Episode #9: Join us as we navigate the turbulent waters of life's unexpected trials, beginning with the tale of Abby's husband Sam Querrey's Achilles injury during a pickleball tournament. The conversation uncovers the gritty details of the incident, the fortuitous presence of his former physiotherapist, and the journey ahead: from surgery to hopeful recovery. We reflect on the impact this has on our family dynamics and the resilience needed to overcome such a personal setback.
Listen in as Abby and Kimberly explore the humorous and challenging aspects of caregiving within our personal lives. We share anecdotes that reveal the stark contrast between natural caregivers and those who find themselves out of their depth when thrust into a nurturing role. Whether it's maneuvering around the needs of a tall, incapacitated partner or reminiscing about caring for our elders, we bring to light the universal nature of these experiences, peppered with laughter and the shared understanding of our community.
We round off our discussion with the daily challenges and joys of parenting. From instilling respect and discipline in our children through martial arts lessons with Mr. B, to the chaos of managing a household when your spouse is out of commission, we cover it all. Parenting chatter blends with tales of tennis and karate, highlighting the need for balance and structure in our children's lives. As we conclude this episode, a heartfelt appreciation is extended to our team and listeners, promising to continue delivering engaging content, despite life's unexpected twists.
