LIFE UNfiltered

This week, on Episode 12, as we continue recording LIFE UNfiltered remotely because of COVID-19, we talk about one of the most challenging issues parents everywhere are facing… HOMESCHOOLING. Because overnight, parents have become teachers, tutors, cooks, playmates, and therapists and everyone’s flying by the seat of their pants to make it work. Join us as we talk about what it’s like to navigate keeping your kids on track while you’re doing your own job from home. We’ve got some tips and suggestions for how to help you differentiate “school time” from “home time.” Have a listen!

LIFE UNfiltered is something new. Something different. Something real and raw and relatable. It’s a brand-new talk show that celebrates the messy, perfectly imperfect parts of life. Every Sunday from 11:30AM until noon, show hosts author & syndicated columnist Lisa Sugarman and licensed psychotherapist Debra Gansenberg, MSW, LICSW talk about the everyday issues that are affecting them as moms, wives, working professionals, and friends. Gansenberg, the mom of three boys, and Sugarman, the mom of two daughters, take the theme from their latest book How To Raise Perfectly Imperfect Kids And Be Ok With It, and apply it to every aspect of life from raising kids and marriage to work and self-care and everything in between. They talk, unfiltered, about all the stuff that’s keeping you up at night. And here’s the thing… they actually give you permission to make mistakes and drop some balls. And be ok with it.

Each week, Lisa and Debra focus on topics that affect all of us and have open, honest conversations about the good, the bad, the ugly, and all the moving parts that make up our day-to-day lives.

They incorporate a mix of clinical advice, stories, tips, proven strategies from the trenches AND the therapy couch, and a bunch of laughs, to help you find the magic within life’s screwups.
