Genuine
I’m a new listener, but this podcast is so refreshing. I always try to find healthy examples of female friendship, and this podcast fits the bill. They discuss topics that are relatable for people in all walks of life, and they have good banter to keep it entertaining. I hope the podcast keeps growing!
Motherhood
I agree with you completely about feeling like my life stayed the same. My husband works full-time and I stay home. I have 2 kids 19 months apart. Some days are easy and some days are hard. I absolutely love them so much. I have to let myself morn my old self.
Thank you for the podcast!
