  • Parenting Hot Takes and Misaligned Star Charts
    Apr 2 2025

    Send a message to the pod!

    We jump right into the Chapel Roan controversy, offering nuanced perspectives on her viral parenting comments while sharing our own experiences as content creators balancing family life and work. They explore how cultural context and systemic failures make parenting harder than it needs to be, not the children themselves. Join us as we:

    • Discus greenhouse dreams and how life's priorities shift when raising young children
    • Examine family planning and the realities of pregnancy versus postpartum experiences
    • Break down the Chapel Roan controversy and why her comments about friends with children "being in hell" resonated
    • Share our spring break without childcare and how we managed expectations
    • Offer hot takes on parenting, including why parenting itself isn't inherently difficult but lacks proper support systems
    • Challenge the idea that love between parents and children should be equally unconditional
    • Laugh about their astrological incompatibility despite our long term relationship

    Join our Patreon to be the first to hear baby news and updates as we head into our brief break before welcoming our third child!
