They Want Space… But Still Want Snacks

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 10:00:00 GMT

In this epsiode we get real about the “bubble” , that sweet spot where friendship, trust, and boundaries collide. We share stories of teenagers making rebellious moves (like hiding tequila in laundry baskets – yes, really!) and teach how patterns, signs, and a good analogy can reveal what’s really going on in your kid’s brain. Plus, discover how to teach resilience by letting them walk in the rain, even if it means soaking wet kids and parents.

You’ll discover:

Why life's “boring” moments are actually gifts (and how chaos could be a sign you’re doing okay).
The surprising reasons teenagers are secretly testing boundaries — from “not coming home on purpose” to ditching curfews with Uber secret missions.
How to decode your child's behavior through patterns — and why calling them “weird” might be your best compliment.
The truth about psychic predictions, casinos, and how life’s a game you play, not a slot machine you hope to hit the jackpot on.
Practical parenting hacks that help kids build independence without losing sight of their safety.

This episode is perfect for parents drowning in laundry, teens who are flying the coop, or anyone trying to keep their kids a little less “drama” and a lot more “trust.” Because in the end, the bubble isn’t about control — it’s about giving your kids the space to grow, stumble, and come back stronger.

Join Cat & Nat as they turn chaos into clarity, rebellion into resilience, and remind you why sometimes, you just gotta let them fall — so they can learn how to fly.

The Weirdest Phase in Parenting..Is This One!

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 04:00:00 GMT

Your toddler didn't come with a manual. Neither does your teenager and honestly? It's so much weirder.

Cat & Nat are back pulling absolutely zero punches on the part of parenting nobody talks about: the older kids. The ones who can technically do their own laundry but somehow still can't. This week they're getting into garbage-bag parenting tactics, the totally different puzzle that is every single kid you raise, and the absolute fever dream of teaching a teenager to drive.

Spoiler: someone gripped the dashboard. Someone else may have cried.

Come for the chaos. Stay for the moment you realize you're not alone and maybe, just maybe, you're doing okay. Even if your dishwasher is still half-empty.

In this episode, we're unpacking what your child's device habits actually reveal about their sleep, mood, and mental health, and why understanding those patterns is your new parenting superpower. We're also shifting the conversation from "no phones" to building real digital self-control because rules without awareness don't stick. We dive into how tools like Aura Parents are helping families decode their kids' digital lives, from screen pickups to offline time, so you can parent with data, not just gut instinct. If you're tired of guessing, this one's for you.

Of course someone with ADHD forgot their ADHD medication.

We're talking about what those days actually feel like without your medication: the brain fog, the overstimulation, the trying-to-read-a-campus-map-while-someone-is-talking-to-you experience. And the reality of living with ADHD.

And underneath all of it the pressure of wanting to be locked in and fully present for your daughter during a trip that actually matters.

Spoiler: you survived. And it might have even been a little funny in retrospect.

A story about ADHD, road trips, and showing up for your kid even when your brain has left the building.

Interviewing Haley Jackman: How Tiktok Ruined my University Experience

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Most teens think university is where you magically become a fully formed adult.

Haley Jackman learned it’s more like being dropped into a jungle — with a ring light and a comment section watching your every move.

At 19, the Canadian influencer arrived on Western’s campus with a growing platform and an unfiltered voice. What followed? Viral headlines, social fallout, brand deals that funded Golden Gooses — and the hard realization that adulthood doesn’t come with instructions.

In this episode, Haley opens up about:

What happens when you post your real-time confessions online
The social cost of being “known” on campus
Why normal isn’t always the goal
The glitter and grit of influencer life
And why walking away from college can be just as brave as sticking it out

We talk about identity, criticism, independence, and the quiet power of choosing solitude over cliques. Haley shares how social media became both her shield and her sword — and why she’s now building something even bigger from her unfiltered truth.

If you’re a teen carving your own path, a parent trying to understand social media culture, or someone who’s ever felt behind in the “grown-up” race, this episode is for you.

