The podcast Did We Just Become Milfs? is created by Tayla Burke & Tori Dietz. The podcast and the artwork on this page are embedded on this page using the public podcast feed (RSS).
All we can say is this week's episode is a MUST for all mamas no matter what stage of motherhood you're in. If the thought of starting solids has you spiraling (hello, gagging fear) this episode is your permission slip to breathe. We're joined by Kary Rappaport, a pediatric occupational therapist and feeding & swallowing specialist from Solid Starts (!!!), to walk us through everything from purées vs. baby-led weaning, to how to introduce allergens, and what to actually do if your baby starts gagging.
We’re going beyond the Instagram highlight reel and into the real questions new moms have—like how to know your baby is ready, what to feed them first, and how to stay calm if they refuse everything (spoiler: it’s normal). Kary breaks down the myths, builds up your confidence, and helps you find a feeding style that works for you and your baby.
Whether you're a first-time mom or just need a refresher, this convo will leave you feeling empowered, informed, and ready to make mealtime feel less stressful (and maybe even fun?!). Let’s do this!
The holy grail for introducing food to your baby :

Do you ever catch yourself mid-mom moment and think… “Wait, was my mom actually right about this?!”
Us too.
In this solo episode, we’re getting honest about the things we never thought we’d say out loud—like realizing our parents may have been onto something when it comes to faith, relationships, and how we raise our kids. From reimagining spirituality in a way that feels true for us now, to figuring out how to teach our daughters about love, trust, and self-worth—we’re in the thick of it.
This is for the moms who are:
– Rethinking how they want to talk about faith or spirituality at home
– Trying to raise emotionally intelligent, confident kids without passing on guilt or pressure
– Figuring out how to model healthy relationships (while still healing their own past)
– Wanting to create a home full of intention, connection, and real talk
If you’ve ever felt like you’re learning how to parent and re-parent yourself at the same time—this one’s for you.
If this episode makes you feel a little more seen, send it to a mom friend who’d love it too 💛

We’re back with the one and only Katrina Scott, and we’re so excited to catch up with her. Last time she joined us, she got super real about the losses she’s been through—some of which she hadn’t shared with many people—and today, she’s filling us in on how life’s looking now as a mom of three (cue our jaws dropping at the "wow, she's a superwoman" moment).
Katrina takes us through what it’s been like finding light again after all her heartbreak, including how she felt emotionally during her third pregnancy and how the birth of Carmen helped her heal after a really tough second birth experience. We’re talking all the feels, y’all.
Then, of course, we dive into the big question: what’s it really like going from two kids to three?! Katrina spills all the tea on the hardest parts (spoiler: bedtime chaos is real), the things that surprised her, and how her older girls have been adjusting to their new baby sister. It's equal parts hilarious and heartwarming—honestly, we can all relate!
Oh, and did we mention that Katrina somehow managed to launch her fitness app AND products while pregnant with Carmen AND adjusting to life with a newborn? Like, how does she do it? She’s giving us some serious inspiration + motivation as always.
We wrap things up with some rapid-fire questions! Katrina tells us what advice she would give her past self, her favorite mom hack now that she’s a mom of three, and the one thing she totally swore she’d never do as a mom...but now absolutely does all the time.
It’s real, it’s raw, and it’s all the mom feels. We can’t wait for you to hear it!

This episode is a must-listen! We’re sitting down with the incredible Megan Roup, founder of The Sculpt Society, fitness expert, and mom of two, to talk all things pregnancy and postpartum movement.
If you’ve ever wondered “Am I doing the right workouts while pregnant?” or “How the heck do I get back into movement without peeing my pants?”—Megan’s got you. She’s breaking down the biggest myths around working out while pregnant, the actual safest and most effective moves for each trimester, and why “bouncing back” is officially swapped out for finding connection.
Postpartum mamas, we’ve got you too! Megan is sharing her own experience with postpartum recovery—how long it took to feel strong again, the importance of core and pelvic floor rehab, and how to find confidence in your body beyondaesthetics. Plus, she’s dropping her best tips for busy moms who want to move their bodies without adding another stressor to their plate.
And because we love a little extra goodness, Megan’s gifting our listeners with 25% off with MILFS25!
Grab your coffee (before or after a workout? We debate this!) and tune in for a fun, honest, and encouraging convo about moving through motherhood with strength, confidence, and a little grace.

