Mom Group Chat

Mom Group Chat is a podcast for moms who are not perfect, but trying their best. We’re three best friends who have spent the past two years blowing up each other's phones for honest conversation around how our lives took a full 180 in the blink of an eye. We’re tired, we’re covered in yogurt, we’re obsessed with our baby’s chubby cheeks, we’re happiest alone in the car, and we’re trying to make sense of it all in our group chat.

Join us as we take the conversation from the phone to the mic and dive into topics like mom guilt, family dynamics, pregnancy and fertility, healthy coping mechanisms 🧘🏻‍♀️, not so healthy coping mechanisms 🍷, female friendships 💞, trying to find one *single* pair of jeans that work for your postpartum body, and so much more.

We’ll have guests, experts, and hear from our community because it takes a village, ya’ll. Bring your sense of humor because if you’re not laughing through motherhood, you’re probably crying. The only people that understand what it’s really like to be a mom, are other moms. So, hand the kids to dad for a few and welcome to our Mom Group Chat.

Mom Group Chat - EP 95: Getting Your Spark Back
play

05/13/25 • 44 min

This week on Mom Group Chat, we’re talking about something so many moms wonder but rarely say out loud: How do I get my spark back after having babies?

We’re getting real about:

  • Whether there’s a timeline for feeling like yourself again (spoiler: nope)
  • How different it was for each of us after each pregnancy
  • What it actually looked like when the spark started to return — and the small things that helped
  • Why you can’t thrive until you’re done surviving — and how to know when that shift starts to happen

This isn’t about bouncing back. It’s about coming back to yourself — slowly, messily, and on your own terms.

Whether you’re in the thick of the newborn fog or finally feeling the clouds part, this episode is your reminder that the spark does come back — and you’re not alone while you wait for it.

Mom Group Chat - EP 94: May Catch Up

EP 94: May Catch Up

Mom Group Chat

play

05/06/25 • 54 min

It’s our May catch-up, and we’re covering everything from disco balls to rogue body washes.

Whitney kicks things off with a full recap of her Disco Cinco bash — she’s officially in her Nat Note era, complete with themed drinks, custom outfits, and a timeline that could rival a wedding. Meanwhile, Candace shares her unexpected UTI journey (spoiler: it all started with a new body wash... what is happening?!), plus a recap of her girls trip for a friend’s birthday — which included a very aggressive attempt to drink around the world at Epcot 🍻🌎

Oh, and she’s also attempting to plan a Disney trip, but mostly just spiraling in excitement without a game plan.

Tune in for laughs, overshares, and the kind of chaos that only happens in the group chat.

Mom Group Chat - EP 99: Potty Training Pt. 1
play

06/10/25 • 44 min

This week on Mom Group Chat, we're diving into one of our most requested topics ever: potty training. And here's the honest truth—neither of us are experts. We're still very much in it, figuring things out as we go.

In Part 1 of this two-part series, we’re sharing our very relaxed, real-life approach to potty training—what’s worked, what hasn’t, and how we’re managing to keep our expectations low (and our sanity somewhat intact). From how we knew it was time to start, to the accidents, regressions, and general unpredictability... we’re talking about it all.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, behind, or just totally stressed about potty training, this episode is your permission slip to take a deep breath and let your kid lead the way. You are not alone in this!

👉 Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll be answering all your burning potty questions and sharing the tips, tricks, and hacks you all sent in!

This week we’re joined by the effortlessly cool Amanda Jones Vaughan for a real and refreshing conversation on motherhood, grief, style, and everything in between. Amanda opens up about choosing to have a fourth baby, how this pregnancy feels different, and what life looks like after the loss of her mom. We talk about giving ourselves grace in motherhood, especially during the hard seasons, and how to redefine self-care beyond the surface-level stuff.

