Her Way Forward

About Her Way Forward

Welcome to The Modern Motherload! This is a podcast for moms who are carrying way too much: emotionally, mentally, physically, and probably in their car trunks. Hosted by two women with 3 kids each, this is where we vent, overshare, and laugh about the unhinged reality of modern motherhood. From vacation meltdowns to school emails to the total identity crisis no one warned us about--we’re not okay, and that’s okay. We’re not here to be perfect moms. We certainly don't have all the answers. But once in a while, you might accidentally learn something. Maybe.

   From Steam Rooms to Staterooms: Our Spa Retreat and Disney Cruise Thoughts

   In this episode, Maggie shares what pushed her to the limit and had her impulsively book a swanky spa retreat weekend and Lili shares her thoughts about the Disney cruise she had impulsively booked months ago. Maggie and Lili discuss what they would do differently in the future and what they definitely plan to do again! If you are looking for the push to book the trip for yourself or book a cruise for your family that is more vacation than family trip, listen to this episode to give you the motivation and inspiration.

   The Summer We Forgot We Had a Podcast

   We disappeared and barely recorded. We embraced summer fun which meant slow days at the pool, trips to the beach, vacations here, there, and everywhere, and we neglected the podcast. But somehow, in the middle of all of it, we managed to record an episode about sleep habits! In this episode we are catching up on what we've been up to this summer with an episode recorded in July and how exactly we plan to get the rest we need to reset.
