orange juice you’ll probably have to clean up for yourself after you eat it. Sometimes the gifts we get are well intentioned but… miss the mark. A massage is ah-mazing, but who is going to watch the kids or pick them up fr...

Let’s hear it for apple sauce pouches and a side of… guilt? We’re sure we don’t have to tell you that social media is PACKED with videos of Moms making some seriously deluxe meals for their kids from scratch, on the daily. Don’t even get us started on the Bentgo lunch box videos. While impressive, these videos can create a LOT of stress, worry, and guilt for those of us who don’t find joy in making meals or just enjoy handing our ...

Picture this: You go to the gym in your free time (LOL) and see a very athletic human maxing out because it’s #LegDay. They’ve got a CRAZY amount of weight on their squat bar and yet they ask for more because, well, they think they can handle it. Now, imagine if all of that weight was to do lists, errands to run, events to get to, things to sign up for, after school activities, and more. That, my friends, is the mental load of moth...
