Sometimes you just need to catch up with your internet besties.

This week, Maya and Sarah are keeping things light with a laid-back summer catch-up full of laughs, parenting chaos, and the kind of conversations that happen after a long day at the pool.

From playing a hilarious round of Would You Rather to debating the best (and most questionable) ways to survive the hottest months of the year, this episode is packed with relatable moments. Maya shares her hard-earned tips to surviving the pool with more than one kid, while both hosts swap stories from life lately and the beautiful mess that is parenting during summer break.

They also tackle an important reminder about water safety, because while summer is all about making memories, keeping our little ones safe always comes first. And because no Doing It All episode is complete without a little pop culture, Maya and Sarah reveal which current Love Island cast members their toddlers would be—and let's just say the comparison is almost too accurate.

Whether you're driving to camp drop-off, packing the pool bag for the third time this week, or hiding in the pantry with a popsicle, this episode is your reminder that none of us have summer figured out—and that's half the fun.

Grab your sunscreen, refill your emotional support water bottle, and come hang out with us.

This week, Maya and Sarah sit down with Dr. Sara Bloom, physician, maternal health advocate, and founder of Mavie, a wellness platform created to support mothers long after the six-week postpartum checkup.

After experiencing motherhood herself, Dr. Bloom began questioning why so many women are expected to power through chronic exhaustion, stress, and burnout—and why those experiences have become so normalized. What followed was a conversation that every mom who's ever said "I'm fine" while running on fumes needs to hear.

Together, we discuss:

• The massive gap between postpartum care and long-term maternal wellness
• Why so many mothers feel depleted and why we're told that's just part of the job
• The pressure to "bounce back" and do it all
• What it actually means to prioritize your health when you barely have time to shower
• The concept of "microwellness" and why small habits often matter more than big overhauls
• How to cut through the endless stream of wellness advice online and find information you can trust

We also get into the wellness trends Dr. Bloom is loving right now, the trend she wishes we'd collectively retire, and why self-care has become so much bigger than face masks and bubble baths.

This is a conversation about motherhood, identity, health, burnout, and giving ourselves permission to need care, too. Whether you're deep in the postpartum years or simply trying to function on too little sleep and too many responsibilities, this episode is a reminder that feeling better doesn't have to start with doing more.

This week, Maya and Sarah sit down with sports and culture reporter Justin Tinsley for one of our most honest conversations yet about life in the sandwich generation.

While many know Justin for his thoughtful writing on the intersections of sports, race, music, and culture—or for his book It Was All a Dream: Biggie and the World That Made Him—today's conversation focuses on the work happening off the page. Justin shares what it's like to be a work-from-home dad of two young children while also helping care for his mother as she navigates Alzheimer's disease.

Together, we discuss:

• The daily logistics and emotional realities of caregiving

• Parenting while processing grief in real time

• What people misunderstand about Alzheimer's and caregiving

• The invisible mental load of holding multiple generations together

And because this is Doing It All, the conversation eventually takes a sharp turn into pop culture. We chat about the joy (and stress) of the Knicks making a Finals run, spiral into all things Summer House, discuss Justin's favorite Real Housewives season, unpack Ray J's latest venture, and share our thoughts on the endlessly fascinating Taylor Frankie Paul saga.

This is a conversation about responsibility, family, identity, exhaustion, and finding joy in the middle of it all. Whether you're parenting young kids, caring for aging loved ones, or simply trying to keep all the plates spinning, this one is for you!
