Her honesty cuts through the curated noise and reminds women everywhere: you’re not alone, you’re not failing, and it’s okay to laugh through the chaos.In this refreshingly real conversation, Caitlin opens up about the invisible mental load of motherhood, why no one warns you about peri-menopause until it slaps you in the face, and how trolls, burnout, and staying sane on social media are all part of the package. She shares her thoughts on why men often don’t fully understand the female experience — and how we can start bridging that gap — as well as the moment she realized she wasn’t just posting memes, but building a movement. Leah and Caitlin also dig into the power of letting go of perfection, parenting with honesty (and snacks), and how Caitlin is supporting women through midlife with her upcoming book. You’ll even get a peek into her go-to snack routine and why food-scanning apps are a parenting game-changer.Caitlin’s story is a hug, a pep talk, and a much-needed cackle rolled into one. From postpartum to peri-menopause, she shows us how to own the mess, honor the hard parts, and laugh a little louder while we do it.
