I used to really love this podcast, especially when it focused on the everyday realities of parenthood. It felt honest, relatable, and genuinely reflective of normal life.
Over time, though, something has shifted. As the show has grown, it feels less authentic and more curated. The conversations don’t land the same way they used to, and I find myself missing that original, grounded tone.
I also wanted to share some discomfort around the discussion of your children’s ADHD and dyslexia diagnoses. I think it’s wonderful that you’re creating an environment where there’s no shame—truly, that’s great parenting. But as someone with ADHD myself, I personally wouldn’t feel comfortable having that shared about me publicly. It raises questions about how to balance openness with respecting your children’s privacy, and at the moment, it doesn’t feel quite right.
Lastly, I’ve found that some of the takes on bigger or “hot button” topics come across as a bit performative. It can feel like opinions are shaped by what’s circulating online, rather than giving a clear sense of your genuine perspectives.
I say all of this as someone who really did enjoy the show and hopes it can return to what made it so engaging in the first place.
