Parenting Through Chaos: Navigating Sick Days, Overstimulation, and Invisible Work

  • Summary

  • In today's episode we discuss how life has been completely off the rails and how difficult it is when your kids are off sick and you still have to somehow manage everything. We get into some "Good Biological Developments" and talk about how overstimulating it can be to be a parent, especially when you're the 'go to' parent.

    Carly discusses how she feels like she needs a princess diaries style makeover and Matthew talks about how inadequate he feels in the gym. We've started reading the book Fair Play and we talk about how we are tackling our mental load and invisible work problems at home.
