Meaning Full Living

242

Hayley Hubbard, mom to three, and wife to a country music star, and Jessica Diamond, registered dietitian nutritionist and mom to one are here to make parenthood a little easier and a lot less lonely. Parenting is hard. And the thousands of decisions we’re forced to make everyday can feel daunting. Should I listen to my pediatrician, my mother, this website? Will other moms judge me for doing it this way? While we’ve never had access to so much information, it’s never been harder to find the simple, practical knowledge and vulnerable real life experiences we need to feel confident in the choices we make as parents. Every Monday, we break it down, sharing the real side of parenting through simple expert information and candid, personal experiences, because when you remove the doubt, fear, and stress from everyday parenting decisions, you create more time for the meaning full moments. It takes a village we’re so excited to share ours with you.

    WHY
    I love you gals! I became a parent November of 2019 and have followed this show religiously since hearing about it. Every episode has given me confidence in raising a child. I have absolutely loved all of the collaborative episodes, or just the knowledge of experience!! Please tell me there will be another type of podcast haha. Take care and thanks for sharing with us

    so sweet
    it’s such a special place where you feel like they are friends giving you advice. I don’t have children yet and love listening! A lot of information would be super expensive to come by on an individual basis. Thank you for making it available and sharing your own stories and being so honest!

    Great podcast for new parents!
    I recently discovered this podcast, and both my husband have enjoyed listening to some episodes as we are expecting our first child. Only downside, one of the speakers seems to move away from the mic frequently so the loudness of her varies a lot so it can be difficult to hear and control volume.

    Mom Best Friends
    Hayley and Jess are basically the dream mom best friends. They break information down for moms in a way that is easy to understand and implement in their own lives. They are honest and relatable, and this podcast is seriously my favorite. I always walk away feeling empowered to be the best version of myself as a parent as possible.
  • Heather Costello
    Love this podcast!
    As a new mom this podcast has been so helpful as I learn to navigate everything from feeding my baby solids to switching from breastmilk to real milk and everything in between! Thank you for all the advice!

    Improper sleep advice
    I enjoy most of this podcast except when they advise on sleep. This person Katie is so off base with what babies need for sleep and needs to stop normalizing that babies “should sleep through the night”. Leave sleep advice to experts and not resorting to sleep training.

    Love this podcast and share with friends
    I work full time and don’t have a ton of time to focus on becoming a better parent. This podcast makes me feel empowered and gives me the knowledge I need to make the best possible choices for my two year old daughter. I share it with friends all the time! Thank you!

    The Only Parenting Podcast You Need!
    As a new mom, this is my go to podcast. Haley and Jess are so relatable and have real, honest conversations covering all kinds of parenting topics. I love their conversations with each other and interviews with guests. I love their parenting styles and techniques and their insights on how they approach parenting challenges. I could listen to them talk all day!

    Boring
    I tried to listen to 2 different episodes but the last one I was in the middle of a shower and had to get out of the shower just to change it because it was just so boring.

    My favorite moms!
    I find this parenting podcast the most helpful one yet (and I read/listen to A LOT of parenting advice)! Thank you for creating this platform, your honesty and for sharing so much knowledge! I refer to you as my friends, Haley and Jessica, when I talk with others about parenting! The only information I have ever found surprising was on episode 40. Your guest on the show talked about helping kids learn what lies are okay. This is literally the only time I have ever heard someone say something like this, especially when giving parenting advice, and I 100% disagree with. I do not think being dishonest with children is ever okay. Honesty builds trust, white lies are lies and are confusing for kids. This is the only episode of yours I have not finished. With that being said, I hope that you know I am still a faithful listener and will continue to drink as much of your knowledge as possible! My sister and I each listen and then discuss all the good advice you both give. Thank you!

    Comforting and real
    So grateful to have found this podcast and believe so deeply in the mission of Meaning Full Living. I appreciate Jess and Hayley’s candidness and sincerity and that of their guests as well. Something about this podcast feels like a friend putting their arm around you letting you know you’re doing a good job and it’s all going to be okay :)

    Great podcast.
    I love this podcast and have told friends about it. It’s easy and for some strange reason, comforting to listen to …and full of practical and credible information. I seem to get something from each episode to take home and use. And I’m starting to feel like Hayley and Jess may be two of the best humans on the planet. I love what they’re doing, why they’re doing it and how they do it. Others have to be feeling that way too. Part of my meaningful moments are in the car listening. Even though I can’t talk back, I feel like I’m sitting at dinner with friends. Sounds corny, but I think this show is helping me become a better and definitely, a more insightful and intentional person and parent. 5 stars for sure.

