EP597: This week’s solo episode is a little life lately catch-up, and honestly, it’s a good one.
I’m recapping our trip to Club Med Miches Playa Esmeralda where we podcasted, pickle-balled our little hearts out, and fully leaned into vacation mode. It was one of those trips that just hits.
I also have to talk about my mom, because she absolutely thrived in the Dominican. Like… living her best life, no notes. It inspired her to start sharing more of her life, travels, and this next chapter, and I’m so excited about it.
You can follow along with her at @lifewithsusieq (you’re going to love her).
We also get into:
What I’ve been reading lately (book recs you’ll want to add to your list ASAP)
My very humbling return to running… hello sore ankles and groin muscles??
And my upcoming trip to Charleston (!!), a place I’ve wanted to visit forever

It’s chatty, it’s real, it’s a little all over the place, in the best way.

This week on The Mom Room, Renee is joined by Jessie Inchauspé, aka the Glucose Goddess. Jessie's scientific background has helped her reach a massive audience where she shares through her own personal health journey (mental and physical) how to make informed choices when it comes to nutrition. Jessie explains how her new book, 9 Months That Count Forever, came to be and what she uncovered about the female body by digging into the science. Renee and Jessie discuss how disempowering the classic lines of "avoid cold cuts" and "don't eat sushi" are, and how there's actually so many cool things that pregnant women can add to their nutrition to feel empowered knowing that they are doing what's most optimal for their baby's growth, in utero and in life. Knowledge is power and if you are looking for more information on how to go about nutrition while pregnant, this episode is for you! And if you're wanting more - check out Jessie's book linked below!

I sat down with Cat & Nat from the stunning Club Med Miches Playa Esmeralda in the Dominican Republic to talk about something every parent of a tween or teen is navigating right now… screens, social media, and what’s actually happening online.
We dive into their “Common Parent” guide and break down the most popular apps kids are using today, and what parents might not realize about them.
We talk about:
The social media apps your kids are using (and what you need to know)
The parental control options most parents aren’t taking advantage of
Why Pinterest might be one of the most overlooked (and concerning) apps
Roblox - what parents think it is vs. what it actually is
How Cat & Nat navigated screens and social media with their own kids

If you have kids (or will one day), this is a must-listen.

Libby Ward joins The Mom Room this week to talk all about Honest Motherhood, which is coincidentally the title of her new book! Holding it all together all the time is unrealistic for mothers, yet society expects them to be the epitome of perfection. Libby shares her parenthood journey with Renee as they connect over shifting belief systems, partner dynamics, therapy, boundaries and how we have to be honest about our struggles so that we can figure out where to go. Please enjoy listening to Libby’s powerful story of losing her mind and finding herself, and check out her book linked below!
