🎙️CHOOSE JOY... in case you missed it! We know that some people aren't big in the podcast world yet, so we wanted to give you access to some of our episodes right here on FB and YT! Although we are dropping episode #4 this week, we are starting here at the beginning! In our very first episode, we’re embracing our “geriatric mom” status—because why be “advanced maternal age” when we can be gerries? We’re diving into the beauty and chaos of motherhood, from laugh-out-loud moments (like when a mess turns into a photo op) to the deeper challenges that can leave us feeling lost. No matter what life throws our way, we always have a choice in how we respond. Sometimes, it’s with humor; other times, it’s about finding light in the darkness. Join us as we share our unfiltered take on motherhood, womanhood, and why choosing joy makes all the difference.

Motherhood is full of beautiful, chaotic moments—but sometimes, life throws us the kind of heartbreak that even coffee and dry shampoo can’t fix. In today's episode, we kick things off with our usual humor (because laughter is therapy), but then we get real about grief, loss, and the people who help us through it. We share three powerful ways to navigate loss: first, by intentionally building a support system that will show up when life gets heavy. Second, by recognizing that even in heartbreak, joy and celebration still have a place. And finally, we reflect on the comforting idea that our connection to loved ones doesn’t end when they leave their physical bodies. Loss is hard, but no one should go through it alone. So grab a coffee (or something stronger), and let’s talk about finding light in the darkest moments—together. #Byefornow #matureishmommas #copingwithloss #motherhood #preschoolmommas #advancedmaternalage #momcast #podcast

💤🎙️Sleepless in... Everywhere. (Episode 3 of MatureISH Mommas in case you missed it) Sleep? What’s that? In this episode of Mature(ish) Mommas: Life Unfiltered, we dive into the universal struggle of motherhood and exhaustion. Whether it’s a toddler sneaking into your bed, an anxious brain running a mental marathon at 2 a.m., or the joy of middle-of-the-night hot flashes, we get it—moms just don’t sleep. We also discuss ways to support melatonin production and create better sleep habits (because, let’s be honest, we need all the help we can get). But beyond the sleepless nights, we reflect on how our generation approaches parenting differently from the baby boomers who raised us. Gone are the days of rigid bedtime rules—today, it’s about finding what works for our kids and for us. So, if co-sleeping, sleep training, or something in between is your reality, know this: there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Let’s ditch the mom guilt and support each other in raising well-rested (or at least semi-rested) little humans—no comparisons required. #matureishmommas #motherhoood #positivemom #momlife #mompodcast #Sleepdeprived #sleepdeprivedmom

Makin a Baby 101 (in case you missed it from the Mature(ish) Mommas Podcast) Baby fever hits different for everyone, and in this episode, we’re diving into our wildly different (and equally unforgettable) journeys to motherhood. From surprise babies to ovulation road trips (yes, really!), Caley shares the hilariously unpredictable ways her little ones came to be. Meanwhile, Megan opens up about her long and emotional road through infertility, a 14-year journey filled with challenges, hope, and resilience. With plenty of laughter, honesty, and a few did-that-really-happen?! moments, we’re laying it all out—because no two motherhood stories are the same, and that’s what makes them beautiful. Whether you’ve been there, are trying, or just love a good baby-making tale, this one’s for you! #matureishmommas #motherhoood #positivemom #momlife #choosejoy #mompodcast #pregnancy #infertility #ovulation #pregnancytest
