    The Mental Load No One Talks About & A Bare Minimum Summer

    Thursday May 14th, 2026: There’s a part of the mental load that no one really talks about… your own thoughts. The constant questioning. The nonstop noise. The invisible checklist running through your brain 24/7. In today’s solo episode, I talk about a bit of an epiphany I had recently: why am I working so much? Somewhere along the way, I slipped into full workaholic mode and started prioritizing productivity over the things I’m constantly stressed about “neglecting”, home cooked meals, organizing the house, quality time with family, maintaining friendships, slowing down, and actually enjoying my life. So this summer? I’m embracing a bare minimum summer. Doing what truly needs to get done and letting the rest go. Because I only get one summer where Milo is 7 years old, and honestly? This might be my favourite age yet. The BEST. I don’t want to miss it because I was too busy answering emails or chasing productivity for no reason. I also get into the exhausting mental gymnastics of motherhood and womanhood… the constant second guessing, guilt, overthinking, and pressure to optimize everything. Why does my brain work like this? Why does it feel like moms carry around so much unnecessary noise in our heads? And why do I know for a fact my husband is not spiraling over whether we’ve done enough reading practice this week? If your brain also feels like 47 tabs are open at all times, this episode is for you. Enjoy!

    Imitation NyQuil, Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage, and Joy

    May 7th 2026: Ever taken an imitation NyQuil thinking “how different could it really be?” Well… apparently VERY different. In today’s solo episode of The Mom Room, I recap the recent cold that absolutely took me out and the off-brand nighttime cold medicine that somehow managed to derail my entire night instead of helping me sleep. Turns out the non-medicinal ingredients matter more than I ever knew, and I have thoughts. I also share my honest review of Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden. This review may ruffle a few feathers, but if you know me, you know I can’t fake enthusiasm for a book that didn’t land for me. Let’s discuss. Plus, I answer a few listener questions, including: what’s one small thing lately that has brought you an unexpected amount of joy? A simple question with surprisingly wholesome answers. A chaotic cold, questionable pharmaceuticals, controversial book opinions, and tiny joyful moments, a pretty accurate representation of life lately. Enjoy!

    Dr. Jennifer Lincoln on What to Consider For Your Birth Plan

    This week, Dr. Jennifer Lincoln joins The Mom Room to discuss various topics from her new book The Birth Book. What is considered normal when giving birth? How do I make a birth plan? What is the difference between a midwife and OBGYN? Do I need to deliver while laying on my back if I have an epidural? There have been countless books written all about pregnancy, but there hasn't been one that talks all about labor and delivery from someone who actually does it for a living. Giving birth is an extremely heightened anxiety scenario where everything can feel overwhelming and out of control, but Dr. Lincoln wants to empower women to have autonomy over their body, stand firm in their choices, but also consider options just in case the initial plan gets redirected. If you're pregnant, about to deliver, or planning for the future, this episode will give you the awareness and preparedness you need so that you can stand up for yourself and your needs in the delivery room.

    The Mouldy Fruit Drawer That Broke Me (My Tuesday Morning Meltdown)

    April 30th 2026: It started with mould in the fruit drawer… and somehow turned into a full emotional unraveling. 🫠 In this solo episode, I’m walking you through the Tuesday meltdown that had nothing to do with fruit and everything to do with the mental load, the build-up, and all the little things we keep pushing down until… we can’t anymore. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “fine” one minute and spiraling the next over something seemingly small, this one’s for you. I’m sorting through what actually triggered it, what’s been weighing on me behind the scenes, and why these moments might be more necessary than we think. Raw, honest, slightly unhinged, but hopefully makes you feel a little less alone in your own “fruit drawer” moments.

    Jessie Inchauspé aka Glucose Goddess on How Your Pregnancy Diet Shapes Your Baby's Future

    This week on The Mom Room, Renee is joined by Jessie Inchauspé, aka the Glucose Goddess. Jessie's scientific background has helped her reach a massive audience where she shares through her own personal health journey (mental and physical) how to make informed choices when it comes to nutrition. Jessie explains how her new book, 9 Months That Count Forever, came to be and what she uncovered about the female body by digging into the science. Renee and Jessie discuss how disempowering the classic lines of "avoid cold cuts" and "don't eat sushi" are, and how there's actually so many cool things that pregnant women can add to their nutrition to feel empowered knowing that they are doing what's most optimal for their baby's growth, in utero and in life. Knowledge is power and if you are looking for more information on how to go about nutrition while pregnant, this episode is for you! And if you're wanting more - check out Jessie's book linked below!
