Hi, I'm Zibi Owens, and you're listening to the award-winning podcast.

Moms don't have time to read books.

Today's episode has been sponsored by pediatrician in your pocket at doctor-dash-gen.com.

Dr. Jennifer Tractenberg is a mother of three and a 20 plus year

pediatrician board certified who has called all of her amazing advice and made a series of five-minute
