IT WAS GONNA BE A REALLY GOOD REALITY SHOW, FAM, WE SWEAR TO GODDESS! Ugh, in 2010, Lifetime TV ordered 8 episodes of a show called PI Moms. And it was supposed to be just as badass as it sounds: A group of women kicking ass, taking names, and solving crimes. The only problem is that WE CAN'T HAVE ANYTHING GOOD, and so it turns out, the whole enterprise was being run by a guy who not only didn't actually care about the show, but was also BUYING AND THEN SELLING DRUGS FROM A DIRTY COP, annnnnnnnd a completely different egomaniac dude was trying to derail the whole thing because the producers wouldn't make a show called PI MOMS ABOUT HIM. Like, you really can't make this stuff up. And there's a reason this (amazing) series is called Trainwreck. Ugh. ANYWAY GET READY TO HEAR US SCREAM FOR AN HOUR (sorry for yelling).

Hi mama, Get my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨today! It is officially December… the busiest, most magical, and mentally overloaded month of the entire year. And that's exactly why today kicks off a brand-new mini-series designed to help you reflect, realign, and reset before the new year. You're juggling school schedules, work deadlines, holiday magic-making, laundry that multiplies in the dark… and deep down, you're craving more intention in how you show up in your life. This episode will help you slow down, make space for yourself, and prepare for who you're becoming.

This week on Mom Group Chat, we are officially in our December era.We're recapping everything from the past couple of weeks — starting with Whitney flying down to Tampa, the two of us getting to spend time together IRL, and our surreal moment of being featured on Daytime TV (!!). Candace also shares all the details from her recent NYC trip — the cozy vibes, the food, the friends, the fall magic — and why the city always feels like a reset button.We're also talking about how the holiday chaos is starting to creep in… the schedules, the school events, the to-do lists, the mental gymnastics. And, of course, we get into the very real realization that our bodies can no longer keep up with every holiday drink, treat, and festive outing the way they used to. (One spiked hot chocolate and we're done for.)It's a catch-up episode full of stories, laughs, and that “ok good, it's not just me” energy we all need this time of year.Keep up with the Moms and join the conversation on our socials:

Efter årsskiftet skal du betale moms af dine spinningtimer, din yogasession eller danseundervisning. EU-domstolen har vurderet, at køretimer og svømmeundervisning ikke er momsfritaget - og det har fået regeringen til at rette ind og indføre moms på undervisnings- og fritidsaktiviteter udbudt af private aktører. Og det kan gå hen at blive dyrt, både for forbrugeren, virksomhederne og folkesundheden. I dagens P1 Debat spørger vi: Hvilke konsekvenser vil det få for de fitnessinstruktører, yoga undervisere og den danske folkesundhed? Kan en momsnedsættelse eller et fradrag forhindre danskerne i at afmelde deres spinningtimer? Og blander EU sig for meget i dansk lovgivning?

Aston Villa return from a Europa League win against Young Boys with plenty to argue about. The xG police have spent the week sounding alarms, but MOMS explains why the conversation around underperformance is nonsense. Villa are evolving, not chancing their luck. Emery has shifted his side toward controlled mid-range and long-range shooting patterns, and the data heads have not caught up yet.The episode also looks back at the Young Boys win and the question the habit of Villa looking a little foggy after European nights. With two-point Wolves up next, it is exactly the fixture that can trip a team that has not fully reset. There is talk of a lack of sharpness, with Ollie Watkins needing a spark and the reality of winter football when injuries and workload begin to stack.Along the way the show looks at Premier League's new Squad Cost Ratio idea, the odd decisions coming out of Sky's TikTok department and Ronaldo's mystery discount ban. It is the new format of the show, built around more stories, more football insight and more of the MOMS irreverence that cuts through the noise.UTVGET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicPhillip Shaw - @prsgameMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