Because sometimes the bravest thing you can do… is admit you don’t have all the answers.

The Truth About Workout Sets, Matching Leggings & Why Lululemon Is Dead to Us

Fri, 27 Feb 2026 11:00:00 GMT

Are we all stuck in a Lululemon time warp… or did the gym turn into a matching-set cult overnight?

This week, Cat & Nat talk “cool girl workout uniform” and ask the question no one wants to say out loud: are we dressing to sweat… or to audition for Instagram?

From shiny ponytails and half-bra sets to the silent pressure of looking 27 forever, we’re breaking down how gym culture quietly became a fashion show — and why some of us are still clinging to leggings from 2014 like they’re a personality trait.

We get into:

• The rise and fall of “it brands” (yes, we said it).

• Why matching sets feel like a personality test.

• The subtle panic of realizing you might have aged out of “cool.”

• How to dress for your actual body and life — not a 23-year-old influencer’s feed.

• Why confidence hits harder than any $180 sports bra ever will.

If you’ve ever stood in front of your closet thinking, “Am I trying to be trendy… or do I just want to feel good?” this episode is your permission slip to choose happy.

No fashion rules. No influencer math. Just real talk about getting dressed, getting older, and getting comfortable owning both.

Because the real flex? Wearing what you love and not caring who disagrees.

We dive into the real-life breakdown of watching your kids grow up, the trauma of them leaving the nest, and the secret desire to hit pause on the entire process. You’ll discover why all the “kids grow up so fast” advice is a total lie, and how the biggest surprises come when you least expect them like realizing that adulting is just giant emotional rollercoaster with no seat belts. Also, get this the truth about favorite cities, the highs and lows of university fears, and why retirement homes might be the only peace left in this madness.

Our candid chats cover everything from obsessively planning their college escape routes, to that gut-twisting moment when you see their tiny hands turn into big decisions. You'll learn how to survive kids’ crises, keep your sanity, and what really happens when your role shifts from protector to spectator.

This episode is perfect if you’re tired of pretending you have it all together, or just want to laugh through the tears. Spoiler: It’s a hot mess for everyone, and that’s totally okay. Because, let’s be honest if you’re still breathing, you’re winning the parenting game.

If We Were Single Today....

Remember when you were young and had a crush...you hung out with the same friend group, drank a bit, made out a little, and suddenly you were together. Basically, if you were talking to someone, you were dating them. Fast forward to today and we genuinely don’t understand the rules anymore.

The Person You Married Is Not the Person You Will Divorce

Tue, 03 Feb 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Divorce is an act of courage. It takes bravery to choose a different life, especially when kids are involved. Women aren’t leaving because they’re giving up — they’re leaving because they believe they deserve happiness and want to model healthy relationships for their children. It's a complicated decision. No one prepares you for this. And the person you married is not the person you divorce!

Parenting Unfiltered: Empowering Parents in the Digital Age

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 12:00:00 GMT

We sat down with Antigone Davis, Global Head of Safety at Meta, to talk about what online safety for teens really looks like these days. With 83% of Canadian parents supporting app-store age verification, it’s clear families want practical ways to keep teens safe online. Antigone breaks down how Meta’s Teen Accounts give kids meaningful protections while keeping parents involved. She also shares why collaboration between parents, teens, and tech companies is so important for supporting young people and helping families feel more confident for the digital years ahead.

Midlife with a Sex Life

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 12:00:00 GMT

We’re talking about desire — where it started and where it went. Has our definition of sexual desire changed over time… or did life just get in the way? Nat used to be a full-on walking horndog but the mental load of motherhood kind of got in the way. We want to know, does desire disappear when kids are little but then come roaring back when they leave the house? Or does empty nesting just put a giant spotlight on your relationship with zero excuses left?

Food Noise, Weight Loss and Obsessive Thoughts

Tue, 27 Jan 2026 12:00:00 GMT

We’re talking bodies, aging, food noise, and Oprah and Serena Williams making headlines around GLP-1s. PSA, will power is not the whole story. If you’ve ever wondered why food feels louder for some people, why “just eat less” misses the point, or how aging changes the way you see your body and your health — this one's for you.

