More Than Mom: Romanticizing The Hard Stuff


Listen Later

It isn’t always easy to appreciate the mundane tasks of our daily lives, or to see the glass half-full when something goes awry. Inspired by yet another social media trend that had us scratching our heads at first (and then reflecting in spite of our forty-something selves), today Meagan and Sarah talk about situations from our own lives where we romanticized the hard stuff to get by. Join us!

LINKS MENTIONED:

  • Sarah recommends reading this New York Times article to better understand the phrase “romanticize your life.”
  • Meagan read a newsletter article by our friend Amy Clark of Mom Advice which inspired this episode.
  • Meagan interviewed Melody Warnick about placemaking, and how making a commitment to communities helps romanticize the hard stuff. Listen to the MOR episode on this topic!
  • Sarah is rereading the book How To Raise An Adult by Julie Lythcott-Haimes (This is an affiliate link)
  • We’d love to hear from you about how you’re romanticizing the hard stuff in your life! Email us at [email protected]
