You’ve outgrown the baby stage — but you still feel like you’re coming undone in the carpool line.
This podcast is for the moms in the middle of motherhood — managing moods (yours and theirs), hormones, identity shifts, messy marriages, mental health spirals, and maybe one too many Starbucks runs.

Hosted by Jaime Hunter, founder of The Common Moms, This is Common is a no-filter, no-fluff podcast about what happens after the swaddles and sleep regressions — when your kids get louder and your emotions get heavier… and no one’s talking about it.

Expect unfiltered solo episodes, real guest convos, audio hugs, and the occasional well-earned f-bomb.
It’s not a parenting podcast. It’s a permission slip.

You’re not too much. You’re not failing. You’re just in it.
And this? This is common.

  • Feeling Stuck? 5 Tools to take that First Step
    Jun 18 2026

    You're not unhappy. You're not in crisis. You're just... stuck. Stuck in a job, a relationship, a season of motherhood, or a life that looks good on paper but feels off.

    Here's the truth most of us miss: we're not stuck because we don't know what to do. We're stuck because we're waiting to feel ready, waiting for certainty, waiting for the path to magically light up. And while we wait, months turn into years.

    In this episode, I'm sharing five things you can actually do to get unstuck — not five things to think about, five tools to use. We'll name what's really stuck, face what you've been avoiding, find the smallest possible next step, stop waiting to feel ready, and build a "proof list" of the hard things you've already survived.

    Whether you're driving, folding laundry, or hiding in the bathroom for one quiet minute, you'll walk away with a real plan. Because getting unstuck was never one giant leap. It's one small decision, repeated.

    Your next chapter is waiting for you to take the first step.

  • Parenting Teens Through Social Media and FOMO
    May 15 2026

    Parenting teens today feels completely different than it did even ten years ago — and honestly? A lot of us are figuring it out in real time.

    In this episode of This Is Common – Life Beyond the Baby, we’re talking about the emotional reality of raising teenagers in a world of social media, smartphones, AI, vaping, anxiety, constant comparison, online pressure, and nonstop stimulation.

    Because modern parenting isn’t just about keeping our kids physically safe anymore — it’s about protecting their mental health, emotional well-being, attention span, self-esteem, and nervous system too.

    In this raw, honest, and practical episode, we discuss:

    • parenting teens in the digital age
    • social media and teen mental health
    • screen time and overstimulation
    • why teens seem emotionally overwhelmed
    • how phones and social media impact the teenage brain
    • setting healthy boundaries without becoming controlling
    • building trust and communication with your teen
    • practical parenting tools that actually help
    • how to stay connected to your teenager in a distracted world

    We also dive into the pressure parents feel to let kids have “what everyone else has,” the fear of saying no, and why so many moms feel exhausted trying to raise emotionally healthy kids in an online world we barely understand ourselves.

    If you’re raising teens, preteens, or tweens and wondering:

    • “Am I being too strict?”
    • “How do I protect my child without isolating them?”
    • “Why does parenting feel harder now?”
    • “How do I get my teen to actually talk to me?”

    This episode will leave you feeling validated, informed, and more confident in your parenting decisions.

    Because your kids don’t need perfect parents.
    They need connected ones.

  • You Can't Do It All, But You Can Do This - Balancing Business and Motherhood with Lori Ervin
    Apr 15 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Motherhood is already a full-time job… so what happens when you add a business on top of it?

    In this episode, I’m joined by Lori Ervin, who has built multiple six-figure businesses online and now helps women grow their brands in a way that actually fits into their life.

    We’re not sugarcoating anything. We’re talking about what it actually looks like to build and run a business while raising kids — the messy schedules, the guilt, the pressure, and the constant feeling of being pulled in a million directions.

    Lori shares real, practical advice for moms who want to start something of their own (or are already in it and barely holding on). From managing your time when there is none, to letting go of perfection, to figuring out what actually matters — this is the kind of conversation moms need but don’t hear enough.

    If you’ve ever thought:
    “How the hell am I supposed to do both?”

    This one’s for you.
