WICKED GOOD MOMCAST | EPISODE 1

Finding Our Mom Village

Guest: Leah Lynch

In this first episode of the Wicked Good Momcast, we talk with Boston Moms Senior Contributing Writer, Leah Lynch, about the importance of (and sometimes the lack of) a mom village. Shannon, Meg and Leah walk through what makes a great village, practical ways to find one, and how to be the village for another mom. This is a great, encouraging conversation that you do not want to miss!

A Mom with No Mom Tribe

I Don’t Know You, But I Will Be Your Village

Meghan Block
Meghan was born and raised on the South Shore and attended college in Boston. After college, she married her high school sweetheart and followed him to Charleston, SC, and Groton, CT, where he served as a submarine officer in the United States Navy. Military life was an adventure, and after six crazy years of service (and two babies later!), the pair decided to move *home* to the South Shore in 2016 and put down some roots. Meghan is the proud owner of Boston Moms and work-at-home mom to William, Benjamin, and Caroline, born in 2013, 2015 and 2019. She loves meeting new people, encouraging moms, celebrating motherhood, and supporting small businesses.
