Hesitated to listen because I was apprehensive on the content. I was blown away by the stories and how well they were done; the entire series was excellent. These stories were captivating, the editing and narration were top tier. Overall exceeded any expectations I had.

Love Coffee & Crumbs SO much and the Making a Mother series has been incredible!

This was an incredibly well done series. All the stories were captivating, personal and informing. Truly well done and one of the best series I have ever listened to!

I’ve been a follower of Coffee + Crumbs for years and the Making a Mother series may be my favorite content! Very heartwarming and hopeful to listen to. Worth the wait!

I have loved this podcast for years but this making a mother series is truly amazing! So many tears! Thank you for sharing these stories.

As a devotee of all things Coffee + Crumbs, I have listened to the Coffee + Crumbs podcast for a few years. I love the vulnerability and relatability of the hosts, and each episode is practical and encouraging and entertaining. The new Making a Mother series is incredible storytelling, and I hope the podcast finds many more devoted listeners!

Have loved this podcast for years but the Making a Mother series is next level. Well done, y’all.

As a woman who has gone through IVF and open adoption myself, I was blown away by Kate and Cindy’s story in episodes 1 & 2 of Making a Mother! So inspirational!! THIS is what real love looks like! The production and storytelling was SO beautiful. Well done, Julie and Ashlee! I have been a long-time follower of Coffee and Crumbs, and I deeply admire the HEART that is behind everything that this beautiful organization puts out. I know it’s been a labor of love! —Rachel from 3 in 30 Podcast

I love the Making a Mother series, a story-telling podcast featuring women’s stories of what they overcame to become mothers. Their journeys are unconventional, heartbreaking, and ultimately hope-filled, showing us the beauty of God’s redemption.

What an incredible series! Thank you for sharing the stories of these women. The redemption story can become a reality now while we still live in this broken world when we look to Him for His redemptive power.

I am loving this Making a Mother series!!! What a wonderful way to show all the different paths to motherhood among so many different women.

This series is a masterpiece, my favorite thing on the internet right now. I would recommend to anyone with ears to listen to these beautifully crafted stories.

I’m not sure how I haven’t already reviewed this podcast?! I’ve been listening for years. It’s the one podcast that I will, without fail, listen to and always feel excited when I see that a new episode has dropped. I love the variety of topics they cover, their care in choosing their words, and the respect they display for various families and approaches to motherhood and life. One of the hosts has a child with special needs, which adds a dimension of empathy and understanding that not all families are working under the same “conditions” and may have very good reasons to do things the way they are doing them. It all adds up to a non prescriptive, inspiring, comforting, FUN podcast.

I love the coffee and crumbs podcast immensely, but need to specifically call out the new Making a Mother series. It’s embarrassing how many times I’ve cried per episode so far- tears from sadness on behalf of the storied women and children, but also tears of relief, hope, nostalgia, happiness. I feel like every emotion felt when BEING a mother is also captured in each of these stories of making one. Thank you for bringing these stories to the world. (And Ashlee and Katie! Every day with a new C+C podcast is a better day! I appreciate you both!)

Loving the new series, Making a Mother. Such beautiful storytelling that resonated with me as a mother, and also opened my eyes/heart to the different paths mothers have had to journey through. Bravo on this artistic gem, coffee+crumbs! You knocked it out of the park.

I’ve been listening to this podcast for years and it keeps getting better. It’s my go-to whenever I have time to listen. They’re intentional, faithful, vulnerable, and live by their motto of making mothers feel safe, known, encouraged, and loved.

Making a Mother is the most beautiful story telling that’s crossed my AirPods in years. I can’t stop recommending it to mom friends! And I can’t stop thinking about the stories and the brave women sharing them. I can’t wait for more episodes.

Making a mother is raw and beautiful. It is an expression of motherhood in all its forms. It is showing the beauty of motherhood no matter how a a child comes into the world. Thank you for showing all forms of motherhood, all stories and how we are all connected by the title mom. Even though all our stories are so vastly different

What a complete joy it is to listen and read the content that these truly gifted women put out to encourage mothers and women in all stages of life. Once you take the time to read or listen you will wonder where they’ve been your whole life!

I love this new series, Making a Mother, it is beautiful and compelling. I’m hooked. I love the new host’s reverent tone and voice, and the strength displayed by these women in their stories and in sharing them with others. Grateful to hear them. Can’t wait to hear more.

The first two episodes of Making a Mother are phenomenal. Such beautiful storytelling of redemptive suffering. Thank you.

Just Wow! Making a mother is making me cry and wait on the edge of my seat for the next episode! So so good. Super well done. Highly recommend!

It’s always a pleasure and feels like hanging out with girlfriends. No matter who’s hosting it’s a great group!

This is my favorite podcast—a warm, encouraging, heartening, and yet very real window on motherhood. I love the format and the hosts.

How have I not yet left a review for my favorite podcast? Coffee+Crumbs is a consistent source of laughter, encouragement, and inspiration in my life. Trust me—Ashlee and Katie will feel like your new bffs (just ask my husband, who hears me talking about them 😂). I often listen to old episodes and still find them just as enjoyable as the first time around.

Stumbled on this show this week and have listened to so many wonderful episodes. So helpful.

