    Managing Motherhood and Mono Polyamory Feat. Abby De La Rosa

    Happy Hump Day! This week on Good Moms Bad Choices, Erica and Milah are joined by radio personality, DJ, mama of three, and certified Scorpio, Abby De La Rosa. Before the world knew her as part of a headline, Abby was grinding in radio for nearly a decade street teams, voice work, overnight shifts, Starbucks side hustles, and building her name from the ground up. She opens up about carving out her identity in an industry that told her she didn’t “have the face for radio,” choosing her voice anyway. The three also chat about navigating a very public relationship dynamic, what people misunderstand, and what it feels like to step into a new season in life. You can expect to hear conversations about: Cutting your hair and reclaiming your power The grind of radio life and building a career before podcasts were a thing Getting pregnant after being told you couldn’t have kids Back-to-back babies, twins, and adjusting to motherhood in the spotlight Growing up deeply religious and redefining partnership on your own terms Imposter syndrome, identity loss, and rebuilding confidence after pouring into everyone but yourself Preteen daughters, Philly parenting moments, and when gentle parenting goes out the window Why women need space to be wild, sensual, and taken care of Watch This episode & more on YouTube!  Catch up with us over at Patreon and get all our Full visual episodes, bonus content & early episode releases.

    5 Dating Tips for Single Parents

    Happy Hump Day, Tribe. This week, Good Moms talk about what dating actually looks like when you’re a parent (the boundaries, the red flags, the late-night texts). The balance between protecting your peace and still wanting to feel something. Erica and Milah share five dating tips for single parents, not from a rule book, but from lived experience. If you’re outside, cautiously outside, or just thinking about stepping back in… this one’s for you.

    Spiritual STD's and Jumping Timelines

    Can a toxic ex leave you physically itchy? In this episode of Good Moms talk about energy transfer, "spiritually transmitted demons", and what it takes to reinvent yourself when the old version of you no longer fits. From de-centering men (and why that conversation is misunderstood) to centering yourself in a way that finally feels grounding, the girls unpack how survival identities can overstay their welcome. The girls talk honestly about watching close friends finally leave relationships that no longer serve them, how one big decision can completely change your timeline, and why telling your friends the truth (even when it’s uncomfortable) can be an act of love.Erica shares a vulnerable mushroom realization that made her understand why an old, hyper-guarded version of herself needed to be laid to rest, not erased, not shamed, but honored and released. Growth is messy, honesty matters, and sometimes the bravest thing you can do is let go of what once kept you safe. -------------------- Watch This episode & more on YouTube!  Connect With Us: @GoodMoms_BadChoices @TheGoodVibeRetreat @Good.GoodMedia @WatchErica @Milah_Mapp ------------------------------------------ 🇯🇲 JAMAICA 🇯🇲 (Sold Out) April 17th- April 22nd - Jamaica, Ganja Goddess Retreat Whether you're seeking relaxation, adventure, or simply a sexy fun time, the Ganja Goddess Retreat promises an unforgettable experience of empowerment and sisterhood.
