About this episode
The episode discusses infidelity, mom loneliness, and the ethics of reality TV while sharing pop culture insights and personal experiences of motherhood.
This week on Always Here we share everything we’re watching right now (yes, we’re gearing up for The Bachelorette), unpack whether shows should include ratings or content warnings around themes like pregnancy loss, and have an honest conversation about those isolating new-mom months and years. From navigating friendship conflict to actually making friends when you feel awkward, overwhelmed, or left out — this episode is part pop culture recap, part deep dive into the emotional realities of motherhood. If you’ve ever felt alone while everyone else looked fine, this one’s for you.
