Honest Mom Talk
Honest Mom Talk is the unfiltered podcast for moms who are tired of pretending everything’s fine and ready to have real conversations about motherhood, mental health, and making space for themselves.
Hosted by Molly and Jillian, this show dives deep into the messy realities of modern motherhood—burnout, mom rage, mental load, identity loss, setting boundaries, and the constant battle between caring for your kids and caring for yourself.
Each episode offers honest stories, expert insights, and practical tools to help you feel seen, supported, and more in control of your own motherhood journey. Whether you're drowning in mom guilt, touched out by bedtime, or wondering if you're the only one struggling—you’re not alone here.
This is the space where moms get real.
Because your needs matter. Your voice matters. And you still matter—beyond the role of "mom."
New episodes every week.
Let’s talk about the hard stuff—together.

In this episode of Honest Mom Talk, we open up about the collective disappointment so many of us are feeling right now — in people, in systems, and in the state of the world. She explores how that emotional weight seeps into our daily lives as mothers, partners, and friends, often leaving us feeling disillusioned, angry, or just plain tired.
We're gonna get real about what it means to hold onto hope when everything feels heavy, how to process frustration without turning it inward, and why honest emotional expression is essential to our mental health and connection with others.
You’ll walk away with practical tools for navigating disappointment, gentle reminders for protecting your peace, and inspiration to keep showing up — for yourself, your family, and your community.
Topics include:
- Understanding where disappointment really comes from
- The nervous system’s response to constant bad news