We have a fun and little different kind of episode for you today. Katy emailed us after her great friend and fellow DIAH mama Katie McCormick (from episode 73) shared the podcast with her. Katy thanked us for what we're up to with the show. As a “non-mom” (though she plans to be in the future), she's always been fascinated by pregnancy and birth. She's been exploring the option of home birth for herself when that time comes.  So we figured...let's get on the phone, hit record and see what happens!  We believe that what Katy's doing is an awesome example. If women who are not yet mothers are interested in exploring their future options, educating themselves, having conversations with other women at different stages of motherhood, then that means we have a lot more women empowered, confident and supported in their decisions. We are all for that! This doesn't mean all women need to be doing this. It's whatever works for you. We would just like to see more positive energy around conversations of pregnancy and birth, regardless of what phase of it someone is in.  So Katy shares with us some of her thoughts on why home birth would be a good fit for her. For one, she likes to take the most natural route possible with things. She's also a more private person, and looks at birth as a very sacred time.  We also talk about how resources like the Doing It At Home podcast have helped, supported and informed on home birth related topics.  So if you are not pregnant yet, but considering home birth as an option, this is a perfect episode for you!

Finding Peace in Overwhelm: A Christian Guide to Anxiety, Burnout, and Trusting God Through Hard Seasons (Faith-Based Encouragement, Holistic Healing, Christian Mental Health) Introduction: What You'll Learn in This Episode If you've been feeling anxious, numb, exhausted, or spiritually drained, this episode is for you. We dive deep into Christian mental health, holistic healing, and what it really looks like to trust God when life feels heavy. You'll learn: Why seasons of overwhelm are normal — and biblical The identity trap many Christian women fall into What Scripture teaches about endurance, grief, and human weakness How Jesus handled anxiety, agony, and the weight of His calling This episode is especially for Christian women who feel overextended, weary, or like they're “not enough” — moms, high achievers, and women navigating transitions, burnout, or identity struggles. Episode Overview In this vulnerable conversation, we explore Scripture, real-life hardship, emotional healing, and how God strengthens us through every season — even when we feel like we're drowning. From James 1 to Ecclesiastes 3 to Jesus sweating drops of blood in Luke 22, this episode gives a deeply honest look at pain, perseverance, and faith. ⏱️ Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 — A Prayer for Thanksgiving Week & A Needed Reset A heartfelt encouragement for the holiday season plus an invitation to reset your energy through a faith-rooted workshop. 00:53 — Why James 1:2–4 Feels So Hard (But Necessary) The tension between hating trials yet wanting the maturity they produce. 01:23 — Generational Strength & Why We Can't Shield Ourselves From Hardship Reflecting on family, resilience, and how God grows us through challenges. 02:22 — Soul Care Class: When God Brings Hidden Things to the Surface A behind-the-scenes look at how spiritual growth often exposes old wounds. 03:20 — Job Loss, Homeschooling, and God's Provision The rollercoaster journey of jobs, layoffs, and trusting God for timing and flexibility. 04:19 — A “Perfect” Job That Turned Into Overwhelm When work-from-home turns into work-all-the-time. 04:43 — Humiliation, Pressure, and Feeling “Not Enough” A moment that exposed deep identity struggles. 05:40 — The False Identity of Performance How tying your worth to productivity quietly destroys your peace. 07:38 — When Scripture and Self-Care Don't Lift You Out of the Funk Honest reflections on depression, anxiety, numbness, and spiritual dryness. 08:36 — The Mask People Wear at Church & Why You're Not Alone The pressure to appear okay when you're not. 09:36 — “Just Keep Showing Up”: Encouragement for Moms and the Weary The small but powerful act of continuing to show up every day. 10:06 — Sleepless in Seattle, Tom Hanks, and the Power of Just Breathing A surprising emotional parallel to grief and perseverance. 11:03 — Ecclesiastes 3: There Is a Season for Everything Why your pain is temporary and purposeful. 12:32 — Jesus in Gethsemane: The Ultimate Example of Agony and Surrender The humanity and anguish of Christ — and why it matters for your suffering. 14:55 — Your Pain is Seen, Your Season Will Not Last Forever Final encouragement: Jesus understands your pain, and this will pass. Key Takeaways 1. Hard seasons are part of spiritual growth. God uses trials to strengthen us, deepen endurance, and strip away false identities. 2. Your worth is not tied to productivity or performance. Christian women often carry silent pressure to “hold everything together,” but Scripture gives you permission to rest and be human. 3. Emotional burnout is not a sign of failure. Feeling numb, anxious, or overwhelmed isn't a spiritual weakness — it's a sign you're carrying too much alone. 4. Even Jesus felt agony so intense He sweat “like drops of blood.” Your emotional and physical symptoms of stress are not a shock to Him. He understands the full weight of human suffering. 5. Seasons of pain don't last forever. Ecclesiastes reminds us that life moves in God-ordained rhythms. Your current season is temporary. 6. Just keep showing up. One breath at a time. One day at a time. Faithfulness is less about perfection and more about returning to Jesus again and again. Scriptures Mentioned James 1:2–4 — steadfastness through trials Ecclesiastes 3 — seasons of life Luke 22:39–44 — Jesus in Gethsemane, sweating like drops of blood Call to Action: Reset Your Energy With God at the Center If you're feeling depleted, overwhelmed, or spiritually dry, now is the time to reset with Jesus — not January 1st. ✨ Grab the “Reset Your Energy” Workshop A gentle, faith-rooted, 50-minute experience to help you breathe again, calm your nervous system, refresh your spirit, and restore peace.

