#MOMTRUTHS with Cat & Nat

We're talking about what it's really like to live in an ADHD brain—one that doesn't always prioritize the way the world expects it to. It's not laziness. It's not incompetence. It's just a different operating system. AI might be trying to recreate “standard brains,” but it can't replicate the messy, out-of-order, last-minute, lightning-in-a-bottle brains. Those are the ones that will change the world. Value the people who don't fit the mold. Life would be boring without them.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Communication is at the heart of everything. It builds our relationships, and when it breaks down, so do we. Professor Jaime Hamilton knows this better than anyone, and she's passionate about teaching people how to communicate in a way that actually brings more connection, clarity, and calm — especially when it matters most. Jaime helps explain how bullying can look different in real life versus online — and how parents and kids alike can use communication as a powerful tool to stop a bully in their tracks in both spaces. For more helpful info on how to respond to a bully visit @the_communication_expert. This podcast is presented by The Common Parent.

This week we're getting into it — the 10 things every married couple needs to know about sex, because no one gives you the manual, and a lot of us are just out here winging it. We get into it, like should you really be putting your sex life on pause while raising kids? We also had to get into why men are SO horny when they're hungover. You can barely walk, barely talk, but THIS is your priority?! Make it make sense.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

With the release of Happy Gilmore, we figured it was the perfect time to revisit our chat with Erinn and Oliver Hudson. We talked about everything: breaking intergenerational trauma, past relationships, sex, infidelity (and how to actually move through it), and all the messy, beautiful stuff in between. It was such a great convo, we had to turn it into a two-parter. Check them out and see why we're obsessed. And if you need a daily laugh (or just want to witness some peak couple energy), go follow @theoliverhudson and @ehud26 — you won't regret it.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

SUMMER 2025 RERUNSWe are officially at the half way point of our summer and bringing you another one of your favourite episodes! Every day, there's another headline about kids and phones — how screen time is hurting their mental health, their ability to focus, and even how we parent. There's clearly a problem. But we're on our phones too. And sometimes handing over a screen is the only way to get through dinner, a grocery run, or just one quiet moment. We're not proud of it, but it's the reality for so many of us. We're parenting through something we never dealt with as kids, with no guide and a whole lot of guilt. Will the next generation of parents, armed with all this research and hindsight, do things differently?

In this repeat episode, we are diving into some truly wild and messy cheating stories—and just to be clear, none of them are ours! From secret second families to shocking best friend betrayals, we're breaking down how it all went down, how they got caught, and who was in the middle of it.

With the new Happy Gilmore movie making waves, we knew this was the perfect time to bring this episode back! We're throwing it back to our hilarious convo with one of the funniest moms we know and love, Julie Bowen—aka Claire Dunphy from Modern Family. Julie is a two-time Emmy winner, made two iconic appearances in Happy Gilmore, and has been busy ever since: starring in Mixtape and Hubie Halloween, Totally Killer, The Fallout, voicing Disney characters, directing, launching a tween boy skincare line (JB SKRUB), sitting on the board of Baby2Baby, and raising three teenage boys. No big deal. This chat might've even earned us a little street cred with our kids. Check out more from Julie on IG at @itsjuliebowen.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

We're talking about the wild ride of getting your kid ready for university—the pressure, the questions, the panic, the prep. Are they really supposed to already know what they want to do with the rest of their lives? Because it sure feels like some of those kids have it all figured out. And then there's the idea that you should land a job you're passionate about the second you graduate. We might have an unpopular opinion on that one.

In today's repeat episode, we talk about the pressure cooker that comes with Grade 11 decision-making. Are teens really supposed to know what they want to do with the rest of their lives before they've even finished high school? Apparently. Because here in Canada, what you choose now dictates what courses you take, and that dictates what doors stay open—or close. Kids are feeling the weight of “figuring it all out” way too soon.

You know we had to talk about the Coldplay kiss cam moment that had everyone talking, watching, sharing, forwarding and gossiping about. These days, your whole life can literally implode in under five seconds—even if you didn't post a single thing yourself. When did the wife find out? Did she get a million texts that night? Honestly, it makes us feel nauseous. Their scandal has become the internet's entertainment. And while it's messy, it's also a good teaching moment for our kids: nothing is private anymore.

This episode goes in a few different directions—in true Cat & Nat fashion. We chat about the latest in pop culture, a post we shared that sparked some unexpected clap back (and what we really think about her comment), and a lot more in between. Plus, we ask the important question: would Jon Hamm be a good match for Nat? Truly a little bit of everything this Tuesday!Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Raising boys and girls can feel like parenting two entirely different species. The experience is different, the energy is different—and both come with their own unique challenges and rewards. In this episode, we unpack some of the common stereotypes and doomsday narratives about raising boys—and why those stories miss the mark. Boys today are often more emotionally aware than we give them credit for, sometimes even more in tune than their dads. As moms, one of our most important roles is learning how to really see them, understand what they need, and meet them where they are.This podcast is presented by The Common Parent.

