      • Lighten Your Mental Load | Ep. 47

        In the midst of what our entire world is going through, Celeste and Magen have found some light through it all. They recently sat down (virtually and in their own homes, of course) with Aileen and Felicia, two best friends of 33+ years, who created the website, Persistiny, and later created the app, Tend, to supplement the site. Two stay-at-home moms, Aileen and Felicia constantly felt judged and disconnected from most when they were asked what they do. As if "I'm a stay-at-home mom" wasn't a good enough answer for people, Aileen and Felicia wanted to make other women feel valued and appreciated that their work as a SAHM is valuable. They also wanted to translate the hard work SAHMs face on a daily basis to that of skills that can be used in the corporate world when they decided to go back to work outside of the home. This is where Persistiny and Tend were born. Aileen and Felicia provided Celeste and Magen with plenty of laughs during their chat because everything they said were extremely relatable to the parenting world, especially being a mom.

        • Finally, an App on How to Be a Mindful Mama | Ep. 45

          Calling all Mamas! If your self-care needs an upgrade, then this episode and this app is for you! Celeste and Magen chat with Carina Devi, Head of Mindfulness, from the Mindful Mamas Club about mindfulness and a brand-new app that will be launching on March 19, 2020. Carina and Founder and CEO of the Mindful Mamas Club, Terra LaRock, created the Mindful Mamas App, which is a self-care and mindfulness app for moms and moms-to-be. Mindful Mamas are helping to shift the narrative from what we need to buy as mothers to how we want to be in motherhood with a touch of a button. Their mobile app for iOS and Android teaches how to fit mindfulness and self-care into busy lives. Whether mothers have 60 seconds or 10 minutes, they created content that will help you get in “sips” of self-care anytime, anywhere. If you pre-order the app before it launches, you'll save 50% off in the app store!

            • Ways to Protect Yourself and Your Kid(s) Against the Coronavirus (COVID-19) | Ep. 44
              At the time of this post, the coronoavirus, COVID-19, is trending across the globe. It's just entered the United States where it's spanning across 13 states. It's everywhere. It's on the brink of becoming a pandemic. So far, more than 90,000 cases and more than 3,000 deaths have been reported. Maybe it's because this is a new virus to us and that's why everyone is talking about it and people are fearful of it, and Celeste and Magen thought it is important to share with you all what types of precautions you can take to protect yourselves and your child(ren) against the virus in this short episode.

            • How to Discipline Your Child(ren) | Ep. 43

              What's the best way to discipline your child? What happens when your child will not listen to you? Celeste and Magen have gone through this – and continue to go through this – several times a day. It's part of parenting. We are constantly repeating ourselves and our children are constantly fighting us. We share how we tackle irrational toddler behaviors and our struggles with our independent mini me kids. SPOILER ALERT: IT ISN'T EASY. It's also not a one-size-fits-all approach. At the end of the day, it's what works best for you and your children. Period. Join us as we navigate these rough waters and the approach we take along with what resources we've found along the way to help us.

                Celeste and Magen touch on several topics in this episode, but really focus on the overwhelming negative feelings when it comes to raising children such as wondering if your child is bored, whether you’re doing enough as a parent, feelings of anxiety and frustration, and death by comparison.
