In this snack-sized episode, Tara Clark of Modern Mom Probs returns to chat with Ophira Eisenberg about saying no (or more often, yes) to their kids, why the tween years might actually be the sweet spot of parenting, and how a learner-led school changed everything for her 12-year-old son. Tara opens up about resisting the urge to fast-forward conversations with her son—even when he's explaining every last Marvel Rivals stat—and the pressure moms feel to be constantly engaged. They also revisit the rise and fall of the "wine-in-a-sippy-cup" era of mom culture (good riddance), discuss whether microdosing is a modern coping mechanism or just another trend, and laugh about being labeled “boring” for not partying like it's 2010. Most importantly, Tara speaks to the loneliness so many moms feel and how the lack of in-person community and constant comparison on social media makes things worse. Her advice? Put on pants, leave the house, and find your people—even if it starts with guac and iced coffee. Thank you to Lumen for sponsoring this episode!

In this episode of Parenting is a Joke, host Ophira Eisenberg sits down with parenting content creator, meme queen, and Modern Mom Probs founder Tara Clark for a dynamic, deeply relatable conversation about the evolution of modern motherhood. From Tara's early days running Nickelodeon's social media and literally being the voice of Dora the Explorer on Facebook, to launching a meme empire built on honest parenting humor, this episode traces the hilarious and frustrating truths of parenting in the digital age. Tara shares why she left NYC for the suburbs, how her son's preschool closure reshaped their lives, and how her viral quote about the shift from “mama” to “bro” got endlessly merchandised—without credit. They also unpack why sleep training ignites online firestorms, how humor in mom content has shifted from wine memes to mental health, and why the algorithm can't handle jokes about moms doing cocaine (yes, really). Plus, Tara opens up about infertility, her only-child household dynamic, and how pelvic health, social media rules for kids, and late diagnosis conversations are reshaping what moms actually talk about today.

In this engaging episode of Modern Mom Probs, host Tara Clark sits down with Dr. Sara Reardon, a renowned pelvic health physical therapist and creator of the Vagina Whisperer, to shed light on the often-overlooked topic of women's pelvic health. Tara and Dr. Reardon explore why proactive care is essential, how pelvic floor muscles function, and what women can do to maintain long-term pelvic health. Dr. Reardon offers practical tips—from proper posture and bathroom habits to breathing techniques and the importance of using lubrication for comfortable sexual experiences. They discuss how common events like C-sections and menopause can affect pelvic health, and why women shouldn't wait for symptoms to seek help. Dr. Reardon emphasizes the need to address both strength and relaxation in the pelvic floor and encourages regular therapy to prevent future issues. The conversation also touches on the importance of normalizing pelvic health discussions, building community support, and fostering collaboration among healthcare professionals. Dr. Reardon shares how the vibrant culture of New Orleans influences her work and content creation, and she introduces her new book, Floored, which serves as an empowering resource for women seeking to better understand and care for their pelvic health. Key Takeaways: Women often neglect pelvic health until problems arise—proactive education is key. Pelvic floor muscles need both strength and relaxation to function well. Posture, sitting habits, and proper bathroom techniques (like using a stool) make a big difference. C-section scars can create pelvic tension—therapy and awareness help. Breathing exercises and regular pelvic floor therapy can be preventive tools. Lubrication is essential for pain-free, enjoyable sex. Conversations around pelvic health must be normalized to break the stigma. Community and professional support are crucial, especially during menopause. Dr. Reardon's book, Floored, offers education and empowerment for every woman. Whether you're recovering postpartum, approaching menopause, or simply curious about your own body, this episode is a must-listen. Don't miss this empowering conversation that encourages women to take charge of their pelvic health—with confidence.

