  • Episode 19: Understanding Money: What This Means and Why it Will Change Your Life
    Jan 27 2026
    Welcome back to The Matriarchs. Today, we're diving into the importance of understanding money. This episode teaches young women how to develop a confident, healthy relationship with money, one rooted in knowledge, self-worth, and independence. We will break down the basics of budgeting, saving and credit while also tackling the mindset blocks that keep women from financial freedom. We promise this won't be a boring episode, but one that will make a lasting impact.

    Money doesn't have to be scary, stressful, or confusing, and you don't have to wait until you're an adult to start making smart choices.

    In this episode of The Matriarchs, we break down the most basic money conversations every teen girl needs to hear. From earning and saving to spending wisely, avoiding common money mistakes, and building a healthy money mindset, this episode is all about confidence, clarity, and control.

    We talk about:

    • What money really is (and what it isn't)

    • How teens can make money right now

    • Common financial mistakes to avoid

    • How mindset affects your spending and saving

    • Why your worth is never tied to your bank account

    Whether you're saving for your first car, college, or just learning how to manage your own money, this episode will help you start building habits your future self will thank you for.

    Because Matriarchs don't wait, we build.

  • 18: It Takes A Village: Because Motherhood Wasn't Meant To Be Alone
    Jan 5 2026

    Welcome back to The Matriarchs. Today, we're diving into the truth that every mom needs a village — real support, real community, real connection — especially when you're raising daughters who are trying to navigate today's world. From social media pressures to friendship drama, from confidence swings to dealing with ALL the moods that accompany the teen years… being a girl mom is a blessing, but it's also a battlefield sometimes.

    And that is one reason why The Matriarchs exists, to create the village we all deserve. A place where moms can come as they are. A place to learn, laugh, cry, grow, and breathe again. A place where we aren't judged, only supported.

    Girl moms need girl moms. Teen girl moms especially need a village behind them.

    Today, let's talk about that village. How do we create it, what sustains it, and why is it so important?
