In this episode, we had the pleasure of chatting with Rachael Reardon, the coordinator of the ABQ Mom Club, a vibrant community for mothers in Albuquerque. Rachel, a mom to three children under the age of three, brings a wealth of personal experience and a refreshing perspective on the challenges and joys of parenting small children.
Rachael shared her unique insights into the world of motherhood, offering tips on navigating the ups and downs of raising little ones while balancing personal and family life. As a mother in the trenches, she knows the value of support and community, which is exactly what ABQ Mom Club provides.
The ABQ Mom Club is more than just an online group—it’s a lifeline for moms in the Albuquerque area. Every mom in the city is already a member, with no sign-ups or fees required. Membership simply comes with the territory of being a mom in Albuquerque. The club’s private Facebook group offers a space for moms to connect, ask questions (whether about parenting or just everyday life), and share resources. Plus, it’s a great place to stay in the loop about local events, playdates, and meet-ups.
For those who aren’t on Facebook, Rachael ensures no one is left out by offering an email list to keep all members informed about upcoming activities and opportunities to connect with other local moms.
In a world where motherhood can sometimes feel isolating, Rachael’s work with the ABQ Mom Club is a reminder that no mom has to navigate the journey alone. Whether you’re seeking advice, looking for a playdate, or just need a supportive space to vent, ABQ Mom Club has you covered.
Listen in to the full podcast for more from Rachael about the Club’s vision and the importance of building a supportive, inclusive community for moms in Albuquerque.
