Bad Wives Club

We are picking back up with answering more of your questions! We give our opinions and how we handled seeing family and friends during the newborn stage, tips transitioning from one to two kids, and how long it took us to feel ourselves again (mentally and physically) postpartum. That question leads us into a good discussion about how we are supposed to change and evolve over time, and others sayi...

First off, some exciting news that Booty By Brabants is opening up a new store in the North Shore! We hear all about this amazing new location, so don't forget to check it out this Spring. We got so many amazing questions, so we're answering a bunch over a couple episodes. Today we talk about how you can make "wife" friends, opinions on the Karen Read murder trail, what our favorite staple pieces...

We’re done with the era of mom guilt. In this episode, we're breaking up with the pressure to “do it all” and finally tossing out the guilt that comes with taking time for ourselves. Whether it’s chasing career goals, running a business, hitting the gym solo, or just sitting in silence with a coffee (without anyone touching you) you deserve it, mama. Society might’ve handed us a guilt trip, but we...

Happy Thursday BWC! We're frazzled this AM with the never easy task of moms leaving the house - of course Libby has a story of what just transpired before recording started, which evolves into screen time, Ipads, rough play amongst boys, and sibling relationships.  We talk about that not-so-new parenting style "FAFO" (F*ck around and find out!) and agree that none of us are the most gentle parents...

How many stories can we tell in 30 min?! ALOT. Liz survived solo-parenting all while her husband was on a "work trip" in Vegas, following his every move. With a solid community of moms around her, she not only had many helping hands, but she also was thrown a curve ball (in the best way!). She tells us a really heart-warming story about her son being brave and confident, dealing with friendship dy...

We are BACK!! After an unanticipated nine month pause, we are ready to come back as 2 peas on the pod. We want to give a HUGE thank you to our best friend Laura for starting the BWC. She hops on at the start of this episode to give her life update on this next season of hers. The past nine months brought some major changes in all of our lives, which we get into throughout the episode. The rest of...

A little BWC update 💜we are going to take a short break from the podcast, but we will be back before you know it!  We love sharing our light hearted, funny and relatable mom conversations with you all but right now it doesn’t feel right as we grieve a recent, very tragic loss & our hearts are elsewhere. Thank you all so much for your understanding and support – we appreciate you and will be b...

We're baaaack with Jenny B for part two! This time we switch gears back to the the mom talk, kicking off with the thoughts of having a FIFTH kid and how our society doesn't produce the big families like the good old days. Unlike the three of us, Jenny is a stay at home mom, so it's really cool to hear her perspective, and it's true... the grass isn't always greener on the other side. Liz asks Jenn...

Jenny Bee, one of the baddest baddies out there is back again! But this time this mom of 4 is talking about the end of an era.

We have Chef Jeff filling in for Laura today! We thought this would be a perfect opportunity for the original 3 musketeers to sit down and reflect on where it all began with Liz & Jeff, and the shifts in their relationship over the past 10 years. We take you back to where they first met, how their relationship took form, and how Libby was their third wheel along for the ride! Libby puts them both...

We dish out some tips for our future brides, and Libby shares the best piece of advice she received from her Dad.  Do weddings need to be extravagant? Do we need this fairytale wedding or does that become less important...

In the past we've talked about love languages, but we just recently read the book "The 5 Love Languages of Children" by Dr. Gary Chapman and Dr. Ross Campbell and we think it is a MUST read for parents. We learned all about what each love language means, how to figure out which one is your child’s specific language, and how us as parents can tweak our behaviors to connect with our kids on a deeper...
