- 26: Stay at Home Mom While Black ft. Chandler
In this episode, you'll hear my conversation with Chandler. Chandler and I are both contributors for a local parenting website and last year she wrote an article titled “Stay at Home Mom While Black.” After reading it, I knew that I wanted to talk to Chandler about the article and her thoughts in general on being a stay at home mom. I really enjoyed this conversation and I think you will too!

37 min - 25: It's Okay to Talk About It ft. KaylaIn today’s episode I’m talking with my cousin Kayla. In our conversation you’ll hear us mention this, but growing up it always felt like I was so much older than her, but the reality is we’re only a couple of years apart. I wanted to have this conversation with Kayla because I admire her ability to be open and honest about her struggles. Her willingness to talk about what she’s going through reminds me that it’s okay to talk about our hard moments. And also, I just love her! She has such a fun personality and I feel like whenever we’re together she keeps me laughing.I hope you enjoy our conversation!------Instagram: @alaborforloveBlog: www.alaborforlove.com23 min
- 24: Stay at Home Mom Life ft. Allie
In this episode you will hear my conversation with Allie. Allie is a wife, mom, and fellow podcaster. We met through a mutual friend and also discovered we were both writers for a local parenting website around the same time. Such a small world! I recently joined Allie on her podcast Good Grief, Momma to talk about life as a stay at home mom. It was only fitting that she joined me here on A Labor for Love to do the same. In our conversation we discuss life as a stay at home mom and overcoming the pull of perfectionism in the process. Don't forget to check out Allie's podcast!
