One of my favorite podcasts

I’ve been locked in and a fan of MA since season 1! I love the content, realness of Blaire & Morgan and the support you ladies give moms & women in general. MA is a space for women to feel SEEN and encouraged! I always look forward to watching the new episodes to learning for you and the guests each week.

Love love love!!!

This is everything I never knew I needed. I'm not sure how I found this podcast but if binge listening is a thing. I did it. I finished all the seasons in two weeks. As new mom I feel like these conversations are everything I need and haven't gotten from my friends. My pre-mom podcast best friends were Antoinette and Shanti (Around the Way Curls) now it's Blair and Morgan. Keep up the good work, the honesty, the self care and all the things