Spoiler Alert! We are talking about the steamy, intense, can’t-look-away show Heated Rivalry!

Unlocking Your Kids...

Tue, 20 Jan 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Teens start to sail away. One minute they’re cuddly, the next they’re distant, and the easy check-ins are gone. Now the challenge is unlocking that connection. Sometimes it’s a car ride, sometimes it’s shoveling snow together. It’s not about rules or routines anymore, it’s about us showing up and connecting on a deeper level.

Parenting Unfiltered: Parenting Is Not for the Weak

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 14:01:42 GMT

What defines good parenting and how do you know if you’re doing it right? In the first ten years, we felt like we were exceeding expectations—an A+—even though it was physically and mentally exhausting. There were routines and the satisfaction of giving kids structure. Parenting changes as they get older. Now, it’s about sharing the role, letting them make their own decisions, and shifting into more of a coaching mindset. Parenting is the ultimate freight train ride.

Is this Phase "Fine"......?

Fri, 16 Jan 2026 12:00:00 GMT

In this episode, Cat and Nat explore the complexities of relationships, particularly focusing on the challenges of maintaining intimacy amidst the chaos of parenting. They candidly discuss how their attention is often diverted to their children, leaving little room for romantic connections. Despite this, both express a sense of stability in their marriages, acknowledging that while date nights may not be a priority, their relationships remain strong. The conversation shifts to the importance of human connection, illustrated through a story about a young woman rowing solo across the Atlantic, highlighting the balance between independence and the need for companionship.
As the discussion progresses, Cat and Nat delve into the darker side of relationships, touching on the psychology of individuals who commit heinous acts, such as murder. They reflect on how seemingly normal people can harbor dark secrets, emphasizing the importance of understanding the underlying factors that contribute to such behaviors. The episode wraps up with a humorous take on dining experiences, particularly the frustrations of expensive meals and the desire for free bread, showcasing their relatable and light-hearted approach to serious topics.

Never Trust a Fart: A Colonoscopy Story

Tue, 13 Jan 2026 13:00:00 GMT

Cat decided to be proactive with her health and booked a colonoscopy and what followed was a masterclass in anticipation, oversharing, and full-body surrender. The wait for the prep drink to kick in felt eerily similar to waiting to go into labor. Constant check-ins of “Has it happened yet?” and then suddenly… a total system cleanse. We’re talking power-hose energy. Nothing left behind. It’s a very real reminder that taking care of your health sometimes means pulling your pants down. The big takeaway? Never trust a fart.

Parenting Unfiltered: Failure to Launch

Mon, 12 Jan 2026 13:00:00 GMT

Parenting teens feels like uncharted territory. It doesn’t get easier, it just changes. This might be one of the most challenging phases yet: helping our kids learn how to launch. What used to be a natural progression into independence now feels far less automatic, and more dependent on us. We love that our kids still want to be close, but does that closeness help them grow or quietly hold them back? Will we have to literally push them out of the nest? And how much should they really be sharing with us?

Hollywood Mom Groups

Fri, 09 Jan 2026 13:00:00 GMT

We all know how important a mom group can be for your mental health and support, especially when you don’t have family around. Mom groups are supposed to be your safe space… until they leave you out in the cold. We’re talking about Ashley Tisdale feeling excluded from a celeb mom group that included none other than Hilary Duff. If you’ve ever found yourself on the outside of a group thinking, What did I do? What’s wrong with me? Follow that up with: Why would I even want to be around people who make me feel like this? We want to hear from you!

Unapologetically Martha

Tue, 06 Jan 2026 13:00:00 GMT

Every girl needs to watch Martha Stewart’s documentary. Martha is peak feminist goals! She ran the world and didn’t apologize for it. A man would have been praised for doing half the stuff she did, but Martha got called a b!tch. No dad ever hears that he's “non-paternal” for not staying home with the kids—so why did we shame Martha like that? Then, she went to prison, came out swinging, and somehow even scored a new BFF in Snoop!

