The Mom Hour is a podcast and community for moms seeking practical tips and real-life encouragement delivered in a fun and inclusive way. The podcast – a top-ranked show with more than 18 Million all-time downloads – is a weekly conversation between Meagan Francis and Sarah Powers, two moms with eight kids between them from little to grown.

Meagan, Sarah, and The Mom Hour’s team of contributors take on parenting topics and issues related to motherhood in a tone that is reassuring and real with lots of room for laughter (listeners say it’s like having coffee with their girlfriends). They combine their own stories and experiences with practical tips and heartfelt encouragement for busy moms who want to enjoy the parenting journey and cut back on comparison, worry and stress.

In addition to weekly episodes, The Mom Hour features bonus conversations hosted by a rotating team of contributors, occasional expert interviews, and wildly popular More Than Mom episodes devoted to lifestyle topics outside of motherhood. Episodes are released on Tuesdays (always!) and Fridays (sometimes!) and typically run 45-55 minutes. The Mom Hour is available on Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Spotify, and wherever podcasts are found.

The Mom Hour blog regularly features essays, gift guides, tips, playlists, product roundups, and recipes from our contributing writers and guest authors.
