This podcast starts how every unhinged mom group post does: “Delete if not allowed…” Rachel and Cori are two best friends who became moms at the same time through very different paths - and talk through everything you’d ask (or be too nervous to ask) your mom group about. Whether you’re a silky mom, a crunchy mom, or somewhere in between - they’ve got something for you. Their hilarious anecdotes, hot takes on all things parenting, and advice for new moms will keep you laughing when your toddler makes you want to cry.
The moms talk about, ironically, the stress of being stressed as a mother. Are you responsible for setting the tone for the family? Is that even fair? How do we manage? Cori and Rachel go through some recent behavior wins, an OCD flare, upcoming trips, and other fun things too.
A lot going on this week: we’re learning why they are called the “f*ck you fours.” Would you look through your partner’s phone? We also recap Mother’s Day, a hospital stay, and more!
The moms get deep this week - are all people with young children miserable? Is the let them theory as easy as it seems? What words do we actually find helpful as we navigate parenthood and life?
We had a bit of an unexpected hiatus, but we’re here to recap what’s been going on. We’re talking about being in the sandwich generation, preschool drama (with a surprise religious twist??), and more. We’re back!!
The moms mention it all this week. The world is still a crazy place - how do you navigate politics with family (hint: no one knows). Rachel and Cori talk about the “getting coffee with your younger self trend” - what would they say? Would young Rach and Cor even listen? Snapping back into the now, they also discuss adjusting to different bodies postpartum (and how do you even dress a body that doesn’t feel like yours??) and the weight of the decision of expanding your family (or not).
The world has become a very heavy place in the last few weeks - how do you keep pushing forward right now? The moms discuss how to show up this week, especially now when it feels harder than ever before. Cori gives a Disney recap and Rachel chronicles lessons learned on a Target trip gone awry.
Is Miss Rachel selling out? What’s up with some of the newest baby items to hit the market? And why is Rachel more anxious for Cori’s Disney trip than she is? 2025 is wild so far.
Rachel and Cori recap their vision board experience and create their 2025 Bingo Board. The moms are setting some big goals this year, and they talk about those and what they want to get out of this new year (with some laughs, of course).
The moms are back before the door closes on 2024. Rachel and Cori catch up on the holidays, do a bingo board recap, and talk about setting intentions for the new year.
The holiday craziness has arrived full force. Rachel and Cori recap Thanksgiving and try to answer the question of am I doing enough for the holidays or does it not actually matter? The moms talk about holding boundaries, holiday gifts, daycare and more this week as the year wraps up.
Cori and Rachel catch up on the big move. The moms talk about empathy and weight of never taking a day off of motherhood. Daycare hits a wall but inspires a new dream. Rachel celebrates her birthday. If you’re looking for an escape from the chaos of everything going on right now, this episode is it!
This week, the motto is: fake it til you make it. The moms wonder: where is the line when there’s a public meltdown? Rachel and Cori talk through the drama around The Resilient Jenkins, the narrative of boys being “left behind,” and how they talk about college with their kids. Dressing the part as a professional woman who is also a mom is getting more difficult. Cori talks about the upcoming transitions in her life.
What a week! Rachel and Cori discuss fall activities with little kids gone awry, a birthday party recap, Rachel’s road trip with her mom that ALSO went awry, the nightmare of a c-section scar reopening, 17 diapers, more TikTok drama…believe us when we say it’s a juicy one.
This week, the moms are talking survival with two: bedtime, sleep, schedules (or lack thereof), behavior - and how you really just don’t know what kind of mom you’ll be the first or second time around. Rachel tries a new dance class, and Cori tries ChatGPT to solve her parenting problems.
For our first TV Mom of the Month, how could we NOT do a Gilmore Girls deep dive? We know you’re in your annual rewatch, so grab your cup of coffee and join us in our metaphorical Stars Hollow gazebo as we explore the complex relationships of the show.
The moms are BACK! Rachel and Cori catch up on some big life updates + what to expect from this season.
In the Season 2 Finale, the moms catch up on Cori’s journey to bringing Leo into the world, the literal hot mom summer ahead, and thoughts on being back in the newborn stage. Rachel and Cori are taking the summer off, but will be back with Season 3 in Fall 2024!
Listen, things took a hard left turn. The moms give an update on the latest chaos and what’s coming next!
Rachel walks through her experience with IVF. Cori talks about her upcoming induction. The moms also talk prepping for a sibling and how it’s really going now that Rachel is a bit deeper into having two kids age two and under.
Rachel and Cori recap and give their thoughts on the Miss Rachel controversy. The toddlers are going through it right now, and it’s a struggle for the moms. And with all of this - summer is on the horizon, and that probably means travel for a lot of families. How do you survive it with small kids? We cover a lot of ground this week, so buckle up!
