The Mother Daze with Sarah Wright Olsen & Teresa Palmer

Dazies we are so excited to have Rumer Willis back with us!! A few months ago Rumer came on to talk about her pregnancy and expectations, fears, excitement and dreams about her upcoming birth. In today's episode she is back to share her gorgeous home birth story, the very vulnerable moments right after, the quiet hours when everyone leaves and the days and weeks that follow. The beautiful thing about Rumer is that she shares in such an open and vulnerable way with everything from birthing the placenta right in her hands, to raw nipples and that fearful first poo!!

From her teenage mermaid escapades to hanging out with vampires, brewing spells with witches, channeling her inner mean girl, and enduring the wrath of a hungry shark, our guest this week is none other than Hollywood sensation Claire Holt! Her life has been a whirlwind of adventures, but none as colorful as her journey into motherhood with her third child on the way. In our conversation this week, we explore Claire's experiences with pregnancy, her candid and real presence on social media, her viral mom moments, navigating pregnancy after a loss, the challenges of breastfeeding, the unique circumstances of giving birth during the Covid era, and the eternal quest for that elusive work-life balance.

A little woo woo, a little boo hoo and a lot of Lols again this episode. We take you on a bumpy ride through suck suck boobie land, where we meet a mother suffering from the irrational middle of the night “everybody hates me, everything sucks” belief system, we have a stopover in the burbs of ‘big life questions’ asking things like “are my deceased loved ones trying to tell me to have another baby?” and “but what is the meaning of life?”, we then explore the world of ‘Depleted Mother Syndrome’ and offer up some hot tips on dealing with this highly contagious disease. All this and more to experience on this week's episode of The Mother Daze!Resource Links:baeo.comListen to Part 1 & Part 2 of Nikki Reed's episode on The Mother Daze podcastFollo​w Sarah Wright Olsen: IG: @swrightolsenFollow Teresa Palmer: IG: @teresapalmer FB: https://www.facebook.com/teresamarypalmer/DISCOUNT CODES: • Go to www.baeo.com and get 20% when using the code MOTHERDAZE20 • Go to www.lovewell.earth and get 20% when using the code MOTHERDAZE20More about the show! • Watch this episode on YouTube here • Co-founders of @yourzenmama yourzenmama.com • Read and buy our book!

This week on the pod we have crazy tales from down under as Teresa’s week goes rogue, from harrowing cat rescues, disastrous mum fails to marathon birth working duties and finding moments of “one with the cosmos” among the chaos. Sarah’s daughter Esme has a birthday and reminisces on some rather mystical moments of her time from the great beyond! The gals also chat low vibes/high vibes and the magnetism at play with the law of attraction (and how subtle shifts can change everythinggg!!). Sarah teaches Teresa her ways of self care at dawn and gives some practical tips on applying the whole “put your own mask on first before helping others” principle. Don’t miss this hour of magical mashup!

In the deepest part of you, have you ever longed for the experience of raising a daughter? Or dreamt about what it would feel like to have a little boy about the place? There’s a reason thoughts of having a baby of a particular biological sex are shrouded in secrecy, self judgement and a profound shame. “Gender” disappointment is a real term with an unfortunate name (we all know there is a fundamental difference between sex and gender) today on The Mother Daze we dive into this taboo subject with microbiology, immunology & molecular genetics expert and author of The Babydust Method, Kathryn Taylor. Kathryn breaks down her methods to dramatically increase your chances of conceiving the sex of your choice, based on the latest and greatest scientific research. We also unravel the intricate discussion on this matter, recognizing the damage that gender stereotyping has but also recognizing that grieving the idealized child is still a conversation worth having.Resource Links:The Babydust Method on AmazonJoin The Babydust Method Group Forum on FacebookFollow The Babydust Method on IG: @thebabydustmethodFollo​w Sarah Wright Olsen: IG: @swrightolsenFollow Teresa Palmer: IG: @teresapalmer FB: https://www.facebook.com/teresamarypalmer/DISCOUNT CODES: • Go to www.baeo.com and get 20% when using the code MOTHERDAZE20 • Go to www.lovewell.earth and get 20% when using the code MOTHERDAZE20More about the show! • Watch this episode on YouTube here • Co-founders of @yourzenmama yourzenmama.com • Read and buy our book!

On this week's episode of ‘winging it and winning’, we discuss the cascade of covid chaos in the Olsen household- who, until now, have been covid dodgers for three years by way of hazmat suits, goggles and boarding up all access to outside air or other people! Teresa takes us down a rabbit hole of whether to rent an RV or pull a trailer behind her Toyota mum van during her family’s upcoming #vanlife adventures- deep thoughts for Palmer as she navigates her “we are on strike, now what?” existential crisis. Then Sarah impresses with her badassery as she steps way outside her comfort zone to take down the patriarchy. All this and more musings on this week's dazelicious episode!Resource links:Deborah Harkness IG: @debharknessFollo​w Sarah Wright Olsen: IG: @swrightolsenFollow Teresa Palmer: IG: @teresapalmer FB: https://www.facebook.com/teresamarypalmer/DISCOUNT CODES: • Go to www.baeo.com and get 20% when using the code MOTHERDAZE20 • Go to www.lovewell.earth and get 20% when using the code MOTHERDAZE20More about the show! • Watch this episode on YouTube here • Co-founders of @yourzenmama yourzenmama.com • Read and buy our book!

***Trigger warning***This episode discusses themes of generational trauma and sexual abuse, it may not be suitable for all listeners.This week we have an incredibly uplifting guest - Kimberly Shannon Murphy, a true force in Hollywood as a stuntwoman to some of the industry’s biggest stars, but her story goes far beyond her on-screen badassery! We chat with her about her memoir, "Glimmer," which walks readers through her path to healing from the generational trauma she faced at the hands of her grandfather. During our interview with her she candidly explores the impact of these experiences on her parenting journey, she sheds light on the power of breaking cycles, the path to healing and reclaiming one's own narrative. Such a remarkable story of recovery, resilience, and the transformative power of motherhood.Resource Links:Grab your copy of GLIMMER: A Story of Survival, Hope and Healing on AmazonFollow Kimberly on IG: @kimberlyshannonmurphystuntsFollo​w Sarah Wright Olsen: IG: @swrightolsenFollow Teresa Palmer: IG: @teresapalmer FB: https://www.facebook.com/teresamarypalmer/DISCOUNT CODES: • Go to www.baeo.com and get 20% when using the code MOTHERDAZE20 • Go to www.lovewell.earth and get 20% when using the code MOTHERDAZE20More about the show! • Watch this episode on YouTube here • Co-founders of @yourzenmama yourzenmama.com • Read and buy our book!
