Hi truly amazing Mamas! I hope you all had an incredible week. It’s Friday and you know what that means… a new episode of The Model Mama Show is now LIVE (woo hoo!). It’s week 3 of our FEAUTURE FRIDAY series and I couldn’t be more excited to announce this week’s truly inspiring Mama. Abby Ochse, the Editor and Founder of the super popular mom, lifestyle and fashion blog called, The Chic Mamas. She is a busy Mama to a 4-year old girl and recently added TWO more baby bundles to her adorable family. Abby now has 3-month old twin boys! This southern belle beauty (originally from Kentucky) moved to La La Land to pursue a career as an Oncology nurse. On top of running The Chic Mamas, she still works as a nurse and has since shifted gears to a Dermatology specialty. She also is married to her successful hunky actor hubby, AJ.

Ok, just typing all that made me exhausted:) I don’t know how she does it all… but she does with grace and a sense of humor! This mama will undoubtedly become your new bestie. She’s so honest, down-to-earth and hilarious about her transition to Mommyhood and how she navigates her oh-so busy life. I had too much fun chatting with Abby in our rosé-fueled interview… tune in below for all her wise and practical insights!

WATCH OUR FULL INTERVIEW HERE. Kick your feet up, pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass of rosé (we did) and join our real conversation about juggling it all: motherhood, marriage, multiple careers, and how to enjoy the journey. 

Some of my FAVORITE takeaways from Abby:

+ Motherhood is a team effort.

+ When starting a new venture, authenticity is key.

+ It’s ok to hit the snooze button, it just requires more preparation the night before.

+ Transitioning to Motherhood is hard. You have to fully process transition, and embrace the new.

+ Quality time matters most.

+ No cell phones at the dinner table

+ Balance is hard
