Summary

Glennon and Amanda decided to add a second episode each week after Glennon’s big move to California—in the first Thursday episode, they discuss: 1. Glennon’s experiment of Saying Yes to anything the universe invites her to. 2. How much screen time is too much screen time? 3. Are we all just Pendulum Parenting (over-correcting parents’ mistakes and screwing our kids up in the equal and opposite way our parents screwed us up)?

Welcome back to We Can Do Hard Things. This is a really exciting day because we decided

0:14.7

to add an episode each week and the reason we decided to do that is because while we missed

0:21.5

you, once a week didn't seem enough. Also, we were hearing from you that you felt quite

0:26.9

abandoned for the rest of the week. And thirdly, the responses to each episode and the questions

0:35.0

you're sending are so amazing and there are so many and we haven't been able to get to

0:39.6

enough of them on our first episode each week. So now we're coming to you for a second episode.

Hi, sister. Hello, G-Bird. This is so wild. I'm looking at you and your background looks completely

0:52.8

different and you, this is the first time I'm seeing you in your new state. I know and you all,

1:00.7

if it's a little bit echoey, I'm very sorry I'm doing my best, but I am in a house with

1:05.5

nary a piece of furniture. And so the echo is just the empty halls of this home, which is in a new

1:13.6

place we moved from Florida to Southern California all the way across the whole damn country

1:21.2

with all of us, the whole famed Emily. So me, Abby, Craig, Chase, Tish, Emma, our four dogs,

1:30.9

1:38.5

And now I'm even further from you, sister, I miss you. It was those hours that you're all in the

1:43.8

plane. I mean, it was the most anxious the whole time. I'm like everyone that one little bucket

1:51.6

of tin has all of my people in it. And I couldn't breathe. It was really tough. But then you landed

1:57.9

and I realized I probably need to get medicated. And it was, it was so happy. I'm so excited for

2:05.5

you for all of you. Thank you. We're excited too. It's all the newness here. We're trying to figure

2:11.2

things out. We don't know anybody. We don't know what to do with ourselves. It's like that very
