Today we’re excited to be welcoming Emily Oster back on the podcast! The last time Emily joined us to debunk many of the myths we hear as parents, and today she’s specifically sharing her expertise on how we can be more confident in the decisions we’re making as moms with school-aged children. 

Emily Oster is a Professor of Economics at Brown University and the author of Expecting Better, Cribsheet and The Family Firm. 

We were so glad that Emily came back to talk about this topic, because the decisions we must make do get trickier as our kids get older. This is the stage that we are entering right now with our little ones, and we know that many of you are in the same season or getting close to it, so we hope you find the information that Emily shares valuable to you. To hear more great advice from her, we encourage you to check Episode 98, the last time she was here to chat with us!

We’d love it if you shared the episode to your Instagram Stories and tag us, @herselfpodcast and @profemilyoster. If you could do us a favor and write a review wherever you listen to the podcast, we read every single one of them and are so grateful for your support in helping us grow the podcast.
