Clean Houses. Dead Libidos: Chores That Drain Us
Breakfast with Benefits
Endless cooking. Soul-sucking laundry. Ignored trash. Damn sticky fridge door. That hair in the drain. In this episode, we cry about domestic hell that quietly drain our energy, time, and sanity every single day. From onion chopping and endless laundry to disappearing socks and messes no one else seems to notice, we unpack the mental load of keeping a household running and why it leaves us completely soulless. Three women, three cultures, honest laughs, shared frustration, and zero pretending. This episode might make you drop everything on the floor, stop cleaning for a week, and watch the...

Forget “Starting Over.” You’re Starting Older.
Breakfast with Benefits
We’re taught that starting over means erasing who we were. New life, new career, new body, new version. Clean slate or nothing. This episode pushes back. It’s for women who feel late. For women who think they have to begin from zero. For women who feel fragmented by many lives, careers, countries, bodies, and identities. Because the truth is quieter and braver than that. Starting again isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about listening more deeply to who you’ve always been. Yrmis’s story proves it. Nothing was random. Nothing was wasted. If...

What was THAT? A No-Filter New Year Conversation
Breakfast with Benefits
It's our last episode of the year, and instead of pretending we're brand new people, we did something more honest. We let AI write our New Year episode and then reacted in real time. What followed was funny, uncomfortable, accurate, and very us. We talk about who we became this year, the patterns we're done repeating, the resolutions that didn't survive real life, and what we're actually carrying into the new year. No glow-ups. No pressure. Just three women, one table, and a very real New Year conversation. Happy New Year. We're still here.

B-Side of Art Basel: Women Who Create Anyway
Breakfast with Benefits
Art Basel Miami is loud, glossy, and expensive. This episode lives on the B-side. During Miami Art Week, we went off the main stage and into the booths and corridors to find women behind the art. Not the headlines. Not the VIP lists. The real ones. We met mothers who paused their creativity, and came back anyway. Artists juggling school pickups, illness, immigration, self-doubt, and the need to create. Women who didn't wait to feel ready. They just started. These are unfiltered conversations recorded on the go during Art Basel and Miami Art Week. Honest talks about art, motherhood, identity,...

How Our Feeds Feed Our Mess
Breakfast with Benefits
Our feeds won't stop feeding us nonsense, and we can't stop scrolling. In this episode, we look at how our phones shape what we think, how we feel, and why everything suddenly feels like a mess, even during the days we're supposed to feel grateful. From algorithm anxiety to the pressure of perfect lives, we unpack what we're being served every day and what it's doing to us. Funny, honest, a little unhinged...just how we like it.

Trick or Retreat? (Exhausted Mom Escape)
Breakfast with Benefits
What happens when three mothers try to find peace and end up in a Temazcal wondering why enlightenment smells like sweat and eucalyptus? In this unfiltered episode, Beyza, Julia, and Kriszta confess what really goes down at women's retreats: overpriced yoga mats, collective tears, and the hope that "healing" lasts longer than the flight home. From solo trips in Sedona to group bonding in Tulum, the trio dives into motherhood burnout, fake zen, and the hilarious ways women justify disappearing for four days to "reconnect with their soul." Breakfast with Benefits, where three women, three...

Breakfast with Benefits
Sleepness nights follow us from babyhood to adulthood and somehow, nobody's getting rest. In this episode, we sit down with Sleep Coach Ane, a former lawyer who turned her own battles with anxiety and insomnia into a new calling : helping families sleep.

How insomnia, menapause, and stress shape adult sleep struggles... What works ( what doesn't) with melatonin, magnesium and CBD... Ane's...
