Send us Fan Mail

In this episode, Alex and Amanda sit down with Dale and Annabel, the duo behind We Are More Than Moms, to talk about why the postpartum identity shift is so disorienting, how they built a thriving community for career-driven women who refuse to shrink themselves after having kids, and why the early parenting years are such a genuine test of a relationship. Dale also shares what it was like growing up as a child of divorce — including years in a nesting arrangement — and how that experience made her more intentional about her own marriage. Annabel gets into navigating the holidays with multiple sets of divorced parents, and both share why authenticity online matters more than ever in a space full of curated perfection.