    Amazing!
    Love how it feels like they’re bringing mothers together. It’s like talking to a good friend. I learn and laugh so much listening to their podcast. Thank you!

    Favorite podcast - @willowchowsdown
    As a new parent, discovering Hayley and Jess’s podcast has helped me navigate through a lot of different challenges that are a part of parenting. They have great guests, awesome information, and a different view that helps me get a new perspective to consider. Shame-free advice and endless tips - what’s not to love about that! I also highly recommend the feeding course for building confidence around baby led feeding.

  • Akayh05
    Love love love!
    These ladies are SO great and helpful in so many areas. I don’t typically listen to podcasts but these have me sucked right in, sometimes I listen to an episode twice to make sure I don’t miss anything! So helpful for Mom’s.
  • HanIAm7
    Amazing information
    Every podcast I have listened to has left me feeling more confident as a parent. Not only with tips and tools on how the manage to crazy thing we call parenthood, but that I’m not alone in the thoughts/doubts that run through my head. Thank you to everyone who has been involved!

    New Parent Go-To
    This podcast is amazing. I recently became a first time mom and felt like I didn’t know anything! This podcast gives me the information and confidence I desperately need. I love that it provides information from an expert on the topic as well as insight and first-hand experience from moms. Would 100% recommend.
  • Klassicmann
    Gave me confidence as a first time parent
    The podcast has never steered me wrong and I use it as a baseline for my baby knowledge. I recommend to all new parents! I’m hooked now and will be a long time follower. Thank you for producing such fantastic content!!!!
  • Kendyl Elizabeth
    AMAZING
    I am not a parent yet, but this podcast already puts me way more at ease. These ladies have such a big heart and want to help as much as they can. This will be a HUGE resource for me in the future. Thank you for making parenting a little less complicated.
  • bfitz89
    Like it, but Ads need to be more defined
    I enjoy this podcast, but I really wish they would clearly identify ads. They go from talking and then straight into an ad—no pause, music, or anything. It’s super annoying.
  • AKWellington
    Must Listen!
    Jessica and Hayley are a wealth of knowledge for parents. From infant sleep to recipes/ feeding tips to toddler tantrums there are tons of useful information they discuss. If you have a child Meaningful Living is a must listen.
  • gregdub18
    Great!
    As a hopeful future father so interesting to learn from their experiences and the joys of parenting and cooking for kiddos! Love it.
  • eawh22

    Great!
    Love this. Very informative for moms. To the point. Easy to apply. Funny.
  • Nickel8409
    Ideas for upcoming topics
    Love this podcast! Look forward with pen and paper every Monday. For future topics, toddler talking back, tantrums and that whole deal. I enjoy hearing new ideas about eating in such, but let’s be honest negotiations of a toddler is my struggle! I would love more focus on positive ways to handle some of these issues.
  • TIFF fanny
    Excellent on every level
    I think everyone can agree that parenting brings new challenges every single day so it is so refreshing to essentially have a “quick reference guide” as a new parent. I have loved every episode so far and have been able to apply various aspects already with success!
  • m low2
    Part of my village
    Through the first episodes of this podcast, I truly feel like these women are now a part of my parenting village. The information is so easy to digest and is broken down to what you need to know and what you want to know. So grateful for this resource. I can’t wait for what is to come!
  • JessiMR
    A must listen
    The perfect podcast for parents in all seasons of life. Hayley and Jess discuss the things we all wonder about at least once or twice in our parenting careers. They approach topics judgement free and remind us all to give ourselves plenty of grace on the wild ride through parenthood.
  • KGinNCarolina
    Helpful & Enjoyable
    As a mom of two little girls under age 3 and a long time follower of Hayley’s on Instagram I was so happy to hear of this podcast. It’s short enough to listen to while running errands in the car or going on walks. I relate to so much that she talks about and also feel like I am learning so much to and some of the tips have already helped (hello, 3 year old tantrums) haha! Loved the episode with her husband too! These are so great and look forward to many more!! Thank you!!
  • Jessie L Bess
    The podcast we have desperately needed
    My husband and I can’t get enough of this podcast! We are both full-time working parents and have felt so overwhelmed with finding reliable parenting information on how to raise our 3 1/2 month old. This podcast is the best of both worlds - Jessica is so knowledgeable and breaks down all the information simple and reliably and Hayley has so much life experience to share. This is really the “Cliff Notes” guide to parenting. An easy listen but so rich with reliable information which we have needed. We are so grateful to have found this podcasts and now feel so empowered to be better parents every Monday!

