March 26 2026: In today’s solo episode, I’m getting into a question I get a lot... my experience with ADHD medication, anxiety meds, and navigating perimenopause. I’m sharing what I’ve tried, what’s worked for me, what hasn’t, and what I’m thinking about doing next. If you’ve been curious about any of these or trying to figure out what might feel right for you, this one’s for you.

Then, we need to talk about a video I posted over the weekend. My 7-year-old and I were laughing about my extremely bloated belly and he called it a “big fat belly”… and the internet had thoughts. Some people felt it should have been a “teaching moment”... so let’s unpack that. I’m sharing my perspective on body talk, intention vs. impact, and why not every single moment needs to turn into a lesson.

Ep588. Renee chats with author Sarah Armstrong about her new book The Art of the Juggling Act. They explore why modern parenting can feel overwhelming compared to our parents’ generation and get real about the pressure to be everywhere, the mental and physical load moms carry, and ways to shift things sustainably. Sarah shares practical tools like her “Sunday List,” choosing one meaningful school involvement, and the “find a cupboard” rule for putting work and phones away to be more present at home. This is a bite-sized guide offering working parents simple ways to create small, meaningful moments with their kids that matter more than doing it all.

March 19 2026: Why am I more tired during March Break than a regular week? Make it make sense. In this solo episode, I’m sharing a real-time life update, from running on empty this week to becoming fully obsessed with my new Apple Watch and the sleep data that is both fascinating and… mildly alarming.

We’re also discussing the burpee situation that has left me physically unable to lift my arms (humbling, to say the least), plus a little life lately chat including the book I just finished and what I’ve started next.

A little chaotic, a little educational, very relatable. Enjoy!
