Motherhood can get murky! You can feel alone, unsure, and in desperate need of some guidance. Jen from And Hattie Makes Three (mom to Hattie) and Audrey from Read It & Reap with Me (mom to Elise & Dax) team up to talk about the topics that nobody wants to talk about in a refreshing, candid, relatable way.
They don’t have it all figured out either, but as they always say, "let’s navigate these murky waters of motherhood together."

Looking for Silver Linings (20)
In our 20th episode, we talk about intentionally looking for the silver linings during a trying season. This mindset comes more naturally to one of us, while the other has to really work at it. We share how we’re looking for silver linings, and encourage you to do the same during this time of social distancing. Post about a silver lining in your Instagram story or feed and use the hashtag #covidsilverlinings!

I Ate My Feelings and They Were Delicious (16)
We've all eaten our feelings before, right? I know we're not the only ones. In this episode, we talk about our favorite trigger foods -- the ones we just can't stop eating once we start. We'll also talk about a couple things that may help you create some barriers so maybe next time you only eat one sleeve of Thin Mints instead of two. (We are not medical professionals by any stretch of the imagination.)

Customer Reviews
I feel like I’m listening to my friends
When I listen, I find myself wanting to share and jump in the conversation. I’m saying “yes, girls, me too!” It’s nice to hear moms that have similar feelings to my own. I feel better, I feel validated and I feel “normal”. I’m just sorry I can’t chat with Audrey and Jen in person.
Skip therapy Moms
Literally this is better than my therapist that I go to to deal with all my mom guilt. Listen and feel better about your parenting choices after the first podcast. Keep up the work ladies- I’m sure your helping out a lot of moms with the guilt.
Just what I needed
A great coffee chat with real mom friends. So glad these two saved us a seat at the table!
