EP 24 – Classy, Bougie, Ratchet – Why Mom Shaming Needs to Stop

Are you a RATCHET Mom?! ⁠No, not “ghetto” or “hoochie”…just a mom that still likes to have fun.⁠ Do you like to drop it like its hot in front of your husband?⁠ Go out and party with your girls?⁠ Flaunt your new mom hips?⁠

In this episode, we are discussing “ratchet motherhood” and how you can remain true to yourself while still being a great parent. ⁠Mom shaming is a thing but just because you’re a mom doesn’t mean you should be judge on how you are as a person!

What We’re Sipping On This Episode:

Menage a Trois – Midnight – The ladies actually recorded this episode before last week’s episode when they were still long-distance recording. So Shara is the only one sipping on something new this week. It’s described as giving your “palate with our bold blackberry and plush spiced plum flavors“. Shara likes the flavor and it’s also Sasha and Shara approved at 13.5% ABV.

About the Episode:

For some reason motherhood is controversial (who knew)!! There are so many expectations of women once they become mothers. And there is definitely an idealized version of what motherhood means. Sasha and Shara will definitely classify themselves as “ratchet” moms and it’s because they don’t believe that motherhood means they have to stop being themselves. Mom shaming as a thing has to stop! There’s no one right way to be a mother.
