I'm talking with author Melanie Shankle on raising teenagers, finding our own sense of self as a mom, and being in the weird middle place of life. You can find Melanie's book here, and my book here.   . . .

Christine and I are talking about how to parent smarter, not harder. We both have shared values that parenting is often easier when we simplify, and that there are benefits to our kids when we let ourselves off the hook, too. Christine is the co-author of the book Minimalist Parenting. You can find that here and Rage Against the Minivan here.      . . .

Greta and I are talking about how to make the space to connect with your kids, and the beauty of boredom. You can find Greta Eskridge's book Adventuring Together: How to Create Connections and Make Lasting Memories with Your Kids here, and my book here. . . .

I'm absolutely giddy to be talking with one of my favorite authors. R. Eric Thomas and I are talking about the weird world of writing on the internet, finding the balance between writing about humor and pop culture and also writing about social justice issues, and of course . . . our mutual love of the theater. This episode was recorded a few weeks ago, and as we discussed how we've tried to engage people on issues of racial justice, little did we know it would soon be a national conversation. . . .
