This week Kristen & Talia kick off the conversation by chatting about the new year. They discuss their approach to resolutions and intentions, but it quickly devolves into a discussion about diet culture. They chat about what they hope to instill in their kids, and what they are modeling. Kristen chats about her struggle this time of year as a trainer who also wants to change the conversation about our bodies. By the end of the conversation we end up setting some goals for the podcast in the coming year.

This week we kick off our conversation chatting about some motherly feedback from Kristen's Mom. After that we discuss our favorite moments/guests from 2019. It was so fun reflecting back on hilarious moments throughout the year, and recognizing how lucky we are to have these conversations! We answer two listener questions about our relationship struggles after kids, and hilarious toddler shenanigans.

This week we had some technical difficulties editing. Since it is Christmas week and family is in town, we did not want to miss out on that family time. Instead, we are re-releasing one of our first episodes: our birth stories! This episode brings you down memory lane of Talia's birth and Kristen's first two births. We hope you will enjoy this and have a wonderful cap to your holiday season!

This week we get back together to basically talk in circles about our expectations and stress levels right now. We also reminisce about the holidays as kids and wonder if the pressure is even necessary! We also sound super old when we have no idea what a current gaming system is, and share some funny stories from our childhood.

This week Kristen & Talia get to pick the brain of Rosalia from Consent Parenting. She brings us on her journey to motherhood, and her three different births. We get to hear about how she managed depression during her third pregnancy, and her introduction to meditation. We dive deep into the culture we can create in our home of consent parenting and what this means. We get to hear about some ways we can discuss this with grandparents, as well as how to navigate some tricky things adults might say to kids when they show their affection differently than the adult was hoping. We ask for statistics on sexual abuse, and learn about the age children are now being introduced to pornography and why that matters. Rosalia was a wealth of information!

We keep this episode short so you can get back to your holiday craze!

This week Kristen & Talia have an enlightening conversation with Cameron Kleimo of Sensory Mom. She felt like sitting down and chatting with a close friend. We got to go on the roller coaster ride of her journey to get pregnant, as well as her unexpected birth experiences. We then pick her brain about sensory processing disorder. She tells us about some of the struggles her children have had, as well as some early red flags, and a few coping skills. She also reminds us how important our mom gut is, and that we live with our children so we know them best. You guys will love this conversation!

This week we get to chat with Lauren Floris, host of the Up & Running Podcast, Olympic Trials Qualifier in the marathon, and mom of two. We have such a fun conversation chatting about birth stories, transitioning to motherhood and multiple kids, how the heck to get dinner on the table with so many balls in the air, and more. We got pretty caught up in our conversation so we did not get into any listener questions. We also discuss her podcast, as well as raising girls with body image pressures in mind.
