  • Slow mornings for everyone!

    I loved Desirae’s practical tips for creating slow mornings — It reminded me of when I was a brand-new mom living in Alaska. Winters there are no joke — way too cold for a one-year-old to be outside for months on end. Without even realizing it, I was practicing slow living before it was “a thing” — just me, my baby, and a whole lot of presence.

    Fast forward to now: my kids are 16, 13, and 10. Seasons have changed, but breakfast together has become our “slow moment.” It’s the one part of the day... more

  • A lovely listen!

    Of all the decluttering podcasts this is my fave! Truly love the insight and advice from Desiree and how candid she is about her real life. Just listened to the most recent episode and it’s more religious then I care for so skipped it but can’t wait for the next one and hope she gets back to sharing about the monthly goals that started off the year!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

297: Body Image, Social Media and How to Build Confidence in Our Kids with Erin Washington
Q: What role does representation play in a child's confidence, and how can parents leverage it?
Representation validates a child's sense of possibility. Show them diverse role models in media and real life, expose them to stories and images that reflect who they are, and celebrate individuality rather than conformity.
297: Body Image, Social Media and How to Build Confidence in Our Kids with Erin Washington
Q: How can parents address social media's impact without completely cutting kids off from technology?
Teach that social media highlights are often curated and not reflective of real life. Encourage mentors, provide balanced screen time, and help kids curate who they follow to reduce negative influences while still staying connected.
297: Body Image, Social Media and How to Build Confidence in Our Kids with Erin Washington
Q: What would you tell a parent who wants to help their child with body image but isn't sure where to start?
Start by reframing how you talk about body and food and focus on inner qualities like kindness and intelligence. Also, model healthy behavior—eat when hungry, listen to fullness cues, and avoid labeling foods as 'bad' or 'good.'
291: Simplifying Showing Up and Going Deeper in Our Friendships with Ashlee Gadd (Making Friends as an Adult Part 2)
Q: Where can listeners find your new book and what was the motivation behind writing it?
Ashlee notes the book is available at major retailers and explains the long journey from idea to publication, highlighting timing and intent behind sharing a message about friendship.
291: Simplifying Showing Up and Going Deeper in Our Friendships with Ashlee Gadd (Making Friends as an Adult Part 2)
Q: What's a simple framework for being a good friend when someone is going through a tough time?
She shares the 'multiple choice' approach—offering a few concrete options (dinner, child care, errands) that remove decision fatigue and show up with skin-on-love, not vague promises.
