Bad Wives Club

Kids & Family, Parenting

Welcome to The Bad Wives Club! We’re Libby & Liz — two best friends bringing our phone conversations straight to your speakers. We talk about the good, the bad, and the real life of marriage and motherhood. We’ve been through it all together for over 15 years—growing up, growing families, and figuring out life one stage at a time. We’re not professionals, just two moms keeping it real and leaving the expert advice to, well… the experts. Tune in weekly to hear all about how we juggle our daily lives as working moms, all while confidently NOT doing it all (*insert husband here*)!

  1. Bad Wives, Good Spirits: Ghost Stories with Tiffany Rice | 122

    Episode 122

    Show notes

    Consider this your spooky sleepover with the Club—except our guest actually investigates haunted houses, and we’re suddenly questioning every flickering light.

    Our friend and spirit medium Tiffany Rice (@spirittiff) joins us for a Halloween conversation about her early experiences, her paranormal-investigation days, and the difference between something feeling haunted and something feeling scary. We’re asking all the questions—including whether we’d actually want to know who else might be hanging around our homes.

    And yes, there’s a moment during recording that has us looking around the room. You’ll know it when you hear it.

    In this episode:

    • Ouija boards, childhood spooky games, and Tiffany’s early sense of “knowing.”
    • Learning to trust your intuition—and staying open when you’re skeptical.
    • Paranormal investigations, ghost-hunting equipment, and Tiffany’s experiences in her own home.
    • Staying overnight at the Lizzie Borden house, the room that unsettled her, and her take on the Netflix portrayal.
    • The unexpected “did you see that?” moment during recording.
    • What happens when sensitive information comes up in a reading, and how Tiffany approaches those conversations.
    • Halloween, loved ones in spirit, and why Tiffany says connection isn’t limited to spooky season.

    HALLOWEEN GIVEAWAY We’re giving one lucky listener a pair of tickets to Tiffany Rice’s December 13 show at Alamo Drafthouse in Boston’s Seaport! Follow us on Instagram @badwivesclubpodcast for giveaway details and how to enter.

  2. Is this My Personal Choice or My Algorithms? | 121

    Episode 121

    Show notes

    Liz is back from a girls’ trip to the Cape with plenty to say and barely a voice to say it. This week, we’re catching up on JJ loving—and crushing it at—hockey, which gets us into the world of youth sports and being sports moms.

    Then we’re asking ourselves: Would we be doing half the things we do as moms if we hadn’t seen someone doing them on social media? From mom fads we’ve bought into to the ones we’re skipping, we talk about how much our feeds influence our parenting—and what we actually want to spend our time doing.

    Plus, Libby shares an exciting update about Joe pursuing real estate full time, and we catch up on what Sonny’s eating from Little Spoon. Including pitaya… which apparently is something we’re serving our babies before we even know what it is.

    We also talk about the holidays and how we are looking forward to it because we have so much to be grateful for this year and incorporating new traditions!

  3. Disney Mom vs. Disney Aunt: Our Unfiltered Trip Recap | 120

    Episode 120

    Show notes

    Liz’s sister Kristen is back & she’s been putting in WORK.

    You know her from Liz’s Instagram or past episodes she’s been a guest on, but this week she’s recapping their recent Disney trip from an aunt’s perspective. She crashed Liz’s family trip, got the full experience, and decided a couple of days was plenty.

    Then Liz’s unexpected trip to the ER left Kristen holding down the house with three kids…until five neighborhood kids joined them. Eight kids. One over-stimulated Type A Kristen.

    We’re talking family vacations, aunt life, and the sister who always shows up even when the job description keeps changing (like helping us with this podcast)...

    What we talked about:

    • Where we stayed (with help from our parents’ Disney Vacation Club membership. We know that’s a privilege—Disney is expensive)
    • What we loved (the best character breakfast, and BTS of Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique)
    • Rides and reality checks (why we could skip Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party next time)
    • Back home (Liz’s migraine-with-aura experience, asking for help and Aunt Kristen taking over)

    REMEMBERING CELINE: Today, October 15, is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. Join us in lighting a candle at 7 p.m. your local time for the Wave of Light, honoring the babies we’ve lost and the families who carry their memory.

