When I was single and getting into dating, I remember being so intimidated by sharing

0:08.4

that I had kids and like, what does that even look like? And I played with these conversations

0:13.1

in my mind over and over again. Because in my head, I didn't ever want to come across as I came

0:19.2

as like a package with baggage because my kids

0:22.8

are such a package deal. We are a bulk combo. You get one. You get us all. And I love that

1:20.5

Stur is where you don't have to apologize for having a crazy schedule because they get it.

1:26.1

Stir is the app designed for parents who just happen to be single.

1:30.7

And right now you can download Stur or tell your single friends to try it out.

1:40.7