    Mom & Nanny Approved
    As a mom of four children and a professional nanny in Nashville I often love to give positive resources especially families & new moms & dads .. A positive way to seize your commute and make it into a great way to spend this time, I recommended this particular podcast to both new mom and dad and they both really enjoyed it keep up the greatness!! -Kristine
  • SJS from LA
    Mom approved!
    I love this podcast! As a new mom I find the content so relevant. The content is presented in a clear and concise way that is perfect for my “mom brain”. I already used some of the feeding tips with my daughter, and I must say, it really helped! I especially love that the hosts are moms themselves because I know the information is tried and true!
  • CourtSense
    Keep at it Hayley!!!
    Wow! For those that gave 1 star to Hayley... you must be unhappy jealous people. I actually feel bad for you!!! Shame on you for the comments you wrote. How is this helpful or productive? I have seen both Hayley and Tyler parent first hand and I must say it’s impressive to see them in action... they are hands on with their kids and they have created an environment with lots of love and kindness as well as, when needed, discipline and order. Hayley and Tyler are lucky enough to have the resources to educate themselves with advice from experienced nannies and specialists. There isn’t any schooling for parenting and they are taking the initiative to do what they can to raise well adjusted, kind and secure human beings and then sharing what they’ve learned. They are generous and heartfelt. Bottom line is that the world is a better place because of the Hubbard family. Thank you for creating such a valuable resource for parents around the world Hayley! Don’t get discouraged from the haters! Keep at it! 🙏🏻👍🏻😁
  • In your face book!
    Shame on the haters 🥺
    I’m confused as to why people would feel the need to post such hateful responses to a person who is only trying to help others in sharing what she has learned. And for the record I have experienced first hand what an amazing hands on mom and person Hayley is! Her kids are happy, healthy and well adjusted! It takes a village to raise children and if you are blessed to have the resources to hire kind, knowledgable people why wouldn’t you? What is the point of this nastiness?!
  • TKL115
    The best parenting podcast to date
    I can’t tell you how much I love this podcast! It’s the parenting and overall life podcast I’ve been waiting for. Jess Diamond answers all the questions I have been having but couldn’t find the easy and right answers. She breaks down information in the easiest ways and Hayley is such an authentic and wonderful person to listen to. The two of them make me so happy together and this will be how I will be spending my Mondays from now. Thank you for creating this and supporting us through this wild journey of parenthood.
  • cksgirl

    The parenting podcast I have been waiting for!
    I am already obsessed with this podcast and can’t get enough! Hayley and Jess give the most practical knowledge every parent needs. They break everything down into easy to implement steps and the way Jess explains parenting advice is just mesmerizing - I could listen to it all day!! They are so PRACTICAL and truly just get it. Monday’s just got a whole lot better! Thank you guys for starting this podcast, I feel more confident already. You’ve got a loyal listener!
  • hart112
    Run, don’t walk, to listen to this podcast!
    The podcast that’s been missing in my life. Thank you, Hayley and Jessica, for sharing your knowledge and tips with the world. Parenting is hard but y’all are helping to make it so much easier. Subscribed and counting down the days until the next episode!
  • ChelsAnn!
    I’m so confused.
    I cannot comment of Jessica Diamond as I do not know much about her, but a podcast by Hayley on parenting is confusing. I’m sure she plays some role in her children’s lives, but someone who has an entire squad helping her and likely doing most of the work, should not be discussing parenting on a podcast. I ask Hayley if she plans to continue with this podcast to given credit to multiple nannies, chefs, and assistants that she has actually running the show.
