Hey Mama,
I see you there…scrolling at 2am, wondering if you're doing everything wrong.
You're not alone.
And you're definitely not a bad mom.
For nearly two decades, I've worked with vulnerable children around the world. I thought I had this parenting thing “figured out”.
Then my own son started struggling.
Anxiety. Loneliness. The weight of growing up hyperconnected but starved for real connection.
And suddenly, all my expertise felt useless.
Maybe you know that feeling.
So I did what any desperate, loving parent does: I researched everything.
Tried everything. What I discovered changed everything…
…The most important thing I can do as a mom isn't to be perfect, it's to be real.
That's why The Bad Mom Podcast exists.
This is the conversation you'd have with your most trusted friend. The one who's been there, who gets it, who won't judge you for admitting you're struggling.
Here, we talk about the stuff that keeps you up at night:
The anxiety that seems to swallow your child whole
Social media battles that feel impossible to win.
The guilt that whispers "you're failing" on repeat.
The fear that you've broken something you can't fix.
But we also talk about hope. About tools and resources that actually work when everything else feels like empty advice.
This podcast is a place for parents who feel overwhelmed, under-resourced, and deeply committed to doing better.
It's permission to stop pretending you have it all figured out.
Welcome to the conversation that's changing families, one honest moment at a time.
You belong here.
— Vivian
P.S. The fact that you're here proves you're already a good mom.
