Writers interviewing writers about the messy space where creativity, career, and kids collide.
The podcast I’ve been waiting for
2022/08/15
This podcast is creative, brave, thoughtful, real, and what the world needs right now. It’s the conversation I've been craving in my ears for so long. Unlike so many podcasts out there, the hosts ask insightful, deeply curious questions that allow the guests to share truthful, practical, revolutionary ideas, as well as selections from their actual works. This podcast makes writers and creatives feel fully seen and whole, making space for both parenting and creative practice and development, an intersection that is invisible in most of our culture. The creativity and heart of the rapid fire at the end took my breath away and brought tears to my eyes. If you are a creative parent, you MUST listen to these conversations — you will feel renewed, seen, and inspired.
Listen to chats about people bringing newness into the world

The first episode did it. A compelling, curious, and captivating conversation that is able to hold a space where the winding journeys of creative careers interweave and gain depth from the emotional and psychic journeys of parenting. Loved the word association and the questions that open up and lead to frank, friendly chats that feel as though you’ve been invited around a table to talk and ask the big and small life questions.
Like chatting over coffee with fellow creative professional moms!
2022/07/08
These are the words I needed to hear in those first crazy weeks/months/years of being a mom. There's so much focus on the baby, not enough talk about how the transition to "matresence" can turn your life upside down. Hormones, newborn logistics, changing priorities and losing your sense of focus and purpose are all real challenges mothers are unprepared for, and it's so helpful to hear about all of those things from fellow creative professionals who are learning to balance new motherhood with other life goals and dreams. Listening to this podcast while having my morning coffee is like meeting up with friends who "get" me.
Honest, nuanced, and still inspiring

I’m not even a mom and I love this show! I like hearing the honest and thoughtful interviews and even though I don’t share this experience, I also struggle with questions of identity, family, and making time for myself amidst competing priorities and life’s chaos, so it still feels personal and relevant to me.
