    Do you need it really? Baby prep made easy

    In this episode we’re tackling the big question: Do you really need all that stuff for your baby? We're stripping it down to five essentials, no clutter, just what really helps. As a working mom, we’ve found that minimalism can be a sanity-saver. We’ll laugh at the ridiculous “must-haves” and focus on what truly supports us. Whether you’re expecting or deep in the juggle, we’ll lighten your load, and maybe your diaper bag too.

    Definitely my mom type on paper

    Crunchy, scrunchy, dragon, helicopter… apparently, motherhood has more “types” than a dating app. In this episode, we break down the big ones, what they mean, and why most of us are a chaotic mix depending on sleep, snacks, and sanity levels. It’s fun, light, and a reminder that there’s no perfect category...just the kind of mom you are today.

    Got Milk? Surviving the first feeds

    Breastfeeding is often painted as natural and effortless, but the beginning of the journey is usually a whole lot more complicated, and honestly, a little painful. In this week’s episode, we’re talking about what those early days really look like: the bonding and the breakdowns, the magic and the mess. From figuring out latch and navigating leaky shirts to powering through late-night feeds, it’s all part of stepping into this new season of motherhood. So grab the cookies, and let’s get into it.

    Love on the Rocks; Marriage Friction Points

    Parenthood has a funny way of turning the tiniest things like pebble ice into major “discussions.” In this episode of 9 to Thrive, we’re chatting about the little friction points that sneak into marriage, the bigger ones that come with parenting and mental health, and why sometimes you just have to laugh through it all.

    Telling Work You’re Pregnant (without losing yourself)

    Telling your job you're pregnant can be one of the most nerve-wracking parts of early motherhood, especially when you're still figuring it out yourself. In this episode, we talk about when to share the news, how to say it, and why this is the first of many moments where you'll need to speak up and advocate for yourself. We also cover handling first-trimester exhaustion, dealing with unsupportive reactions, and why other moms at work might be your best resource...even more than HR. Whether you're ready to shout it from the rooftops or keeping things quiet a bit longer, this one’s for you.
