In Another Life

It’s a solo check-in from Wren this week Molly is RIP (not actually, just very busy and still very much alive), and we’ll be back to our regular cadence soon, promise.I’m giving a quick life update, talking about the boys (one who’s turned a corner, one who’s chosen chaos), what I’m currently watching to dissociate, and how everything somehow feels normal while the world is very much on fire.It’s a low-pressure, catch-up episode no agenda, just vibes, honesty, and a reminder that if you feel a little behind, tired, or overwhelmed… same. We’re doing our best, and we’ll be back soon.Grab your drink of choice, lower your expectations, and hang out with me for a bit. 💛

In honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, we’re re-releasing one of our most meaningful episodes — a raw, honest conversation about infertility, loss, and the long road to motherhood.With only a day left in October, we wanted to hold space for every mom who’s been there — the ones still waiting, the ones who’ve lost, and the ones who’ve quietly carried that pain. This one’s a reminder that you’re not alone, and that your baby — in whatever form — is out there. 🤍----⚠️ Trigger Warning: Infertility, IVF, and pregnancy loss are discussed in this episode.It’s a little long… but so is the road to motherhood for so many of us. In this raw and emotional episode, Wren shares her personal infertility journey — the doctor visits, IVF injections, and all the quiet grief in between. We unpack the absolute garbage advice people love to give ("just relax!" — please don’t), the awkward taboos of announcing pregnancy, and why Lauren Bosstick should maybe take a seat. If you’re in it, have been in it, or love someone who is: we see you, we love you, and we know your baby is out there.

Wren’s on day 5 of 14 of solo parenting two toddlers — completely. by. herself. She’s trudging through with her trusty 2000 clean rap playlist and sharing the survival hacks that are keeping her (barely) afloat: outsourcing, finding your tribe, and begging the universe for outside validation that she’s doing okay.Meanwhile, Molly dives into Nolan’s ball surgery — the stress, the recovery, and the relief of making it through. And because we can’t help ourselves, there’s also some talk of puke, rallying, and the things we do to survive this wild ride called parenting.#InAnotherLifePod #SoloParenting #AirForceOnes #OutsideValidation #PukeAndRally 👟🍼🍷

We’re back, baby — literally. After a month-long “break” to enjoy summer (aka survive it), Wren’s flying solo while Molly’s off in Montana — and she’s got a very special guest: her sister, who just had her first baby!We talk pregnancy, labor, postpartum chaos, and what it’s really like in those early newborn days. From the highs to the total WTFs, it’s raw, real, and a little bit ridiculous — because no one warns you about the mesh underwear and the emotional spirals.Grab your drinks and settle in. Auntie Wren’s on the mic.#InAnotherLifePod #SisterSpecial #PostpartumRealness #MomLifeUnfiltered 👶🧃🫠

Before kids, we were passport-stamping queens 🌍 — between the two of us, we’ve hit over 40 countries. Now? We’re just trying to survive TSA with fruit pouches and our sanity intact 🍌🧃. In this episode, we shoot the 💩 about the highs, lows, and leaks of traveling with little ones. From blowouts at 30,000 feet 🚼 to the sacred art of airplane snacks ✈️🍿 and enjoying that pre-departure cocktail🍷🧳 — we’ve got you.We also share our fave baby + toddler travel must-haves 🧸, and spill some real-life tips from our upcoming chaos: Wren’s heading to Chicago 🏙️ for 3 weeks, and Molly’s off to Montana 🏞️.It’s chaotic, it’s honest, and it’s definitely not in the guidebooks. #MomLifeOnTheMove

MAJOR SPOILERS: This week, we’re taking a detour from diapers and spit-up to dive deep into the drama of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives—and yes, it’s a spoiler-filled judgment fest (you’ve been warned).We break down the twists, the turns, and the new faces, throw some side-eye at the red flags we all saw coming, and passionately unpack why fundamentalist religion gives us a full-body ick.Still holding space for the original fan favorite (justice for her always), but let’s just say… not all friendships forged on MomTok are built to last.If you're into cult-adjacent chaos, a little sass, and two moms with too many opinions, this one's your post-bedtime guilty pleasure.#InAnotherLifePod #PraiseBeButNotLikeThat #MomTokMess #MomLifeUnfiltered #HotTakesAndHairBows #FundamentalismIsNotIt

