    It's easy to get caught up in the routine of motherhood but how often do you take a step back and evaluate what's really going on? Why is your child really crying? Are you taking a moment for yourself to recalibrate? On this week's episode, I talk with Bree' Smith who is the founder of The Self Zone and all about mental health.

    Did you know that once your child is born, there are 6,570 days until they turn 18? That may seem like a lot of time but remember that each day, that number gets lower and lower. Pretty soon you make it through year 1, then year 5, then 10 then boom! Your child turns 18. Time goes slow and fast at the same time.

    A lot of women start working out after pregnancy for the "snap back". To look snatched despite having a human come out of your body not too long ago is a major feat, right? Likewise, a lot of women can get discouraged because their body looks different after giving birth and working out isn't giving them the results that they want. But what if women, in postpartum, focus more on body function versus looking nice? On today's episode, I talk with Tonie Lough who helps moms work out for health through her business Mom Home Fitness. In this episode we talk about how she got started as a personal trainer for moms, the misconceptions about body after birth, and why the core is so important.More from TonieGetting to the Core of Postpartum Fitness (eBook) by Tonie Lough: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B098LY18FY/ref=cm_sw_r_u_apa_glt_6EHKZTK39PYV18KQGGQGTonie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mom_home_fitness/Tonie's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/momathomefitnessTonie's Website:  https://www.momathomefitness.com/--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Weird Mom Website: https://weirdmompodcast.com/ Weird Mom Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weirdmompod/ Weird Mom Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WeirdMomPodcast/Weird Mom TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@weirdmompod

    You'll hear me say it time and time again: paid parental leave is essential. But even though paid leave is important, it is not the only aspect of support that should be looked at for parents post partum. On this week's episode, I had the pleasure of talking with Dr. Amy Beacom (founder and CEO of Center for Parental Leave Leadership) and Sue Campbell (Communications Director for the Center for Parental Leave Leadership) who have coauthored a book called The Parental Leave Playbook: 10 Touchpoints to Transition Smoothly, Strengthen Your Family, and Continue Building your Career.  This book, the only of its kind, is a great resource for anyone who plans to take leave from their job to have a child whether it be your first or your fifth child. Join us as we talk about parental leave in the U.S., our own parental leave experiences, and how the Center for Parental Leave Leadership strives to coach employers on how to better support its working parents.ReferencesCenter for Parental Leave Leadership website: https://cplleadership.com/The Parental Leave Playbook: Click hereBook Description: The Parental Leave Playbook helps parents take control of their leave and make the most of what's considered a career time-out, but is actually a vital “time-in” for your work and life. If you're an expecting or new parent concerned about how your leave and return plans will affect your visibility, candidacy for promotion, work relationships, and performance (not to mention your identity and home life), this book will guide you into the smoothest transition possible. Most importantly, this book will help you as you grow and strengthen yourself and your family while remaining a professional.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Weird Mom Website: https://weirdmompodcast.com/ Weird Mom Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weirdmompod/ Weird Mom Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WeirdMomPodcast/Weird Mom TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@weirdmompod

    TRIGGER WARNING: This story does talk about loss of a child.On part two of this month's "Heart Hero Story" series I talk to Chanel who is the mother of a Heart Angel, Lilliana. Initially, Chanel's daughter was diagnosed prenatally with some heart defects as well as Heterotaxy Syndrome. After being born 5 weeks early, it was later discovered that Lilliana had more heart defects than what was told to Chanel prior to giving birth. But thanks to Chanel's constant research and relentless advocacy for her child, Lilliana was able to get treated at one of the best hospitals in the world for cardiac surgery which allowed Chanel and more of Lilliana's loved ones more time with her before becoming a Heart Angel a little over 2 years later.Read more about Lilliana's Journey at "Lilliana's Heart" on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lillianasheart/Donate to or get involved with The Children's Heart Foundation and help further the research of CHD: https://www.childrensheartfoundation.org/------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Weird Mom Website: https://weirdmompodcast.com/ Weird Mom Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weirdmompod/ Weird Mom Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WeirdMomPodcast/Weird Mom YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/38FtlZI--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    How much screen time does your child get each day? This is a question seen often in the mom groups around the interwebs. While the amount of time is up for debate, it doesn't have to all be letting your child sit like a zombie in front of the screen. On this episode I talk with Deborah Copperud and Katie Curler who host a podcast called "It's My Screen Time Too" where they watch children's programming and rate it on "watchability" for grown-ups. While quantity of screen time does come up in our conversation, Deborah and Katie really hone in on how parents can make screen time quality.

    I'll say it once and I'll say it again: kids are growing humans. Being a kid does not last forever and yet, we often times get caught up in parenting and forget that it's just a stage and not the end result of our children's lives. Furthermore, kids are not our humans to own but our humans to take care of nurture. They go at their own pace because they are individuals that are separate from us. This was a huge part of my conversation with Karena Skibinski (host of "What About the Mama?" podcast). Controlling things when it comes to parenting is just so stressful and it'd serve you to relax a little bit and be prepared to go with the flow. Karena's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whatabout_themama/Karena's Website: www.whataboutthemama.com-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Weird Mom Website: https://weirdmompodcast.com/ Weird Mom Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weirdmompod/ Weird Mom Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WeirdMomPodcast/Weird Mom YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/38FtlZI--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    Marriage, amirite? Just like parenthood, there are SO many things people just don't talk about when it comes to having a successful, long-lasting one. Arguably, people might even say less about marriage because it is really such a puzzle to find what works for you and your partner. On this week's episode, I invited my husband Robert back to talk about how the heck two elder teens (since we got married at eighteen and nineteen-years old) made it to year ten. If we're being honest, we don't even know but we're here to share some things we wish we would've known  beforehand and things we've learned along the way. Disclaimer: we are by no means saying "do these things or you won't be successful"; all things shared in this episode are our opinions.

    One thing about parenting that's probably widely known but still hits a little hard is when your child does something you would do. When they share your favorite movie or sport, then it's all fine and dandy but when they start hitting things when they're mad or being super stubborn, it kind of reminds you of someone, huh? This week I talk with April Noelle Grant who is a mother of 4 children and hosts The Other Side of 40 podcast. In our conversation I learn how her daughter is the most similar to her and what that has taught her in her parenting journey. We also talk about the importance of having people in your circle who understand when you need to cancel things unexpectedly.
