Motherish

We spend so much time talking about age gaps in relationships, but what about friendships? In this episode of Motherish, we're exploring the beautiful, unexpected friendships that happen between moms of different ages and life stages. Whether your closest mom friend is 10 years older, 15 years younger or somewhere in between, these relationships often bring wisdom, fresh perspectives and a reminder that motherhood connects us far more than age ever could.

Welcome back to Motherish! In today’s episode, we’re reflecting on how much we’ve changed since we first hit record. Motherhood has shifted us. Life has stretched us. And this podcast has grown right alongside us. We’re diving into our evolution, the lessons we didn’t see coming, and the ways we are not the same women who started this journey. We’re so glad you’re here. Welcome back to Motherish.