We promise to be back soon with new episodes but life is just life'ing. In this repeat episode Nat shares how not one, but two people completely broke down in tears right in front of her. And while we all get that emotions can run high, Nat is definitely not the “let’s hug it out” type. After today’s episode, it’s clear she’s also not the shoulder to cry on type. Nat prefers to shut it down before things get too carried away!

Hold Space For The Messy Days

Tue, 30 Dec 2025 13:00:00 GMT

In this repeat episode we’re talking about holding space for the “ugly” days—the ones where life just feels messy. Maybe you do the same thing as yesterday, but it still feels off. And if we need space to have an ugly day then guess what? So do our kids. Let’s normalize not loving every single moment. Stop fighting the feeling—there’s always tomorrow, or even later today. It’s okay if things don’t change. Bad days happen… for you, and for your kids. And that’s completely fine.

In this repeat episode, we’re celebrating the next powerhouse generation of girls.

In this repeat episode we are bringing you another parenting conundrum: you decide to spend your life with someone… but how much of the really important stuff do you actually talk about first?

Where Our Confidence Comes From

Tue, 16 Dec 2025 13:00:00 GMT

We’re talking about confidence, the real, unshakeable kind. And we know exactly where ours came from: our moms, who truly didn’t give a f*ck and showed us what it looks like to be confident. Confidence gets passed down. Be the example. Raise kids who know they belong. Because confidence is taught, lived, and inherited. We want to hear from you! What brings you those tiny pieces of confidence? What makes you feel like you’ve done a good job today?

Parenting Unfiltered: Unlocking How Your Kids’ Brain Works

Mon, 15 Dec 2025 15:45:48 GMT

This is a personal story. Everyone's story is different. This is our story. Kids are masters at being chameleons. They don't want to be different or learn differently. They are very good at hiding their struggles, until one day the wheels come off. Teachers and school systems are not always equipped to fully understand learning disabilities. But you don’t have to rely on the system to teach your child how they learn. Understanding your child’s IEP, their brain, and giving them tools to navigate their challenges can help give them a roadmap to succeed on their own terms. We celebrate effort over perfection, understand gaps instead of shaming them, and help our kids grow confident. All we want to do is protect their confidence. You can get back everything else, but you can't get back confidence.

Mars vs. Venus: We’re Still Trying to Figuring It Out

Fri, 12 Dec 2025 15:38:47 GMT

We’re diving into the classic relationship book 'Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus' because some things about the opposite sex will never make sense. Men try to fix our feelings, women try to fix the men, and everyone ends up feeling unappreciated and annoyed. This book stayed on The New York Times best-seller list for 121 weeks, and yet we still have no clue how the opposite sex works. Should we bring back this ’90s classic?

A December to Remember Recap!

Tue, 09 Dec 2025 14:25:32 GMT

It’s a little “December to Remember” recap, and this one was so much fun! We’ve been doing this for ten years now! We were twelve people sleeping on a bus like a very loud, very tired summer camp. There were salaries, flights, food, and back-to-back shows where we somehow got up and delivered the exact same energy night after night. Now we pull it all together for one BIG night in Toronto. The magic you see on stage comes with a whole lot of behind-the-scenes chaos. And at the end of it all, we’re always watching your faces in the crowd, hoping we’re bringing you a little excitement and a little break from the everyday!

Parenting Unfiltered: Inside Roblox: Why Parents Should Be Paying Attention

Mon, 08 Dec 2025 13:00:00 GMT

Before we did the research on Roblox, we honestly thought it was just a simple video game. Most parents probably do. But the reality is far more complicated. Roblox is a massive gaming platform with millions of user-created games inside it. Anyone can build a game, and kids can jump in and play — which means there’s essentially no real regulation. And because kids are kids, they don’t always recognize what’s happening. Groomers often pretend to be the same age as the child they’re interacting with, and they know exactly how to move conversations off the platform where they can’t be traced. These people are highly skilled at what they do, which is why parents need to know what’s really happening behind the scenes. We created a guide to help you navigate it all at https://www.thecommonparent.com/.