We also dive into career pivots, letting go of hustle, and her ever-evolving sense of style—including what she’s loving for summer and how her approach to shopping has changed.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Navigating pregnancy and grief at the same time
  • The “grass is greener” trap and learning to focus on the good
  • What it really looks like to take care of yourself
  • Amanda’s style evolution and favorite places to shop right now

Mom Group Chat - EP 76: Would You Rather?
play

12/31/24 • 56 min

The end of the year is here, and let’s be real—our brains are fried. So, in true Mom Group Chat fashion, we’re leaning into the chaos with a fun and lighthearted “Would You Rather” episode!

We’re tackling a mix of parenting dilemmas and completely random, borderline unhinged questions that will have you laughing, cringing, and wondering what you’d choose. Would you rather have a toddler who only eats beige foods or a teenager who communicates exclusively in memes? Would you rather have to live on coffee and snacks from the kids’ snack bin or... well, you’ll just have to listen to find out!

It’s the perfect episode to unwind, laugh, and commiserate with us as we wrap up 2024 in the most ridiculous way possible.

It’s time for our June catch-up! This week on Mom Group Chat, we’re talking about all the things—starting with our Memorial Day weekend plans and how we’re navigating the early stages of toddler logic (spoiler: they’re finally starting to understand consequences... kind of?). We chat about the idea of “earning things back,” whether we need to level up our discipline game, and if it’s finally time to break out the ol’ behavior chart.

Candace also gives a full recap of Hannah’s dreamy wedding day (yes, there was a dance floor moment) and shares an update on how TJ and Andrew are doing.

Come hang with us—this one feels like sitting on the porch with your best friends, drink in hand, wondering if your kid just manipulated you or if they’re actually becoming a decent human.

Mom Group Chat - EP 91: Can't we all just be friends?
play

04/15/25 • 44 min

This week on Mom Group Chat, we’re diving into the motherhood discourse that’s been lighting up the internet.

From Chappell Roan’s viral comments to Ellen Pompeo’s reflections on the Call Her Daddy podcast, we unpack the very real tension surrounding how women talk about motherhood publicly. Why does it always feel like moms are coming for each other—or that we have to plant a flag in a certain “camp” of how we feel about motherhood?

The truth is: motherhood is so many things at once. It’s beautiful and brutal. Joyful and exhausting. It’s a full range of emotions—often felt in a single day. On this podcast, we give ourselves (and you) permission to feel all of it. No shame, no labels, no performative takes—just real, raw conversations about what it means to be a mom today.

We hope this episode reminds you that your experience is valid, and you don’t owe the internet (or anyone) a perfectly packaged version of your motherhood story.

In this week’s episode, both Candace and Whitney are back behind the mics to share personal updates. It’s been a whirlwind lately, and the two dive into everything that’s been happening in their lives—starting with Candace’s experience dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. With over 3.5 feet of water flooding her home, Candace opens up about the chaos, emotions, and what it takes to rebuild when life throws you a curveball.

But it’s not all heavy stuff—Whitney comes in with some big and exciting news that will leave you feeling uplifted! (Spoiler: This is one update you don’t want to miss.) Together, they reflect on navigating life’s ups and downs, the importance of support through hard times, and finding joy in new beginnings.

Welcome to our very first monthly catch-up episode! At the start of each month, we’re taking a beat to check in, share life updates, and chat about what’s been on our minds. And wow—January felt like it lasted a whole year, right?

In this episode, Candace opens up about a major life update following the flooding of her home, sharing what life has looked like as her family rebuilds. We commiserate over the never-ending stretch of January and the collective sigh that is finally reaching February. Plus, we talk all things Evie—Candace’s youngest is turning ONE, and we’re reflecting on the past year of baby snuggles, milestones, and the chaos of toddler + baby life.

Whitney gives an update on work and what’s been keeping her busy, and we wrap things up with an exciting announcement: Mom Group Chat Merch is coming! We’re putting together something special for our community, and if you want to be the first to know when it drops, sign up for our MERCH WAITLIST!
