It's 2020, Stop Doing These Things!

Happy New Year and a New Decade!!! Wow we are in the 2020s already! It definitely seemed like this was meant to be way in the future and my biggest disappointment is that the microwaveable mini pizza that turned into a large one in Back to The Future isn't real.
As we move into this new decade, there are many things from this past year and decade in general (especially the latter half) that we really need to leave behind. And this episode is all about those things and my highly opinionated point of view on them (and yours as shared on my Instagram - thank you for that!).
So what are the things we talk about in this episode that need to be left behind? Mom shaming, unsolicited parental advice, telling moms enjoy every minute of it, trolling people on social media, being flat out role in the name of "woke culture" - seriously so many negative people out there bringing others down - these things really need to be left behind in 2019.
I also discuss some other trends that I think we need to get away from - such as recording everyone's bad moments and sharing them on social media to shame them. I give a detailed reason why this needs to be reduced and what the impact I see of this unhealthy habit being trickled down to our kids.
I also discuss some other things that have become super trendy on social media - aka thirst traps! - people talking about them for likes and follows - such as vulnerability and talking about anxiety for the sake of getting likes. The woman supporting woman movement? Mom supporting mom movement? Yeah these need to slow down to realness only as well. And can we please retire the use of letter boards and ridiculous filters on our images?! Why do we need to distort reality to such a high degree? I mean I'm still going to use the Paris filter on Instagram from time to time and definitely will use Lightroom for some images to correct the color - but we can all agree the air brushed photo look that reduces you to having no features and bone structure on your face can go?!? Right?
There are some other things we talk about as well that you need to listen to this episode for. Check it out and subscribe to the podcast if you haven't already! Have a great week!
Tis the Season of Festivus
Mom Like That
12/17/19 • 28 min
Happy Holidays Everyone! We are ramping up for Christmas and as excited as we are man the stuff that needs to get done can be a major PAIN! So today we are airing out our Christmas grievances on this episode celebrating Festivus. What is Festivus? It originates from Seinfeld (hey Seinfeld fans!!!) and according to yourdictionary.com this is the definition: Festivus is defined as a secular holiday celebrated on December 23 that is essentially anti-Christmas, a backlash to the commercialization of Christmas and involves the airing of grievances. The term was first used by Frank Costanza (father of principle character George Costanza) on the American comedy Seinfeld.
So today we are focusing on airing out some of our Christmas grievances. This that we talk about today are advent calendars, Elf on the Shelf, traveling during the holidays, family time when you hate them or cant get along with them, lack of family time when its not by choice, gift giving and grievances around buying presents, giving presents out of obligation and getting weird AF gifts. We also talk about the pickle tradition, and the drama around Christmas political correctness (spoiler alert, no one cares if you say Merry Christmas! No one is mad! Just be kind!).
Hope you enjoy this episode. After this, we will be off till the new year and be back on Jan 7 with another new episode! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone!

Living in the Era of Social Media
Mom Like That
11/12/19 • 76 min
The screen time and technology debate. How much is too much screen time? Join us for a conversation between Terri and Gila: Two women’s opinions not backed by studies (for the most part). The impact of technology on our lives is big and often millennials (and the kids being raised in this technology era) are given a bad rep for their “overuse” of technology and how much we rely on it. We talk about numerous things surrounding technology: The app culture and communicating on numerous apps. Social media and how much time we spend on it. How much time our kids spend on apps and in front of screens and establishing boundaries that work for us.
We talk about the many benefits of technology: keeping families and friends connected around the world. For moms especially, we found making mom friends through social media has had a positive impact. Our lives are better with the people we have connected with online – who we can talk to about our lives and struggles – someone who knows us but doesn’t know us in the day to day – that’s something technology has allowed us to do – enabling a supportive online mom community that would not have been possible without the social media apps we are on.
We also discuss rules and setting boundaries at home with technology use. Gila shares with us how her family unplugs from technology completely once a week for 25 hours on the weekend due to religious reasons and the discipline and benefits that come with it are powerful.

A Girls Night In

08/20/19 • 98 min
Step into our living room for lots of wine and a fun girls night in with Amanda from @momof1anddone (on Instagram!). You are in for a lot of fun today! This week we welcomed Amanda for a fun girls night with us. She came equipped with wine and a lot to talk about. We talked to her about why Mom of 1 and Done, what her feelings are on this subject and what led to her decision to have 1 child only (something so many people can relate to even with more than one child). We talk about our own birthing and breast feeding experiences and our pregnancies and the trials and tribunals these experiences have on our mental health.
Since Amanda is a mom to a child with nut allergies, we got a mom's perspective on what it's like raising children with allergies and the precautions she takes. She shared some great resources for epi pen discounts too! Because we know they are expensive!
We end the episode with a fun game of Fuck, Marry, Kill while consuming a lot of wine throughout our conversation (which becomes so evident as we play the game).

The Mom Workload and Your Village
Mom Like That
06/04/19 • 37 min
This week on the podcast we talk to Ela W., founder of Sitterhood Inc. We talk to Ela about the increasing workload for moms, even though there's more equality in house hold work, even though dads are more supportive and involved in the day to day activities at home and outside of home, the workload for mothers continues to increase compared to our parents' generations and the way they raised their kids and the support they had.
We talk about the changes over generations and how the concept of having your village to support you isn't the same as it used to be. We talk about the increasing mom guilt and work load and the lack of the "village" that exists now, that we need to help raise our children. Moms need a break to reset their minds, to take time for themselves or even do chores that are easier done without caring for a kid at the same time, but most of us struggle to find that support on a regular basis. Ela shares her story with us and what support looks like for her, and how she finds help. We talk to Ela about how the need of finding a support system so she can have a break ended up with her creating a service and online community called Sitterhood. Ela shares with us the full purpose of sitterhood, and how moms can find support in other moms in their own areas.
Ela is a stay-at-home mom and the founder of Sitterhood, an online community where parents can connect for occasional childcare. She worked in Advertising/Marketing for over 10 years, until having her son almost four years ago. She currently lives in Hamilton, Ontario with her husband and two kids. Her vision is to build a community for parents to grow their support network and make occasional childcare more accessible for all parents across Canada.
