The 'Summer Rot' Chronicles: Making Memories Without a Menty B!

Épisode 97

jeudi 26 juin 2025 • Durée 01:05:09

This week, we’re diving into the hot mess that is summer parenting. We’re talking about how to not lose our minds while still being ‘fun moms’ (with no chill). From panicking over safety like full-blown helicopter parents to reminiscing about why unstructured playtime is a vibe. We get into the myth of the perfect summer, the fear of ‘summer rot’ (it’s not what it sounds like), and how to actually make sweet memories without maxing out your credit card or your patience. It’s sticky popsicle hands, endless snack requests, and plenty of Summer fun. Enjoy!

A ‘Geriatric Rewind’: The Zodiac Signs As Mamas!

Épisode 88

jeudi 3 avril 2025 • Durée 01:22:17

In this episode, we navigate through our weekly technical difficulties while discussing our ongoing fascination with astrology, particularly how it relates to parenting and understanding our children's behaviors through their airy zodiac signs. We explore the characteristics of different signs, the impact of rising signs, and share personal stories about our experiences as mamas. Then we dive into the topic of the zodiac signs as moms! We’re not experts on astrology, but we both love using it as a reference, and love guessing people’s signs just by listening to them and observing. So, we did some research and found a general consensus on what the signs are like as moms, and also which mom friends you’ll want to (or not want to) schedule play dates with according to your astrological compatibility. Enjoy, and please subscribe!
