Coffee Talk With The Cajun Mamas: Beyond the Vehicle: What Really Defines Your Parenting?
Manage episode 508207138 series 3592329
Have you heard about the viral mom stereotypes taking over social media? The "White SUV Mom" versus the "Black SUV Mom" debate has become shorthand for different approaches to motherhood—but how accurate are these categories really?
As we celebrate our one-year podcast anniversary (and 75,000 downloads!), we're diving into these hilarious stereotypes while confessing what our vehicles actually look like behind the Instagram-worthy facade. Spoiler alert: there are goldfish crackers everywhere, and neither of us has washed our cars in... well, let's just say it's been a while.
Beyond vehicle preferences, we explore other mom categorizations that have us laughing at ourselves: Are you a hot coffee or iced coffee mom? Crockpot devotee or drive-thru regular? Target shopper or Dollar General warrior? Essential oils believer or "just give them Tylenol" pragmatist? Each revelation brings us closer to the truth—we're all just doing our best with what we've got.
The conversation takes a heartfelt turn when we share the wisdom that's carried us through the chaos of motherhood: "Something's going to get left undone. Make sure it's not you or your family." In a world obsessed with categorizing mothers, we're reminding each other that the state of our vehicles doesn't define our worth as parents.
Whether you drive a pristine SUV or a crumb-filled minivan, this episode is your permission slip to let go of the pressure to fit neatly into mom stereotypes. Because at the end of the day, we're all just running on coffee and prayers!
