The Parenting Olympics: Surviving the Events No One Trained You For

Parenthood is basically an Olympic sport—except no one explains the rules, the events change daily, and somehow you're expected to compete while carrying snacks, answering emails, and trying to remember where you left your coffee.

There's the getting-everyone-out-the-door sprint. The public tantrum endurance challenge. The bedtime negotiation marathon. The mental load decathlon. And, of course, the highly competitive event of pretending you have it together when you absolutely do not.

Join us for The Parenting Olympics: Surviving the Events No One Trained You For, a funny, honest conversation about the everyday chaos of raising kids, the impossible expectations parents put on themselves, and why sometimes the best way to survive it all is to laugh.

Moderated by Claudia Rupcich, this conversation brings together Janelle Marie, digital creator; Alyce Chan, comedian and founder of MOMCOM NYC; Tara Clark, creator of Modern Mom Probs; and Taylor Wolfe, creator of The Daily Tay. Together, they'll get real about the parenting moments that have humbled them, the standards they've learned to let go of, and the humor that's helped them make it through the chaos.

Together, we'll discuss:

• The parenting "events" no one prepares you for
• Morning chaos, public meltdowns, bedtime battles, and endless logistics
• The mental load of keeping an entire family running
• Mom guilt and the pressure to get everything "right"
• Parenting fails that felt catastrophic in the moment—and hilarious later
• Comparison, social media, and the illusion that everyone else has it together
• The expectations we've had to let go of as our kids have grown
• Why humor can be one of the best parenting survival tools we have

Whether you're currently competing in the toddler tantrum triathlon, the school drop-off sprint, or the bedtime marathon, this conversation is your reminder that nobody has it completely figured out—and sometimes just making it through the day deserves a medal.
