Have you ever felt overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice constantly hurled at moms, or heck, even the assumption that being a woman means you’ll become a mom one day? If you audibly groaned while reading that question, then Undefining Motherhood is the podcast for you, friend. In a world quick to comment on everything from the timing of motherhood to the ‘right’ way to do it, it’s no wonder we often feel overwhelmed, judged, guilty, and shamed.
Hosted by Katy Huie Harrison, mom to two littles and four angel babies, along with co-host Sarah Creel, aunt and hopeful future mama, this podcast unravels all the conflicting advice and validates the tricky experience of being a woman, future mother, or mother. With PhDs and over a decade spent unraveling how cultural narratives shape the experiences of being a mother (Katy) and being a woman in a marginalized position (Sarah), we’re here to shred the rule books and the relentless tide of expectations they bring.
That, friend, is exactly why we’re here. We’re pushing back against the social commentary that complicates moms’ experiences. In this safe space, the complexities of motherhood find a candid, unfiltered voice. We bring decades of research, years of experience, fun tidbits of history, and some serious feminism to our conversations about how, and why, we need to undefine motherhood. No dogmas, rule books, parenting styles, or mom overwhelm here. Just solidarity from two friends who get how hard it is and are working tirelessly to make life better for you.
We’re undefining motherhood--one conversation at a time.

S1 EP5: How to Avoid Mom Burnout by Rebalancing the Load at Home, with New York Times Bestselling Author Eve Rodsky
Are you feeling the weight of the mental load and struggling with mom burnout? You're not alone. In a world where gender roles are shifting, yet the bulk of domestic responsibilities still fall on women, it's time to find a sustainable balance. This week on Undefining Motherhood, we delve into a transformative conversation with New York Times Bestselling Author Eve Rodsky, the mastermind behind the revolutionary Fair Play system.
Eve's groundbreaking book, Fair Play, not only topped the charts as a New York Times Bestseller and a Reese’s Book Club pick, but was also heralded as one of Forbes’s best books of 2020. Its profound impact has sparked a movement, leading to a card deck, a documentary, and an institute dedicated to helping families achieve a fairer division of labor.
In this eye-opening episode, Eve shares her wealth of knowledge and practical, research-based strategies to help moms in our community. She offers insights on negotiating domestic tasks, balancing the physical and mental load, and initiating these crucial conversations with your partner. Drawing from her extensive research encompassing families of diverse sexualities, socioeconomic backgrounds, and nationalities, Eve's advice is universally applicable and life-changing for anyone in a partnered relationship.
Get ready to learn how to rebalance your to-do list, reclaim your time, and prepare for a more manageable postpartum experience. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to alleviate the pressures of motherhood and find more space for personal joy and fulfillment.
And don't miss next week's episode, where Eve returns to explore what women can achieve with less stress and more time – rediscovering the unique, interesting, and joyful aspects of themselves.
