Today's solo episode is with yours truly, Casey Crowe Taylor and today you are on a journey to find out just how neurotic I really am when it comes to parenting. I talk about our family's core values that drive and influence every single parenting decision we make. I review our drill sergeant-like morning and evening routines we do every night. I also go over our House Rules for screens, food, and toys. And even go over some examples of how I build resiliency with my kids by consciously allowing for, and sometimes intentionally creating, age-appropriate uncomfortable and difficult scenarios for my kids to navigate.  INSTAGRAM LINKS: Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/themomwhine/ Send Casey a DM: https://www.instagram.com/caseycrowetaylor/ LINKS Hiya Health Vitamins We Love: https://hiyahealth.com/products/kids-daily-essential FAVORITE Planner: https://www.amazon.com/CONFIDENTIAL-Planner-Journal-Productive-Skincare/dp/B0C9R6XVFT Magnatiles (the BEST toy ever!): https://rb.gy/skhjtq

Casey talks about how last week with the snow days wasn't that much different than a normal week for her. She also goes on a random rant about what "solo parenting" means according to internet peoples.    Where Do All the Socks Go? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZ_vVxI6ezU Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themomwhine/ Come answer our listener question: https://www.instagram.com/p/CvQDQ-brawR/ Visit www.themomwhine.com

Guys, I leave no stone unturned in this episode for you, for better or worse. I give some absolute unsolicited opinions in some random spots.

In this mini-whine we are generally talking about the fact that as parents none of us really know what we are doing or how the decisions we make will impact our kids in the long run. It's really just our best-educated guess as a shot in the dark. Casey goes on a random rant about the culture of American sports. We talk about making the agonizing decision about where to send our kids to school. It's a delightful random ride if I (Casey) do say so myself.

We have a super candid conversation about adult friendships. We talked about the shifts we felt as we had our first child and then our second. Elizabeth talks about how she and her friends showed up for the first one in the group to become a mom, and it's a shining example of how it should be done, by the way. Casey talks about breaking up with a "best friend" and how it affected her making new ones. We talk about the importance of quality over quantity when it comes to the people in our lives and the time we spend with them.  Hit play and then hit us up with your thoughts in the DM!

These two veteran moms share their experiences with having one kid, two kids and then three kids and how each "season" of mom life has needed different rules and boundaries. Casey talks about how unintentionally her kids have had zero TV time for the past three months and the pair discuss their screen time rules for travel and restaurants.

It's "just us" today. Your trusty co-hosts Casey Crowe Taylor and Elizabeth Carberry. And today we tackle the mom version of Mt. Everest, self-care for moms. Was that dramatic? Maybe, but it's how we feel. What counts as "self-care"? What doesn't? what makes us feel guilty about "self-care"? How do we approach self-care? What different levels are there of self-care? We go deep and we go shallow (lol) in this episode as always. There are so real LOL moments and some moments that make you think.  Don't be a stranger, come talk to us about self-care on Instagram!

Join us in this candid and eye-opening podcast as we dive into the raw and unfiltered realities of motherhood in 2023. In this episode, we have a heartfelt conversation with Jenna Searby, Pediatric Nurse and Sleep Consultant, who opens up about her experience with postpartum depression for the first time, despite being a seasoned mother of five. Elizabeth shares her journey of navigating the joys and challenges of co-sleeping and emphasizes the importance of establishing a solid routine for better sleep. We also explore the age-old question of whether to bathe or not to bathe stinky kids (spoiler alert Casey is all for the stink lol) finding humor and solidarity in the messy moments. Lastly, Jenna shares her experience of how she dealt with an unexpected maternity leave and honestly shares that she's not 100% sure on the future of how she wants to run her business. If that sounds familiar, go back and listen to Episode 007 of The Mom Whine and hear about how all five of Casey and Elizabeth's combined maternity leaves also did not go as planned - so much realness in that ep!    Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themomwhine/ Visit www.themomwhine.com   Follow Jenna on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/winkandbundle/ Check out Jenna's website: https://winkandbundle.com/ Book a Session with Jenna: https://winkandbundle.com/package-bundles