Hindsight: the most judgmental mom friend of them all.This week on In Another Life, we’re spiraling into the coulda-shoulda-woulda’s of motherhood—those moments we look back on with a mix of exhaustion, laughter, and "WTF were we thinking?"Oh, and we shoot the shit about hot topics like Trump’s new “baby bonus,” why Carrie Bradshaw is actually the worst, and other unfiltered opinions we’ll probably regret (but not really).It’s messy, hilarious, and just the way we like it.#InAnotherLifePod #CouldaShouldaWoulda #HotTakesAndBlowouts #MomLifeUnfiltered #SleepIsAMyth #CarrieBradshawSlanderClub

Let’s talk about something no one warned us about before having kids: they’re basically tiny, adorable money vacuums. From diapers to daycare to the 42 snack options they’ll refuse to eat—we’re just out here hemorrhaging cash.This week, we’re chatting with the amazing Caleb Frankel, co-founder of EarlyBird, the investing app that helps families build generational wealth, one gift at a time. He’s giving us the lowdown on how to actually save for your kids, what accounts make sense, and how to stop feeling like you’re already financially behind before kindergarten even starts.Whether you’re a budgeting wizard or just trying not to overdraft buying organic pouches, this episode is packed with real talk, smart money tips, and of course, laughs. Because if we’re gonna go broke... at least we’ll do it together.#InAnotherLifePod #FinanceForMoms #MoneyTalks #EarlyBirdInvesting #MyKidIsExpensive #GenerationalWealthButMakeItFunny

Ah, postpartum style—the impossible balancing act of wanting to look put-together-ish but also needing outfits that accommodate leaky boobs, a squishy midsection, and a deep emotional attachment to sweatpants. 🫠This week, Wren and Molly play a little catch-up on life, covering everything from Birkenstocks (fashion statement or just giving up?) to questionable tattoos (who let us make these choices?). Then, we dive into the wild world of postpartum fashion—aka, figuring out what to wear when your pre-baby jeans laugh in your face, and you refuse to buy another pair of leggings (but let’s be real, you will).Whether you’re still rocking maternity clothes, living in an identity crisis, or just here for the chaos, this episode is for you. Tune in for laughs, questionable style choices, and a few wardrobe hacks we wish we’d known sooner! 🎧💃 #InAnotherLifePod #MomStyleCrisis #PostpartumFashion #LeggingsArePants

Welcome to the postpartum fog—where time isn’t real, coffee is a food group, and you’ve lost your phone, your sanity, and probably your will to socialize. 🤪 This week, we’re diving into the messy, exhausting, and slightly unhinged reality of postpartum life, from sleep deprivation torture (we see you, 2 AM wake-ups) to the identity crisis no one warned us about.Luckily, we’ve got a postpartum doula joining us to help make sense of the madness—because apparently, there are ways to survive this phase without running away to a deserted island. (Interview starts at 16:30, for those too tired to listen to our rambling.)And because moms need vices, this week we’re shouting out Airtrack San Diego, the ultimate energy-burner for wild toddlers and stir-crazy kids. Because if we can’t sleep, at least we can wear them out enough to maybe get five minutes of peace. 🏃‍♂️💨https://www.airtrackparksd.com/ Tune in for laughs, survival tips, and a whole lot of “WTF just happened to my life?” 🎧 #InAnotherLifePod #PostpartumFog #MomBrain #SendCoffee #AirtrackSanDiego

They say you never really lose your groove, but let’s be real—after months of spit-up, contact naps, and talking exclusively in baby voices, stepping back into the real world post-maternity leave feels like an out-of-body experience. 😵‍💫This week, we’re tackling the wild transition back into the workforce, how to be social when you’d rather be in bed by 7PM, and what it actually feels like to be a woman in corporate America post-baby. (Spoiler: It’s a trip.)Plus, Wren shares her experience at a 500-person sales kickoff, where she traded in diaper bags for business casual and attempted to network without mentioning sleep regressions. (The results? Questionable.)And for our mommy vice of the week, we’re highlighting Torrey Holistics, because let’s be honest—sometimes, a little wine just doesn’t cut it. 🍃✨ As a California-based dispensary, they offer edibles, CBD, and other legal cannabis goodies to help moms take the edge off in a state-approved, totally guilt-free way. Because if bedtime negotiations were a sport, we’d all be Olympic-level stressed.So grab your coffee, wine, or whatever’s legal in your state, and tune in! 🎧 #InAnotherLifePod #BackToWork #MomLife #TorreyHolistics #MomsNeedVicesToohttps://torreyholistics.com/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11047346/
