Bad Wives Club

School is back, the lunchboxes need packing, and someone’s crying at drop-off—possibly us. Liz + Libby are putting you on speaker for an honest catch-up about back-to-school routines, mom anxiety, and sharing the morning chaos with our husbands. We’re answering your parenting questions, catching up on Liz’s Italy trip, and figuring out this new season of motherhood together.

This week on Bad Wives Club, we're talking about:

• Starting kindergarten, emotional preschool drop-offs, and settling into school-year routines

• What we’re actually packing in our kids’ lunches

• Sharing morning responsibilities with our husbands and managing the mental load of parenting

• Kids’ screen time and the anxiety of worrying something could happen to your children

• Going from one kid to two and traveling with babies

• Finding a balance between fitness, nutrition, and enjoying your life

• Liz’s Italy recap and the “nappuccino” hangover conversation we apparently needed to have

“Something isn’t right. I need help.” Why is that so hard for so many moms to say? The conversation surrounding the Lindsay Clancy trial brings us to an important discussion about postpartum mental health, recognizing warning signs, and helping mothers feel safe asking for support.

SPECIAL GUEST: Alexandria “Allie” Hershman, licensed clinical therapist

This week on Bad Wives Club, Liz Fragala + Libby Pisano are talking about:

• Baby blues, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, postpartum OCD, and postpartum psychosis

• Intrusive thoughts versus command hallucinations—and recognizing when urgent help is needed

• Medication, psychiatric care, and gaps in postpartum screening and support

• The fear of speaking up and how partners, family, and friends can step in proactively

We’re sharing personal experiences and focusing on maternal mental health education and support, without assessing Lindsay Clancy’s diagnosis or legal case.

Love your friends. Still hoping someone cancels the plans? Libby is in her “family bubble” era, and we’re talking about the phase of motherhood where another invitation feels like another thing on the to-do list.

• Feeling too tired to socialize while juggling kids, the house, and everyday life

• Mom guilt, saying no to plans, and feeling like you should be more social

• Whether it’s motherhood burnout, getting older, or changing priorities

For the mom who loves her people but wants to be home in sweatpants by 6 PM—we get it.
