Damned If You Do, Damned If You Don’t

In this deeply personal conversation, Julija walks us through every twist of her transformation - from boldly announcing on date two that she was done “floating” and ready to become a mother, to enduring early miscarriages, and eight rounds of IVF before finally holding her children. Along the way, she confronts the shame of choices judged by other women, unpacks the grief of leaving her old self behind, and wrestles with the identity and value of being a stay‑at‑home mom. Tune in as she shatters myths, redefines ambition, and reveals the unexpected resilience that motherhood can forge.

Postpartum: The Feelings We Don’t Talk About

Postpartum isn’t one-size-fits-all and comes differently to every parent. In this episode, we talke about what we’ve felt since becoming moms. The emotions that came after giving birth that shaped us, surprised us, stayed with us, or slowly faded away - and how those emotions have changed (or stayed) two years later. We also mention Fatima’s Substack post, where she writes about her own postpartum journey with rage - something that resonated with us. Maybe it will with you, too. (Link https://fatimamousa.substack.com) What emotions surprised you the most after becoming a parent?

Father’s Day Special - “I Didn’t Want Kids... And Then I Met Marissa”

We’re sharing one of our most personal conversations yet. In this episode, David Mishler opens up about becoming a father at 41 after once swearing he’d never have kids. He shares how love changed his perspective, how fatherhood cracked him open, and what it means to show up every day - for his daughter Eva, for his wife Marissa, and for himself. We talk about dad guilt, partner guilt, disassociation, emotional regulation, and what it takes to model strength and softness at the same time. If you could tell your father one thing today, what would it be?

I Hate Being Pregnant

An unfiltered, unapologetic conversation about the unspoken realities of pregnancy - the physical discomfort, emotional turmoil, and the taboo truth that you can be grateful to be pregnant while still hating every minute of it. Join us as we break down the uncomfortable duality, challenge stigmas, and validate real experiences that never make it into baby books. Have you ever felt guilty for not loving the pregnancy experience everyone says you should?

Between Worlds: Growing Up Mixed

Geraldine and Stef share a raw and personal conversation about growing up mixed race and as third culture kids (TCKs). They reflect on how their multicultural upbringings shaped their identities, the challenges of belonging, and how these experiences now influence the decisions they make as parents - from moving countries to seeking more diverse environments for their own children. If you’re mixed race or a TCK, how has that shaped how you see yourself - and where you feel you belong? We’d love to hear your story!

Fatima visits Lebanon: Coming Home as a Mom

After two and a half years, Fatima finally visited Lebanon - this time, not just as a daughter, but as a mother. Her parents met her son for the first time - a moment filled with nostalgia, emotions, and hard realizations. Visiting after the war made everything feel different. More than anything, having a son changed the way she sees home. What once felt nostalgic now felt uncertain - is this a place she could raise him in? Have you ever gone back home as a parent? What changed for you? Share your experience with us
