I Just Sat Down Podcast

In this episode, we’re diving into the reality of co-parenting as partners. Not just splitting tasks, but learning how to show up for each other, communicate better, stay connected, and keep the “team feeling” alive—even when life feels chaotic.

We talk about:

• What real partnership in parenting actually looks like

• The moments that test your connection the most

• Taking turns holding space for each other

• Balancing strengths instead of keeping score

• The tiny habits that make the biggest difference in the home

Whether you’re parenting with a spouse, co-parent, or support partner, this conversation is full of honest reflections and real-life strategies to help you feel more supported, seen, and connected.

NEW Episodes are released every Monday at 10am EST.

In this episode of I Just Sat Down, we talk about speaking light into our kids. We get real about the messages we are sending them when it comes to body image. From the way we talk about our own bodies to the subtle things we say without realizing it, our words can either plant seeds of shame or shine light and confidence.

We share personal stories, gentle reminders, and ways to shift the conversation, so our kids grow up knowing their worth has nothing to do with a scale or size.

Pull up a chair, this is one every parent, auntie or coach needs to hear.
