Emma Grede Start with Yourself - Rich Mom Poor Mom Perspective

Rich Mom Poor Mom on Emma Grede: Success, Motherhood, Remote Work, and Taking FeedbackOn Rich Mom Poor Mom, Precious and Jamelle discuss Emma Grede, a $400 million net worth entrepreneur behind SKIMS and Good American, and react to her book Start With Yourself and viral interviews. They frame her message as explaining how to succeed within the current system rather than offering a revolution, and argue that women often miss unspoken rules because people avoid giving honest feedback, creating what Grede calls “lying to women.” They cover five points: Grede being a “max three-hour mom” with significant paid support, her claim that remote work can limit women’s career advancement due to reduced visibility, the need for women to talk openly about money and deal terms, the “employee mindset” of seeking a boss even when leading, and the importance of calibration through feedback and corrective action. They invite listener reactions and recommend the book. richmompoormom.pod@gmail.com00:00 Who Is Emma Grede01:14 Meet The Hosts02:30 Survival Versus Resistance07:20 Five Points Overview08:36 Max Three Hour Mom16:08 Help And Nannies Context17:39 Peep Game For Minorities23:15 Remote Work Career Killer30:33 Flexibility Privilege Debate34:03 Work From Home Unseriousness39:25 Back To Emma Grede Point41:20 Childcare Over Remote Work42:00 AI Threat To Desk Jobs43:26 Women Talking Money51:40 Stop Burying The Numbers54:38 Employee Mindset Trap01:03:21 Rich Husband Reality Check01:09:14 Calibration Through Feedback01:14:09 Taking And Filtering Advice01:21:04 Wrap Up And Next Steps This is a public episode.

Keeping up with IG Parents - Social Pressure Parenting Edition

Millennial Parenting Pressure, Social Media, and Keeping Up With the JonesesIn this episode of “Rich Mom, Poor Mom,” Precious (a St. Louis real estate professional) and Jamel (a Harvard PhD working in tech in Atlanta) discuss how social pressure shapes modern parenting, especially for millennials who feel pushed to be “perfect” so their kids won’t need therapy. They compare in-person judgment and social-media-driven standards, citing surveys on impulse buying, debt, buy-now-pay-later, and research linking rising child costs to competitive parenting. They share personal stories about feeling pressured by curated parenting content (toddlers reading, breastfeeding “overproduction,” fitness) and luxury baby gear, including Jamel’s near-purchase of a pricey Doona-style stroller due to both function and status. Precious recounts a stressful first chaperone field trip and concerns about kids’ peer influences. They answer a listener letter from an Atlanta mom earning $35K about graduation-party pressure, emphasizing values, community support, and limiting social media.00:00 Millennial Parenting Pressure00:55 Show Intro And Hosts01:13 Judgment In Public Parenting02:59 Online Parenting Critique03:50 Values Behind Judgment05:50 Kids And Money Beliefs08:45 Therapy Generation Anxiety12:19 Keeping Up Data Dive15:17 Influencers Raise The Bar19:23 Breastfeeding Content Pressure24:42 Algorithm And Inadequacy26:01 Story Time Luxury Strollers28:31 Doona Temptation And Resale37:05 Atlanta Status Pressure40:00 Precious Field Trip Chaperone41:23 Late Chaperone Panic42:37 Lunch Prep Pressure45:00 Chick-fil-A Detour46:41 Parking and Sprinting48:06 Two Kids Only48:46 Talkative Kid Trauma50:53 Social Media Mom Standards53:56 Field Trip Aftermath55:15 Grace for Parents56:38 Kids Need Responsibilities01:00:33 Listener Letter Soft Life01:02:46 Values Over Aesthetics01:12:09 Digital Health Boundaries01:15:11 Gratitude and Wrap Up Subscribe to the podcast page [https://jamellewd.substack.com/s/rich-mom-poor-mom-podcast] and send us an email at RichMomPoorMom.Pod@gmail.com to join the conversation!

friendship as parents: come outside and defend your honor! -Part 2

Building (and Losing) the Village: Friendship, Motherhood, and ConflictIn this “Rich Mom, Poor Mom” part-two episode, hosts Precious (a St. Louis real estate professional) and Jamelle (a Harvard PhD in tech in Atlanta) discuss a listener letter from Kaya, a Boston-area mom earning $50,000, who regrets how she handled a friendship breakup with a longtime friend who became a young mother. They debate whether people are taught to be “villagers,” arguing that village support requires inconvenience and sustained, imbalanced giving, which clashes with modern convenience culture. They connect weak village ties to ghosting, blocking, and avoidance of conflict, contrasting it with earlier norms of direct confrontation and moving on. They emphasize grace for new parents for at least the first couple years, discourage airing grievances during pregnancy or early postpartum, and suggest persistent check-ins and clearer, cordial friendship transitions rather than abrupt cutoffs.00:00 Texting Through Conflict00:10 Old School Fight Rules00:52 Meet the Hosts01:22 Kaya’s Friendship Breakup03:37 Learning to Be a Villager08:04 Convenience Kills Community12:46 When Nobody Shows Up18:05 Weddings and Village Signals23:32 Different Life Phases30:33 Healthy Friendship Breakups34:09 Calling It Early in Love37:09 Friendship Breakup Voice Note39:46 Was It Really Weird41:04 Classy Shade And Gossip42:28 Slow Fade Versus Direct45:23 Blocking And Conflict Avoidance48:18 Old School Conflict Lessons52:26 Fight For Your Friendships01:01:15 Showing Up For New Parents01:07:21 Motherhood Is Sacred01:11:34 Listener Segment Wrap UpPlease comment what you think!

friendship as parents: seeking deeper connections-Part 1

Precious and Jamelle of “Rich Mom, Poor Mom” discuss how parenthood reshapes friendship, including shyness, rejection sensitivity, and the pressure to “curate” social time instead of experiencing everyday life together. Jamelle argues many women avoid initiating or committing to friendships and grieves the loneliness of mismatched effort, while Precious describes withdrawing postpartum out of anxiety and protectiveness, then struggling to reconnect. They reference data on parental loneliness, selectivity in friendships, and how parents’ social conflict can affect children. Jamelle shares a friendship breakup with a successful mom whose classist comments and mean-girl behavior escalated into public boundary violations and social exclusion. Both emphasize modeling consistent “showing up” for kids and value low-pressure, honest connection like FaceTiming or bringing kids over without entertaining. 00:00 Real Life Hangouts 01:16 Parent Friendship Fears 05:32 Rejection And Overthinking 07:35 Friendship Feels Like Dating 14:22 Raising The Friendship Bar 18:59 Loneliness By The Numbers 20:14 Modeling Social Skills 25:53 Showing Up For Friends 30:34 Storytime Friendship Breakup 42:39 Mean Girl Mom Group Fallout 44:24 Nerdy Weirdo Smear 45:23 Mean Girl Hierarchies 51:58 Rich Mom Poor Mom Story 54:06 Postpartum Boundaries Fallout 59:48 Experience Life Together 01:08:56 Show Up Friendship Test 01:13:35 Low Maintenance Myth 01:16:08 Locked In Love Stories 01:23:05 Gratitude and GoodbyePlease comment what you think!
