The House is Never Clean, But That's Okay!

Parenting Globally: Challenges We All Face (Featuring Justin Wade)

This week, we sit down with a dad navigating the unique challenges of parenting from across the globe. From relying on scheduled phone calls to reconnecting at home and figuring out discipline from a distance, being away adds a whole new layer of complexity to parenting. We talk honestly about the struggles, the guilt, and the effort it takes to stay present when you can’t always be there.

The House is Never Clean, But That's Okay!

This week, we’re talking about the never-ending battle for a clean house — and losing. Between constant crumbs, bottomless appetites, and toys that magically respawn, it feels like we’re living in a sitcom with no commercial breaks. Join us as we laugh through the mess, swap survival tips, and admit that sometimes, a lived-in house is a happy one.

The Youtube Babysitter

In this episode, we dive into the wild world of screen time — the lifesaver, the babysitter, and the headache all rolled into one. We talk about the positives (hello, five minutes of peace), the struggles (cue the meltdowns when the tablet dies), and how we try to find that elusive balance between raising happy kids and not losing our sanity. Spoiler: we don’t always get it right.

They Got It from Us

In this episode, we vent about parenting pet peeves, surviving toddler wrestling matches, and the weird (and sometimes terrifying) moment you realize your kid inherited your quirks. We're just two parents trying to do our best — even if our mini-mes are out here exposing us daily.

Props to Stay at Home Parents!

"This episode is brought to you by tantrums over potatoes and fashion meltdowns over pink socks. We’re talking food fights (the verbal kind), outfit standoffs, and sending love to the real MVPs — stay-at-home parents. Because let’s face it: raising kids is chaos, and finding time for yourself and your partner feels like unlocking a secret level in a video game."
