The National Council on Sexual Addiction Compulsivity has estimated that six to eight percent of Americans, and approximately one in six women struggle with an addiction to pornography and sex. (Many women with sex addiction engage in casual sex, have multiple partners, or affairs. ) Author, and mom Erica Garza is one of the few women speaking out about her struggles with porn and compulsive masturbation (beginning at age 12), and later, sex addiction.

On this episode of the podcast, Erica talks about the underlying anxieties that contributed to her addiction, the pain of living a secret life, and how she finally was able to experience pleasure without feelings of shame.

My Story of Sexual Assault Needed A Retelling

Season 1 · Episode 4

Tuesday, January 4, 2022 • Duration 49:37

Today's guest suffered one of the worst things one can imagine happening to a person as a child, and lived with this secret well into adulthood. The Christine Blasey Ford hearings were a catalyst for the memories and flashbacks coming back to her and finally letting go of the shame she'd been holding onto for so long. Our guest tells her story of trauma, memory, grace, and resilience because she knows the power and healing that can come sharing her truth. She also shares some of the things she's done that have helped her process her pain and trauma, and that continue to promote her healing.

"I often think of it as as sort of a choir; the more that you speak up, and raise your voice others can join with you and before you know it, you all are singing this incredible tune that can change hearts and minds." - A.

My Life as an Influencer Masked My Abusive Childhood

Season 1 · Episode 3

Tuesday, December 28, 2021 • Duration 59:02

How do you learn how to mother when you grew up "basically, without parents?" Our anonymous guest talks about growing up as an autistic woman with parent figures who were detached at best, and physically and emotionally abusive at worst; and how she vowed to "become the village" she never had once she had a child of her own. But of course, like all best- laid plans -- especially when your aspirations are that of an "influencer" living a perfect Pottery Barn life -- things go quite a bit differently than she had hoped.

I'm Breaking the Cycle of My Family's Generational Trauma

Season 2 · Episode 3

Thursday, June 2, 2022 • Duration 54:45

Today we have writer, and coach Jenn M. Choi on the podcast, who shares with us her story of surviving the deaths of both of her immigrant parents (on top of going through a huge life change) and how that process helped her face the generational trauma she'd held onto for so many years. She talks about how she found self-compassion, how reframing healing is a constant process, and how we all have the tools we need within us to become "the moms we wish to be."

Listen to her expert suggestions on how to heal, and move through generational trauma in your own life, and how the ultimate self care is knowing that you need help and that you can't do it all alone:

Jenn's healing go-to's:

Mindset - Knowing to accept help. This is the first step: To get into the mindset of receiving help and saying, it is ok to not be ok, and I cannot do this alone.
Therapy is one of the best tools in helping you not implode with feelings of rage. Finding the right modality of therapy and good chemistry with your therapist is essential.
Coaching - therapy looks at present and past; coaching is more future focused.
Writing - journaling helps you process and come up with things from your subconscious and bring it to light. Writing a letter to your past self can be very powerful.
Online communities - going online and finding your community (FB, IG, Reddit’s sub communities).

I Am an Addict in Recovery: Sobriety in Motherhood

Season 2 · Episode 2

Monday, May 16, 2022 • Duration 44:56

"I could tell you maybe two people at my son's school know, and this is the crazy thing, maybe even more because I have been around people in those times I was using and you just don't think you look drunk. You did this, you forgot lunch, you did that, and who knows what people picked up on? My disease would lead me to believe they didn't at all, but I'm sure some people did."

In today's episode, we talk with someone who doesn't appear to be an "addict" but only because we have so many misconceptions of how an addict should look. An addict can be someone whose life has completely fallen apart, and it can also be the well-dressed mom at drop-off who is on her way to her C-suite office. Our guest tells us about the origins of her addiction, the career that helped fuel it, and how she has found recovery. She also talks about why she insists on considering herself an "addict" even though she is sober. We'll hear what it is like to parent while in recovery and how she talks to her child about her sobriety.

"Mothering as Social Change": A Conversation with author Angela Garbes

Season 2 · Episode 1

Wednesday, May 4, 2022 • Duration 59:04

SEASON 2 PREMIERE! Today we are talking with award-winning author Angela Garbes, of LIKE A MOTHER: A Feminist Journey Through the Science and Culture of Pregnancy, and the just-released ESSENTIAL LABOR: Mothering as Social Change. Her latest book reads like a manifesto for the kind of world we aspire to have for mothers and women and all caregivers, and it asks the question, what if we built a system that lets us care for the people that actually care for us? How do we, in a society that is so detached from our bodies create a world where we value bodies, the human experience, and our right to pleasure?
We talk with Angela about:

how to establish a strong foundational understanding for our children that their bodies are worthy of love, and good care
the responsibility parents hold for teaching our kids to respect all kinds of bodies, and that all bodies are different
how to navigate talking about difficult topics (like bodies, sex, scary news) with our children
the benefits of intergenerational living, and caring for elders
reframing sex and pleasure for ourselves and our kids
how to reconnect sexually with a partner during/after periods of low libido

LIKE A MOTHER, is out now. Grab this must-read book here.
