In this episode, we’re talking about PMS—what it actually looks like in the middle of parenting, marriage, and everyday life. Josh had a quick work trip to Chicago, and it just so happened to land during Priscilla’s PMS window. We’re unpacking the real-life ripple effects: from miscommunications to solo parenting stress, emotional overload, and the small things that actually help.

We also dive into what we’ve been learning about hormone health, including takeaways from Dr. Sara Gottfried’s appearance on the Huberman Lab Podcast (How to Optimize Female Hormone Health for Vitality & Longevity), and how Priscilla is applying it all in real life. From sleep and gut health to hydration, poop (yes, poop), and vitamin routines—it’s all on the table. Plus, we talk about how we’re trying to respond vs. react in marriage and how that impacts our kids, too.

Stick around to the end to hear who won this week’s coffee giveaway (and how you can enter!).

In this honest and encouraging episode, Josh and Priscilla reflect on the parenting advice that has anchored them through the highs and lows of raising young kids. From the pressures of social media and milestone expectations to the quiet reminders that God’s got our children—even when we’re worried—this episode is a warm hug for any parent navigating early childhood.

Priscilla shares the advice that shifted her entire mindset during pregnancy: “Don’t worry about the little things. Focus on the one most important thing.” For their family, that means helping their kids know and experience a relationship with God.

Josh opens up about the confidence-building wisdom he received: “You’re the parent. You know what’s best for your child.”—a grounding truth that helped him tune out outside opinions and lean into parenting with purpose.

They also dive into co-sleeping, the courage to be disliked, why Proverbs plays such a big role in their life, and why Priscilla says “rabbit hill” instead of “rabbit trail.”

This episode will make you laugh, reflect, and feel less alone in the journey.

Whether you’re in the thick of newborn life or wrestling with toddler tantrums, this one’s for you.
