EP514. We're bringing back one of the most popular episodes (and topics) of The Mom Room... and for good reason! In this replay, I'm diving into the topic of sleep divorce, aka why my husband and I sleep in separate rooms and why it's the best thing ever. I share when it started, what led to the decision, and how it's completely changed the way I sleep (spoiler: it's amazing). Let's be real, once you have kids, sleep becomes gold, and I'll do whatever I can to protect it. If you've ever wondered if separate sleeping arrangements could work for your relationship, this one's for you. Hit play, and let's normalize doing what works for rest, sanity, and the sake of your REM cycles. Sweet dreams! Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep509. The Mom Room favourite guest, Dr. Tanya Cotler is back to talk with Renee about raising emotionally resilient kids—especially boys—in a world that often discourages vulnerability.

EP504. In this episode of The Mom Room, Renee gets real about how freaking hard it is to just relax. Even on a day with no to-do list, the guilt creeps in, and suddenly you're reorganizing the junk drawer instead of lying on the couch like you promised yourself. She reflects on growing up around women who were always on the go—cleaning, cooking, doing, achieving—and how that hustle mentality is tough to shake. Renee opens up about her mission to get better at doing absolutely nothing on purpose (and not feeling bad about it). Plus, she recounts her emotional meltdown at the movie theatre during the new Lilo & Stitch—yes, she cried, and no, it wasn't just the nostalgia. Grab a blanket and join Renee as she tries to make peace with rest, tears, and turtle-shell recliners. Learn more about your ad choices.