Becoming a mom is one of life’s biggest transformations — physically, emotionally, and mentally. In this powerful episode, we sit down with Dr. Megan Spence, a licensed perinatal psychologist, to unpack the emotional and psychological shifts that occur during pregnancy and postpartum.
Together, we explore the evolving identity of motherhood, the realities of postpartum depression (PPD), and why recognizing and addressing it is so critical for both moms and their families.
Dr. Spence breaks down the symptoms of PPD (and how it differs from the “baby blues”), risk factors, and why so many women struggle to see the signs in themselves. We also dive into postpartum rage, the connection between sleep deprivation and emotional overwhelm, and how to invite your partner into the conversation so they can support you in the right ways.
You’ll walk away with practical tools to help navigate the lows, manage intrusive thoughts (yes, they’re more common than you think!), and start prioritizing your mental health without adding to the overwhelm.
Plus, Dr. Spence answers listener questions, including:
This conversation is an honest, compassionate guide for every mom — whether you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, or years into motherhood.
You’re not alone. There’s help, there’s hope, and we’re talking about all of it.

Somehow, this podcast baby of ours is officially ONE, and if we’re being honest, it’s been the best kind of ‘mom therapy’. We’ve laughed, we’ve cried, we’ve had full-blown mom brain moments, and we wouldn’t change a thing. Over the past year, we’ve had real, unfiltered conversations about the ups and downs of motherhood, and today, we’re reflecting on the biggest lessons we’ve learned along the way.
From the absolute necessity of a mom community to the reality that kids absorb everything—our energy, our words, our habits—it’s wild. We’re sharing what’s shaped us, challenged us, and helped us grow. And let’s not forget: It’s okay to not love every moment.
We’re also looking back at some of the most impactful episodes of the year—the ones that made us think, gave us the best mom advice, and reminded us we’re definitely not alone in this.
And we have to say it—we are obsessed with this MILF mom community. The fact that we get to show up here, have these conversations, and connect with so many incredible moms is something we don’t take for granted. This space has become more than just a podcast; it’s a place where we can all be real, support each other, and remind ourselves that we’re doing a great job.
Whether you’ve been here since day one or just found us, we’re SO grateful for this community and can’t wait for what’s next.
Here’s to another year of learning, growing, and figuring it all out together!!

MOMS. We officially hit 100,000 downloads in less than a year!! (WHAT!) We are so beyond grateful for this community—for every single one of you who tunes in, laughs with us, sends in your stories, and shares the pod with your friends. We truly couldn’t have reached this milestone without our favorite MILFs showing up week after week, and we just want to say: WE LOVE YOU.
So, to celebrate, we’re bringing you an episode full of the funniest, most unhinged parenting moments — yours and ours.
We’re talking public potty accidents, mid-flight meltdowns, getting stuck in a crib at 2 AM, and accidentally summoning first responders just for taking a mom nap. Yep, it’s that kind of episode. Plus, we play a ridiculous round of Would You Rather: Parenting Edition with some surprisingly hot takes.
If you’ve ever had a parenting moment so bad you had to laugh (or cry), this one’s for you. Grab your coffee, lock yourself in the bathroom for some “me time,” and let’s remember: we’re not alone in the motherhood chaos!

Can you believe it’s our 50th episode?! We’re celebrating this milestone with one of our dearest friends—Sophie Jaffe, mama of three, wellness guru, and all-around inspiring human.
You know how it goes—sometimes screens feel like the only way to get a moment of peace, but then you’re like, “Wait… is this too much?” We get it. Sophie gets it. In this episode, we’re having a real, no-judgment convo about the realities of screen time. We break down why screens are so addictive (spoiler: they’re literally designed that way), how too much stimulation can affect kids’ behavior, and—most importantly—how to set boundaries without feeling like the bad guy.
Sophie shares her personal journey of reducing screen time in her home, the strategies that actually work, and why it’s never too late to make a change. Whether you’re dealing with toddler tantrums over YouTube or navigating social media with teens, this episode is packed with real talk, practical tips, and gentle reminders that you’re doing your best—and that’s more than enough.

