What if the picture you're painting about adulthood is making your kids dread growing up? An Instagram post from another mom who talked about choosing to see her responsibilities as privileges, not burdens, stopped me in my tracks and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since.
Adulting IS hard. There are so many responsibilities, decisions, and things that we have to do. And how many times have our kids heard us complain about how exhausted we are by all of it?
In this episode, I talk about my commitment to sharing not just the challenges of adulting, but the highs, the good times, the perks, and privileges too. I don't want my kids to be in a rush to grow up. I'm certainly not ready for them to. But I know that it'll happen eventually, and I don't want them to dread it.

Working moms today spend more time with their kids than stay-at-home moms did a generation ago, while men's time on housework has barely changed. No wonder so many of us are exhausted.
From now until the end of the year we add a whole second list on top of everything else and just expect that we'll somehow fit it all in. It's no wonder working moms feel exhausted by the new year!
What if the fight about the dishwasher was never about the dishwasher? Working motherhood is hard, and when you're carrying more than your fair share of the mental load, it's easy to say "I feel like I'm doing everything and you're doing nothing," an argument you've had many times before.
If you've ever tried time blocking and thought "this doesn't work for me", this episode is for you.
Working motherhood is hard, and most of us believe that if we just got through the list, we'd finally feel calm. But what if your to-do list isn't the reason you feel overwhelmed?
