What Is Mom-101TM and What Can Visitors Find There Now?

Updated

Mom-101™ is Liz Gumbinner's personal blog, written as parenting and life essays under the tagline "I don't know what I'm doing either." If you visit today, you won't find an active stream of new posts. The site now functions mainly as a signpost: a short note from May 21, 2015 tells readers she is "not here much anymore" and lists where to find her instead. It's useful if you want the blog's background or want to follow her current work elsewhere.

What the site is

Mom-101 is a long-running personal blog by Liz Gumbinner. Its subject matter is parenting and everyday life, framed with a self-deprecating, conversational voice rather than advice-column authority. The site title and tagline set that tone directly.

What you'll find on the homepage now

The visible content is a brief update post rather than a feed of articles. In it, Gumbinner acknowledges that regular readers have noticed her absence and redirects them to other places she publishes and posts.

The channels she lists:

  • I'm Walking Here on Substack — described as "a bit like this place, only better," with a request to subscribe
  • Blue Sky — handle: mom101
  • Threads — handle: mom101
  • Instagram — handle: mom101
  • Facebook — page: mom101blog
  • Spawned Podcast — described as an award-winning podcast, with a direct iTunes link

The post also jokes that she can otherwise be found at local Brooklyn coffee shops "covered in the crumbs of delicious, delicious almond croissants."

Who this is for

  • Readers who remember Mom-101 and want to know whether it's still updated
  • Anyone looking for Liz Gumbinner's current writing and social accounts
  • People researching the blog itself as a reference or archive

Practical notes

  • Treat the homepage as a directory, not a content archive. The listed links are the intended destinations.
  • The redirect note is dated 2015, so the platforms named reflect what she used at that time; some handles or links may have changed since.
  • No pricing or login requirements are stated on the page, so nothing here should be read as free-or-paid access to any of the linked platforms.
