We're kicking off Season 10 by asking a mentor mom we adore and admire—Ruth Chou Simons—all the things about motherhood. A mom of six boys, Ruth shares her best strategy for navigating sibling arguments, how to cultivate life-long friendships with your kids, and openly answers the mother lode question: what's your biggest regret in parenting? From small practical tips to big picture hope, this conversation ends with an encouraging line we're still thinking about.

This show is brought to you ad-free by our generous Substack community. If you'd like to support the work we do for as little as $3/month, head to coffeeandcrumbs.substack.com to join the party (and get bonus episodes!). For show notes, go to coffeeandcrumbs.net/podcast.

Ruth shared about all seasons of motherhood. But if you're interested in hearing about how autumn is going for us, listen to this bonus episode: The Great Fall Reset.
