TRIGGER WARNING: Before you listen to this episode, please note that we discuss loss. We want to be considerate, share, and support all motherhood journies, but also want you to be considerate of your mental capacity. In this episode, Bri and Michelle chat with Janina Ramos, Bri's mom, and delve into her introduction to motherhood, how it has shaped her perspective on parenting. We'll continue her story next week.

As the kids get older Bri and Michelle discuss the innate parts of their personalities and how we navigate tantrums, coming up with options that they'll actually eat, and continuing to go through postpartum.

For the first time, both kids are sick, and they've passed their illness onto the rest of the family. When you feel sick, you realize how helpful it is to have people you trust around to help take care of the children. Bri and Michelle have different levels of help, but both women can admit -- it is truly a gift to have when raising a family.

This is the first time we've brought TV into our chat, but episode 3 of Insecure presented so many emotions for us as women that we had to bring our conversation out of our texts and actually chat through it on this week's episode. There are so many layers and complexities to relationships and deciding to have a child -- there is no right or wrong, but here we chat through our POV.

Bri and Michelle catch up on the happenings of motherhood from going through daycare selection, planning birthday parties, and all of the ends and outs of navigating motherhood as best friends.

After so many requests to talk about sex, we wanted to get into the changes that can happen once you have children, the pressures of societal norms, feeling confident & secure, and getting back to being the best version of you. Life is a journey, and we're just sharing the real tea on our approach and opinions as we navigate our experience in real-time.

Michelle and Bri speak about the many unspoken changes and adjustments that come with motherhood. There are tons of internal and external pressures but ultimately we want you to know that all of your feelings are valid. It's ok to feel tired, overwhelmed, and appreciative all at the same time! You are not alone in your feelings, we hope you can relate to us too!

Chatting through the kids getting older. It's insane to know the kids are turning one, going to school, eating food, being little humans. How did we get here?!

After taking a six-month hiatus to manage our children, our families, our social lives, and everything else... we're finally back to bring ya'll into our motherhood journey as first-time moms managing it all.

Typical Tuesday with two best friends spilling the tea. We discuss an array of topics from getting the kids on a sleep schedule, the COVID vaccine, to our thoughts on having more children and having a hot mom summer!

If you just need a little girl talk in your life, this episode is for you! In casual convo we chat about everything from poop on the comforter to managing work, to the milestones of the kids. Come on into our world!!

We invited our friend Jourdan (mom of two) to discuss motherhood and how it's impacted her world as a wife and a woman. We get candid about keeping your relationship priority, and staying true to who you are as a woman, without the man or the kids. Her last bit of advice, relax!!
