Shop ’Til You Drop… or Cry: Holiday Recap

In this week’s episode, Jill, Melissa, and Kelly are kicking off the holiday season with a full recap of their Thanksgiving celebrations—the chaos, the laughs, and the family traditions. The moms dive into all things Black Friday and Cyber Monday, reminiscing about the good old days of camping out in parking lots, sprinting through stores for doorbusters, and debating whether Black Friday still hits the same or if Cyber Monday has fully taken over. Jill is in full shopping mode and hunting for the best deals on baby furniture as she gears up for her very first grandchild.

Things take a heartfelt turn as Melissa opens up about her PTSD and the deep grief she’s navigating after the tragic loss of her beloved dog. The moms give space for an honest, emotional conversation about healing, triggers, and the complicated reality of grieving during the holidays.

Melissa is getting ready to jump on a flight and shares her first impressions of the brand-new improvements at the Pittsburgh airport—a big glow-up for the ’Burgh and long overdue!
