Cat & Nat Unfiltered

What defines good parenting and how do you know if you’re doing it right? In the first ten years, we felt like we were exceeding expectations—an A+—even though it was physically and mentally exhausting. There were routines and the satisfaction of giving kids structure. Parenting changes as they get older. Now, it’s about sharing the role, letting them make their own decisions, and shifting into more of a coaching mindset. Parenting is the ultimate freight train ride.This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need to for your teens & tweens.

In this episode, Cat and Nat explore the complexities of relationships, particularly focusing on the challenges of maintaining intimacy amidst the chaos of parenting. They candidly discuss how their attention is often diverted to their children, leaving little room for romantic connections. Despite this, both express a sense of stability in their marriages, acknowledging that while date nights may not be a priority, their relationships remain strong. The conversation shifts to the importance of human connection, illustrated through a story about a young woman rowing solo across the Atlantic, highlighting the balance between independence and the need for companionship.As the discussion progresses, Cat and Nat delve into the darker side of relationships, touching on the psychology of individuals who commit heinous acts, such as murder. They reflect on how seemingly normal people can harbor dark secrets, emphasizing the importance of understanding the underlying factors that contribute to such behaviors. The episode wraps up with a humorous take on dining experiences, particularly the frustrations of expensive meals and the desire for free bread, showcasing their relatable and light-hearted approach to serious topics.

Cat decided to be proactive with her health and booked a colonoscopy and what followed was a masterclass in anticipation, oversharing, and full-body surrender. The wait for the prep drink to kick in felt eerily similar to waiting to go into labor. Constant check-ins of “Has it happened yet?” and then suddenly… a total system cleanse. We’re talking power-hose energy. Nothing left behind. It’s a very real reminder that taking care of your health sometimes means pulling your pants down. The big takeaway? Never trust a fart.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Parenting teens feels like uncharted territory. It doesn’t get easier, it just changes. This might be one of the most challenging phases yet: helping our kids learn how to launch. What used to be a natural progression into independence now feels far less automatic, and more dependent on us. We love that our kids still want to be close, but does that closeness help them grow or quietly hold them back? Will we have to literally push them out of the nest? And how much should they really be sharing with us?This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need to for your teens & tweens.

Every girl needs to watch Martha Stewart’s documentary. Martha is peak feminist goals! She ran the world and didn’t apologize for it. A man would have been praised for doing half the stuff she did, but Martha got called a b!tch. No dad ever hears that he's “non-paternal” for not staying home with the kids—so why did we shame Martha like that? Then, she went to prison, came out swinging, and somehow even scored a new BFF in Snoop!Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

And while we all get that emotions can run high, Nat is definitely not the “let’s hug it out” type. After today’s episode, it’s clear she’s also not the shoulder to cry on type. Nat prefers to shut it down before things get too carried away!This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need to for your teens & tweens.

In this repeat episode we’re talking about holding space for the “ugly” days—the ones where life just feels messy. Maybe you do the same thing as yesterday, but it still feels off. And if we need space to have an ugly day then guess what? So do our kids. Let’s normalize not loving every single moment. Stop fighting the feeling—there’s always tomorrow, or even later today. It’s okay if things don’t change. Bad days happen… for you, and for your kids. And that’s completely fine.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?
