    You're Not Behind: Comparison, Guilt & Postpartum Headlines

    Six months postpartum at the NYC Marathon. Six weeks postpartum on the runway. And you, scrolling at 11pm wondering what you're missing. Mami, you're not behind. This week two postpartum stories took over the internet: Allison Kuch stopping at mile 17 of the New York City Marathon to breastfeed her baby, and Barbara Palvin walkingthe Victoria's Secret runway six weeks after giving birth. This is not an episode about tearing anybody down, todo lo contrario. Good for them, de verdad. But their story doesn't have to take away from yours. Next time you catch yourself comparing, swap the question. Not "why am I not like her?" — but "what would actually help me right now, and who can I ask?" •    Follow along on Instagram: @momlifejuntas

    Mom Guilt, Chronic Illness, and Redefining the “Good Mom” with Ruth Wilson

    What happens when your body doesn’t cooperate, but your kids still need you? In this episode, I sit down with Ruth Wilson, a mom of two, lupus patient, researcher, and patient advocate, to talk about balancing your health with the demands of motherhood, the guilt that comes with not being able to do it all and learning to give yourself grace. Ruth shares her six-year road to a lupus diagnosis, the night in the ER that finally changed everything, and what it waslike to hold it together for her little ones while falling apart inside. We talk about speaking up in a culture that taught so many of us “calladita te ves más bonita,” why showing up is sometimes taking everything you have, and how her definition of a good mom has changed. Ruth also shares practical advice for advocating for yourself in the doctor’s office and a message for any mom who just got a diagnosis and feels like she’s failing. Whether you live with a chronic illness, love someone who does, or just need a reminder that motherhood is not a performance, this one is for you.

    Stop Hiding: What FFFCon Taught Me About Dreaming Bigger

    I just got back from FFFCon in Boston, and I'mstill processing it. In this solo episode, I'm sharing what happened when I walked into a room where nobody was competing and everybody was cheering each other on. I open up about the duality of being so grateful to be there while missing my daughter's first ballet class, what it cost my family for me to go, and why I believe it's been worth it. I also share why meeting people in real life matters in a world where we're more connected than ever and still so disconnected. If you've ever caught yourself dreaming small, hiding, or putting your goals on the back burner for "someday," this one is for you. In this episode: •       Why I almost let nerves talk me out of going •       The duality of chasing a dream while missingthe firsts at home •       What it feels like to be in a room of womenwho genuinely want to see you grow •       Why real-life connection still matters in theage of DMs •       My four takeaways: dream bigger, stop hiding,ask for opportunities, and support other women •       A challenge for you: what's the scary thing? Want to be a guest on Mom Life Juntas? If you're a mom and you have something to share, a story, a lesson, or a season you're walking through, I want to hear from you. DM me @momlifejuntas

    Not Recognizing My Body, Watching My Parents Age, and What I'm Trying to Break

    This one's personal. I'm not recognizing my body after having two kids... and I still believe everything I've said about your body being amazing for what it did to bring your kids into the world. Both things are true: gratitude, and room for improvement. In this episode: the energy that's more than "mom tired," why nutrition keeps sliding to the bottom of the list con el horario tan loco, and the moment I caught myself moving to the back for pictures instead of being in them. I'm also talking about watching my parents get older, their mobility, their energy and that immigrant hard-working mindset that never modeled rest. Not a criticism of them. Just a pattern I don't want to hand down without meaning to. No tengo todo resuelto. But I'm being intentional, moving my body because it feels good, catching up with amigas on walks instead of over food, and letting my kids see health as normal instead of earned. If you're in your own in-between version of this, watching your parents age, feeling different in your body, not able to keep up the way you used to, you're not alone. You're just noticing. 📲 Follow along @momlifejuntas

    First Day of Kindergarten: A Therapist Mom on Fear, Affirmations & Letting Go

    His hand squeezed mine at the kindergarten door. "I'm a little scared," he said. Here's what I told him and what I didn't. As a therapist and a mom of two, I don't always agree with myself. My mom heart wanted to fix his fear, turn around, go home. The therapist in me knew that wouldn't help him. In this episode: the affirmations we've been saying since preschool (te lo juro, the cutest thing you'll hear all week), why I don't love affirmations for adults but I'm all-in for kids, the alarm clock shock of going from private-practice flexibility back into a school routine, and the moment I realized my job as his mom is shifting.....not ending, shifting. I also talk about my village, the friends who checked in, sent first-day pictures, and one who doesn't even have kids but showed up anyway to take pictures and hold my hand through it. Not the Pinterest version of a village. The real one. If your kid is heading back to school scared, nervous, or some combination of excited and terrified: you're not alone, and it's not your job to take the fear away.
