About This Podcast

Rated one of the top 10 #mompods by Podcast Magazine: Broadway Moms, Cara Cooper and Jessica Rush have returned for season three of their hit podcast, Mamas Talkin' Loud. Whether it’s a light-hearted chat, their series with special needs mothers (co-host Cara Cooper is one herself), or the months of content celebrating Int’l Women’s Month, Black History Month & PRIDE, many Tony winners and Broadway stars have graciously joined them ‘in the dressing room’ to share their stories. Whether discussing the motherhood journey, exploring the struggles (and joys) of being a mother in the Arts, and what can be done to make substantial changes to the industry to support parenthood across the board, these intimate and unfiltered conversations with the mamas have inspired listeners from all walks of life, building a community of support and comfort, throughout lockdown and now as we return. Listen, follow & purchase merchandise from the Mamas on Instagram @mamastalkinloud, twitter @mamastalkinpod & their website www.mamastalkinloud.com Thanks for listening! We hope you'll rate & review us and help us amplify the stories of the working mom.