I was so happy and surprised to see new episodes in my feed! This is one of my favorite podcasts, and I have been missing it while they were on a hiatus! The hosts are so well-spoken, real, encouraging, and fun. It’s perfect for celebrating the wins of motherhood and also giving a sense of “you’re not alone” for the challenges that come along with each season of raising tiny humans, too. Highly recommend!

I missed this podcast so much! You guys were my go to listen for chores. So glad you are back. I love laughing and learning with the crumbs and coffee podcast ❤️

I keep checking to see if you are back for a new season. I feel like I just found you so I will definitely go back and listen but look forward to new episodes.

I always enjoy listening to this podcast. It is real and inviting.

Coffee and Crumbs is truly a feeling of an old friend! Always walk away with something that fills my cup! Been listening since I became a mother and I needed this group so much and still do!! Please never stop podcasting ❤️

The Coffee + Crumbs podcast is always my first to listen to when a new episode is available. The conversations are uplifting and thoughtful and I always come away with something that helps me as a Mom or leaves me with something to work on. Thank you for continuing to produce great content!

The first two episodes I listened to had me hooked. I’ve since purchased the two new books they all talk about recently released and can’t wait to read them. These real life conversations have completely helped my perspective on being a new mom and owing a creative business owner. I can be both an artist and a mama- just with a few tweaks in both roles. Thank you ladies for sharing your experiences, they have genuinely helped me in this new season.

I just love this podcast. It feels like a chat with friends! It is encouraging & uplifting while offering practical tips and advice ❤️

I used to LOVE LOVE LOVE this podcast. I am a city girl living in a rural area so I really felt like this podcast was time with the best friends I sometimes can’t find out here. But lately the episodes have felt cold and that the hosts aren’t being as genuine and authentic/vulnerable as they used to be. Those were the things I used to love about the podcasts because that is how I felt seen in every episode. It’s an unfortunate turn they have taken.

Really enjoying it so far

I can’t express how grateful I am for this podcast. There is so much authenticity in each episode, and the content is incredibly encouraging and relatable 🤍

This podcast has been such a blessing for this first time mama! Staying at home has been a tough transition for me since I’ve always worked, but listening to these ladies helps me look forward to all that is to come 💕

Love to listen

One of my favorite motherhood podcasts!

Beautiful, vulnerable episode on “what I would have done differently.” So grateful y’all shared what you’ve learned (often the hard way). I was worried this episode wouldn’t go deep enough. Right from the beginning you proved me wrong.

I used to listen to this podcast all the time! It was funny, warm, relatable, and helpful. This season, however, has been depressing. Every episode is about a tough topic… alcoholism, trauma, cancer, etc. Definitely not something I’ll be choosing to listen to in my few minutes of alone time as a mother of young children.

I love this podcast! I even subscribe to patreon because I think the content is so helpful, honest, and funny. I am not Christian, I am Jewish, so while I don’t relate to the Jesus stuff, I like that spirituality is discussed in the episodes. Thank you for deep and real conversations about trauma, aging etc. I feel like I know and love these ladies.

I understand that there are hard things and that people go through hard things. I used to listen to coffee + crumbs to bring some joy to the mundane tasks I’m doing in motherhood. It’s been heavy and not enjoyable to listen to anymore. I know things change and content changes, but it’s not a fun listen to after drop off podcast anymore. I miss feeling happy after listening to it. I’ve had to skip quite a few episodes this season and the last.

Highly recommend going back and listening to the original episodes, all of the episodes are good but there is just something so honest about April and Ashlee together. The old episodes were relatable, honest and helpful. The new show is just different. Katie is super sweet! Sometimes I feel like Jill is the friend that is always trying to say the “right thing” and feels forced/scripted , so I do really miss the honesty and rawness/humor the podcast once had. I feel like it’s less relatable and more like listening to a bible study where people are trying to show off knowledge which puts a bad taste in my mouth. I can’t listen anymore

This is my favorite podcast, I have been listening for years and this has always been my favorite. They mix authenticity with positivity in such a great way!

Thank you for being real! I love listening to you guys! Mama of three and most days are wild and crazy and I love every bit of it. Glad to have you in my ears while doing chores or exercising to feel less alone as a mother! You guys bring real life situations to the table! Also, thank you for not being Bible thumping Pharisees but speaking truth instead!

I love C&C. I recently subscribed to the podcast last month and now am listening through all the episodes. The episodes are insightful, funny, and feel like you are sitting around with Mom friends.

C&C is full of so much joy and love! Every time I listen, I have a smile on my face. They know how to encourage and challenge others by pointing to the truth in kindness. They help me to be a better follower of Christ, wife, mother, and friend!

My sister in law recommended your podcast to me….I have never ever listened to any podcasts in my life….my husband and I were expecting baby #2 but God had other plans…this was back in July. I miscarried at 12 weeks and I’ve just been really lost and trying to figure out the reasons and I just wanted to reach out and say….your podcast has been my saving grace. Listening to you talk about mothering and everyday life is so beautiful and amazing. This experience of having a miscarriage has definitely made my outlook on life quite different and it has re solidified my faith in God. I love how holy all of you are and I find such comfort in listening to your podcast so THANK YOU ♥️
