Honest, unfiltered, and straight from the heart — Life’s a Mom is a real talk podcast about motherhood. I’m Nicole, a stay-at-home mom sharing my journey and inviting other moms to have raw conversations about postpartum, identity, relationships, and the moments that don’t make it to social media. This isn’t a highlight reel — it’s a space for real connection, real feelings, and real motherhood. Because you’re not alone… and you don’t have to pretend to have it all together.Nicole Kaplan Parenting & Families Relationships

  • I Have a Nanny, Chef, and Cleaners... and I Still Struggle
    Jul 17 2025

    I have a nanny.

    I have a chef.

    I have a cleaning crew.

    And I still feel like I’m one lost pacifier away from a full mental breakdown.


    Seriously — how is it possible to have all the help… and still feel like I’m drowning half the time?


    In this episode, I’m sharing the real, messy moments behind the “she must have it all together” illusion — because spoiler alert: I don’t.


    We’re talking about the invisible load moms carry, the pressure to be “enough,” and why even with a small army of help… I still forget the snacks, lose my patience, and sometimes cry in the bathroom.


    This is not a highlight reel.

    It’s a “yep, I’m a hot mess too” kind of conversation.


    So if you’ve ever felt guilty for struggling — even with support — or wondered if you’re the only mom barely hanging on… this one’s for you.


    We’re ditching the perfection, owning the chaos… and laughing a little along the way.


    Welcome to Season 4. Let’s do this… mess and all.
