Welcome, Pod Squad Squad. Thanks for coming back to We Can Do Hard Things.

0:14.8

We have what I think is an exciting episode for you today,

0:19.6

and it is all around parenting. And if you are a person who now is thinking that this isn't

0:26.8

about you because you are not a parent, I want you to understand that when I say parenting, I mean something that is very wide and very deep and that applies to every single one of us because even if we are people who do not have little beings in our