Parenting, while wonderful, is tough. Every parent knows that. And while some of the parenting challenges that previous generations faced are still applicable today, there are new challenges we're experiencing that have never been dealt with before. No one knows this better than Mrs. Modern Mom Probs herself, Tara Clark. She has been shedding light (and humor) along the way on what mothers face today since 2017. Her work helps mothers feel less alone and reminds us that we're not failing; we're all just trying to do our best. We had to chat with Tara on the show to hear her thoughts on modern mom probs and her solutions! Who is Tara Clark? Tara Clark is an author, speaker, content creator, podcaster, and the founder of Modern Mom Probs. After becoming a mom and recognizing a hole in the online space for moms to connect authentically, she launched her Instagram account in 2017. She has since built a valued community, solidifying herself as a humorous, trusted voice in the parenting space. Tara holds a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from Villanova University and an MBA in Media Management from Metropolitan College of New York. She currently lives in New Jersey with her husband and son. What Did We Discuss? In this episode, we chat with Tara Clark about modern mom problems. We wanted to talk to Tara about some of the most common struggles modern moms face and solutions to help us move forward. Here are several of the questions that we covered in our conversation: What are some of the most common problems modern mothers face today?  In your experience, what are some effective strategies for managing the juggling act of motherhood, work, and personal life? Social media often portrays an idealized version of motherhood, which can lead to comparison and feelings of inadequacy. How do you address this issue, and what advice do you give moms struggling with it? The mental load of motherhood, including managing household tasks, schedules, and emotional labor, is a significant challenge for many mothers. How do you raise awareness about this issue, and what strategies do you suggest for managing the mental load? Parenting is sometimes likened to a competitive sport, with pressure to excel in various aspects. How do you advocate for a more supportive and empathetic approach to parenting? What are some ways moms can combat feelings of isolation? How do you encourage moms to prioritize their mental health and well-being amidst the demands of parenthood, especially in a culture that often glorifies busyness and self-sacrifice? How can modern moms prioritize self-compassion and self-care when feeling overwhelmed or burnt out? What would it be if you could give modern mothers one piece of advice? Mamas, we are human. We make mistakes. However, we must remember that we are trying our best, and our best is good enough. Give yourself more grace as you navigate this stage of motherhood (and the next stage, and the next). If you're listening to this episode, chances are, you're a very good mother. We hope you feel the love and support you so deserve.

Show notes: https://www.tamihackbarth.com/blog/episode-235 This week in the 2024 Summer Podcast Series we are headed way into the archives back to episode 15 of the 100% Guilt-Free Self-Care podcast:  Body Acceptance, Body Neutrality and Yoga for Those That Think It Isn't For Them with Anna Guest-Jelley. While I was first introduced to the idea of function over form in my late 20s, I still suffered from internal battles about beauty standards and our cultural obsession with thinness. It was the 90s and early 2000s when heroin chic was a thing. It wasn't until I got into my serious yoga practice in my late 30s that I began noticing again the functionality of my body. Some days I could do endless Sun salutations and other days I could barely get off the floor.  Thankfully the studio where I was practicing was one that asked us to practice self-compassion and acceptance while we were on the mat. Anna was one of the people who I connected with online. She had been using yoga as a tool to relieve her frequent migraines.  She has always lived in a bigger body and finding a safe place to practice was a challenge. So she created her own.

I would love to hear about your trips, your traditions and how you spend your time away from home when you get it. I didn't grow up with yearly vacations so this is all new territory for me. Please share! Are you on Threads? I am one of those weirdos that loves meeting new people on social media platforms, so when it started I jumped right in. It reminds me of what Twitter was back in the beginning….a cocktail party full of smart people I don't know yet and I can attend while wearing my pajamas. That's where I met this week's podcast guest. We were both chatting people up on Threads and started talking to each other. We got to meet in real life at Mom2 Summit and as she said, “the conversation was so good we walked to the bathroom together and kept right on talking”. Have you met Tara Clark of Modern Mom Probs?

Are you a “good enough” mother?On the latest episode of Modern Mom Probs, Tara welcomes Dr. Tanya Cotler, a seasoned psychologist specializing in reproductive and maternal mental health and the parent-child relationship. Dr. Cotler explored the idea of the "good enough mother," a term coined by Donald Winnicott in the 1950s. Being a good enough mother means finding a balance between not being overly precise or intrusive in parenting, while also not being dismissive. This approach allows the child to develop into their true self while still receiving the necessary care and support from their mother. Dr. Cotler explains that if a parent is overly hands-on or too dismissive, there is not enough space for the child to develop their own identity. This can lead to the development of a false self or a coping mechanism like people-pleasing. The key is finding the sweet spot!To explore further, she touched on the phase of maternal preoccupation in early motherhood, where the mother is completely focused on the child. However, as the child grows, there needs to be space for them to become their own person. Good enough mothering also involves allowing the child to experience failures and frustrations, which helps them develop trust and frustration tolerance.In this insightful, relatable conversation, Dr. Cotler also emphasizes the need for mothers to create space for themselves, allowing for a range of emotions and reducing shame. She discusses the concept of rupture and repair in parent-child relationships and highlights the importance of inner repair through self-reflection. She is currently working on a book that explores maternal mental health and parent-child attachment.If you've ever wondered if you're a “good enough” mother, you should listen to this episode.Links:https://drtanyacotler.com/https://www.instagram.com/drcotler/https://renni.ca/Support the show Follow & DM me @modernmomprobs Pick up my book Check out modernmomprobs Shout out to Citizens of Sound Leave a review

