Mom Jokes: Farideh Olsen

Canadian Love Map

Today's story comes from Farideh Olson, of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

For a lot of new mothers, an unexpected part of the journey comes when figuring out your "new normal." After all, having a baby radically changes your day-to-day lifestyle, especially for mothers.

For the free-spirited, hard-rocking Farideh, motherhood meant having to step away from the lifestyle of a touring musician and into a new kind of spotlight. After years touring the country with her band, Rosie and the Riveters, Farideh found herself settling into a new life at home with her daughter. Following her passion to entertain, Farideh threw herself into comedy, eventually finding a new audience on TikTok and Instagram.

Today, Farideh embodies the spirited voice of feminine rage experienced by herself and other moms, commiserating over the good, the bad, and the downright ugly parts of motherhood. Her audience has grown to over 350,000 on TikTok, with viewers commenting that Farideh's content makes them feel seen, validated, and less alone.

Listen to hear how this talented woman reinvented herself and found new purpose embracing her identity as a mother.
