In this week's episode, I dive into the ration of BS surrounding the holiday season that we encounter as parents as well as the added stress of navigating family dynamics, and our ultimate goal of making the holidays special for our little ones and why we go to such great lengths.
This episode topic was the winner of a contest I did on Instagram, and the listener who suggested it received a handwritten note on it in the mail from yours truly - a highly coveted prize, I know.

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. |
0:35.1 | Hi friends. What up, you ho-ho-hoes? Today's episode is a result of a little podcast topic |
0:42.3 | contest I did on Instagram where I promised a handwritten note with a Sesame Street stamp on it to |

1:07.9 | but that wasn't the winner. The first place winner of the contest was |
1:12.1 | somebody who asked to talk about drum roll please, balancing holiday expectations versus reality. |

1:35.4 | and throw it right out the fucking window because I don't know about you, but I'm pretty |
1:39.9 | incapable of balance at this point in my life. Like even my whole approach to balance is kind of |
1:46.1 | extreme, which is like I live my life 80% of the time healthy and 20% of the time unhealthy. So say like |
1:54.5 | five days of the week, I keep it all in between the lines. But like one or two days out of the |
1:59.3 | week, I'm going to end up probably getting a little |
2:01.7 | tipsy and eating like I'm at an all-day buffet. Like, sorry, not sorry. I'm just being dead dog |
2:06.7 | honest here with everyone. But, you know, if I were just a moderate type of human in general, |
