Episode 24 - Stay at Home Parent: The Job Everyone Judges, But No One Sees (Part 1)

What comes to mind when you hear “stay-at-home parent”?

Lucky? Lazy? Not working?

Or maybe… the person holding the entire household together with one hand — while wiping down high chairs, calming tantrums, and answering a dozen questions before lunch.

In Part 1 of this two-part series, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it’s really like to be a stay-at-home parent — emotionally, practically, and relationally. We’ll break down the myth that staying at home is “not working,” and start a much-needed conversation on why this role may be the most undervalued in society.

We also get personal — Nikki shares what her own stay-at-home season felt like, what surprised her most, and what she wishes every couple understood.

If you’ve ever wrestled with these questions - Should one of us stay home? Could we? Should I?

This episode is for you!
