Green flags in relationships and finding love after heartbreak

In this powerful and deeply honest episode of Between Us Moms, we welcome back bestselling author and returning guest Sarah Hoover for a conversation that every mother—and mother-to-be—needs to hear.
Since her last appearance, Sarah has traveled the globe promoting her critically acclaimed book "The Motherload," now available in paperback and currently being adapted into a television series. Along the way, she uncovered something striking: women everywhere are desperate for a space to talk openly about the realities of motherhood. From intrusive thoughts in the early postpartum weeks to the silent weight so many mothers carry, Sarah shares what she learned after meeting thousands of women who felt unheard, overwhelmed, and alone.
We dive into the universal truths of motherhood, including the shocking realization that many women—even into their 70s—never recognized they experienced postpartum depression until reading "The Motherload." Sarah opens up about why owning your truth as a mother is essential and why no one deserves to spend decades disconnected from their own experience.
Sarah also takes us behind the scenes of "The Motherload" TV adaptation, discussing the growing wave of honest storytelling about motherhood in Hollywood. She shares her dream casting (including her pick for who should play her), reveals that several high-profile moms have reached out to support the project, and reflects on how motherhood transcends status, fame, and access.
In this episode, we also talk about:
Why mothers need to have hard, honest conversations—not just for themselves, but for their children
The cultural shift toward more authentic portrayals of motherhood in media
Sarah’s thoughts on the controversial article about mothers who regret having children
Her personal “mama hot takes,” including breaking free from Instagram addiction
The biggest myth she believes we need to stop telling new moms

Plus, Sarah shares the simple but powerful practice that makes her feel whole as a mother—and why being present matters more than ever.
This is an unfiltered, validating, and inspiring conversation about modern motherhood, mental health, postpartum experiences, and the importance of community.
🎧 If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, unseen, or questioned your experience as a mom, this episode will remind you: you are not alone.

In this inspiring and deeply honest episode of Between Us Moms, we sit down with world-renowned climber Emily Harrington—a 5-time U.S. National Champion and the first woman to successfully free climb Yosemite’s iconic Golden Gate route on El Capitan in a single day. Known for redefining what’s possible both on and off the wall, Emily has built a career on resilience, ambition, and pushing limits—and now, she’s navigating her most transformative role yet: motherhood. (And yes—her documentary Girl Climber was recently nominated for a Sports Emmy.)
In this conversation, Emily opens up about how becoming a mom has fundamentally reshaped her identity, her priorities, and what fulfillment looks like in this new season of life. Once driven by clear career milestones and the pressure of a ticking biological clock, she shares how intentional she was about the timing of motherhood—and how much her perspective has shifted since welcoming her son in 2022. Now on the other side, she reflects on the unexpected joy and clarity she’s found, describing herself as “super happy” in a way she didn’t fully anticipate.
We also dive into the persistent question so many women face: Can you really have it all? Emily offers a candid and refreshing take, calling the expectation itself an “exhausting narrative.” Instead, she explores how motherhood has redefined what “having it all” even means—and why that definition is allowed to evolve over time.
This episode is a thoughtful exploration of ambition, identity, and the quiet (and not-so-quiet) transformations that come with becoming a parent. Emily speaks to the tension between striving and surrendering, and how motherhood doesn’t just add to your life—it reshapes what you want from it entirely.
If you’ve ever felt caught between who you were and who you’re becoming, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, grounded, and more at ease with the ever-evolving nature of it all.
