    Ep21 The Sunday Scaries
    Feb 15 2023
    This week, we talk about the Sunday Scaries, or what some of us know as existential dread. Although existential crises were only supposed to be something we go through at certain stages of our lives, it seems nowadays we are having this sense of anxiety every single day. We take a look at what causes the Sunday Scaries and the shocking statistics about this phenomenon in the United States vs. the rest of the world. Have you experienced the Sunday Scaries in your life? Join the discussion over on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/anonymousmom

  • Ep19 Perimenopause

    Ep19 Perimenopause
    Feb 1 2023
    This week, we discuss perimenopause. While menopause is talked about openly in the media, we found that not many people are talking about perimenopause and some of us don't even know what it is.  The symptoms of perimenopause can be unbearable and last for a decade, so why aren't we talking about it?  Join the discussion over on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/anonymousmom

    Ep18 Alone Time
    Jan 25 2023
    This week, we discuss the importance of alone time. Topics include: the benefits of alone time, how to know when it might be time for some solitude, and examples of things you can do to enjoy time away from other people. We both know how hard it is to find time to be alone, especially as parents, but it’s way more important for our physical and mental health than we realized. What do you do when you finally get some time to yourself? Join the discussion over on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/anonymousmom

  • Ep15 Breastfeeding

    Ep15 Breastfeeding
    Jan 4 2023
    In this week’s episode, we discuss breastfeeding.  Many of us hope it will come naturally, and for some of us it does. But, for many moms it doesn’t.  Between our baby not latching to not being able to produce enough breast milk, we stress and wonder why we can’t do what is supposed to be natural.  We talk about the stress of being a new mom, and how that stress can impact breastfeeding. We also discuss the health benefits of breastfeeding for mom and baby.  We would love to hear your breastfeeding journey and if stress was an issue for you.  Join the discussion over on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/anonymousmom
