Bronze Medal Moms
Bronze Medal Moms is the podcast for women who are done chasing perfection and ready to embrace the beautifully messy reality of motherhood.
Hosted by Amy Welch and Amanda Grubb, two longtime friends and moms who are just trying to keep the wheels on the bus (literally and figuratively), this show is a celebration of the parents who show up late, forget picture day, serve cereal for dinner—and still love their kids like crazy.
Through honest conversations, hilarious confessions, and the occasional “oops,” Bronze Medal Moms reminds you that you don’t have to win gold to be doing a great job.
If you’ve ever felt like the only mom not crushing a Pinterest-worthy routine, this space is for you.
Because good enough is good enough. And bronze? Still a medal.

The Mental Load with Paige Connell
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Last week we talked about mom exhaustion. This week we’re naming what’s underneath it: the mental load.
You know the one — the constant running list in your brain of everything that needs to be planned, remembered, scheduled, anticipated, and managed for your entire household.
In this episode, Amy and Amanda sit down with Paige Connell, creator of the viral platform SheIsAPaigeTurner, to talk about what the mental load actually is and why so many moms feel like they’re carrying it alone.
We discuss why “just tell me what to do” doesn’t actually solve the problem, how conditioning and societal expectations play into who carries the load, and how couples can start having real conversations about sharing it more equitably.
If you’ve ever thought, Why am I the only one who knows when the dentist appointment is? — this episode is for you.
Because sometimes the first step toward change is finally having the words to explain what you’ve been feeling all along.