10 Gratitude Habits For Happy Moms.  Motherhood is a beautiful blend of noise, needs, and never-ending responsibilities. Some mornings start before the sun rises, with the dishwasher humming and kids already calling your name. And before you know it, the weight of the day settles on your shoulder.  But gratitude has a quiet way of lifting the heaviness.  Not by removing the chaos, but by softening our hearts in the middle of it.  This episode of Equipped To Be with Connie Albers I focus on ten simple gratitude habits that can shift the atmosphere of your home and help moms fell lighter and more grounded.  Motherhood will always be full, but gratitude helps you carry it with a little more peace, joy, and perspective. When you slow down enough to notice God's goodness, even in the middle of everyday chaos, your whole home feels the difference.  Which habit do you want to start with today? Where did you see God this week?  What "small joy" did you notice today? "Gratitude isn't denying the hard moments, it's discovering where  God's goodness is quietly waiting for you in them."

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “I love the holidays… and I kind of hate them?” If you're parenting teens or an empty nester, this tension is so normal — we crave connection and magic, but we're overloaded with pressure and the emotional labor we've been conditioned to carry. In this episode, I'm breaking down why we feel responsible for everyone's happiness, why that creates resentment and anxiety, and how shifting your mindset from managing others' emotions to owning your own can completely change your experience. You'll hear how our society trains moms to outsource our emotional peace to how everyone else behaves — and why that leaves us exhausted, especially during the holidays. And I'll show you a simpler, more grounded way to show up as the mom and woman you want to be, with healthier boundaries, less guilt, and more authentic connection. If you're ready to stop carrying pressure that was never yours, feel more calm and purposeful, and create a holiday season that feels human instead of perfect, this episode is for you. Tune in, my friend. You have more power than you think.

In this inspiring episode, Nikki Sims and Andrew Jackson sit down with two of Barbell Logic's most recognizable names: Nikki Berman (Director of Client Experience) and Coach Bekah Creek (PT and longtime BLOC coach). Together, they dive deep into what strength training for moms really looks like—during pregnancy, postpartum, deployments, sleepless nights, and every chaotic season in between. Nikki shares the full arc of her journey: from chasing "skinny" through extreme dieting and cardio, to discovering barbell training, to becoming a mother of four and finding her strongest, most capable self along the way. Her candid stories—including training through nausea, the realities of relaxin, managing back-to-back pregnancies, and an unexpected home birth—offer a rare, empowering look at motherhood through the lens of strength. Coach Bekah walks through the coaching side: how to modify programming for pregnant or postpartum clients, when to push, when to pull back, and why the marathon mindset of "something is better than nothing" can be transformational for busy moms. Together, they illustrate how strength training can anchor a woman through the most demanding phases of life. Whether you're a mother, a future mother, a coach working with pregnant/postpartum clients, or simply someone looking for hope and consistency, this conversation highlights the resilience and adaptability that define strength training for moms. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why strength matters so much for pregnant and postpartum women How to modify training through each trimester The surprising benefits of tonnage-based and RPE-based programming How to navigate fatigue, nausea, sleep deprivation, and childcare Why "all or nothing" breaks moms—and how to replace it with a sustainable mindset The physical and emotional realities of postpartum recovery How coaching support changes everything for new moms The story behind Nikki's unplanned, fast home birth  Why taking up space—not shrinking—is the real goal How strength training helps moms show up better for their kids and themselves PS: Get early access to Black Friday Sales > https://bit.ly/3LmWhx2 - Save 50% on Online Coaching and Nutrition - Save up to 50% on the Barbell Academy - Gift Strength and get a bonus month   Connect with the hosts Niki on Instagram Andrew on Instagram Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram Podcast Webpage Barbell Logic on Facebook Or email podcast@barbell-logic.com

