069 It's the "Self Care" Season Finale!!

<p>On this very special season finale of the 4M Podcast, Mel &amp; Miranda share why they weren't able to publish an episode last week... once you hear, you'll understand! You know, every now and then we all need a break for some "self care," but sometimes "self care" goes too far and can actually become incredibly toxic!! The Gal Pals unpack some "health" trends that may not be healthy at all, at least not in the opinion of these two overworked mommas! Tune in and learn why diet culture, positive vibes only, and "treat yo self" may actually be doing more harm than good for your mental health and authentic relationships. Mix it all up with some ghost stories, a lesbian punk rock band, and waaaay too many old fashioneds, and you've got a pretty fantastic season finale of the Motherhood, Mayhem, and Medical Mysteries Podcast! #selfcare #workingmoms #treatyoself #positivevibesonly #motherhood </p><br><p>SOURCES:</p><p>https://www.buzzfeed.com/hannahloewentheil/toxic-self-care-trends</p><br><p>SPOTLIGHT:</p><p>All the Mayhem Mommas out there who spend time with us every week!

068 (Re-Release) The Breasties are Back!

<p>Have you ever gone on autopilot trying to get everything done only for it to result in a #momfail? Miranda is right there with you. In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Mayhem Mommas revisit a topic that is important for us all-- breast cancer and prevention. Mel shares some encouraging findings from a very recent study and Miranda discusses the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle (even if it involves an adult beverage every now and then) to reduce our risk of breast cancer.</p><br><p>Spotlight:</p><p>The Breast Cancer Research Foundation</p><p>https://www.bcrf.org/</p><p>Our mission is to prevent and cure breast cancer by advancing the world’s most promising research.</p><br><p>Sources:</p><p>Mel-</p><p><a href="https://www.bcrf.org/statistics-resources/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.bcrf.org/statistics-resources/</a>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="https://www.cancer.org/content/dam/cancer-org/research/cancer-facts-and-statistics/breast-cancer-facts-and-figures/2022-2024-breast-cancer-fact-figures-acs.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.cancer.org/content/dam/cancer-org/research/cancer-facts-and-statistics/breast-cancer-facts-and-figures/2022-2024-breast-cancer-fact-figures-acs.pdf</a>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="https://www.health.harvard.edu/cancer/early-breast-cancer-survival-rates-increasing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.health.harvard.edu/cancer/early-breast-cancer-survival-rates-increasing</a></p><br><p>Miranda-</p><p><a href="https://health.clevelandclinic.org/5-ways-to-boost-breast-health/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://health.clevelandclinic.org/5-ways-to-boost-breast-health/</a></p><p><br></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

067 Long COVID and Childhood Obesity!

<p>In this episode, Mel and Miranda dive into two important health topics that are impacting many families today. Mel kicks things off by unraveling the mystery behind long COVID—what it is, why it's so tricky to diagnose, and the ways it affects those who are struggling with ongoing symptoms. It’s a complicated topic, but Mel breaks it down in a relatable way that’ll make you feel informed and empowered. Next, Miranda shifts the conversation to the growing concern of childhood obesity. She explores why it's become so common, the factors contributing to this trend, and, most importantly, what we as parents can do to help prevent it. Miranda offers practical tips and reassures us that small changes can make a big difference in our kids’ health. Join us for an honest, supportive, and informative chat—because we're all in this journey together, mama!&nbsp;</p><br><p>#longCOVID #COVID19 #childhoodobesity #womenshealth #childrenshealth #parenting </p><br><p>SPOTLIGHT:</p><p>Pandemic Patients</p><p>https://pandemicpatients.org/</p><p>Pandemic Patients is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that works to relieve the harm caused by&nbsp;<a href="https://pandemicpatients.org/covid-19-general-information/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">COVID-19</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://pandemicpatients.org/post-covid-conditions/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">post-COVID conditions</a>.