We’re BACK, MILFs!
First off—thank you, thank you, thank you for sticking with us while we navigated life after the fire devastation in LA. We’ve missed you so much and couldn’t wait to get back on the mic with you all.
This week, we’re catching up on life and diving into a topic that’s been lingers in parents or future parents minds: expanding the fam. (Anyone else get overwhelmed just thinking about it?!) We also haven’t checked in on the whole 1 to 2 kids transition in a while, and now that we’re both further into our mom of two era, we’re spilling what actually rocked us and what turned out to be no big deal at all.
What we’re getting into:
✨ How do you actually know when you’re “ready” to have another kid?
✨ Where we’re at right now balancing two little ones
✨ The fears we had about going from 1 to 2 kids that turned out to be totally NOT a big deal
✨ The stuff that actually was/is hard that we never saw coming
✨ Are you more of a newborn mom or a toddler mom—and why??
If you’ve ever thought about adding to your family (or just want some real talk on mom life), this one’s for you!

In this week's ep, we dive deep into the often-overlooked journey of rediscovering your identity outside of motherhood. Every mother experiences this shift, and it can leave many feeling lost and disconnected from who we were before kids. We talk about the importance of self-reflection, exploring questions to help you uncover what you love, what you miss, and what you're ready to leave behind. We chat about practical ways for reconnecting with yourself and embracing your passions once again. So if you take anything away from this episode, we hope it is to encourage you to take a moment for yourself today—because no matter how much we adore our kids, motherhood doesn’t have to be the only thing that defines you.

The holiday season is officially here, and if you're anything like us, you know how quickly it can all get crazy. Between managing traditions, holiday shopping, and making magical memories for the family, it can feel like a lot. So, we’ve got your back in this episode of DWJBM with the ultimate “Mom-Approved Holiday Gift & Tradition Guide.” Trust us, it’s a good one!
First things first, it’s a BIG moment for Tori—it's her first full day away from Charlotte in SIX MONTHS (yes, you read that right, SIX months)! We’re chatting about how sometimes we don’t even realize how tough certain seasons are until we’re on the other side, and how this little break is giving her some much-needed space to breathe.
We cover all of our favorite toddler holiday gifts. After a few years of Christmases and birthdays with our little ones, we’ve learned that less really can be more—and intentional gifts? Always a win. We’re sharing our top picks and tips for finding those perfect presents that won’t overwhelm anyone (including you!).
Plus, traditions! The holidays are all about making memories, so we’re talking about how we plan to create new, special moments with our families this year. Whether it’s tweaking old traditions or starting fresh ones, we’ve got some fun ideas for how to make this season feel extra meaningful for the kids.

This week we dive into the bittersweet reality of parenting milestones. As any parent in the universe, we spend so much time looking forward to our kids' big moments—first words, crawling, wobbly first steps, potty training, and more—when they finally arrive, it can be a mix of excitement and some unexpected sadness- WHAT?! Let us explain….once they walk, they’ll never be a crawling baby again, and once they’re potty trained, that adorable puffy diaper butt is gone for good & you’ll find yourself somehow missing it.
If you’ve ever been frustrated by the unsolicited negative “just waits” that get thrown your way in parenthood, this episode is for you. We talk about our favorite milestones, the ones that completely took us by surprise, and the heartstrings-tugging moments like that first morning dropping our kids off at school that make us wish we could just FREEZE TIME.
Parenting isn’t always sunshine and rainbows, (sometimes it’s diaper blowouts and major sleep regressions) but when you see your kids reach big milestones knowing you played a big role in them getting there, it reminds us all what a privilege it is to be living this precious life with our kids!!!
So, if you’re currently parenting with your head barely above water….just wait - it only gets better from here!

Last week the world (& social media) felt really heavy, so this week we want to counteract all of that and bring you a "warm hug" of an episode!!! We're pretty sure we've all experienced our fair share of trolls whether it's a glare out in public, a judgmental comment on an airplane when your child is being a little too loud, or maybe an unsolicited cruel message on IG from an absolute stranger (the thought haunts us)?! So today we have compiled your stories to prove there are still absolute saints of strangers that will come to a parent's rescue in a time of need and save the day. These are the stories that will forever stick with us no matter how big or small the act was.

