    Things I Feel Insecure About… and Maybe You Do Too

    In this episode, I’m getting honest about something we all experience but rarely talk about openly: insecurities. I share some of my own personal insecurities and then read through a list of incredibly relatable ones that so many people carry quietly. From comparison and self-doubt to the small thoughts that creep in throughout the day, this conversation is all about normalizing the human experience and reminding ourselves that we’re not alone in these feelings. . .

    Let's Talk String Cheese

    Today we’re briefly dissecting the viral “String Cheese Song” and what it teaches us about emotional overwhelm, mental health, and modern motherhood. This episode explores how humor, stress, and vulnerability intersect — and why so many people resonated with this simple yet powerful moment. A real and relatable conversation about feelings we don’t always know how to name.

    Friendship & Motherhood w/ my BESTIE!!

    In this episode, I sit down with my best friend for a candid conversation about our friendship—how we met, how it’s evolved through different seasons of life, and what it really takes to maintain a deep connection as adults, moms, and women navigating change. We talk about growing together, growing apart and back again, showing up during hard seasons, and the lessons friendship has taught us about commitment and grace. This episode is a reminder that meaningful friendships don’t have to be perfect to be powerful.💛 Follow me on Instagram: @milkstainedandmentallydrained @whereflowersbloomcounseling . .

    Therapist/Mom Pet Peeves No One Asked For

    No one asked… but Marie’s saying it anyway. In this solo episode, Marie shares her therapist and mom pet peeves—the things that quietly (and sometimes loudly) rub her the wrong way. From unhelpul therapy speak to well-meaning comments that completely miss the mark, this episode is honest, relatable, and just the right amount of rant-y. Marie breaks down why these pet peeves matter more than people realize, how they impact mental health and motherhood, and what she wishes people understood instead. It’s part vent, part validation, and part reminder that you’re not wrong for feeling irritated by the same things. If you’re a therapist, a mom, or anyone navigating life—this episode is for you. . . . . . Follow me on Instagram: @milkstainedandmentallydrained @whereflowersbloomcounseling . .

    Still milk-stained. Still trying.

    The New Year keeps telling us to become someone new. But I don't want a new version of myself- I want permission to restart without shame. If you've already dropped the ball on your goals, lost your patience, or feel behind.. you're not failing. You're living a real life. This year doesn't need a perfect mom, it needs a real one. . . . . . This talked about in this episode: Want to share your story? Email me!
