I absolutely love this podcast. The hosts are so thoughtful (and hilarious) and always seem to cover topics I’ve been curious about—with a fresh perspective, compassion and curiosity. A must-listen for parents and really any engaged person in this mixed-up world. 10/10!

I love being given the opportunity to laugh at my own thought traps alongside these two wise ones as well as dive deep into the wisdom of some of our most important thinkers on that subject that shapes most of my decisions: motherhood in all its valences. Thank you for sharing your thoughtwork and vulner... more
This has become one of my favorite podcasts. The hosts’ nuanced and thoughtful look at motherhood makes the show stand out among the many parenting podcasts out there. It’s a fun, accessible listen that has also made me think differently about parenting related topics.
As a dad, I'm a big Mother Of It All fan. Enjoyable, interesting, and never judge-y. Conversations and guests make me think differently about my own parenting. Relevant for parents, obv, but also really for anyone who is interested in building a more caring and empathetic world during tough times.
This podcast is a dear companion and I’m grateful for the intention, wisdom, reverence and relatability on so many levels. A must-listen for any parents looking for a nuanced, thoughtful look at mother culture.
