I'm back after a brief holiday break and I've got some exciting updates to share. I realized that the direction of my podcast and coaching work wasn't quite aligning with my passions anymore. So, I've decided to make a significant shift.

I've been feeling unfulfilled with the general therapy and couples coaching I've been doing for the past year and a half. After some introspection and with the help of a new business coach, I've decided to focus specifically on married moms, which is where my heart truly lies.

I'm rebranding my podcast from "Child Proof Your Marriage" to "Married Moms Take Control." This new focus will delve into the multifaceted roles of married moms, emphasizing the importance of nurturing the woman beneath the mom and wife roles.

In this new chapter, I plan to offer solo episodes again, aiming for concise, 20-30 minute segments that tackle the personal transformations married moms can achieve. This includes boosting self-confidence, improving communication, setting boundaries, and finding personal fulfillment amidst the daily juggle of family life.

If you're not a married mom, don't worry – much of the content will still be relevant to you, but my target audience is shifting. I'm thrilled about this change and can't wait to see where this new journey takes us. Stay tuned for the first episode of the rebranded podcast coming soon, and make sure you're on my email list for updates. Thanks for sticking with me, and I hope you'll join me on this exciting new adventure!

In this solo episode, I reflect on the emotional challenges we face as parents when we can’t shield our children from life’s difficulties. Drawing from my own experiences, like my son’s struggles with math and our family’s ordeal with our dog’s emergency surgery, I dive into the delicate balance of supporting our kids while managing our own emotions. I share how important it is to foster resilience—not just in our children as they learn to navigate hardships, but also in ourselves as we sit with the discomfort of not having all the answers. I offer practical advice, including finding creative solutions, seeking outside help, and giving our kids the space to fully process their feelings. Most importantly, I encourage grace and self-compassion for all of us who are doing our best as parents.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Michelle Massarini, a licensed therapist turned weight loss behavior coach. Michelle has taken her expertise as a clinician and applied it to helping women tackle weight loss in a way that's all about behavior change and mindset. We talked about how weight loss isn’t just about diets and exercise—it’s about creating sustainable changes that align with who you are and what you truly need.

Michelle shared her journey, from being a spin instructor in college to struggling with her own weight and discovering how to blend behavioral techniques with health and fitness. Her approach focuses on building trust with yourself, reimagining routines, and making weight loss something that works for you, not something dictated by external rules or fads.

We also got into how society and self-judgment play a role in weight struggles and how changing behaviors starts with redefining your relationship with yourself. Michelle emphasized the importance of self-compassion and how weight loss isn’t just about what you’re eating but also how you’re living. She even gave examples of how these transformations can ripple into relationships, boundaries, and personal growth.

My sweet 12 year old son, Tristan, joined me for this episode! We had a great conversation as a follow up to my solo episode last week about 'Navigating Difficult Conversations with Kid." Tristan shared insights from his perspective as a child, emphasizing that children are sensitive to parents' emotions and honesty. We talked about how if parents approach conversations angrily or without understanding, it can damage trust and communication. Tristan also highlights that parents need to show respect and maintain a strong connection with their children for these conversations to be effective. The conversation touches on topics like handling grief, disciplinary issues, and stressful news, with a focus on parents being intentional, managing their own emotions, and setting an example for their kids. You will love this conversation.

In this solo episode, I’m taking on a topic you guys asked for: tackling tough talks with kids. I’m breaking it down into two parts. First, I’ll be sharing a parent’s and therapists view on why these conversations can be tricky, along with some real-life stories and tips for handling anything from sensitive topics to those out-of-nowhere questions. I cover the importance of validating kids' feelings, staying honest, managing those big emotions, and how these chats can help build trust and connection. Then, in part two, my 12-year-old son will jump in to give his take on how these talks feel from a kid’s side.

My guest today is Natalie McCabe, a parenting coach. Most, if not all parents have used technology to entertain our kids, and of course, to entertain ourselves. But how often do we stop to notice how our moods are impacted by the use of technology. Technology is a part of our lives, and will always be, so trying to do without (for ourselves or our children) is just not going to happen. So instead, we need to learn how to set boundaries and limits, and recognize what we need to do to manage the behavioral or emotional pitfalls that come with using technology.

Make sure to catch my first episode with Natalie- Episode 119- Navigating Parenting and Self-Car.

Solo Episode today! In this episode, I delve into my experiences managing anxiety and the need for control while away from home. Accompanying my husband in Houston for his graduate program, I reflect on the meticulous planning and challenges I faced while leaving our 12-year-old son with his grandmother. I explore how this experience highlighted my struggles with letting go and trusting my support systems, as well as my son's growing independence. I discuss the balance between control and flexibility in daily routines, sharing personal anecdotes and emphasizing the importance of open communication in relationships. Addressing anxieties related to parenting, household chores, and partnerships, I aim to show how creating effective systems and allowing others to take responsibility can lead to smoother family functioning and personal growth.
