Interrupted by: Cutting Ties, Breaking the Cycle and Protecting Your Peace (Toxic Family Edition)
In this raw and unfiltered episode, we’re diving into one of the hardest conversations to have—what it really looks like to deal with toxic family relationships. From verbal and emotional abuse to guilt, obligation, and the pressure to “keep the peace,” we’re laying it all out and saying the things many people are afraid to admit out loud. We talk about the reality of setting boundaries, the difference between protecting your peace and cutting people off, and why extended family dynamics can be just as complicated—especially when relationships are rooted more in obligation than genuine connection. This conversation also explores the emotional toll these relationships take over time, the breaking point that forces change, and the grief, doubt, and even loneliness that can come with walking away. But on the other side of that, we also talk about peace, clarity, and the power of choosing yourself. As moms, we reflect on what it means to break generational cycles and create a healthier, safer environment for our kids—proving that sometimes the most loving thing you can do is set boundaries, even with family.

Interrupted by: A Softer Season
Spring is here, and everywhere we turn we’re told it’s time to refresh, reset, and reorganize. But in this episode of Mom, Interrupted, we’re not talking about closets, storage bins, or color-coded pantries.
We’re talking about spring cleaning our lives.
This week we dive into the invisible clutter moms carry — the expectations, guilt, and comparison that quietly pile up over time. Together we unpack the pressure to “do it all” in a new season, talk honestly about winter burnout, and challenge the never-ending mental “should list.”
We also share small, realistic micro-habits that can help reset your energy without completely overhauling your routine.
And because no episode is complete without a little fun, Jennifer completely surprises Ely with one of the biggest “hard launches” she’s had in a while, leading to a moment that Ely definitely did not see coming.
In this episode we talk about:
What moms actually need to declutter (hint: it’s not your house)
Tossing the unrealistic seasonal “should list”
Letting go of winter burnout
Micro-habits that can gently reset your energy
Mom confessions about what we’re NOT doing this spring
If you’re entering spring feeling more exhausted than refreshed, this episode is your reminder that a new season doesn’t have to mean doing more — sometimes it just means letting go of what you were never meant to carry.

Interrupted by: Valentines for the Galentines (with Special Guest)
This Galentine’s Day episode is a reminder that love doesn’t only show up in heart-shaped boxes or grand gestures. Joined by Ely’s sister-in-law and friend, Alyssa, we’re talking about the kind of love that quietly carries us through motherhood—friendship, connection, and feeling truly seen in this season of life.
We reflect on how friendships change after becoming moms, why adult connection matters more than ever, and how Galentine’s Day gives us permission to celebrate the people who show up in small but meaningful ways. We also get honest about Valentine’s Day expectations with our partners, how those expectations evolve after kids, and what feeling loved actually looks like right now.
This episode isn’t about doing Valentine’s “right.” It’s about releasing pressure, leaning into connection, and reminding ourselves that love exists in many forms—romantic, platonic, and everything in between. If you’ve been craving community, understanding, or just a reminder that you’re not alone, this conversation is for you.
