Did motherhood make us more "woo-woo"... or just a little more open-minded?

This week we're talking crystals, breathwork, meditation, fertility journeys, and all the things we used to think we'd never be into. Turns out when life gets messy—and motherhood reminds you how little control you actually have—you start looking at things a little differently.

We're not here to convince anyone that crystals have magical powers. We're talking about why so many moms find comfort in rituals, intentions, and anything that helps us feel a little more grounded.

Plus: the weirdest thing Kendall has ever done to get pregnant, the Joshua Tree crystal shop that cracked this whole conversation open,, and a listener submission that got the laugh we needed.

If you've ever caught yourself thinking, "okay...maybe I'll try it..." ...wait...same.

• Motherhood has a way of softening our certainty and opening us to things we never thought we'd try.
• Sometimes rituals aren't about magic—they're about creating intention, hope, and a sense of control.
• Fertility journeys can lead us to unexpected places, emotionally and spiritually.
• You don't have to choose between science and curiosity; many moms find value in both.
• Kids will humble you in public...especially when they're learning anatomy.