This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need to for your teens & tweens. We've uncovered every parenting issue, so you don't have too.

Cat's Divorce Story

Fri, 05 Dec 2025 13:01:59 GMT

We are chatting about the rise of grey divorce and something even quieter, the silent divorce, when couples quietly unravel without ever officially announcing a thing. Cat opens up about her own divorce story and how it shaped her. And if you’re a parent going through it, put your sh*t aside. Your shrapnel doesn’t need to land on your kids. Be the grown-up. They don’t need the messy details, they need stability, they need love, and they need to see you happy. Divorce is complicated. Your kids shouldn’t have to pay for it. Leave us your divorce stories! How did you get through it? How did the kids?

We’re diving headfirst into Nat’s true-crime obsession, because apparently murder mysteries are her version of self-care. One of us cannot figure out the appeal.

From Empty Nest to Holiday Naughtiness

Fri, 28 Nov 2025 13:00:00 GMT

We are bringing you a repeat of one of your faves for Thanksgiving Friday! We covered it all in this one—from the bedroom to the big screen. First up: Viagra. Why do men get an instant boost with that little blue pill, while women are still waiting for something to spark their libido? Next, we’re tackling the empty nester myth. Do couples really heat things up once the kids move out, or is that just wishful thinking? And of course, we’re talking holiday movies—is it just us, or are they getting way naughtier?

The ExExperts Talk Divorce

Tue, 25 Nov 2025 13:00:00 GMT

We had to bring back one of our all-time fave BFF stories! Jessica Herzberg and T.H. Irwin are basically the ultimate besties who got engaged, married, and divorced—pretty much all at the same time. Because they couldn’t find the resources they needed during their own divorces, they created exEXPERTS and the Divorce Etc… podcast. They’re here to remind you: divorce sucks, but it doesn’t define you—unless you let it.

Parenting Unfiltered: Doomscrolling and Why We Do It

Mon, 24 Nov 2025 13:00:00 GMT

We’re talking about doom scrolling — why we do it, why our kids do it, and how it can quietly become the way we mute feelings we don’t want to deal with. Scrolling can make you feel everything, or it can make you feel nothing at all. Either way, it pulls you out of your own life without you even noticing. At some point, your kids will need to study or focus without you taking the phone away from them, and understanding their doom-scrolling habits is important for both you and them.

This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need to for your teens & tweens. We've uncovered every parenting issue, so you don't have too.

The Truth About Married Sex

Fri, 21 Nov 2025 15:28:50 GMT

Marriage and relationships aren’t all candlelight and spontaneous passion. Sex can feel like a chore, and desire doesn’t just magically appear. Women are carrying all the mental load—and it’s exhausting. Men? They’re just horny. From feeling like a house manager instead of a partner, to forgetting to flirt, laugh, and touch, we’re breaking down why intimacy fades and how to bring the spark back in a long-term relationship.

Parenting Unfiltered: Parenting Boys Through Rejection

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 13:00:00 GMT

We’re talking about an important part of growing up that often gets overlooked: rejection. Boys need to know that being broken up with isn’t something to be embarrassed about. Not every connection is a fit. Admitting they were rejected isn’t a weakness — it’s part of learning who they are and how to move forward in a healthy way. When we normalize rejection, we help them build resilience and emotional confidence. As parents, our job is to keep the conversation open and ongoing so our kids understand that rejection is a normal part of life.

The Magic of Younger Men

Fri, 14 Nov 2025 13:00:00 GMT

Men and women run differently—and let’s face it, we usually get them more than they get us. In this repeat episode we chat about whether an older woman and a younger man actually make the perfect pair? When you mix her experience with his fresh perspective, wisdom with curiosity, something sparks. A young guy who’s still learning isn’t insecure—he’s open, adaptable, and maybe that’s exactly where the magic lives.

