244. Why Are All Millenial Moms Obsessed with Watching "Off Campus" Right Now? Jun 10, 2026

Show notes

Pamela has officially reached the point where every conversation somehow circles back to "Off Campus." Karen cannot understand the obsession. Pamela cannot understand how Karen is not watching. So naturally, we had to dedicate an entire episode to it. This week on Motherish, we’re diving into why so many millennial moms are completely hooked on "Off Campus." Is it the nostalgia? The teen drama? The emotional support characters? The escape from real life? Probably all of the above. From teenie-bopper energy to full-blown emotional investment, we unpack why this show has moms everywhere staying up too late, texting their friends theories and feeling entirely too attached to fictional teenagers.

243. From Caregiver to Co-Adventurer May 27, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of Motherish, we’re talking about what it’s been like visiting Walt Disney World with our 6 and 7 year olds and how the experience has shifted from full-time caregiving to true co-adventuring. From seeing them take in the magic more deeply to watching their personalities shine through every ride and character interaction, this stage feels different in the best way. We’re also sharing practical Disney tips, ways to save money, perks worth knowing about and the small moments that ended up becoming our favorite memories. A little heartfelt, a little helpful and full of Disney magic.

242. Doing Disney Without Doing It All May 20, 2026

Show notes

Disney trips can feel magical… and overwhelming. As moms, there’s so much pressure to fit everything in, make every moment special and somehow stay fully present through it all. In this episode of Motherish, we’re talking about slowing down and experiencing Disney in a way that feels more meaningful and less exhausting. From new ways to enjoy the parks during Cool Kids’ Summer to letting go of the pressure to “do it all,” this conversation is equal parts practical, heartfelt and full of pixie dust. If you’ve ever left a vacation feeling like you needed another vacation, this one’s for you.

241. Motherhood, Style & Finding Yourself Again — with Uti Torres May 06, 2026

Show notes

Today’s episode is for every mom who has stood in front of her closet and wondered, Who was I before this? We’re joined by Miami-based style consultant and mom Uti Torres for a conversation about personal style, confidence and identity after motherhood. Uti believes getting dressed is about so much more than fashion. It is about reconnecting with yourself, evolving without losing who you are and learning to feel good in your own skin again. We talk about how motherhood changes the way we see ourselves, why style can be a powerful form of self-expression and how small shifts can help women feel more confident and grounded in this season of life.

240. The Identity You Choose vs. The One You’re Given — with Shadee Apr 22, 2026

Show notes

What happens when the culture you pass down to your children isn’t just where you’re from… but also what you chose? Today on Motherish, we’re joined by Shadee, known online as “The Tropical Persian,” a Persian American mom with a Latina soul. Her journey with Spanish, Latin culture and life in Puerto Rico didn’t come from where she was born, but from what she was drawn to. In this episode, we talk about identity through a motherhood lens: the difference between the identity you’re given and the one you build for yourself, and how that shapes the way we raise our kids. How do you pass down cultures you deeply love? How do you create a sense of belonging that isn’t confined to one label?

239. Becoming More Than One Version of Yourself — with Paula Arenas Apr 08, 2026

Show notes

Motherhood is often framed as either losing yourself… or finally finding yourself. But what if it’s something more complex than that? Today on Motherish, we’re joined by Latin GRAMMY–nominated artist and mom Paula Arenas to talk about identity, evolution and what it really means to grow through motherhood. We explore the idea that becoming a mother doesn’t erase who you were, but instead expands you into multiple versions of yourself all at once. From creativity and career to personal transformation, this conversation is an honest look at holding onto who you’ve been while stepping into who you’re becoming.

238. Redefining Inclusion — with María Jacobo Apr 01, 2026

Show notes

In honor of Autism Awareness Month, we’re joined by María Jacobo, PhD — a mom, advocate and leading voice in the neurodiversity space. Through her personal journey, María has supported her own family while also spending the past decade creating meaningful opportunities for autistic adults to thrive. Her work challenges outdated ideas of inclusion and pushes us to think more deeply about what true support looks like at home, in the workplace and in our communities. In this episode of Motherish, we talk about parenting, advocacy and how we can all move toward a more inclusive and understanding world.

237. Music, Motherhood & Cultura — with Jessi León Mar 25, 2026

Show notes

Today on Motherish, we’re sitting down with Jessi León — artist, mom and one half of the Latin Grammy–nominated duo behind PJ Kids. Jessi is creating something truly special, a space where music, family and culture come together in a way that feels joyful, intentional and deeply rooted in identity. We talk about raising kids through music, honoring cultura in everyday life and what it looks like to build something meaningful while navigating motherhood. This conversation is all about creativity, connection and the ways we pass down who we are to our children.
