    The System is Broken! Why American Motherhood Is So Hard (and How To Fix It) with Reshma Saujani

    This week, Sarah sits down with Reshma Saujani—New York Times bestselling author, founder of Girls Who Code, and the founder of Moms First! Inspired by Reshma's new documentary No Country for Mothers, this episode explores why motherhood in America can feel uniquely difficult. From the crushing cost of childcare and the lack of paid family leave to the impossible expectations placed on modern moms, Reshma makes the case that the challenges so many mothers blame themselves for are actually the result of a broken system—not personal failure. In this episode, we cover: Why motherhood in America feels so uniquely difficultHow the childcare crisis and lack of paid leave affect every familyThe "momcession" and why mothers are leaving the workforceHow culture wars distract us from real solutionsWhy motherhood is a public policy issue—not an individual failureWhat Moms First is doing to create change, and how you can get involvedThis is such an important discussion!

    The Mom’s Guide to Peptides: Energy, Brain Fog, Weight Loss & More with Carlyn Mungle

    Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably heard about Peptides by now. They're on our algorithm & in our group chat. Can they help us lose baby weight? Have more energy? Stay sane? Are they even safe to take? WE NEED TO KNOW! Enter Carlyn Mungle, founder of Feelin' Good Wellness, a personalized, physician-guided peptide provider, to give us all a little crash course on peptides. We talk about what peptides actually are, why they're suddenly everywhere, and which ones may be helpful for moms dealing with things like fatigue, brain fog, recovery, weight management, and more. We also get into the practical stuff: where to get peptides, where NOT to get peptides, potential risks, costs, and what you should know before considering a peptide journey. Disclaimer: Nothing discussed should be considered medical advice. Always talk to your own healthcare provider before starting any new medication, peptide, or treatment.
