Brooke & Bridget, sisters, speech therapists, and mommies to their own kiddos are our guests today! In 2012, the sisters opened up their private practice for speech therapy in California, and in 2018 they started an Instagram account to help parents help their kiddos develop their language & communication skills! Before we bring Brooke and Bridget on, Doug and Jamie chat about the struggle to have sex (but they finally did!) and Jamie shares what she does to be able to always love her body and feel positive! Show Notes: 02:37 - Doug and Jamie have big news! They finally, after over a year, had sex! 08:46 - Doug asks Jamie if she has any tips about getting to the point of being able to have sex and improving her libido. 11:23 - Jamie and Doug discuss their thoughts on the importance of having body positivity and that we should love our bodies no matter what! 17:06 - Welcome, Brooke and Bridget! 18:08 - Jamie asks, what made the 2 of you want to do this together? 20:00 - Doug asks, what are the first milestones and how long would it be for you to consider someone late to talk? 22:27 - Doug asks, how do you easily quantify the amount of words your child is saying? 23:29 (28:19) - Jamie asks, what do you recommend a mom or dad to do for their child at the point that speech intervention is needed?
