Bucket list episode here! I got to interview Renee Reina (@reneereina_) of @themomroompodcast. She's got her Phd in psychology, and is just an all around amazing, imperfect, vulnerable human! I managed to hold my shit together and not completely lose it. She's just as cool and real as you would imagine from her Tiktoks and instagram. We touched on all of her favourite topics, which happen to be so...

Friends, this one goes off track, I am going to warn you!  But its a good one! We go back and forth between whether Sarah is done or not. Talk about the arguments we make with ourselves, the glorifying of the newborn baby days (we KNOW its hard, but just sign us up for Netflix and baby snuggles!). The reason why we may be craving a damn break. We know you love a girl chat, and that's totally...

No one ever told me… What do you wish you knew? What did you have no idea was coming? What do you think people need to be prepared for that isn’t being said to them? That breastfeeding is hard?

We have wanted to cover this topic for a long time. Being the age we are, cannabis has not been legal for the majority of our lives. To be honest we had to forcibly remove our judgey-pants, and preconceived notions and unlearn to move forward. Well that we did. We cried, we laughed, we learned. This is one of my favourite episodes. Grab a coffee, or a cannabis product and lets dive deep!  We...
