    Ep. 204: The Parent's Play

    In this episode, we discuss the themes of connection, vulnerability, and the role of play in personal growth and parenting. We explore our personal experiences with play, how it intersects with authenticity, and the importance of curiosity in fostering a playful mindset. We discuss the definitions of play, its significance in child development, and how play can serve as a tool for connection and emotional safety. We reflect on the evolution of play in adulthood and the ways in which it can be integrated into everyday life, emphasizing the need for authenticity and self-trust in the process.

    Ep 105: Real-Time Rupture & Repair

    In this episode, the Trinket became the topic as we recounted a novel and fresh rupture and repair moment between us. We talk about how we navigated it ourselves and, of course, tied it back to the rupture and repair process in parenting as well.
