The Motherly Podcast

September 17, 2026

Author and illustrator Loryn Brantz grew up thinking she’d be like Walt Disney, bringing joy to billions of children around the world. Instead, she’s given kids and parents laughter, and lots of it. The author and illustrator of several bestselling books, including Feminist Baby and Poems of Parenting, Loryn is constantly inspired by the relatable antics of her own two young kids. In this week’s episode of The Motherly Podcast, she talks to Motherly cofounder Liz Tenety about her latest book “I am a Spicy Nugget” and how she found inner peace amidst the chaos. Plus, she shares how her experience with OCD shapes her parenting style.
