This week we’re talking meltdowns at Build-A-Bear, summer ‘homeschooling’ and why handing your toddler a sponge might actually be more life-changing than giving them another sticker chart.

We’re diving into what Harvard says is the actual secret to raising confident kids—While getting real about the messiness of teaching independence, the emotional rollercoaster that is raising small humans, and why sometimes your greatest parenting win is simply not losing it in public.

So grab your coffee (that’s probably been microwaved three times), take a deep breath, and come laugh with us as we talk confidence, chaos, intentions, and why motherhood is somehow the hardest—and funniest—job we’ve ever loved. Enjoy!
