HERself

by Abby and Amy

As women and mothers of young children, it can be easy to compare ourselves to others. But your life isn't supposed to look like hers! Being your best self means standing firm in your decisions and always being willing to grow with a purpose. Are you wanting more ease in your marriage? Or more enjoyment as a parent? Are you looking for a strategy to the health challenges you have been facing recently? Do you feel like you have been staring at a stranger in the mirror since becoming a mother?  Abby and Amy get vulnerable with topics around partnership, motherhood, health, and self improvement by interviewing authors, therapists, experts and everyday mothers. Our conversations will meet you with solutions and solidarity as you find a life path that feels aligned for you. If this sounds like you, hit play on your favorite episode title and make sure you're following the HERself podcast.

KatherineRoseWoller · Aug 2025

For years these amazing ladies have been helping me through not just the parenting journey but also just finding myself. The way they share makes me feel not so alone and covers everything from kids to marriage to friendships to health. I always look forward to the next episode!❤️

Step.Thought · May 2025

Used to love listening to Abby and Amy, but over the last two years, they’ve become less relatable. The podcasts seem too scripted and there’s been too many episodes focused on schilling non-evidenced based treatments, testing, etc. This goes along with their social medias as well- it’s non stop schilling. Super bummed because they used to be so relatable as moms, wives, and women.

Kehf15 · Apr 2025

I had the pleasure of being a guest on this podcast, where we dove deep into the topic of perfectionism. The hosts were incredible—thoughtful, engaging, and genuinely curious. Their personal experiences with perfectionism made the conversation feel raw and vulnerable, allowing for a rich, honest exchange. We were able to share valuable tips and healthy coping skills, and it felt like a truly supportive and enlightening conversation. Highly recommend listening if you're looking for insights on navigating perfectionism!
