This podcast is our unfiltered, unsolicited take on motherhood. While parenting is often sold as sunshine and rainbows, real life looks more like thunderstorms, emotional tsunamis, and the occasional hurricane, with a rainbow showing up sometimes. This is for moms who love their kids but also love honest, sarcastic, say-it-out-loud conversations about the chaos, pressure, and unrealistic expectations of motherhood. No perfection. No toxic positivity. The moms who are tired of the “do it all gracefully” narrative. Just real talk, real laughs, and moments that make you say, “Yep, that’s me.”

  1. Sleep Time Habits (No Nap Nation)

    Sleep Time Habits (No Nap Nation)

    In this episode, we get brutally honest about sleep… or honestly the complete lack of it. At this point, a full night’s rest feels more like a myth parents tell each other to survive. We’re talking about our own experiences navigating sleep with kids, the different ways we approached bedtime struggles, and the never-ending debate that is co-sleeping. From doing what works for your family to questioning every parenting decision at 2 a.m., we get real about the pressure, exhaustion, and survival mode that comes with motherhood. And of course, we couldn’t resist throwing in a little Love Is Blind parenting hot take because apparently reality TV parenting opinions are unavoidable. If you’re tired, overstimulated, and just trying to make it through bedtime with your sanity intact… this episode is for you.

    The Work Life Balance Myth

    Work-life balance? We discuss who came up with this lie? In Episode 3 of Chasing Sanity, we’re getting real about the pressure to do it all and somehow do it well. Between work, motherhood, relationships, and everything else on our plates, we’re talking about what balance is supposed to look like versus what it actually feels like day to day. We get into the idea of “having it all,” why balance looks different for everyone, and what it really takes to set boundaries without feeling guilty right after. Because somehow we’re expected to show up at work, be present at home, take care of everyone else, and still have something left for ourselves. So what does balance actually look like? And is it even real, or are we all just figuring it out as we go?

  3. Mom Life, But Make It Cultural

    Mom Life, But Make It Cultural

    In Episode 2 of Chasing Sanity, we’re unpacking cultural differences in a parenting, because not everybody was raised the same, and it shows up in everything, and we do mean EVERYTHING. We’re getting into what we were told to do (or absolutely not do) while pregnant, the unspoken rules during the newborn stage, and how different cultures approach rest, support, and who gets access to your child. We grew up with villages…real ones. Family showed up, stepped in, and had opinions, whether you asked or not. Now, boundaries are louder, support can feel quieter, and somehow expecting a little structure makes you seem like you’re doing too much. So we’re asking the real questions: what are we keeping, what are we side-eyeing, and what are we not negotiating on? Honest, funny, and a little triggering…the usual.

  4. Motherhood - Expectations Vs. Reality

    1 thg 4

    Motherhood - Expectations Vs. Reality

    In our very first episode, Aba and Mimi introduce themselves and the reason this unfiltered motherhood podcast had to exist. If you’ve been looking for a real mom podcast that actually tells the truth about parenting…congratulations, you found us. We’re breaking down the expectations we had before kids (organized mornings, glowing pregnancy, “I’ll never yell”) versus the reality no one puts on the baby registry. Think identity shifts, exhaustion, overstimulation… and loving your kids while occasionally hiding in the bathroom. This episode is for new moms, seasoned moms, and any woman who’s ever thought, “Why didn’t anyone tell me it would be like THIS?” No sugarcoating. No perfect-mom performance. Just honest, sarcastic, slightly unhinged conversations about real motherhood.