What if the burnout, overwhelm, and self-sacrifice so many women carry isn't personal failure, but evidence of a system that was never designed for them?

The holidays are here, and before the chaos kicks in, we wanted to sit down for a cozy reset with you. Think of this as the pep talk we all need—the kind you can take with you on a walk, a drive, or while you hide in the pantry for a minute of quiet. Today we're sharing the mindset shifts and simple strategies that help us move through the holidays with more ease, compassion, and actual enjoyment.We talk about why we both love one big open-invite approach to Thanksgiving, what it's like hosting when your family has complicated dynamics, and how to offer grace to your partner if they come from a divorced family. Abby opens up about growing through the disappointment of people not showing up, and Amy shares a grounding reminder for anyone juggling multiple households.We also dig into the lighter stuff—like food. Hosting doesn't mean you have to do it all. Press the easy button, buy the pie, ask guests to bring what they need, or pack your own if you're visiting. The goal isn't perfection; it's presence.And since tricky conversations happen, we share a few simple phrases you can keep in your back pocket when topics start going sideways. Getting your partner on the same page helps too, even if it doesn't always work perfectly.As moms of three who often have 15+ people in our homes, we also talk about stepping away when you need a breather. Whether it's a quick reset or heading to bed early—give yourself permission. Taking care of yourself helps you enjoy the holidays more, not less.Most of all, we hope this episode helps you craft the best holiday season you can have. And if it's not magical? That's okay too. Moms deserve joy this time of year, whatever that looks like for you.LINKS AND RESOURCES:LMNT: Free Sample Pack with purchase:  drinkLMNT.com/HERSELF Let's connect!HERSELF INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/herselfpodcastMEET AMY: http://instagram.com/ameskieferMEET ABBY: http://instagram.com/abbyrosegreenThis episode was brought to you by the Pivot Ball Change Network.

"Baby Jesus was an amazing surprise to the world on Christmas morning, and gifts under the tree remind us of that wondrous gift each year." - Regina Doman Summary Mothers create the environment of the home by what we allow in our house, how we arrange our home, and where things are kept. We are teaching our children all the time, not just by what we say and do, but the home that we create for our families.  We communicate what we value and what we want our children to learn by the "stuff" in our home.  Moms have to be thoughtful and intentional about this.  Listen into this conversation that Alicia has with her sister Regina Doman, author and speaker, about the questions she asks herself before buying items for her family for Christmas.  You can hear more from Regina by following her at reginadoman.substack.com  Key Takeaways Questions to ask yourself before bringing something into your home…..  Is it beautiful? Everyone sees beauty differently! Is this toy annoying?  If you enjoy a toy, your child may too! Does it teach the child how the world works?  Children learn to trust their senses through natural materials. How long will it last?  Is it durable and how long will the child play with it?  Can this child care for this toy? Make sure it is developmentally appropriate What are the limitations of our home? Make sure it fits your lifestyle and the space you have in your home.   Couple Discussion Questions Are we intentional about the toys and items that we have in our home for the kids?   Which of the above questions do I feel strongly about?  Let's discuss this.
