    Baby Showers, Bridal Showers & the Reality of Raising Kids on Camera

    This week, Melissa, Jill, and Kelly are catching up on life’s biggest moments—both joyful and challenging. From prepping for Brooke’s bridal shower to getting ready for Riley’s baby shower, the moms share what it’s like celebrating major milestones while juggling everyday responsibilities. Kelly opens up about not feeling her best, and the conversation turns to making healthier choices in the new year, including how they approach nutrition and using supplements to help fill in the gaps when life gets busy. The moms also reflect on their time on Dance Moms and the real struggles of being on the road—how exhausting it was for both them and their kids, and how that lifestyle affected family dynamics. They dive into one of the hardest topics: discipline under pressure. What was it really like trying to parent and correct behavior while cameras were rolling and other kids were watching? They talk about the balancing act of discipline and empathy, especially when a child lashed out or showed attitude because of stress, exhaustion, or what they were going through emotionally.  Join us on Patreon for video, exclusive content, live chats and more! https://www.patreon.com/deardancemom Have a question for the moms?

    Still Moms, Even When They’re Grown

    In this episode, Jill, Kelly, and Melissa ease into the new year together as they officially say goodbye to Christmas and reflect on what this season of life looks like now. They talk about the pressure of social media, “if you don’t post it, did it even happen?” mentality, and why sometimes living in the moment matters more than sharing it. Even though their kids are grown, the moms laugh about how they’re still very much needed—proved in real time when each of them gets FaceTime calls from their kids during the podcast. Melissa opens up about still struggling with the trauma of losing her dog, the complicated feelings of anger and grief that come with it.... all while debating whether she’s ready to welcome another dog into her life. The conversation also turns reflective as the moms discuss confidence—whether they ever struggled with it themselves, and how it showed up for the girls on Dance Moms.  Join us for video, exclusive content, live chats and more! https://www.patreon.com/c/deardancemom Have a question for the moms?

They share their love for seeing The Nutcracker and why New York City at Christmas will always have their hearts. Then, the conversation turns to Dance Moms behind-the-scenes truths—who really came up with the routines, how much input producers had, and how many dances were reused from before the show even began.

    The Season of Showing Up: For Our Kids and Ourselves

    In this week’s episode, Melissa, Jill, and Kelly settle in for a cozy (and sometimes emotional) holiday chat. The moms dive into the chaos of preparing for Christmas and wanting to be wherever their kids are.  Melissa opens up about the lingering PTSD she’s been facing after the traumatic loss of her dog, sharing how grief can unexpectedly shape this season. Kelly admits the shift into winter has her feeling extra tired and sluggish—because when it gets dark at 4:30, who isn’t ready for bed? And Jill, of course, tries to keep everyone on track while still navigating her own holiday to-dos and trying to avoid getting sick.  The trio also tackles one of the season’s trickiest questions: What on earth do you gift the everyday heroes in your life—your mail carrier, hairstylist, nail tech, teachers, and everyone in between?  Warm, honest, and sprinkled with holiday sparkle, this episode is all about showing up—for the people you love, and for yourself—during the busiest time of year.
