PARENTING OUT LOUD: Grandparents — It's Time for Your Performance Review

Big news, friends. Jessie Stephens and Amelia Lester are bringing a whole new vibe to parenting podcasts with this brand new mini series: Parenting Out Loud.

If you're deep in the trenches, Parenting Out Loud will help make your world feel just that little bit bigger with the week's hot topics explored, examined and digested. Because if parents are thinking about it, we're talking about it.

On this week's episode, grandparents get a long overdue performance review, we unpack the article that stopped us in our tracks, take a deep dive into Mormon Wives (and mothers), and investigate the playroom that got Amelia all riled up.

Plus, recommendations: A fool-proof recipe, a genius toy to get kids off screens and a book that shines a light on sibling relationships.

Come join the conversation. New eps drop Saturdays. No shoulder spit-ups required.

Recommendations

Jessie wants you to bake these oat bars AND recommends the toy, Tonies.

Amelia wants you to read Intermezzo by Sally Rooney.

THE END BITS:
