It Takes a Forest

We talk about pregnancy + how isolating it can be, what it's like having hyperemesis gravidarum, and Emily speaks eloquently and powerfully about women and birthing. We both cry. 

Emily + Taylor talk about the bright sides of some pretty serious lifestyle changes due to Covid - learning to be happier with less - and how Emily is starting "Hugelkultur" in her back yard.

We talk about food, COVID, survival mode, the robot future, the importance of creativity, slime, Tiger King, Jim Carrey, knowing people who make the things that you use, and finding a new self-care routine in light of quarantine.

P.S. Tyler, I'm serious about the pancakes.

We talk about coronavirus + how it's impacting our daily life, pregnancy cravings, fresh eggs, and little ways of finding community during a time of isolation.

We talk about COVID, the recent influx of homeschoolers, finding your forest in times of social isolation, and how we do (or don't) parent when other parents are around.

Emily + Taylor talk about nausea, California vibes, "Easter Eggers," springtime activities, and living in the Idiot's Hill Neighborhood.

Our first-ever guest episode with Marti Lathrop was so much fun, we couldn't decide on a name for it. We hear about homeschooling from a mama and educator who homeschooled her two boys all the way through--and loved it. 

We discuss whether or not we're "qualified" to homeschool--and what those qualifications look like, mean, or don't mean, when it comes to teaching our kids at home.

Emily also introduces us to a "septarian nodule" in our first Crystal of the Week segment. Super cool!
