F**king Four Year Olds 08/11/2021

F**king Four Year Olds *Deeeeeeep breath*. Four year olds are a special kind of hell. They are cute and CRAZY. Give them the exact snack they requested? Obviously you are stupid because that was NOT what they truly wanted. Tell them one more short show before bedtime? You must be out of your fucking mind to have boundaries. LOL... It's exhausting to keep things cool and calm amongst their emotional downward spiral. /episode/index/show/tmftpodcast/id/20109377

Re-entry, the Hangover of Parenthood Have you ever had a night or more away from your family and fill your soul up with sleep, autonomy, laughter, some adventure or whatever fills your soul while you have some precious time away from your sweet family. It's glorious! And, you are so excited to return to hug your sweet babies... but that return can hit you like a ton of bricks. That's what we call "re-entry".

The Formula for Sanity 06/24/2021

The Formula for Sanity In this week's episode, Whitney shares her journey with breastfeeding, nursing and formula feeding. It all wasn't a linear journey, but what was learned is that a fed baby is a happy baby. And! That mama's mental health matters. After a very difficult nursing journey with her first child, and a semi ok journey nursing her second, she decided to formula feed her third child. This turned out to be one of the best decisions she could have made for her own sanity and that overall happiness of her fami /episode/index/show/tmftpodcast/id/19596269

You Can't Just Walk Out The Door 06/17/2021

You Can't Just Walk Out The Door Remember life before kids when you would just walk out the door with zero coordination or consideration for anyone or anything? That shit has sailed after having kids, especially during the week if you are the primary caregiver. Even if you working partner is at home doing their 8-5 job, the primary caregiver can't just walk out the door... yet the "working" partner seems to have the freedom. Welcome to the rant! /episode/index/show/tmftpodcast/id/19513136

Summer "Break"... WTF 06/03/2021

Summer "Break"... WTF Summer is more work for us parents! Not only are parents left with more work and typically needing to sign up for summer camps for their kiddos so they can work, but many of us at home parents are exhausted being cruise directors. More dishes, more messes, lots of "I'm bored"... it's just exhausting. And while we all know our summers are short with our sweet babes, we can't let this guilt rob us of our sanity and truth... summer is not a break for parents. /episode/index/show/tmftpodcast/id/19337459

Help Is In The House After a long ass time, Whitney's parents have arrived to finally meet Whitney's pandemic baby!

Taking Back Mother's Day, The Movement 05/12/2021

Taking Back Mother's Day, The Movement If Mother's Day was really a day to celebrate moms, we'd be sipping mimosas while on a floaty raft at an all inclusive resort with our best friends. It seems that there are still brunches happening where moms have to participate in the caring for their precious children, whom they do love very much, but also deserve an actual break from. So! Moms, we need to take the day back and get a real break. /episode/index/show/tmftpodcast/id/19073342

I Just Need A Day, Dammit 04/07/2021

I Just Need A Day, Dammit Sometimes we as moms and parents just need a day to ourselves to get shit done. These days don't come easy and they usually come with some guilt at times. Why is that?

Why Aren't You Napping? 03/24/2021

Why Aren't You Napping? In this week's episode, Whitney talks about the joys of short naps. Not by her, but by her 11 month old. Why why why won't she nap longer than 45 min?? It's probably FOMO but it could very well be that Whitney didn't sing the entire nap time song or read the correct book to make the nap perfect. Who knows? /episode/index/show/tmftpodcast/id/18441032

I'm Pretty F**king Tired 03/10/2021

I'm Pretty F**king Tired On this week's episode, Whitney does a little mind dump about the challenges that come along with our own mental health and the health of the family. It's really difficult to separate the two, while also making sure our children know we are not robots. But how? How do we process our feelings when we are being pulled in many directions, needing to be on, and all the while trying to cope with some internal struggles. There's not many solutions, but hopefully you will find something to connect with. /episode/index/show/tmftpodcast/id/18263183
