    209. Mothers in the Field: Covering Tragedy with Heart
    Jul 16 2025
    In this heartfelt episode, host Pamela Silva sits down with Sheli Muñiz, NBC6 news anchor and fellow mother, for a powerful conversation about what it means to be both a journalist and a mom in today’s world. Together, they reflect on how motherhood has reshaped the way they cover some of the most difficult stories—tragedies like the Parkland school shooting and the recent heartbreaking incident at Camp Mystic in Texas. They open up about the emotional weight of reporting on loss, the balancing act of staying professional while processing human grief, and how their roles as mothers bring deeper empathy—and sometimes personal pain—to the stories they share with the world.

    205. This Isn’t a Rom-Com, It’s Motherhood
    Jun 18 2025
    Motherhood is often sold like a dreamy rom-com—soft lighting, endless giggles, and matching outfits. But let’s be honest: it’s a little closer to a chaotic reality show with no sleep, a lot of mess, and a rogue granola bar in your bra. In this episode, we’re calling out the overly romanticized version of motherhood and setting the record straight. From unrealistic expectations to the pressure to make it all look perfect, we’re getting real about what it actually feels like—and why embracing the chaos might just be the best part.

    For years, we lived in the fast lane—juggling work, motherhood, relationships, and everything in between. The pace was exhausting, and the pressure to do it all left little room to simply be. In this episode, we talk about what it means to enter a slower, more intentional season. How did we get here? What have we learned about ourselves—and our mothering—by choosing to step back from the rush? Join us for an honest conversation about shifting gears, letting go of the hustle, and redefining what “showing up” really looks like in motherhood.