Can we just say, we are SO excited for this episode to go live today? Kaileen Else Sues is with us today, breakfast wine included, and this chat was just CUP FILLING if you know what I mean?! We cover so much in this episode.  Today, buckle up as we unleash our deepest inner thoughts (and by our we mean Casey's lol), navigate the wild unofficial "mom spectrum," and laugh at the absurdity of it all. Get ready to reclaim motherhood on our own terms and dive headfirst into the magic, the mayhem, and the pure awesomeness of being a modern mom! Reclaiming Motherhood: We're So Much More Than Mothers. Ladies, let's face it—motherhood doesn't mean surrendering our identities at the door. We're a force to be reckoned with! In this episode, we're breaking free from the clutches of societal norms and redefining what it means to be a mom. We've got dreams, passions, and aspirations, and damn it, we're going to chase them all while being great moms. Finding Your Inner Voice: Hold on tight, because we're diving deep into the depths of our souls and discovering that fierce inner mom-roar! Forget those cookie-cutter images of a "perfect" mom; we're all about authenticity and embracing our quirks. It's time to shut out the noise of mom-shamers and naysayers, and instead, crank up the volume on our own inner voices.  From "Hot Mess" to "Pinterest": Let's LOL as we explore the wild world of the unofficial mom spectrum. Whether you're the queen of semi-organized chaos or the guru of Pinterest-worthy everything, we celebrate each other's uniqueness. Those labels are so pointless? Toxic? Completely made up? Embrace the mess or stand in pride in your impeccable organization - as long as you feel happy and fulfilled in your spot on this unofficial spectrum - claiming your own definition of motherhood is the most important part! Zen Mom Moments: Finding Calm in the Crazy! In the midst of the mom tornado, finding zen moments might seem like a pipe dream. But fear not, ladies! We're (mainly Kaileen haha) here with some hot tips and tricks to help you channel your inner calm. From mindfulness hacks to simply savoring those precious moments, we've got the tools to help you rock that serene mama vibe. It's all about being present with our kids and soaking up the awesomeness of motherhood. Define Motherhood YOUR Way: Embrace the Rebel! In this episode, we're unleashing our inner rebels and breaking the shackles of traditional motherhood! We don't conform; we define our path and celebrate the amazing moms we are! So toss aside those preconceived notions and societal expectations. You've got the power to create a motherhood journey that's uniquely yours—so go ahead, paint your own canvas with the most vibrant, audacious colors!   About Kaileen: Kaileen Elise Sues is an intuition coach who helps her clients cut through the noise in everyday life and get back in touch with their truest selves.

TESTING TESTING - IS THIS THING ON?! Ladies (and probably not any gentlemen?) we are pushing the boundaries of Elizabeth's mental inflexibility this week to bring you a new format called Wine Chat? Mommy Hour? MINI WHINES?! We're not 100% sure but basically what you can expect is shorter, unstructured episodes where we are just catching up on our weeks.  This week we discuss: Schedules vs. no schedules for kids in summer Sucking at asking for help Elizabeth planned a day of fun and her friends said hard pass Casey is generally unwell and wants to throw adult tantrums lol The new Threads app saved Casey's creativity Why long weekends kind of suck Our relationship with Instagram   P.S. The "self care" episode is coming to you next. DM us your complaints so we can all whine together :)    Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themomwhine/ Visit www.themomwhine.com  

We enter the chat talking about urine-soaked bed sheets, being jumpy while menstruating (the bears can smell the menstruation anyone?), and being shooketh when your toddler wakes you in the middle of the night with a gentle caress. You can expect some great information and as per usual some absolute tomfoolery with this one because that's what we're all about. Taking the serious and making it less serious lol. With five maternity leaves between the two of us, we dig into how we prepared for maternity leave with each baby and how it turned out AKA not like we planned. We got this question from a listener and wanted to create an entire episode around it! We briefly discuss the new Pregnant Worker Fairness Act that is in the process of being fully put into place. Casey gets on her soapbox about how freelancer and self employed women get left out of the paid leave conversation completely. Both Casey and Elizabeth go into what they loved and what they wish they did differently with each maternity leave. Casey goes into how her business model has changed with each pregnancy and maternity leave really. Elizabeth talks about how having literal Google Docs of plans was super helpful (and then not so helpful) for her. Casey talks about how she is preparing for her next maternity leave even though she's not even pregnant yet. Really the moral of the episode is that you can't plan for something you know nothing about? All you can do is give yourself grace and lean on your community. If you have no community, hello! we are happy to be your stand-in for the moment.   Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themomwhine/ Visit www.themomwhine.com

We talk about the Titanic submersible, the cat travel community, the fact that this episode was a re-record from last week. Elizabeth goes through her travel strategy in the car as her and her family regularly drive 6 hours to Long Island, NY. Casey chats through flying with kids after being on at least a dozen flight with her kids and just recently flew with both her kids alone.  Both Casey and Elizabeth started traveling with their kids from a very young age (7,8 weeks). Casey talks about the worst ages to fly with kids (even though she still travels with them at that age.)  We address the thing that happened with Jessie James Decker's sister on a flight and how if it was a Dad traveling with his kids alone, the entire plane would have given him a standing ovation off the place and everyone would have helped the "poor Dad". Queue eye rolls down the street. Last but not least, HOT TIP, if you are traveling with your kids this summer CHECK THOSE IPAD DOWNLOAD LICENSES!!!!

