The Mom Room

Melissa Janzso, home, fashion, and lifestyle content creator, joins The Mom Room this week! From having a 9-5 to then having kids, Melissa started her online brand after being pushed by her husband to take an interior design course when she decided that she would not be fulfilled by just being a mom. Now, Melissa has an audience that looks to her for furnishing their homes and building their wardrobes on a budget, as well as home improvement ideas and raising children. This honest, relatable conversation is filled with discussions from hormone testing to reality TV, to whether or not psychics, horoscopes, and mediums are real or not. Renee and Melissa connect on their own individual struggles when it comes to content creation, and how they both believe that it's okay to not have a niche because they are sharing real life moments. They also laugh about where they are more opposite than alike. Check out Melissa's page below!

Welcome back to Part 2 of my Living Better series! 🌿
This week, we're picking up where we left off after last week's conversation about decluttering and creating a calmer home. I share some new realizations I've had over the past week, including how shifting your focus away from yourself and toward other people can have a surprisingly positive impact on your mindset. I also take you through the simple morning routine I've been loving lately and why it's been helping me start my days feeling calmer, more intentional, and more energized.
Then we dive into Living Better Tip #2: making two simple lists. One list is everything that gives you energy, and the other is everything that quietly drains it. I walk you through some of the things on my own lists and how they've completely changed the way I think about my time, my schedule, and the choices I make every day.
If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like you're constantly running on empty, I hope this episode gives you a practical place to start, without adding more to your plate.
And stay tuned for Part 3 next week, where we'll talk about giving your to-do list a makeover, choosing a few meaningful non-negotiables, and re-prioritizing your life so you can feel more like yourself again.

Laura Clery, content creator and author, joins The Mom Room this week to talk about her new book What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Hotter. After dealing with a traumatic separation and divorce from her children's father, Laura has found the shift to single motherhood liberating and empowering, despite challenging at times. Going through divorce when you have children is hard, and Laura shares what it was like having her personal life on display for the public to weigh in before she even had time to process everything. Laura had been making content online long before she had children, but being a mom opened her up to a new audience with all the comedy gold that comes with the job. We dive into her career journey, as well as the incredibly terrifying near death experience she recently went through where she was stuck under a refrigerator! Laura also gives insight on what it's like raising a child on the spectrum, and why it's important to stay positive even when psychologists and doctors are evoking fear. Check out her book below!

July 2, 2026: This week on The Mom Room, I’m kicking off a new series all about the small changes that have completely shifted how I feel day to day. A few months ago, I made a list of simple things I wanted to focus on to help me "live better", feel calmer, more energized, less overwhelmed, and more present in my everyday life. And honestly? The changes have been bigger than I ever expected.
In this episode, we’re starting with one of the most impactful changes: decluttering and organizing your spaces (including digital!) one small area at a time. I share why tackling tiny spaces instead of attempting a massive overhaul has been so much more sustainable, how I’m maintaining these changes, and why our physical environment has such a huge impact on our mental well-being.
I also dive into some of the ideas that really resonated with me from Ali Abdaal's book, Feel-Good Productivity: How to Do More of What Matters to You, and how I’ve been applying them to my own life in a way that feels realistic and doable.
This is just the beginning. In future solo episodes, I’ll continue working through my "live better" list, sharing the habits I’m implementing, the challenges I’m running into, and the surprising ways these small shifts have completely changed my energy, mindset, and overall quality of life.
If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in survival mode, or like you need a reset but don't know where to start, this episode is for you.

Stephanie Venn-Watson, founder of Fatty15 and veterinary epidemiologist, joins us on The Mom Room this week to discuss the supplement that supports healthy aging for all. From working with the Navy to study dolphin populations in California and Florida, to creating a c15 supplement based upon her research, Stephanie brings us a wealth of knowledge on why fats are so important in every stage of life, especially during pregnancy and childhood. The awareness of how important c15 levels are in humans is growing. On average, one new peer-reviewed paper on c15 is being published a week through the world. As a leader in forcing the conversation around fats, Stephanie shares with us how you can get your c15 levels checked, which foods contain the best sources of c15, and why the discovery she made in dolphins 10 years ago allowed her to gain a completely different perspective.