In this repeat favourite, we're diving into all the things you didn't know you needed to talk about—like peeing in the shower. Is it gross? Is it a genius timesaver? We've got thoughts. And we're also getting into the big question: when your kid heads off to university, what do you actually do with their room? Keep it like a shrine or let a younger sibling swoop in with a full-on makeover?Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

On today's repeat episode, we're thinking about what we'd tell our younger selves—and our kids—about sex, relationships, and all the confusing stuff in between. There's this idea that sex equals desire, love, attraction, and a healthy relationship—and if you're not having sex, something must be wrong. And if you are having sex, people assume everything is perfect. That's not how it works. Sex is one slice, sure—but so is connection, laughter, teamwork, and just doing life together. Especially on a family vacation where “intimacy” looks more like hiding in the bathroom for five minutes of silence.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Remember when you went to university, picked a major, and walked out with a job waiting? That's not how it works anymore. AI is flipping the job market upside down. Half the jobs our kids will do don't even exist yet, and in our opinion, university has become more of a social experiment than a career guarantee. We're unpacking the pressure of picking the “right" path and why spending time learning what you actually enjoy might just be the smartest move of all.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Putting boundaries in place with toddlers can feel straightforward—but when our kids become teenagers, those boundaries start to shift, take on new forms, and become important for entirely different reasons. There's a lot of fear wrapped up in parenting teens, so we brought in Dr. Jenny Hwang, a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience helping parents navigate connection, conflict, and everything in between—without fear, shame, or fluff. With a no-nonsense approach, Jenny challenges mainstream parenting advice and helps parents move through the emotional blind spots that often sabotage connection. Rooted in both clinical expertise and her own lived experience as a parent, she's here to help us decode our teens' behavior and build relationships based on trust, not control.

You can totally love yourself… and still not feel 100% confident. You can be in friendships or relationships where you're constantly overthinking, and forgetting to actually live your life because you're too busy chasing what they're doing. But here's the truth: the second you stop giving a sh*t is the second people stop messing with your emotions. The minute you throw down a boundary? That's when everything changes.

We blinked and suddenly it's summer — and with it comes distracted driving season. People are missing turns, staring at their phones, or just completely zoning out behind the wheel. No surprise it's one of the biggest traffic issues in the city right now. And with our own kids creeping toward driving age, we're spiraling just a little bit. Confidence matters, but experience matters even more. Sometimes you've got to predict a bad driver's move before they make it. Are teens even equipped to do that? Are we confident Nat is equipped?!Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

In this popular repeat episode, we're chatting about one of those parenting topics that always gets people talking—do you let your underage teen and their friends have a drink at your house?

We want to write erotica. But not your typical steamy story… we're talking one from a mom's perspective. We want more than the same old storylines where it's all about him. We're dreaming of a rom-com with a side of heat—where the main character is a mom juggling real life and still finding time for the GOOD stuff. Something with just the right amount of spice—because let's be honest, we deserve more than another Hallmark movie. Could this be our next big project?Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

We're recapping Cat's daughter's 16th birthday party and yes… there was a full-blown backyard extravaganza. And it got us thinking—how did we get here? When we were growing up, birthday parties were lucky-if-you-even-celebrated situations. After 11, it was a sleepover, a frozen pizza, and a few extra blankets in the basement. Now it's balloon arches, custom cakes, and themed photo booths. Birthday parties are officially off the rails. Is it time to bring back the basement sleepover?Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Some people you forget the second they walk away. And then there are the ones you never forget—because they were either so kind… or so not. This week, we're talking about the people from grade school and high school who left a mark, and how something they said or did can stay with you for a lifetime.

Teenagers and their BIG FEELINGS. From sky-high highs to dramatic lows, it's all actually pretty normal. Being self-focused is part of their job right now — it's how they're wired. But that doesn't mean we can't help them process and release those emotions in healthier ways. Sometimes they just need permission to feel without being told there's a problem. Teenagers are a different breed, in the best way possible.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

This week we're chatting about relationships between girls and boys — the sometimes awkward, messy, confusing kind. From school friends to heartbreaks, what does it really mean when someone rejects you? You don't have to be besties with everyone, and just because someone doesn't want to date you doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you. Rejection is not failure — it's redirection. Let's normalize what real connection looks like — not just romantic, but supportive, solid friendships too.This podcast is presented by The Common Parent.

This week we're talking underwear — the sad state of our current collection, how ridiculously expensive it is to buy the good stuff, and why we're leaning into all-black undies thanks to the surprise periods of perimenopause. But post-menopause? Game on. Lacy, colourful, white, downright sexy — no more playing it safe. We're manifesting a future where our underwear drawer is more “ooh la la” and less “laundry day emergency” (aka our current situation).Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

By the time our kids are dating, apparently their plus-ones might be robots. Yep—literal robots. Sitting at our dinner tables, making awkward small talk… or maybe it wouldn't be awkward because they'd be programmed to say all the right things? Either way, it's a hard no from us.

