Conversations with Cam

In this episode, I sit down with clinical psychologist, Dr. Jaclyn Nofech-Mozes, to discuss all things parent-child attachment, why we all have the tools to attain secure attachment, and why we can’t be perfect parents. Jaclyn explains the four attachment styles, the primary components of secure attachment, and what “rupture and repair” means. She also shares why it’s essential to know your “shark music” as a parent, whether sleep training, breastfeeding, and daycare/nannies affect attachment, and how child attachment changes with age. Finally, she discusses fostering secure attachment with your child as the non-birthing parent, the impact of maternal mental health on attachment, and how we can initiate repair if there has been a rupture.Key Takeaway / Points:Jaclyn’s background as a clinical psychologistWhat is parent-infant attachment?On the four attachment stylesWhy we don’t need to be the perfect parentThe primary components of secure attachmentOn “rupture and repair”On recognizing your “shark music”Whether sleep training, breast feeding, and daycare/nannies affect attachmentHow child attachment changes with ageHow you can develop a secure attachment with your child if you had an insecure attachment with a parent growing upOn fostering attachment with the non-birthing partnerWhy some mothers feel that “instant bond” and others don’tOn the impact of maternal mental health on attachmentAdvice for how to initiate repairFind Jaclyn’s website hereThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this solo episode, I introduce the new podcast name…Conversations with Cam! I explain the new name for the show, why it was time to move on from the “Freckled Foodie” moniker, and review the content changes that started with my first pregnancy.

I also share more about the healer my family saw growing up and my current body work, discuss my recent experience with spinal energy work and the new changes I’m trying to implement, and announce my “Filling My Cup” Substack and virtual events that are coming down the pipeline.Key Takeaway / Points:On choosing a new name for the showOn the history of the ”Freckled Foodie” monikerOn the content change that came with my first pregnancyOn my active work on changing from a scarcity mindsetOn the “Conversations with Cam” decisionHow I currently don’t feel very in tune with myself On constantly feeling overstimulated and not being able to break the cycleOn the healer my family saw growing up and my current body workMy recent experience with spinal energy workOn my new “Filling My Cup” Substack and monthly virtual eventsOn bringing more experts on the showFind Tiffany’s energy work website here and Instagram at @heyimtiffanymarieUse code CAMERON20 to work with TiffanyThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this episode, I sit down with Carissa Stanton – content creator, food blogger, and now-cookbook author – to discuss the release of her cookbook “Seriously, So Good” and how she’s feeling during publishing week.

She shares details about her recent engagement, why she has always felt she wanted an intimate wedding, and how she plans to include her friends in the celebration.

In this solo episode, I unpack how both of my postpartum experiences have differed, from my relationships with anxiety and depression; to my fixation on controlling outcomes; to how I have prioritized self care and developed mental health toolkits for myself. I recap my first postpartum experience in 2021, sharing what my relationship with anxiety was like before getting pregnant and how it manifested in postpartum, and how my need for control created obsessive behaviors. I then share my second and most recent postpartum experience, from dealing with sleep issues with both children; to feeling mentally stronger; to letting go of how things “should be” and embracing them for what they are. Finally, I share what I wish I had started earlier during postpartum, and what I would tell myself as a first-time mother experiencing both the highs and lows of postpartum.Key Takeaway / Points:Recapping my first postpartum experience in 2021My relationship with anxiety and journey with anxiety medication before getting pregnantOn planning for postpartum anxiety and depression before giving birthWhen and how my mental health struggles hit during postpartumHow I developed a self-care toolkit and prioritized my mental healthOn experiencing intrusive thoughtsOn my need for control and planning obsessivelyMy postpartum experience with our second childOn dealing with sleep issues with both childrenWhat has helped with my mental health this time aroundOn letting go of control as a second-time momWhat I wish I had started earlier during postpartumWhat I would tell myself during my first postpartum experienceThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this episode, I sit down with Sarah Levy, author of “Drinking Games,” to talk about her journey to becoming sober and how drinking played a role in her life up through her twenties. Sarah shares how her relationship with alcohol evolved over time, how hustle culture in New York affected her drinking habits, and why multiple stints of moderation and abstinence didn’t work. She also discusses how her drinking affected her friendships, what happened when she experienced a “final straw” moment, and how she got sober. Finally, Sarah shares advice for people with friends who struggle with alcohol, provides her own recovery toolkit for maintaining sobriety, and discusses how motherhood and sobriety continue to shape her.Key Takeaway / Points:On Sarah’s book “Drinking Games”Sarah’s relationship with alcohol growing up and how it evolved over timeSarah’s progression with alcohol in college and lacking quantity controlOn being aware of addictive tendenciesOn moving to New York and being swept up in hustle cultureOn having multiple stints of moderating and abstaining from alcoholOn experiencing a “final straw” momentHow Sarah’s drinking affected her friendshipsHow Sarah got soberOn dating as a sober personAdvice for people with friends who struggle with alcoholOn motherhood and sobrietySarah’s recovery toolkit for maintaining sobrietyOn mommy wine cultureOn having a partner who drinksCheck out Sarah’s book “Drinking Games” hereThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this episode, I sit down with my sister Sarah Louise (aka Lucy) to unpack both of our recent trips, whether I’ve become a grandparent on vacation, and our differences as “beach people” vs. “non-beach people”. We discuss Lucy’s birth name, the humiliation of applying sunscreen in public, and whether you’re a no-pee person or a multiple bathroom trips person on planes. We also debate airplane etiquette, from asking people to switch seats to jumping boarding zones, share the hell of our airport customs experiences, and reminisce on the time Lucy was on the no-fly list.Key Takeaway / Points:Lucy gives a quick bio on herself for new listenersWe reveal Lucy’s birth name and discuss her future options for changing her nameLucy updates us on her trip to AntiguaQuestioning if I’ve become a grandparent on vacationThe humiliation of applying sunscreen in publicOn never peeing on the airplane vs. making multiple bathroom tripsOn airplane etiquette, from asking people to switch seats to jumping boarding zonesOn the hell of airport customsThat time Lucy was on a no-fly listWe play the alphabet gameThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this episode, I sit down with my two friends and fellow mothers, Mandi and Lindsey, to discuss how we’re all doing in postpartum, how we became friends in the first place, and how we’ve supported each other through pregnancy, breastfeeding, and everything in between. We share why our husbands had to force us to be friends at first, how we are each others’ champions vs. cheerleaders, and how our second postpartum experiences have differed from our firsts – from our bodies, to our work, to our mental health. We also talk about why Lindsey decided to stop breastfeeding and how she went about it, what we love about having two children and what’s been the most challenging, how we’ve been working through the “roommates” phase with our husbands, and so much more.Key Takeaway / Points:Why our husbands had to force us to be friendsWhy Lindsey and Mandi were not excited about making new friends at firstOn all of us being pregnant at the same timeOn being each others’ champions vs. cheerleaders with parentingHow our second postpartum experiences have differed from our firsts, from our bodies, to our work, to our mental healthOn Lindsey deciding to stop breastfeeding and how she went about itOn the societal guilt of stopping breastfeeding and the importance of advocating for yourself in the hospitalOn our favorite parts of having two children, and the challengesOn working through the “roommates phase” with your husbandOn working through resentment towards our partnersHow Lindsey and Mandi feel about returning to work after maternity leaveHow to best support and show up for your fellow friends and mothersThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
