Summary

Doing It All is a podcast about what it really takes to juggle careers, relationships, parenthood, and identity—all at once. Hosted by Sarah & Maya, two moms in the thick of it, we pull back the curtain on the myth of balance and speak honestly about what’s happening behind the scenes. Through candid conversations, we explore the constant tension between ambition and rest, showing up for others and staying true to ourselves.Maya Carpenter + Sarah Borrero Parenting & Families Relationships

  • 079 - Businesses, a Baby and Barely Sleeping with Ana-Maria Jaramillo
    May 13 2026

    This week on Doing It All, we sit down with Ana-Maria Jaramillo—bilingual speech-language pathologist, founder of Voz Institute, and owner of beloved and viral taco spot La Tejana DC—for one of our realest conversations yet!

    We talk about everything from identity, entrepreneurship, building businesses… to fertility issues and challenges in relationships after having a baby.

    Ana-Maria opens up about her journey into motherhood, navigating her son’s early health challenges, surviving the exhaustion of a non-sleeping baby, and learning to release the pressure of perfection while managing multiple businesses and a family.

    We also get into:

    • Allowing yourself to feel angry about your pregnancy, birth, or postpartum experience

    • The emotional load mothers carry behind the scenes

    • Hiring your weaknesses instead of trying to excel at everything

    • Building support systems that actually support you

    • What helps her to “do it all” in motherhood

    • And of course… the art of the perfect breakfast taco!

    This episode is honest, layered, funny, validating, and deeply human—especially for anyone trying to hold onto themselves while caring for everyone else.

  • 078 - The Spectrum of Motherhood
    May 6 2026

    Motherhood is beautiful… and complicated… and sometimes a little unhinged.


    In this Mother’s Day episode, we hold space for the full spectrum of what it means to be a mom right now. We have an honest conversation about the realities of Black maternal health—and reflect on three recent cases in the news involving Black mothers that ended in tragedy. These stories are heavy, but necessary, and we approach them with care, empathy, and a desire to keep these conversations from being ignored.


    From there, we get personal—sharing our own motherhood experiences, how we’ve changed, and the versions of ourselves we’ve had to grieve along the way.


    And because this is Doing It All, we balance it with the moments that keep us laughing:


    our take on “freak numbers” (let’s just say… Sarah went from a 6 to maybe a 4, while Maya is a tentative 7 )

    Maya sharing a very honest “did I really just say that to my child?” moment that had us both in tears

    the phrases we say at least 100 times a day to our toddlers

    and our current favorite “horror movies”… aka what we’ve discovered in the depths of our kids’ car seats (truly terrifying)


    We also leave you with a simple challenge this week: do something for yourself that you normally do for everyone else. The same care, effort, and intention—you deserve that too. And if you do, post it and tag us—we want to see it


    We also read a listener letter that hit home for all of us—on grieving who you were before motherhood, and what it looks like to slowly find yourself again.


    Whether you’re holding a lot right now, missing your old self, or just trying to make it to bedtime—this episode is for you. Happy Mother's Day!