We're recapping our amazing trip to the Bahamas with two of our boys — just the four of us this time. The other five kids stayed home (and shockingly… didn't even complain about it). We put on the swimsuits, got our hair wet, and made core memories. It was the kind of trip that reminded us what really matters. And here's your reminder: wear the dang suit. Get in the water. Splash around. Be in the memories. Your kids won't remember what you looked like — they'll remember that you were there.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

We are brining you one of your favourite episodes on this holiday Monday. As our teens get older, we start to realize something big: our voice — the one they used to hang on every word of — isn't the loudest in their world anymore. Suddenly, we're just one of many voices competing for space. Their friends matter. Like, really matter. The people they hang out with can shape everything — for better or worse. Are we on the sidelines watching it all unfold, or are we still able to step in and say, “Hey… I'm not sure about this”? We brought in Marybeth Bock, MPH (Master of Public Health), to talk about how parents can approach these moments from a place of curiosity instead of judgment — and why that shift can make all the difference. Marybeth writes for platforms like Raising Teens Today, Grown and Flown, and Collegiate Parent, and she gets it. Check her out on Instagram at @mbbock for more real-talk wisdom on raising teens.This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need to for your teens & tweens.

In this episode, Nat takes us on a nostalgic trip down memory lane—back to the days of makeout sessions that stopped just short of the main event: dry humping, plus a few of the unfortunate accidents that came with it. From the curse of khakis to doors that really should've been locked, nothing is off the table. We're also officially putting out a call: we need a guy to come on the pod and tell us what it was all like from their perspective.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

We're talking about the promposal Taylor got at her dance competition—in public, with signs and everything! While we love the romance of it all, we can't get over the insane pressure these kids are under to make these moments Instagram-worthy. From giant signs to full-on public performances! Honestly, we're kind of glad this wasn't a thing when we were teens. What happened to a simple “Will you go to prom with me?” folded up in a note?Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

We're talking about "mean girls" and how mean girl behavior has evolved in the digital age. It's no longer just whispered comments or exclusion at recess—today, manipulation can happen through group chats, DMs, screenshots and social media posts. Girls are being targeted in more subtle, calculated ways—using each other's words against them, turning private conversations into public humiliation, and isolating others with just a few taps on a screen. It's hard to know how to help. How can we support our kids through a social landscape that's constantly shifting?This podcast is presented by The Common Parent.

How many times do dolphins have sex? And do manatees masturbate? This week, we somehow dove into the sex habits of mammals—starting with dolphins and then wandering into even stranger waters with manatees and whether or not they enjoy a little “solo” time. Which oddly led us straight to dinosaurs. Did they actually have sex? Or did they just lay eggs and call it a day? We have zero science degrees but so many questions.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Nat reveals her latest indulgence that has taken over her mornings - and maybe her waistline - bagels. The conversation spirals from there into why Cat works out and how great it would be to bring back the workout mentality of the 80's. In a surprise twist, Nat shows us exactly what her teenage workout looked like—and it's not what you would expect.

What's really happening behind our kids' screens? As parents, it's more important than ever to educate ourselves to the max. We can't assume our kids would “know better” — because when it comes to fast decisions and online pressure, common sense often goes out the window. N*des are being sent and received every single day. And most of us weren't raised with any kind of rulebook for how to handle that — let alone how to help our kids through it. That's why we need to truly understand what's going on so we can parent them through it, not just react to it. Get informed and lead from a place of awareness — not fear.This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need to for your teens & tweens.

This week we're pulling back the curtain on what really goes down at dance competitions. When the pressure's on, emotions can run high (like, really high), and suddenly moms become emotional buffers just trying to keep the peace. You're whispering calmly while your kid is spiraling because they haven't eaten enough and their hair is secured with 37 bobby pins digging into their scalp. One wrong word could send them over the edge. Somehow, through all the tension and tiptoeing, there are lessons in patience, resilience, and how to show up when it's hard. It's exhausting… but it's also kind of amazing.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Can you actually learn to be happy? We all know that happiness isn't something you can buy, but can money help make you happy? So many of us are living pretty great lives but miss it because we're busy chasing the next thing, comparing ourselves to everyone else, or feeling like we're not where we “should” be. If your life doesn't look exactly like the picture you envisioned, maybe it's time to recalibrate. We'd love to hear your take: What actually makes you happy right now? And if you're feeling a little unhappy, what do you think would help you get there?Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Teen sports are equal parts commitment and carpooling. In this episode, we're talking about that tricky moment in time when your kid wants to quit sports. Do you let them? Do you push through? Some parents have rules like “one school sport per semester,” but we're not in the market for forcing our kids to do things they're miserable doing—because then guess what? It becomes our problem.
