In this episode, Melinda and Diahn tackle the question of what happens when the parenting skills you inherit from your own parents were the wrong things to pass along to your own children. This is part 1 of a two-part episode.

Diahn and Melinda discuss the various loads we carry as women - children, grandchildren, parents, marriage, health - and the ways they try to balance all the different pieces without dropping everything entirely.

Diahn and Melinda talk about what their families and what the podcast is going to be about - about the two slices of bread on either side of this sandwich generation.

We are part of what is known as the sandwich generation - basically, two best friends trying to muddle our way through middle age. So, we hope you’ll join us weekly, starting January 16, as we try to navigate this sandwich generation bullshit of being stuck in the middle of a bunch of people who ask way too much of us and come out still possessing a sense of self and purpose.
