Our very first episode happens to be our #1 listened to episode and although that is statistically the case for any podcast, we know that you all loved listening to Nolan just as much as we did, so we're bringing it back. Nolan's perspective of having working parents is touching and heartfelt. He is wise beyond his 13 little years (almost 14!). We didn't prepare him for the questions we were going to ask, we just asked, and he delivered. Enjoy this weeks flash back to March of 2024 and we will be back with all new content next week. Stay fierce friends, and know that you are enough. XOXOA & L Ways to Listen!https://linktr.ee/themotherloadpod

Are you one of those people who knew early on the path you were going to take? All the boxes you needed to check off and the exact order you were going to do it? If so, this episode will speak to your soul. If not, I promise it will also speak to your soul. Emily truly bares it all with Amy and Lauren, as she takes us back all the way to childhood, sharing what it was like being the oldest and wisest sibling. We dive into a deep, heartfelt discussion about the control many of us seek to have over our lives, often to our detriment. A licensed professional counselor, certified rehabilitation counselor, wife, and mother of two, Emily brings an incredible perspective surrounding anxiety, and postpartum depression while she shares personal stories, emotions, and laughter. We are so thankful Emily brought an honest and raw conversation to The Mother Load and you're going to be too! Stay fierce friends, and know that you are enough.

This week's episode is with Audra Friends, one of Amy's besties from College (Go Broncos!) turned Tennessee Mama of 2! This week we met with Audra who was calling in from the beautiful state of TN, while her husband was on a 24 hour shift at the Fire Hall and her kiddos were hanging out in the other room. In the 1 hour window she had before a night of travel baseball with the kiddos, of course. Audra sheds some light on the good and the difficult parts of working from home full time while raising babies, living across the country from her Michigan family, and managing her family as a wife of a firefighter. She gets honest about how her journey has been difficult at times and what led her to where she is today. Craigslist roomies, Nashville adventures, and of course she shares what she would do if she had a day to herself with no responsibilities! Listen in and get to know and love this working mom as much as we do! Stay fierce friends, and know that you are enough. XOXOA & L