    On October 24, Liz’s sister Kelly is teaching a BBB workout fundraiser at the Hilton Boston Park Plaza, with proceeds benefiting March of Dimes. Liz, Kristen, and Libby will all be there!! Come work out with us and support a cause close to our family.

    Join Kelly for BBB Moves for March of Dimes: Saturday, October 24, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. ET, Hilton Boston Park Plaza. In honor of Celine; proceeds benefit March of Dimes. Get tickets here.

  4. Raising Kids in a World of Instant Gratification | 119

    Episode 119

    Show notes

    How do we teach kids patience and hard work when everything they want is one click away? This week on Bad Wives Club, we’re talking about parenting in a world of instant gratification, teaching kids responsibility, and getting them involved in household chores.

    Liz shares how her Skylight calendar is helping organize family routines and motivate her kids to pitch in. We compare chore charts and reward systems for kids, the ones that work, the ones that flop, and why Libby’s pretty much always fall apart. Plus, why does everyone want to be “helper of the day” at school but never at home?!

    We also share some big podcast news: we hired our first manager! Libby reflects on being a mom of three, how motherhood feels different with her third baby. She also opens up about her August “crash out,” postpartum overwhelm, and the mental load of motherhood long after the newborn stage.

    An honest, funny conversation about raising responsible kids, managing life as working moms, and trying to teach patience when we’re running out of it ourselves.

  5. Kelly Brabants Gallo Part 2: The Collection She Never Gave Up On | 118

    Episode 118

    Show notes

    Our sister and BFF, Kelly Brabants Gallo, is back for part two—and this one is for the BBB girls.

    In part one, we talked about motherhood, marriage, and navigating grief after losing her daughter, Celine. So many of you sent us and Kelly the most heartfelt messages about what that conversation meant to you. Knowing it helped someone feel a little less alone is exactly why we do this.

    This week, we’re getting into the story behind the collection Kelly never gave up on. If you’ve been wearing Booty by Brabants since the Not Your Average Basic days, you already know how special this fabric is. But what you haven’t heard is everything it took to bring it back.

    Kelly opens up about manufacturing setbacks, the financial risks of running a small business, and trying to keep going when her personal world had fallen apart. She shares why she put the collection on hold, what changed behind the scenes, and how she finally got to a place where she could stand behind every detail. We also get into the fit, sizing, new silhouettes, and why we’ve been wearing these pieces on repeat.

    Whether you’re building something of your own or have been a BBB customer for years, this conversation gives you a real look at the person—and the persistence—behind the clothes. We’re so proud of her.

    And please stay until the end. Kelly’s husband joins us for a rapid-fire round that turns into a conversation about marriage, working parenthood, and learning how to ask each other for help. There’s football, a chicken cutlet story, and a thank-you to the BBB community that had all of us emotional. The most special way to close out these two episodes.

    SHOP & CONNECT

    Explore the collection Kelly brought back on September 30 at Booty by Brabants, and follow Kelly + the BBB team for collection updates, free live workouts, and upcoming events.

    Join us in Boston on October 24, 2026, for Kelly’s Park Plaza workout honoring Celine and benefiting March of Dimes. Bring a friend and get your tickets here.

  6. One Day At A Time: Grief, Healing + Motherhood with Kelly Brabants Gallo Pt. 1 | 117

    Episode 117

    Show notes

    This week, we’re joined by Kelly Brabants Gallo, founder of Booty by Brabants, Body by Brabants and The Beehive Studio, for an honest conversation about motherhood, infant loss, miscarriage, trying to conceive, and pregnancy after loss.

    Kelly shares what her fitness routine looks like today, including how she maximizes a short 20-minute workout, adjusts movement for different bodies and seasons of life, and prioritizes hydration, sleep, strength training, and consistency. She also opens up about balancing motherhood with being an entrepreneur and business owner, setting boundaries, and learning not to overplan every part of life.

    Kelly reflects on finding the hope and courage to try to conceive again after losing her daughter, Celine. She discusses the loneliness of miscarriage and TTC, the fear she carried throughout her subsequent pregnancy, and how EMDR therapy helped her process trauma and prepare to welcome her son, Troy.

    Now four months postpartum, Kelly talks about adjusting to parenthood, returning to her businesses when she felt ready, communicating with her husband, and learning how to reconnect after disagreements. It’s a powerful conversation about resilience, presence, fitness, relationships, pregnancy after loss, and holding both grief and hope both at the same time.