We Survived a Media Trip: Punta Cana Edition

Tue, 11 Nov 2025 15:16:32 GMT

We just got back from a media trip to Club Med Punta Cana! We met real influencers (the ones who actually do this for a living), and wow, it’s a hard job. It feels like you don’t have control or power over your life and that someone is dictating what you’re worth. They literally hit the ground running and didn’t stop. No one really knew who we were — and that’s just fine, because we know that the moms know who we are!

Fri, 07 Nov 2025 13:00:00 GMT

It’s appointment season for Nat—colonoscopy, mammogram, heart check, dermatologist—you name it, she’s booked it. We’re talking blood, heart, boobs, face… the full tune-up! And because balance is everything, while we were in the Dominican, Nat stocked up on some of the good over-the-counter stuff to round things out. From midlife maintenance to Dominican travel hacks, we’re covering it all.

Are We Seriously Back On the Pill?

Tue, 04 Nov 2025 16:07:17 GMT

Our hormones are all over the place and we’re just trying to keep up. We’re talking about what happens when your hormone levels start doing their own thing, how finding the right medication feels like a full-time job (and a reminder that we’re absolutely not doctors, just two women trying to find the right balance), and why every Google search somehow leads to more confusion. We’re also getting real about aging and the habits that actually help. Basically, if there’s something you don’t want to do… it probably means you should be doing it.

Cat Wants To Write Naughty Books

Tue, 28 Oct 2025 12:00:00 GMT

Cat wants to write a smut book. For moms like us. Most erotica and smut books out there follow the same formulas: hot, young, tight… and basically nothing for our age group. There’s a serious gap in the genre, and it’s about time moms got the sexy, relatable stories we’ve been missing.

Parenting Unfiltered: Grok We Need to Talk

Mon, 27 Oct 2025 12:00:00 GMT

We had to talk about the big thing this week that’s so disturbing — the creepiness of Grok. Who programmed this thing?? It’s asking inappropriate questions (yes, even about n*des), and it’s raising a big red flag for moms everywhere. X’s chatbot is already known to be a little naughty, but what happens when this kind of tech ends up in the hands of curious teens? We need to keep our kids safe in a world that’s moving a little too fast.

If Men Went Through Perimenopause

Fri, 24 Oct 2025 12:00:00 GMT

Perimenopause is confusing, frustrating, and way too misunderstood, even by some doctors. There’s not enough clarity, and women are often left to navigate it on their own, sorting through conflicting advice and wondering what’s normal, what’s treatable, and what can be ignored. If men went through menopause, there’d be a pill, a treatment, and a full wellness plan for every symptom!

The Noise-Cancelling Generation

Tue, 21 Oct 2025 12:00:00 GMT

We don’t know what we’ve done to our kids until they grow up. That’s when it hits you — the blind spots, the “we just wanted to help” moments, the realization that our kids might actually be spoiled. We’ve been their autopilot since day one — the more involved we are, the more they tune out. And now they’re walking around with noise-cancelling headphones on. Literally and metaphorically.

We’re thrilled to tackle this timely topic with lawyer Duncan Embury, who’s representing four major Ontario school boards in a landmark case against Meta, TikTok, and Snapchat. He explains why schools are pushing back, how these platforms are impacting kids’ learning and mental health, and why this legal fight matters for parents and families who are trying to navigate the social media landscape. Social media is the "white van" of our generation. Get informed. For more info visit https://neinstein.com/personal-injury-lawyers-areas-of-expertise/social-media-lawsuit.

Don't Lose Your Identity

Fri, 17 Oct 2025 12:00:00 GMT

Marriage can be a tricky beast — one minute you’re in love, the next you’ve somehow merged into one person with the same opinions, friends, and weekend plans. We’re here to say, don’t do that! Keeping your own friends, hobbies, and goals isn’t just healthy — it’s what keeps things fresh. Real trust means letting each other live. Because if you merge too hard into his world, you might wake up one day realizing you’ve disappeared from your own.
