More Than Mom: Beauty Product Nostalgia

    Oooh, and I think the Apple-y hairspray was Salon Selectives! This is so fun. (I was born in 1980 and had an older sister)

    I may need to write my own blog post on this topic! FYI, before the current Herbal Essences line, there was Herbal Essence. My mom loved it so much that when stores stopped carrying it, she wrote to Clairol and they sent her an entire case! It looked like this: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/393994667376763270/

    Loved all the nostaglia in this episode – I totally used Noxzema and Sea Breeze. I think the peel off masks were by Kiss My Face – at least that’s the brand I remember using.
    My Mom still uses Noxzema today – you can find it at Target, Walmart, CVS etc. It is usually by the St. Ive’s products and usually on the bottom shelf. Still the same blue jar.

    Meagan,
    The apple scented hair spray ,I believe ,was Salon Selectives. It came in a rose, dark pink spray bottle and we used to “scrunch” our hair to get the curls to have that wet look. Also for bangs and the wings. I don’t remember a water melon scent. I graduated high school in 1996 and I grew up in Ohio and Aussie Mega hair spray was a big deal too. They still make it. Fun to listen to you. One of those podcasts where I really wanted to chime in. Thanks !

    “Om” scent from the Gap. And remember “Kissing Potion” lip gloss with the rollerball?

Not only that, but as fine motor skills and - ahem - frustration-management skills have improved for my three, the sophistication level of our egg-dyeing adventures has increased dramatically.

It's our Podcastaversary (yep, we just made up a new word)! Today we are celebrating eight years of The Mom Hour by reflecting on some of your most-asked questions over the years. Beyond recurring queries like "should I have that third baby?" or "what's the ideal spacing between kids?," we're digging into some deeper through-lines that point to the fears, insecurities, and hopes of our community. We also provide snapshots of the many places we have recorded our 640+ episodes (the floor, the bed, different states and more).

We'll be sharing our own in an upcoming episode and hope to include some from listeners as well. Can be from any area of summer enjoyment from childcare to travel to self-care to home management to backyard gardening!

Bowling. Bonfires. The mall (no, really.) And board games (maybe?). What's fun for our families right now looks quite different than it did years ago, so today Meagan and Sarah revisit an oft-discussed hot topic on The Mom Hour: family "fun." We share several ideas for ACTUALLY FUN family activities that work for our current seasons, as well as some gripes about things that feel like they should be fun but aren't. Join us!

It isn't always easy to appreciate the mundane tasks of our daily lives, or to see the glass half-full when something goes awry. Inspired by yet another social media trend that had us scratching our heads at first (and then reflecting in spite of our forty-something selves), today Meagan and Sarah talk about situations from our own lives where we romanticized the hard stuff to get by.

🥎  Through potty training, you’ve shown incredible determination.
⚽  Sibling rivalry has made you the ultimate expert in team dynamics. 
🏀  You’ve displayed grit in the face of a stomach bug. 
🏐  Organizational skills? You keep track of all 47 of the elementary school’s dress-up days.
🥎  You’ve developed patience as your child has figured out zippers.
⚽  You are not easily intimated…hello science projects and fractions. 
🏀  You have a keen eye for what motivates your child. (Hint…it’s snacks and Bluey.)
🏐  Toddler temper tantrums are no match for your perseverance.
🥎  You folded 16 loads of laundry with a (mostly) positive attitude.
⚽  Multitasking? That’s your specialty.

New episode! Worrying as a mom is a universal exp New episode!

Worrying as a mom is a universal experience (and, spoiler alert: it never REALLY goes away). Today Meagan and Sarah look back over the years on the worries that surface most often in our community. Going by the questions we get from listeners, moms worry a lot about safety (our kids', our own, the state of the world); and we also worry about WORRY (are we worried about the "right" things? is our worry creating anxiety in our kids?). Join us as we revisit these questions and more with that well-worn reminder: it's (probably) all going to be okay.
