Sh*t We Say in the (Mom) Group Chat
Published on:
In this episode of The goop Podcast, in honor of Mother's Day, Gwyneth sits down with three of her closest friends—fellow moms she met at school drop-off who’ve since become her chosen family.
Each brings their own unique lens to parenting: Robin Berman MD, a psychiatrist and parenting expert; Tammy Ratner, founder of Mother The Self, holds an M.A. in Spiritual Psychology; and Daun Dees, a former schoolteacher turned fashion CEO.
Together, they’ve raised 15 kids—bringing a wealth of parenting experience across different ages, stages, and family dynamics. They talk about the emotional layers and complexities of motherhood: the identity shifts, the moments of doubt, the pressure to get it right, and the kind of support that only exists in a no-judgment group chat. It’s a raw and honest conversation about showing up, staying connected, and finding the people you can lean on along the way.
