Love it
Real moms having real conversations about babies, kids, relationships, time management and self care. Keep em coming!
Episode 36: Making friends as an adult
I identified so much with episode 36, which is about making friends as an adult. Mary Catherine and Sarah are smart, thoughtful, funny… And so honest!! They have a great dynamic and I genuinely enjoyed hearing Sarah’s “pick up lines” when on the prowl for a new best friend :) Hilarious! I will take these suggestions to heart. Close friendships matter so much and like these two, I’m finding it harder and harder to make new friends from scratch now that I’m in the work force.
Great Podcast for Guys Too
Just wanted to say Mary Catherine and Ben’s podcast is one of my favorites. My wife was the first listener and I have become a huge fan myself. I love the discussions and the fun topics that come up. If there are any wives out there listening, send this one along to your husbands, it is a treat and very relatable. I often find myself laughing out loud when topics align with our lives out here in CA, from buying a house to trips vs vacations. Lots of gems.