As a mother, it can often feel like you are carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. From postpartum depression to raising neurodivergent children, the challenges can be overwhelming. But the good news is that you don't have to go through it alone. In this “Modern Mom Probs” podcast episode, Tara talks with two amazing women who have created strong supportive communities for mothers: Aubrey Grossen and Megan Champion. In this raw conversation, they emphasize the importance of finding a community and the power of connecting with others who understand your struggles. Aubrey shares her experience with postpartum depression and anxiety, which led her to create a group for moms to support each other. Megan shares her experience raising a neurodivergent child and feeling overwhelmed and isolated. She started the On the Hard Days podcast to share her story and connect with other moms raising neurodivergent kids. This led her to create Mothers Together, an online support community that matches moms with similar experiences to help them find their people. Both women also have strong communities on the Marco Polo video app. The conversation highlights the challenges that moms face in finding supportive communities. Megan points out the limitations of in-person support groups, which can be too formal, inconvenient, and infrequent for many moms. She emphasizes the importance of creating a space where moms can be vulnerable and share the real struggles of motherhood. Aubrey adds that it can be difficult for moms to prioritize self-care and seek out communities when they are already carrying a heavy mental load.If you've ever struggled to find “your people,” listen to this episode. Links:https://www.ontheharddays.com/podcasthttps://mothers-together.mn.co/https://www.aubreygrossen.com/https://www.anewyouagain.com Follow & DM me @modernmomprobs Pick up my book Check out modernmomprobs Shout out to Citizens of Sound Leave a review

"How will divorce affect my kids?" is one of the first questions any parent will ask themselves when deciding to end a marriage. While we don't have a crystal ball to predict the future, we do have endless resources to turn to for guidance, advice, and information related to how divorce affects children. The best resources in my opinion are the grown up children of divorce; the adults who can look back and clearly identify what affected them, how it felt, and how it has shaped them today. On this episode of Moms Moving On, we hear from good friend and talented Author, Entrepreneur, and Instagram personality Tara Clark, of @modernmomprobs. Tara experienced divorce as a child and gives us an open and honest take of how divorce affected her life both as a child and now as a mother.

Tara saw the potential to use her professional experience in social media and build a brand centered around motherhood. She took the brave step, and today Modern Mom Probs has more than 750,000 Instagram followers to go along with Tara's successful blog, book, and clothing subscription service.  Social media is a powerful tool for creating and growing a brand. But Tara warns that there's more to it than just posting nice pictures and witty captions—content creation involves countless hours of planning, editing, coordinating outside help, working with brands, building a community, and more.  At the heart of growing social media presence is community. Tara says it's called social media for a reason because it allows people to connect with and engage with others. When Tara started her social media brand five years ago, she found a group of other entrepreneurs who supported and shared each other's content. That community gave her the tools and insights to grow her brand and helped her find more success than she would have on her own.  Tara acknowledges that there is a certain amount of luck to social media, especially when a post goes viral and brings in tons of new followers. But her best advice is to engage with people by having fresh content that resonates with them. When people see content they can connect with and that is valuable to them, it brings them together and builds a strong community they want to share with others. Tara's account started as a place to share jokes and memes about motherhood but has expanded to also include inspirational and educational mom-related content. Offering a wider variety of content and expanding into video has helped her brand grow. Creative content that stands out can catch people's eye.   Tara also recommends putting your content everywhere. Repurposing content by putting the same image or caption in your newsletter, blog, Instagram page, etc., maximizes your work and effort while also ensuring the content is seen by more people and can have a greater impact without a higher cost.  There's no better place for full-time influencers or entrepreneurs looking to build their brand than social media. Growing your social media presence doesn't happen overnight, but with consistent effort and community-building, you can see strong results over time. We frequently get asked things like: What do we use for courses and email marketing? What platform do we use to find people to join our team? What tools do we use for project and task management? Where do we host and publish podcasts and how do we transcribe them? And More.  Well, we just put together the Entrepreneurs' Online Business Toolkit PDF which will give you a complete breakdown of the tools we use to run our 7-figure businesses and how we use them.
