Summary
Welcome to episode two of Big Time Adulting. In this episode, I will be talking about the life-changing event that got me started into this whole journey of blogging, Instagram, and now podcasting.
In December 2016, Calum, my first-born son, at the age of three, was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. It was a tough time for us as a family, and sharing my experience with family, friends, and eventually, the public was a healing outlet for me. The ability to be so vulnerable and honest through my blog and Instagram was one of my most validating experiences as a parent, and allowed me to encounter so many like-minded people who shared similar sentiments as it pertained motherhood. Here we are at the next phase of my journey, and I can’t wait to share it with you all through this podcast.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to big time adulting the podcast. |
| 0:05.0 | I'm your host, Caitlin Murray, and I'm here to take it deep with you on adulthood, womanhood, motherhood, and whatever other things end in hood that we can think of. |
| 0:15.0 | It's going to be real, it's going to be honest, and we are going to laugh until a little pee comes out. |
| 0:21.8 | If you've been looking to find a podcast to relate to as a woman and a mom and you're kind of |
| 0:26.6 | awesome, which you definitely are, subscribe now. |
| 0:35.3 | Hi guys, here we are on episode two, episode dose. I can't believe we're really doing this podcast thing now. Can you? I know. Anyway, this is actually like episode one since the first episode was just a brief description of the basis of the podcast, |
| 0:57.3 | but it makes me feel a little more accomplished to say I'm already on episode two. So that's |
| 1:03.2 | what we're going to do. Anywho, on episode one, I mentioned I would describe a little bit more |
| 1:09.0 | about myself, which is useful, since I'm like a |
| 1:12.3 | no-name person, unlike some other popular podcast hosts who I love, like Dax Shepherd from |
| 1:20.0 | Armchair Expert or Bray Brown from Unlocking Us or Sean Hayes, Will Arnett, Jason Bateman from that |
| 1:27.0 | podcast Smartless. Those guys are so funny. |
| 1:31.7 | But I feel like saying the names of these kind of podcast giants and now hosting a podcast |
| 1:37.7 | myself feels intimidating because, you know, I have no background in, like, entertainment. |
| 1:45.6 | You know, I did star in a couple of my high school theater productions, but no star on the |
| 1:54.2 | Hollywood Walk of Fame quite yet. I also have no advanced degrees. I did once complete a defensive driving course to lower my insurance |
| 2:05.9 | after beating and getting too many points on my driver's license. But that doesn't really |
| 2:11.8 | qualify me to say anything outside of, you know, don't speed. So basically, what I'm saying is take everything |
| 2:20.0 | you hear me say here with a fucking grain of salt, okay? I'm just going to be spewing some shit |
| 2:25.6 | from time to time. However, despite my lack of qualifications or notoriety, I do have a personal story. And a lot of the time this podcast is |
| 2:37.5 | going to be doing just that, highlighting, you know, an unusual, an exceptional, inspirational, |
| 2:43.5 | or even just like a really funny story of real normal people, maybe somebody who I know from |
