“I’ve only been a mother for a year and a half. It has changed my life entirely. Overwhelmingly so. I’ve had many beautiful moments and some hard ones. But the hard ones make me question myself so hard, it is brutal. When I listen to this podcast, I can relate to every single woman here, I learn...”Read full review »

“In the episode talking to the couple about not having sex for two years, there’s quite a bit of shaming and quite honestly rude attitude towards this mother for wanting to breastfeed longer and co sleep. To all the moms that want to breastfeed longer than a year and want to co sleep: PLENTY OF...”Read full review »

“In many instances Dr. Sacks missed the mark.
In one episode about a couple not having sex for two years she blames it on breastfeeding and bed sharing. We know this isn’t the reason because there are many who bed share and have more than one child! You can have sex on other places besides a...”Read full review »

“I’m disappointed that the host doesn’t help the interviewee find a way for her to keep her career and develop her motherhood. It seems to me that the gâter ought to co-parent and this ought to be mite of a couples conversation. Why should the patriarchy keep women from progressing ? BOTH parents...”Read full review »

“I’ve enjoyed listening to the podcast, although I was disappointed by the therapists take on the decision to continue to breastfeed a baby who is not yet two, and a lack of understanding around the mothers reluctance to stop this. The therapist seems to suggest that it is better for the child to...”Read full review »

“Love the openness of these very brave women (and some men). I have been able to relate on so many levels. I struggle with the vocal fry. It can be so distracting that I miss her important points and advice. I think the content beats the sound quality, but I can see why some bail. Stay healthy all!”
