Why You’ll Love It: This episode is equal parts hilarious, emotional, and eye-opening — whether you’re raising twins, are a twin yourself, or just love people-watching at big family-style events.

    #91 The Momference Minis: Marissa Nelson on Sex After Kids and Keeping Play Alive

    This spring, That Twin Mama took her mic to The Momference® — the premier, three-day gathering for Black and Brown millennial moms, powered by District Motherhued®. In a weekend built to nourish, uplift, and celebrate #BlackMomMagic, Lauren sat down with powerhouse moms, thought leaders, and healers to bring you these bite-sized, heart-full episodes straight from the DC mom squad that’s rewriting what community care looks like. In this mini episode, Lauren cozies up with the brilliant Marissa Nelson — award-winning sex therapist and founder of IntimacyMoons Couples Retreats — for a real talk about sex after the babies arrive. From scheduling sex (yes, we’re doing it!) to non-sexual touch, awkward butt grabs, and why “playing” isn’t just for kids, they break down how modern couples can keep closeness, pleasure, and that delicious sense of anticipation alive — even when the house is chaotic and you’re all touched out. In this episode you’ll hear: Why scheduling sex isn’t unsexy — it’s survivalHow couples lose the “play” and how to get it backThe power of non-sexual touch and staying close when you’re exhaustedMarissa’s wisdom on making pleasure a priority, not a perk 💛 Marissa Nelson — Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT), Certified Sex Therapist (CST), Certified Sexuality Educator (CSE), and the genius behind IntimacyMoons Couples Retreats (as seen in The New York Times, Women’s Health, Fodor's Travel and more!). Find her work and book your escape at intimacymoons.com and follow her on IG https://www.instagram.com/xomarissanelson/?hl=en  If this one made you feel a little seen (or a little spicy), share it with your best mom friend who needs the reminder that pleasure matters — and perfect isn’t the point. And don’t forget to leave your girl a 5-star review — it keeps this village growing.

    #90 The Momference Minis: Noémie Gaines on Harmony Over Balance, Soft Notes, & Finding Your Mom Tribe

    This spring, That Twin Mama took her mic to The Momference® — the premier, three-day gathering for Black and Brown millennial moms, powered by District Motherhued®. In a weekend built to nourish, uplift, and celebrate #BlackMomMagic, Lauren sat down with powerhouse moms, thought leaders, and healers to bring you these bite-sized, heart-full episodes straight from the DC mom squad that’s rewriting what community care looks like. In this mini episode, Lauren connects with longtime Momference attendee and digital storyteller Noémie Gaines — a former entertainment lawyer turned content creator and motherhood muse — for a conversation that gently challenges the myth of balance and embraces the freedom of harmony. Noémie shares how her family’s vlogging journey led to full-time work in the digital space, how she processes identity shifts in motherhood, and why she centers each day around how she wants to feel, not what she needs to do. They also talk about how The Momference helped Noémie build her DC village (even as a transplant!), what it’s like to show up authentically online, and how her “Soft Notes” series on YouTube and Substack models daily self-compassion in real time. In this episode you’ll hear: Why balance is a myth — and how Noémie uses harmony as a compassThe real talk behind identity shifts in motherhoodHow Momference became her chosen village (and Black mom Disney World!)Why daily rituals — like Soft Notes — are a form of nourishment too 💛 Noémie Gaines — wife, mama, content creator, and the voice behind Soft Notes on YouTube and Substack.
