Toxic Celebrity Mom Group? ...We Don't Think So

In this week's episode of Good Girls, we talk about the conversations sparked by Ashley Tisdale's viral essay on The Cut about craving a "mom village" only to feel sidelined by a mom celeb group - think Hilary Duff, Mandy Moore, and Megan Trainor. We get it, that'd be our #1 mom group choice, too. But, we aren't too into the idea of letting yourself feel excluded by one, single closed mom group when there are so many different ways to meet other parents. We talk on accidental exclusion, the energy limits of parenting, and how we all have that experience of our husband sticking up for us at the wrong moment. We call out a bit of pettiness (shade thrown, but kindly), and talk on skipping the toxicity and building your own community. There's a sea of awesome moms out there waiting who have that same experience of taking a Zoom call with a baby on the hip (or elsewhere).
