Summary

This week on Always Here we're getting honest about Botox and filler — the decision, the guilt, and the beauty standards we're all quietly navigating as mothers. We also get into hypocrisy (the fun kind) and all the things we swore we'd never do before we had kids... and then absolutely did. Plus, you sent us your best mom-hypocrisy confessions and they did not disappoint.