Let’s recap all things Halloween! Holidays are always a mix of cute and chaotic when chasing the littles around. We had some major wins feeling like we nailed the family costumes this year and Tayla succeeded in hosting the cutest family party…are we getting the hang of this parenting thing?
Something we noticed at the party was how unique all of our kids are. They are born with their own special personalities and it was so fun to see them interacting with each other in different ways. We’re going through all of the personality types that make our kids so them.
Do you have a loud, fearless extrovert or a quiet, sensitive introvert? Do they crave attention or prefer to do their own thing? We’re chatting about how recognizing and embracing your child’s natural temperament can make all the difference in how you connect with them and handle those *intense* moments. Spoiler: there’s no one-size-fits-all approach!

This week, we're letting our hair down and sharing our personal lists of things we DO NOT care about as moms. If you've seen the Tiktok trend, you get it!! It's easy to feel pressured by the "picture perfect" families we see on Instagram, our expectations for family dinner time, or the Pinterest activity inspo we save to do with our kids on another day. But let's face it- we can't live up to it all nor should we want to because not everything can make our priority list & that's called life. So together let's decide what really matters to us moms and let go of the guilt around the things that don't make the cut. Yay for less f*cks given- isn't it refreshing?! xx

In this week's episode, we dive headfirst into the whirlwind adventure of early parenthood & what to expect during the first few weeks with your new little one. We reminisce on the drive home from the hospital, how we both had no idea how to put the carseat in the car, & that feeling of walking into your home for the first time as a family (goooosebumps!). We touch on all things from feeding schedules and newborn milestones to a partner's role and types of boundaries to set with friends and family. Whether you're a new parent or just preparing for the wild ride ahead, tune in as we embrace that fake it till you make it mentality because no matter how many parenting books you have under your belt, there's truly no manual that prepares you quite like just getting thrown into it all.

This week, we're tying a pretty bow on pregnancy. We're diving deep into our feels by sharing our most intimate pregnancy love notes. Join us as we expose our innermost thoughts and reflections, dishing out words of wisdom we wish we'd heard before (& during) our pregnancy journeys. It's a reminder that sometimes all it takes is the opportunity to slow down & sit in your thoughts just to realize how far you've come. Take this episode as a sign to disconnect for a few, whip out your neglected journal, & write yourself a much-needed love note today.
We're also excited to share with you some newness! In this episode we introduce Mom-To-Mom, our new monthly giveback program. Once a month, we will be selecting one mom's story & sending a care package based on whatever she could use most in that moment. Whether she's pregnant, grieving loss, postpartum, breastfeeding, looking for hand-me-downs, toys etc. we would love to support her however we can. If this is you or a mama friend you have in mind, all you have to do is send us a private message with your story & how we can help (can be anonymous). Email us at [email protected] with subject line Mom-To-Mom.

Surprise! We're adding a bonus episode to this week's roster by inviting two special guests to get behind the mic with us. Yesterday we shared our perspective of our birth stories so we thought it would be fun to hear about the experience from our partners' points of view. Today the guys share their thoughts on labor, how they supported us throughout the entire process, & advice for couples navigating an experience of their own. It's heartfelt, it's insightful, & we've got to say the boys really showed up to shower us in compliments.
DWJBM Hot Tip: If you're pregnant, give this episode a listen with your S.O. to open up the convo about your future BIRTH day!

This week, we're heading to the hospital to share our BIRTH STORIES! We kick things off discussing our hospital bag must-haves (for mom, dad, & baby) & the things we ditched the second time around. We share our very raw & unfiltered journeys bringing our babies into the world from the anticipation of first-time inductions and a scheduled C-section to the unexpected twists and turns of labor & post-birth. No matter the rollercoaster ride of how you get there, absolutely nothing compares to the moment you meet your little one for the very first time. If there is one thing we both learned through birth, it's that women are absolutely superheroes & we are so much stronger than we think we are!

Hear about the things we both did to prepare our bodies for labor, tips for flipping a breech baby, wild ways we tried to induce labor naturally & why we both wish we didn't rush too fast to the finish line of birth.
