In this repeat episode we dive into boundaries. When it comes to an online presence with our kids, we have boundaries and they are very clear. We won't bad mouth our kids.

Be Your Own Weird Self 31:09

11d ago31:09

31:09

Confidence starts at such a young age. We don't put enough weight into the conversation so that as they age, they don't lose that. We are trying to catch up as adults rather than protect them when they are young. Teach them how to navigate friendships when the fck up. Friends won't always agree with you.

How To Ruin a Kids Confidence 31:50

1M ago31:50

31:50

Your kids place so much value on your opinion of them when they are younger. You are the only person they trust 100%. They want to please you and make you happy.

We Are Talking Weight Loss 32:41

2M ago32:41

32:41

When did one person's weight loss become everyone's business? It's putting women in a position where they have to defend themselves. It's not fair. Shouldn't we be saying to Oprah or Kelly Clarkson (or any woman, for that matter) congratulations? Not "What did you do?" or implying that they sold out by taking a drug that is available on the market.…

A Nooner 30:20

When your kids get older and they are out of the house, and now there is all of this free time, does that mean you have to have day sex? We are so used to finite times for sex.

38:32

We've had a lot of conversations about sex but in this repeat episode we've never really talked about it from the perspective of a woman, often it's from that of the man.
