    071 - Snowed In, Tuning Out, Showing Up

    There’s a massive snowstorm outside, a lot of fear in the air, and inside our homes, parents are doing what they always do - getting through the day however they can. In this episode, we’re recording from real life as it’s happening. Maya is two weeks postpartum, we’re snowed in with toddlers, and the news cycle feels heavy and relentless. We talk honestly about what it’s like to be parenting in this moment - when your nervous system is shot, your phone won’t stop delivering bad news, and you’re still expected to show up for your kids with patience and hope. You’ll also hear a very special (and very sweet) guest throughout the conversation: Maya’s newborn son, whose tiny baby noises make a few perfectly timed appearances, because this is what doing it all actually sounds like. We move between the personal and the political, touching on postpartum recovery, cabin fever, screen guilt, and the emotional toll of raising children amid political fear, ICE rumors, and growing uncertainty, especially for immigrant families. We talk about how much invisible labor parents carry, and why being told to “just be resilient” often misses the point. Listener letters guide much of the conversation, including questions about surviving snow days with toddlers and screens, navigating fear in mixed-status families, and managing postpartum anxiety and existential dread in a world that feels increasingly unstable. This episode is honest, chaotic, validating, and rooted in solidarity over solutions. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, scared, tired, or unsure how to hold it all at once, you’re not alone.

    070 - (Re-Release) Eve Rodsky WAS Doing It All! Rebalancing the invisible load and reclaiming your time

    If you’re new here (or you missed this one the first time) this is the episode to press play on. We’re rereleasing our conversation with Eve Rodsky, creator and NYT bestselling author of Fair Play, and honestly, the timing couldn’t be more perfect. Maya’s son is officially here 💙, and this season has been all about setting boundaries, having real conversations, and redistributing the work load-exactly what this episode is about. We originally kicked off Women’s History Month with this conversation because it speaks to the unseen, unpaid, and often unfair labor women carry every single day. Eve breaks down how Fair Play became a movement, starting with a text from her husband, a conversation with Elizabeth Warren back when she was her Harvard professor, and the career path she thought she’d be on before changing everything. We talk about why excusing partners with “but he’s a good guy” keeps us stuck, why her and her husband’s In-N-Out check-ins double as strategy meetings (genius, honestly), and what Eve calls the last frontier of feminism-and it might not be what you expect. She also shares the three things every household needs to actually function… because most of us are running on vibes and vibes only. This episode is packed with perspective, laughs, and tools you can use immediately-especially if you’re navigating a new life chapter, redefining roles, or realizing that “doing it all” shouldn’t mean doing it alone.
