Summary

This week, the Mamas tackle Listener Letters on balancing romance, friendships, and managing meddling grandparents. They get real about the struggles of keeping their dating life alive — because for some, dating has left the chat! — and they share fun ideas for a cute date night (or a little afternoon delight!). The Mamas also dive into the importance of setting boundaries when grandparents are doing the MOST, and discuss the challenge of holding onto old friendships while your kids' social life forces you to befriend other moms. Thanks to the Listener Letters because this episode is packed with practical advice for moms trying to keep their relationships — and their sanity — intact. Should the Mamas get a Listener Letter hotline? Let us know and send us questions at podcasts@blacklove.com and on Instagram @themamasdenpodcast.