Welcome to another episode of The Mom Whine Podcast. In today's show, we delve into the topic of being working moms and explore what it truly means to navigate motherhood in this generation. We also tackle the intriguing idea of banning the term "working mom" altogether. Our guest for today is Elise, the co-founder of Catholic Women in Business. Elise found herself in a unique position where she struggled to connect with other working women in her local church who were also seeking financial independence. On the flip side, she faced challenges finding entrepreneurial women who shared her faith. Catholic Women in Business was born out of this desire to bridge the gap, with a Facebook group boasting over 4,000 members. During the conversation, Elise shares her insights on how she integrates her faith into her daily routine. From parenting and self-care to her work life and even meals, she has found ways to weave her spirituality into every aspect of her life. Our hosts, Casey and Elizabeth, also contribute their perspectives on their experiences with the Catholic Church and spiritual faith. Tune in to this enlightening episode as we delve into the complexities and joys of being working moms in today's world and as we explore the transformative power of faith and how it shapes our lives as women and mothers.

Trigger warning: we talk in-depth about alcohol use in this episode.   We find out Casey's husband isn't actually underground that much. We talk about how annoying it is to have to schedule things around nap times or after bed or have your husband take the day off to get your hair done.   Absolutely no one asked us but in this episode, we address the idea that "mommy wine culture" is toxic and detrimental to motherhood. (Obviously, there are certain circumstances that are toxic and where a person needs treatment or help, and we've listed links below for that.) But really what we wanted to talk about in this episode is how claiming "mommy wine culture" is bad or toxic is just another way to shame moms or make moms feel guilty for something they enjoy.    We talk about our feelings about the mom labels of "crunchy", "scrunchy" and "silky". We can all drink whatever we want at the same table. It's other people who are pinning us against each other for literally no reason.    Casey talks about how she almost did Dry June and Elizabeth talks about attending her oldest's kindergarten graduation.   Listener question of the week: What has helped support you in being a working mom?   P.S.

Raising kids is a juggling act, and the little things add up. We're talking about clipping tiny fingernails, surviving toddler shoe wars, trying to squeeze in date nights, navigating the overwhelming parenting advice online, and so on. It's a whirlwind, but it's all better when we whine about it right?! 😂   Hold onto your wine glass because Elizabeth's doctor's office adventure takes the lead in this episode. On the day we launched our podcast, she had a day for the books! We'll let her take the mic and share the pure chaos of what really goes on behind the scenes even on a day that looks shiny and fun on social media. We truly go deep on how much time and energy goes into scheduling doctor appointments, going to them, and the aftermath of doctor appointments.   Casey talks about not wanting feedback and Elizabeth elaborates on not wanting any new friends. We go off on Teacher Appreciation Week (whoops 😬), dish on what it was like to transition from 1 kid to 2 kids, Casey talks about being an overly confident first-time mom and of course we end on what wine we drank this week.   Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themomwhine/ Visit www.themomwhine.com

Elizabeth and Casey get into how we both declared this year, The Year of….something. Here's the thing. Motherhood is incredibly overwhelming on all fronts. While our reasons and approaches are different, we wanted to talk about how we very consciously dedicated this year to something. If you're a new mom, a seasoned mom, or really just a human, you'll relate to something in our stories here.   That is if you make it through the first twelve minutes of very literal sh*t talk. We're coming on strong and we know it. Casey talks about the inner voice coaching session that led her to read a book called The Surrender Experiment and how it led her to declare this year The Year of Yes. Elizabeth talk about losing herself in motherhood after having 3 kids in 6 years and how she's reclaimed herself the last five months. Should we do an end-of-summer check-in on the Year of ____?! Let us know.   Some other things we get into:    Making new friends as an adult. Dinner war zones and what meals our kids eat in peace. The mom who survived on wine and lollipops in Australia. Hating and eventually outsourcing laundry.   The mom podcast you never knew you needed. Making motherhood less lonely, more real and a bit funnier.   Thanks for tuning into The Mom Whine.

Welcome to The Mom Whine Podcast where we hilariously and awkwardly stumble through our first episode. We promise our work in progress will progress. In what ways, TBD. But here you will get to know us - Casey Crowe Taylor (hi, it's me, I'm the show notes writer, it's me.) and Elizabeth Carberry (she's the organized wiz who keeps this show on the road).   We really go all over the place here but we try our best to talk through why this podcast, what this podcast is, and why this podcast came to life now. Because truth be told, we executed the sh*t out of this thing in 3 weeks flat. And as two women with multiple kids and businesses every one of you listeners had better be impressed as hell. Just kidding, at this point we will gladly take mildly entertained in the hope of impressing you down the road…maybe?   We get into how this podcast was originally, casually created through a fateful Instagram DM last December when both of us were drinking daily to get through holiday madness as mothers. We talk about the bumble bee that rudely interrupted Casey's wine time for way longer than we should have. We LOL about how we are the personal secretaries for our husbands who chaotically have no one saved in their phone contacts. It's a real great sample of the random and relatable things we will get into on this podcast.   And if stick with us long enough, you'll be on the inside of the "You Don't Have to Wear a Crown to be Queen" joke.   We can't wait to keep making this podcast. New episodes dropping every Thursday.   The mom podcast you never knew you needed. Making motherhood less lonely, more real and a bit funnier.   Thanks for tuning into The Mom Whine.
