Hot Mom Talks is BACK for Season 2!  Let's kick things off with a summer recap. TL;DR: None of our summers went according to plan. From no camps and a cracked tooth to 24/7 camps with a side of COVID and a concussion, to a mix of both and some ballet, we were all over the map.  How, we're in back-to-school survival mode: emergency snack stashes, outfit prep systems, and the magic of pulling the shades at 4 p.m. on Fridays. We also get into kids’ friendships — when to step in, when to back off, and how to teach skills we’re all still figuring out as adults. Plus, why the dads aren't making friends and how the moms keep ending up as their social planners. As if we need another thing to manage! Next week: the worst marital fights we can finally laugh about, plus fielding our kids’ first big questions about sex.  So good to be back. Cheers to Season 2!

We're back — and this time we're getting into the stuff nobody puts on the highlight reel. In Part 2 of our Hot Mom Talks series on raising neurodivergent kids, we're going there. From the comments other parents make that make you want to scream, to the birthday parties that are honestly kind of a nightmare for everyone involved — we're talking about the real, unfiltered, day-to-day experience of raising a child whose mind works a little differently. We're getting into food. Because if you know, you know. We're not aiming for a balanced plate over here — we're celebrating the fact that they’re eating. Full stop.  We're talking about the boundaries that have nothing to do with other people's expectations and everything to do with what actually works for your kid. About the friendships that shifted — or disappeared — when your reality became harder for others to understand. About getting kicked out of daycare. Twice. About a world that was simply not built for these beautiful, complex little minds. But we're also talking about the wins — the ones that only you understand, the ones that make every hard day worth it. The hidden gifts. The moments of pure magic that only come from raising a child who experiences the world so differently, so deeply, so fully. And we're talking about how to actually show up for the moms in your life who are in the thick of it — because sometimes we all need our village. This one is raw. It's real. It's for every mom who has ever cried in a parking lot, advocated endlessly, and loved fully. Because nobody told us it would look like this. But nobody told us how beautiful it could be either. Note: We're moms, not doctors.

If you have concerns about your child's development or diagnosis, please reach out to your pediatrician or a specialist.

Nobody prepares you for the moment you realize your child experiences the world differently than most. The school meetings. The evaluations. The therapy appointments. The well-meaning advice. The 2 a.m. research spirals. The grief that nobody talks about — and the fierce, overwhelming love that powers you through all of it. This is Part 1 of our Hot Mom Talks series on raising neurodivergent kids — and we're saying the quiet parts out loud. We're also welcoming our very first guest host, Emilie Labud, a mom of two whose also navigating parenting in the neurodivergent space.  We're getting into our journeys to diagnosis, what it actually feels like to advocate for your child in a system that wasn't always built for them, and the moments that made us realize everything we thought we knew about parenting had to be reimagined from the ground up. This episode isn't about fixing your kid. It's about understanding them. Championing them. And finding your people in the middle of what can feel like a very lonely road. Whether you're deep in the trenches, newly diagnosed, or just starting to ask questions — this one is for you.  Note: We're moms, not doctors.

Kids say things that make you question everything—your parenting, your life choices, and occasionally, your sanity. This week we're spilling the most unhinged, unexplainable, and honestly kind of genius things our kids have said lately, because nothing humbles you faster than a six-year-old with a theory about the universe. But we're also talking summer plans. And here's the thing: we're all doing it completely differently. One of us has a color-coded camp schedule. One of us is throwing it back to a full 90s summer — bikes, sunscreen, and a "be home before dark" rule. One of us is doing a healthy mix of both. And honestly? All of it is right. Because there's no one way to do summer, just like there's no one way to do motherhood. Whether you're a plan-every-minute mom or a let-them-run-wild mom—we're here for all of it. This episode is equal parts chaotic, hilarious, and a little bit of a love letter to summer and the unpredictable tiny humans we're spending it with.

She existed before the school runs, the meal prep, and the mental load that never clocks out. She had a career, spontaneous plans, and a version of herself that belonged entirely to her. So where did she go? In this episode of Hot Mom Talks, we're going on a trip — literally and figuratively. We're talking about the quietly radical act of traveling alone as a mom: why it makes us feel so guilty, why it's so necessary, and why every mom deserves to get on a plane by herself at least once and remember what it feels like to just be. But we're also going deeper. We're asking the question nobody really wants to sit with: who were you before kids? Not better or worse — just different. Freer, maybe. Fitter, definitely. And is it possible to find her again without blowing up the life you've built? We're getting into all of it — the identity shift that comes with motherhood, how to reclaim pieces of yourself without the guilt trip, and why solo travel might just be the most underrated form of self-care a mom can give herself. And because we never take ourselves too seriously, we're closing out with Mom's Greatest Hits: our most spectacular, cringe-worthy, couldn't make it up mom fails. Because nothing bonds us faster than knowing we're all out here just winging it. Honest, funny, and maybe a little cathartic — this one's for the mom who sometimes catches a glimpse of her old self and wonders if she's still in there. Spoiler: she is.

It's 2 a.m. The kids are asleep. Your partner is asleep. And you are wide awake asking ChatGPT things you'd never say out loud. In this special UnMothers Day episode, we're getting unfiltered and unapologetic about the weird, vulnerable, funny, and sometimes heartbreaking things moms type into AI when no one is watching. From "am I ruining my kids" to "why is everyone touching me" — ChatGPT doesn't judge, and neither do we. We're also talking about UnMothers Day — and no, it's not about skipping Mother's Day. It's about finally doing it YOUR way. No obligatory brunch you didn't ask for. No card that took three minutes to pick out. No pretending you love breakfast in bed when what you actually want is three hours alone and brunch with your friends.  We talk about our UnMothers Day celebration and give you full permission to celebrate motherhood on your own terms — whether that means sleeping in, going out, doing absolutely nothing, or doing everything you never get to do. You grew humans. You can have the day you actually want. So pour something good, put your headphones in, and let's chat.  No judgment. No filter. Just hot moms being human.

Episode 2 is here, and we’re not holding back. This week, the hosts of Hot Mom Talks are diving into their spiciest hot takes and most unpopular opinions — the kind of thoughts you’ve had but never said out loud. We’re debating alcohol at kids’ birthday parties, settling the age-old question of whether the pool actually counts as a bath, and throwing in a few extra spicy takes that might just make you question everything. Headphones recommended — this is not a speakerphone-in-the-grocery-store situation. Pull up a chair, grab your drink of choice, and get ready for the convo your mom friends are having behind closed doors — out loud.

Hot Mom Talks is the podcast for moms who are done pretending motherhood is pretty.

Hosted by real moms, for real moms. No filters, no judgment, just the conversations your mom group is too scared to have. New episodes weekly. Follow, subscribe, and finally feel seen.
