    Somatic Healing, Nervous System & Reparenting with Sarah Baldwin

    23/04/2026 | 52 mins.
    Sarah Baldwin joins us this week for one of the most powerful conversations we’ve had on the podcast. A somatic practitioner and educator, Sarah reminds us that tending to our own nervous systems is one of the most generous things we can do for our children. Our kids look to us to learn what safety and regulation feel like.

    We talk parts work, inner child healing, and how our nervous systems can “time travel,” reacting to the present through past experiences. Sarah breaks down how we’re constantly asking: is this safe, dangerous, or life-threatening? And how those answers are shaped by what we’ve lived through.

    We explore meeting our scared parts with compassion, not fear, and the healing that happens when we become the witness we may have never had. Plus, staying rooted in self even when we’re triggered, with the sequoia tree as a beautiful metaphor for that grounded, steady place we can return to.

    An episode on reparenting, regulation, and showing up for ourselves so we can show up for the people we love.

    Safety, Signals & Seasons with Sarah and Tez!

    16/04/2026 | 49 mins.
    We’re in one of those everything-at-once seasons. Sarah wraps up her dream job, Ocean hits 9 months (how??), Lotus “dadas” throughout the ep, and we spiral into the kids growing up, the paths we thought we’d take, and how we both somehow dodged university and landed in acting instead.

    We talk car accidents, near misses, and those moments that make you wonder if the universe is trying to get your attention. Plus Sarah’s clairaudience, and the difference between intrusive thoughts that feel loud and jarring vs intuition that lands quietly but sticks.

    There’s our new women’s circle chat, the beautiful upside of Teresa’s homeschooling experience, and those fleeting little moments where you catch yourself thinking: these are the days we’ll miss.

    We also get into communal living dreams, online dating horror stories, Uber safety, true crime paranoia, and how we’re navigating modern “stranger danger” with our kids (including protecting your algorithm… yes, really).

    Introducing Broad Daze! With Olivia Allen (and Rachel Bilson in spirit)

    09/04/2026 | 54 mins.
    This week we’re joined by our darling friend Olivia Allen; actress, producer, writer, and one half of the bestie duo behind The Broad Ideas pod with Rachel Bilson. 

    This is a come-back-to-yourself kind of episode.

    We’re talking full body yeses vs obligation energy, and learning how to trust what actually feels aligned.

    We dive into returning to your spiritual practices in seasons of chaos, plus human design, the teachings of Esther Hicks, signs from the universe, and intuition vs fear.

    We also touch on motherhood; having our hearts outside our bodies, how to reconcile that, and how to navigate it when intrusive thoughts start to creep in.

    There are also some strange (and slightly morbid) signs from the universe we attempt to unpack… plus a very cheeky journal throwback involving a certain list that has us questioning some teenage choices.

    Plus… we tease something we’re so excited about!! a new long-term partnership with Rachel and Olivia. Welcome to the first of many Broad Daze episodes.

    The No-Botox Beauty Uplevel, Sleep Scores & Armpits Folds

    02/04/2026 | 50 mins.
    This week on The Mother Daze we’re deep in the beautiful chaos of motherhood, with scooting babies keeping us on high alert and baby proofing becoming a full-time job. We chat the simple joys of a Costco run, what our sleep scores and aura rings are really telling us, and Sarah’s surprisingly impressive sleep score despite a baby on the boob all night.

    We get into the magic of those truly special teachers who shape our kids in ways we’ll never forget, a little St Patty’s Day energy, and the ever-evolving realities of our bodies… including those unexpected little “baby vagina” fat folds casually setting up camp under our armpits.

    Teresa’s kids have started a band (yes, fo realz because why not add more to the plate?!), we talk Lotus’ first foods, tooth fairy logistics, and navigating the Santa chat with our curious pre-teens.

    Tez shares her current skincare ritual that’s genuinely making her feel ten years younger. After considering a late night sprint to get a face full of Boey, she discovered the natural alternative she’s now shouting from the rooftops….face taping!!! #frowniesforever

    It’s motherhood, magic, shifting identities and small everyday wins, all wrapped into one very Mother Daze episode.

    Cleaning House with Lindsay Dahl

    26/03/2026 | 50 mins.
    This week on the pod we sit down with environmental health expert and mama Lindsay Dahl, author of Cleaning House, for a deeply grounding, eye-opening chat about what it really means to create a healthier home without spiraling into perfectionism.

    From beauty products to the everyday cleaning staples sitting under your sink, Lindsay walks us through how to make more conscious choices without throwing everything out overnight, and where to actually start so it doesn’t feel overwhelming. We dive into trusted certifications like EWG and MADE SAFE, and how to decode labels so you can feel confident about what you’re bringing into your home and onto your body.

    We also explore the idea of micro moments of advocacy, those small, powerful choices that add up over time, and how to balance being informed without becoming overwhelmed. Because there’s a fine line between empowering our kids with knowledge and overloading them with information.
