This week I spiraled out with hilarious standup comedian & actress Abbi Crutchfield! (Up Early Tonight,  The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, The Kid Is In School Podcast)  We talked Mom shame, losing your cool, self-blame and that relentless internal critical voice, talking to kids about difficult topics, pandemic feelings, when your coping skills are also a defense, and soooo much more!

Plus, Abbi shares a shame story about a tiny jar of sprinkles that led to a not-awesome parenting moment that kept her spiraling for a YEAR (which btw is much longer than she deserved to spiral, in my humble opinion.)
