Lisa Weinbaum: Three Simple Rules
Find the topics we covered, the links to the things we talked about, and more
We are continuing our look back into the archive with an episode from a year ago with the inimitable Lisa Weinbaum. A discussion that started on the pod - reconnecting with someone I always looked up to as a kid - and hasn’t stopped yet. Since recording that original episode, Lisa and I have volunteered at her beloved Baby2Baby together. We have hung out by the beach forging a new connection in adulthood, and have not stopped texting - the true love language of our time. This curated re-release is a bit more produced than the last one - I’ve broken it into themes: the job description of stay at home parent, the emotional and financial dynamics involved in partnership where one person works in the home and one outside, how to streamline the goals of parenting, parenting while grieving, and drilling down into the importance of sleep away summer camp. Let me know what you think in the comments or on IG.

MUTHA LIFE MERCH: put some pep in your schlep:
Go get yourself some cuteeee shit. While our BIRTH ORDER hats remain a big hit, we’ve added two new bangers to the lineup. Do you have a MOTY or FOTY in your life? Now is the time to let them know you know they’re the GOAT. Not in with the acronyms but want to be? We are talking about MOTHER OF THE YEAR and FATHER OF THE YEAR…because waking up and loving your kids every day is how you gain the title. Burn the toast? Late to drop off or pickup? Don’t cut the apple the right way? You’re still MOTY/FOTY in my book, babe.
