Cat & Nat Unfiltered

Dreams should be crazy. Wild. Let your kids dream big and just ask, "How can I support you in that dream?" As adults we want to instil what we know. Why say no to things that don't matter and probably won't exist? Logic and dreams don't go together. If we had told you our dreams 20 years ago, you would have said not a chance in hell. As parents, if we find roadblocks for their dreams then we are t...

How can your child's sensory environment impact their behaviour? We sit down with Sabrina Adair, Occupational Therapist, to discuss how this is not just an issue for toddlers and small children, but teens, tweens AND adults can be impacted by their sensory environments. How does loud atmospheres impact mood? How does sensory overload in a classroom impact how much your child wants to go to school?...

This just in, Nat would try a pierced penis. One of you wrote us anonymously to say that your husband wants to get his penis pierced and it's a hard no for you. Here is thing men, only pierce your penis if you have an extraordinary penis. Otherwise you are drawing attention to it and let's be honest, it's not that pretty to begin with. If he gets it done, send him over to us. Nat is willing to giv...

Parenting truly is a mind fuck. Teenagers need you differently as they get older. Don't take anything personally. Keeping showing up. Even when they are at their worst. It's like you are on a tight rope. You are never going to know who's not going to be ok, when they are not going to be ok and why they are not going to be ok. And can we talk about how embarrassing some of the behaviour of coaches...

How do we as moms put ourselves first when we feel like we constantly have to cater to everyone around us first?!

We have more sex advice coming your way this week! We offered some unsolicited advice about sex clubs, where not to put your sex toy, and getting your partner to munch more if he isn't lasting in the bedroom. When in doubt, munch more! And we left you with a few thoughts on penises. Happy Friday! Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone? Text us the word "Podcast" to +1 (917) 540-8715 and we'...

This one was so juicy we weren't sure if it should be a Thursday or Friday release! Perfectionist mom Ashleigh Renard took "doing it all" to the next level as the world’s worst attempted swinger. In her memoir Swing, Ashleigh shares (and bares) it all. We loved how honest Ashleigh was in telling us some of her attempts at swinging! We actually had to pick our jaws up off the floor a few times for...

So many people have seen UFO's! People actually have video and photographic proof and young Nat has a story of her close encounter. One day aliens will land. And if they land in Cat's pool we will be having drinks with them. In fact it would be Nat's dream to be abducted by aliens. She would go up (or down??) and chat with them, convince them not to cut her open for experiments and have drinks wit...

As dean at Stanford Julie Lythcott-Haims saw the damage that over parenting caused; students were lost, anxious and depressed. They didn’t know how to handle life when it didn’t go their way. In this interview she provides an alternate view of how to raise our kids to be self-sufficient. Julie is the New York Times bestselling author of the anti-helicopter parenting manifesto How to Raise an Adult...

Men this is for you, sweaty balls are a hard no. Anything sex related after working out, when your balls are sweaty = no sex/no licking/no petting/no touching. Hop in the shower, heck we can hop in with you but don't expect any action if you have sweaty balls. Also, maybe take off your socks before we have sex. These pet peeve's and more are on this Friday's sex podcast! Want our podcasts sent str...

Cat literally lives in athleisure so it made perfect sense to chat with Denise Lee, entrepreneur and founder of Alala, a self-funded multi-million dollar apparel brand that not only brings joy to women through sophisticated, high quality clothing, but also seeks to advance dialogue around body positivity and diversity. Denise left her family and moved halfway around the world, from Singapore to Ne...

This week Nat and Teddy watched The Secret and we went down a rabbit hole. It's about the Law of Attractions and the idea that by using your emotions and visualization, you can make your dreams and desires come true. There is no scientific proof and there are many critics out but Nat is a big believer and gives us a few examples of how she has used it in the past. It's a way of thinking and believ...

You're going to want to bookmark this one! This weeks Monday snippet is all about co-dependency & perfectionism in parenting....or as the New York Times is now calling it "Snow Plow Parenting". How do you know when you're too involved? How do you know when the right time to let them launch is? When should we let them fail vs. when should we be helping them? Alana Carvalho gives us all the answ...

Mom, wife, style-icon, influencer, and entrepreneur, Whitney Port seems to be doing it all! We fell in love with Whitney's relatable attitude and unique style on one of the OG of reality shows, The Hills and were thrilled to sit down with her in LA. We chatted about her husband's crush on a reality star coming true, her experience "acting" on The Hills and The City, trying to get her son into pres...

When we are on social media you kinda only see us from the t!ts up. It's been a while since you've seen a recent full body image so when people say that Nat has lost so much weight, fast , it's actually not true. It has been a loooong and slow process. Nat's weight loss journey has been over 6 months. Weight loss is boring. And slow. Everyone wants a fast secret. Go easy on yourself! Move more, dr...

Our kids are living in a world of technology that parents may have no idea how to navigate or may be fearful of. How can parents help set healthy online gaming and technology habits with their children? Self professed former video game addict turned international motivational speaker Cam Adair and Jordan Shapiro PhD, international speaker, consultant and father parenting i...

We've been hearing stories about sex clubs lately and we think it's about time we go do some "research". Not with our husbands, just the two of us! This week we give advise to two callers, one who has caught feelings for someone that is not her husband and another who doesn't like it when her husband goes downtown. We also get sidetracked thinking about how animals clean themselves after going to...

Her hilarious and maybe too real takes on motherhood can be found @newmomwhodis and @j...

This week we talk about the move towards more homeschooling and the alternatives to traditional schooling. The downside to alternative learning is that it almost always comes with a cost. There should be more alternative ways of learning that are free. We also talk about the confusing conversation surrounding our kids and technology. We told them to use their phones to connect socially during covi...

We sat down with Dr. Nicholas Wester's for an incredibly important conversation, not just for parents who find themselves in a situation where their child may be self injuring, but for all parents. As we learnt in this interview, the way you react when you find out your child has been self harming can critically change the trajectory of your child's next actions, so why not prepare yourself with h...

This week we sat down with Humble The Poet (Kanwer Singh) to talk about love. Everyone wants love and everything we do is in pursuit of it. Humble the Poet is a Canadian-born rapper, spoken-word artist, poet, internationally bestselling author, and former elementary school teacher. What began as reciting spoken word poetry in coffee shops to impress girls evolved into a creative adventure that has...

Confidence starts at such a young age. We don't put enough weight into the conversation so that as they age, they don't lose that. We are trying to catch up as adults rather than protect them when they are young. Teach them how to navigate friendships when the fck up. Friends won't always agree with you. They won't always like you. That's a hard thing to understand. We alter ourselves in order to...
