Summary

A mom of tweens asks Meagan and Sarah whether we require our own kids to keep their rooms tidy (we have thoughts!); another listener dealing with cultural and generational divides in her family asks our thoughts on how to handle well-meaning grandparent advice. Finally, we coach a new-to-preschool mom on how to begin setting up playdates and social opportunities when you don’t know anyone at the school (and are emerging from a global pandemic). Join us for another installment of Listener Questions & Our Advice!

little to grown. We're in different areas of the country and in different stages

of life, but we both know that motherhood's a lot easier when real moms share

tips and encouragement. And remind you that it's really all gonna be okay. We're

So behind the scenes, we're recording today, this week's and next week. So we are

0:43.2

just sitting here in a soup of your listener questions. We're doing in your

0:47.8

queries, um, marinating in them. But we've, you know, it's been kind of like a big

0:54.2

couple of weeks around these parts. And so we love doing listener question

0:58.1

episodes. I they're one of my favorites to do because it gets, it allows us to

1:10.4

it just allows us to like really address super specific questions in a way we

1:13.8

don't always get to in the regular episodes, um, which is really, really fun. But we've

1:17.5

also just had a lot going on behind the scenes. We have. So thank you so much to

1:22.3

everyone who's been cheering us on and following along as we are growing our
