    Jana Kramer on Real Motherhood, Infidelity, Faith and fighting The Good Fight

    Only rarely do you find a woman who is so open and honest about their struggles in an effort to make it easier for the next woman. Jana and her husband Mike have been through their fair share of ups and downs, and unlike those of us who want to suffocate their husband with a pillow while they sleep but then post a gushy lovey #husbandgoals! Instagram the next morning - Jana and Mike keep it real. I read Jana and Mike’s book The Good Fight and felt like I had been on a cleansing couple’s therapy retreat. In one of the first pages Jana mentions that when she first met Mike she wondered what in the world they would ever fight about - they were so in love and life was perfect. As any of us in a marriage or any partnership know - there is a honeymoon phase and then reality sets in. Life happens. Shit goes down and stress levels go up. To maintain a marriage you have to work at it every single day. There are good days and there are bad days. There are days when every little thing makes you want to slap the person upside the head and there are days where you’re overflowing with gratitude that God led you to this person. Jana says people are so quick to “eject” from a relationship these days, but unless you own your part in the trouble, then your next relationship will be the same story - just with a different cast of characters. This isn’t to say if you split ✂️ it’s wrong or you’ve failed - not at all - I think there are many cases where leaving is the move - I also think we live in a grass is greener / shiny object chasing society and taking a good look in the mirror and a healthy dose of empathy can do any couple good. We all read tabloids and think and judge and create ill informed-opinions, and that sucks for people in the spotlight (who are human beings... with feelings...FYI) but for the record - it is admirable and refreshing that after everything this couple has suffered through, they are CHOOSING to day in and day out work on themselves, learn about their partner, better their relationship and fighting The Good Fight.

    That's Inappropriate Founder Meredith Masony on Mommy Martyrdom, Pandemic Parenting and Giving no F&%$s

    Meredith Masony is the founder of the wildly popular mommy blog "That's Inappropriate". The Mom of 3 is an unfiltered, ridiculously hilarious YouTube/social media star who just released a new book, "Ask Me What's for Dinner One More Time." I NEVER read comedy books - I am strictly a self-help, murder-mystery person, but I flew through this book so fast. Meredith had me in stitches laughing (and then I cried towards the end and woke my son up from his nap just to hug him - so, clearly this book is powerful). During our chat we talk about mommy martyrdom, pandemic parenting, the cancer scare that changed her perspective on just about everything, marriage and not caring what anyone thinks about how you do you. Check Meredith out on Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and go get her book, hide from your kids, pour a glass of whatever you want and laugh your ass off.
