Summary

Today is my birthday! On one’s birthday, one should wear a unicorn onesie and drink from a jeroboam (4 bottles of wine in one big ass bottle). #truth   I planned a few ways to kick off my 41st year. Cause let’s be honest, after you have kids, the only birthday celebrations you’re gonna get are the ones you plan yourself. I mean, my 4 year old would love to throw me a party – but I think we all know he’s better at throwing a tantrum than a party… Plus, the magic to planning your own birthday is that you get to do any damn thing you want, right? Listen in to hear what I planned for myself!   It is also Thanksgiving week. We’ll talk about my Thanksgiving blueprint here - how to navigate the food and the family drama. There can be so much of both…   I’m also sharing some listener emails with you. Getting your messages is magic to me. I love reading your stories and hearing how the Shameless Mom Academy has impacted you. Thank you to everyone who has written to me. I adore you. And special thanks to Shameless Moms Audra, Patty and Jessica, who let me share their letters today.    Lastly, in this week of giving thanks, know that I’m so thankful for all you mamas who make up The Shameless Mom Academy. You are my people. xoxo   Links Mentioned: Facebook: The Shameless Mom Academy Learn more about your ad choices.

Hello, shameless moms. So today's my birthday. I'm 41. And I'm recording this a few days beforehand. But when you hear this on Monday, I'll probably be really tired and

hung over because I think I have like three days
