  • Our Babies are Growing Up! Building Strong Bonds that Last Past Childhood
    Apr 27 2026

    The OG Bottle Service Baby turns FOUR this week and Sarah is all in her feels! In this episode, she reflects on how fast it all goes, discusses why BIRTHdays can bring complex emotions, and then chats about ways we can foster relationships with our kids that last into adulthood. Because yes, meeting their needs, keeping them safe, and raising good humans is one thing... but building a connection strong enough that they want to call you, confide in you, and hang out with you later in life? That’s a whole different ball game.

    In this episode we'll dive into the small, everyday things that help foster trust, connection, and closeness from the start, because we're not just raising kids, we’re building lifelong buds!

  • The Postpartum to Perimenopause Pipeline
    Apr 20 2026

    Many women are waiting later and later to start having babies, and this week we tackle the confusing gray area where hormone changes, lingering postpartum symptoms, and midlife shifts all come together - yay!

    This week we're joined by women’s midlife health expert Jennifer Gularson, PA-C, IFMCP to help us decipher, "is it Postpartum or Perimenopause?" She explains the early signs of perimenopause, how it can overlap with postpartum, and what’s actually going on in your body during this phase. Most importantly, we discuss all the things you you can do to start feeling like yourself again, because perimenopause is NOT a death sentence!

    Apr 13 2026

    Are we in the hardest phase of motherhood, or does it just feel like it? This week, Sarah is in full decompress mode—spiraling through another round of household illness and Bravo TV gossip (naturally). We talk about subtle mom shaming, being in the season of "cancelled plans" and what happens when the poeple you thought would have a relationship with your kids...dont.
