About

This week on the podcast we welcome Rachel Sobel from Whine and Cheezits. We bring Rachel on the show to talk about her experience with divorce. We talk to Rachel about how and when she knew the marriage was over, how the decision came to being, how she felt and navigated through those feelings. We discuss what life was like after the divorce especially when it came to dating as a single mom and eventually finding a partner again. We spend time discussing the feelings and fears with each phase of life and Rachel offers tangible advice from her experience that can benefit many who might be going through similar situations. Listen now and follow Rachel on Instagram via https://www.instagram.com/whineandcheezits/ For more from Mom Like That Podcast, follow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/momlikethatpodcast/ and check out our website https://momlikethat.ca/ --- Rachel Sobel — the heart and mind behind Whineandcheezits.com — is a Florida native (via Long Island like the rest of em). Living the NEW normal: Marriage, Baby, Divorce, Remarriage, another baby. In between navigating massive loads of laundry, cooking 32 different meals for picky eaters, doing ponytails over until they are perfect with “NO BUMPS, MOM!” and double-fisting iced coffee, she finds time to write all of it down. In addition to being a published author and writing her own blog, she's a contributor for PopSugar, MommyNearest and has work in ScaryMommy, Romper The Huffington Post and Today Parents. She’s a speaker and a published author with essays in two anthologies about motherhood and pregnancy. Sometimes there’s sarcasm, sometimes there’s cursing but she always keeps it real. No filters or censorship, just a gal momming so hard and documenting it. After working many years in public relations and communications, she decided she had enough after one particularly bad experience that made her question what the eff she was doing? She stopped with the “what ifs” and hatched a plan to leave the confines of a cubicle and live her dream as a full-time writer. (In her dream she was thinner, richer and had much more clothing without spatterings of spit-up and breast milk, but beggars can’t be choosers.) She’s pretty Type A but admits that you are more likely to find baby wipes and a half-eaten bag of Cheez-its in her purse than cash.
