Mommy Couch Confessions

Hey Y'all! In a time of parenting being largely defined as how well our children behave and how close we can get to completing the Pinterest checklists, let me remind you that sometimes acknowledging that you did your best is enough. And if your best is that your children have full bellies and are still breathing, congratulations mama, you get a gold star!

Hey Y'all! Listen, it's hard enough being a present and engaged parent in this world of non-stop movement but what happens when the child you are raising in your personality doppelganger? We can't parent the "us" out of them, but until we learn to engage in a way that acknowledges the similarities and differences we have, the struggle will never go away.

Hey Y'all! Let's be honest, just keeping a house clean in the midst of mothering, adulting and breathing can be a struggle. Between stepping on Legos that are hidden in the carpet and the overwhelming laundry piles on the couch, creating and maintaining home organization is essential. It not only keeps things looking good but helps keep mommy meltdowns to a minimum...sometimes!

As women break glass ceilings and continue to excel in careers, the potential to earn more income than your husband in a marriage becomes more of a reality. Join us on the couch for this inaugural interview with my friend Dr. Stefany Anderson, MD as we explore how the issue of being the greater income earner can creep in and how she traversed this topic within her marriage. Join us on this journey about money, therapy and how a few collar snatches from the Lord helped refocus and overcome this potential hurdle.

Hey Y'all! Just like in traditional work settings, paid time off (PTO) is an exciting benefit we get to make use of, parenting is no different! The job description is ever-evolving, demanding and sometimes we need to cash in a few of our days to recenter, rest and not have to be responsible for other human beings. There's something renewing about being solo with your own womanly awesomeness every now and again!

Hey Y'all! Join me on the couch this episode as we address the reality that most of us adopted messaging in childhood stemming from less than stellar events that have followed us into adulthood and sometimes in our parenting. Looking back can be hard and painful BUT that doesn't mean we should ignore pasts. Doing so may cause us to repeat some of the same cycles with our children. When nothing changes, nothing changes and I think we can agree, we want better for the next generation.
