The Mother Daze with Sarah Wright Olsen & Teresa Palmer
Sarah Wright Olsen & Teresa Palmer
Sarah Wright Olsen (American Made, Parks and Recreation) and Teresa Palmer (Warm Bodies, Hacksaw Ridge) are two moms, from opposite ends of the world, meeting for an hour every week to discuss the mayhem, magic and madness of raising their 8 children between them. Motherhood can feel overwhelming, exhausting and isolating but you don’t have to do it alone! Follow along as they attempt to navigate, ask questions, share stories, break down the everyday challenges and hopefully keep you from googling phrases like “What does it mean when my baby’s poop is green?” Grab your coffee, tea, Kombucha or favorite libation and join as they discuss mom fails, poop talk, pillow talk, and much more. These moms will engage in some brilliant interviews with celebrity friends, parenting experts and listeners like you! From the creators of the celebrated Your Zen Mama community, Sarah Wright Olsen and Teresa Palmer bring you “The Mother Daze”, a refreshing and real look in to the wild and wonderful days of Motherhood.

Pregnancy, Birth & Postpartum with Dr Phabillia Afflack
She’s Fab, she’s legendary, she’s the obgyn all the obgyns want to channel and all the birthing peeps want to hire. Imagine a doctor who comes and sits on the floor of your home and takes the vulnerability from you and puts it in her, a caretaker so generous she will unpack every last fear you have even if it’s unrelated to pregnancy, someone who will hold your hand and help you write the dreamiest of dreamy narratives of how your birth will unfold, who believes in observing and allowing the birth process to unfurl in a hands off approach, only stepping in as the “just in case” standby. This kind of model of care is revolutionary and Dr Phabillia Afflack is making waves in the birth industry. We are beyond grateful to hear the remarkable words of wisdom she bestows upon us.Resource links:Phabulouscare.comFollow Dr Phabillia: IG: @phabulouscareFollow 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!
