We sat down with Devon Kuntzman, founder of Transforming Toddlerhood and author of the upcoming book by the same name, to talk about one of the most misunderstood stages of parenting—the toddler years. Devon makes a convincing case that this stage isn’t just about surviving, but about understanding the brain growth, emotional regulation, and learning how to be a tiny human with biiiiiiig feelings.

We dig into the construction zone that is the toddler brain, and how punishment actually works against their development. Finally, we discuss what it means to parent as a confident leader (think: not a pushover, not a drill sergeant.)

Are you living with a small, wildly chaotic roommate who calls you Mommy? If so, this episode might tickle your fancy.

We sat down for our second session with Dr. Sarah Oreck - reproductive psychiatrist, medical advisor for Natural Cycles fertility tracking app, and mom of three.

We tackled the mystical "6-week check-up" for postpartum moms and why it can feel overwhelming and underwhelming at the same time.

We discussed how to handle conversations about intimacy during the fourth trimester, and what Dr. Oreck would change about how our country supports moms.

We get a little salty, we get a little riled up, and we lay out the facts.

This conversation is equal parts validation (once again - no, you're not crazy) and action plan for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re carrying it all.

We sat down with Dr. Corinne Low, economist and author of the new book "Having It All", to unpack what “having it all” actually means for women today and why the BS version society sells us is impossible (and exhausting).

Corinne blends data, research, and her own lived experience to show how much of women’s time is squeezed by invisible labor, why men and women aren’t playing by the same rules at work OR at home, and how redefining success can be both liberating and life-changing.

We cover everything from why mowing the lawn is not the same as caring for a child, to the economics of “secondary childcare” (yep, doing two jobs at once - sadly, something women are all too familiar with), to how to figure out what you actually value instead of living by someone else’s script.

She gives us permission to find our OWN version of joy and helps us figure out how to experience it way more often.

We sat down with Jessica Rolph, co-founder and CEO of Lovevery, to talk about one of her favorite topics: play. Jessica has spent years digging into the science of early learning, and we yapped about how the simplest moments—turning on lights, banging pots, dropping a ball down a tube—are actually building your child’s brain in big ways.

She’s a passionate advocate for making play accessible, meaningful, and less overwhelming for parents (because who needs MORE on their plate?).

We walk through all the different stages of development and how they translate to spending quality time with your kids that actually fosters connection and growth.

Egg freezing is no longer a whispered secret or a last-ditch backup plan—and Lauren Makler, co-founder and CEO of Cofertility, is leading the charge in changing that narrative.

We sat down with Human Design expert Erin Claire Jones to talk about how this personality-meets-energy system can actually make parenting easier.

From understanding your own needs as a parent to better supporting your kids' unique personalities (yes, even the wildly independent, nap-fighting toddler), Erin shares practical ways to use human design in everyday life.

Here's what we learned in this episode:

* How knowing your design helps you parent YOUR way (not social media's way)

* The surprising connection between energy types and burnout

* Why your kiddo's design might explain their EPIC bedtime procrastination

* Why words of affirmation hit different for some of us

Whether you've never heard of Human Design (like Amy) or already deep in the charts (like Christina), this one will have you rethinking how you show up—for yourself AND your little ones.
