  • 065: Shame in Parenthood
    Does having emotions or being rowdy make my kids bad? After reading an Instagram post about how parents should make sure their kids are “good,” I had to process a lot of emotions that I have battled from the time my first kid was 10 months old and hurt another kid for the first time.

We talk through handling those emotions and share the single most shameful moment we have had in parenthood.

  • 058: Creating kid systems for a peaceful* summer.

    *as peaceful as summer can be with tiny humans trying to rule your home.

    This week, we are talking all about actions Wes and I are taking to help cut down the 1,000 questions we get from our kids each day, to give them more control over their choices, and to create better daily habits. I will be honest, I didn't create ANY of these systems. I am sharing all of the goodness I have gathered over time and am putting into action. These systems aren't rocket science but they will help any parent looking for tips to create a more relaxing summer.
